  • Das Bußgeld scheint vor allem wegen des fehlenden Eintrags in das Lobbyregister zu drohen und ist in der Höhe natürlich lächerlich niedrig. Gerade weil der Betrag im Vergleich zum Korruptionspotenzial so gering ist, würde ich mir aber wünschen, dass der Fall in der Presse noch viel mehr ausgebreitet und klar gestellt wird, dass es hier wirklich nicht um die 50k geht sondern um die hemmungslose Dreistigkeit, mit der eine Ministerin aktiv Politik für die reichsten 0,1% macht und dem Staat Einnahmeverluste verursacht, für die die restlichen 99,9% aufkommen müssen. Wir reden so viel über “Sozialleistungen müssen vom Volk erst erwirtschaftet werden” dass ich es nicht mehr hören kann und dann fliegen die Sozialleistungen für Milliardäre dermaßen unter dem Radar.


  • At least Nvim allows me to turn that shit off, select a plugin that matches my preferences, or program a keyboard shortcut to toggle rendering on and off. The MS Editor just unilaterally decides that your file should now end in .md, because it contains what MS considers markdown formatting, as if there’s no way a plain text file could contain lines beginning with # (although, granted, you have to press one of the formatting buttons first, before the editor switches to “markdown mode” and starts behaving that way).





  • I don’t play/watch horror games, but I like watching ChristopherOdd, and he seems to have a LP series for RE9. He does some commentary on the gameplay but without talking over cut-scenes and such. His LPs are typically not completionist by any means, but he takes an appropriate amount of time exploring and pursuing the story.

    Edit: You can find him on YT. Most of his LPs are live commentary with minimal editing rather than recorded live streams, which I typically prefer (ymmv).










  • I don’t even think many people will disagree with that. The appealing thing about Star Trek was always the utopia, the idealism, the philosophical questions, and (in some cases) the sciency details. Most attempts to make Star Trek into some kind of uber-galactic-struggle-between-alien-races or quest-to-avoid-the-destruction-of-the-universe that were the focus of many later sci-fi shows ended up making it worse.

    As fully fledged sci-fi universes that were explicitly written with these “big” stories in mind, Mass Effect or The Expanse are clearly ahead.
