Merz is actually busy playing good poodle with Mister Trump. If you’re exoecting any bit of morale ethics or decent human behaviour from the 2m of useless vertical growth that is our chancellor, you’re hopelessly optimistic.

Here in Berlin it’s more the lone hipster standing in the middle of the lane gazing at all the “enhanced” healthy, hand-plucked, organic wyrøbylberry-llama-chocolade bars (lactose free), deciding which one to take and not giving a fuck abut blocking the whole lane because he’s really, really taking care of his health. This will go on for about twenty minutes until his girlfriend joins the discussion and has not ended yet. They are still -aggeession-freely- discussing their food choices in the lane at cashier #2 at EDEKA, Rigaer Strasse, corner Voigtstrasse in Friedrichshain. The BV will put the matter on the TOP next month at their general assembly.

Hm. I don’t know that “god”, but he sure has weird friends.

“The assaults against Iran are in clear violation of international law.” Conservative politician Norbert Röttgen said, “but that can’t be the only argument dealing with a regime oppressing it’s own people”.

So international law is now officially no longer binding if you’re on the “right side”. What a spineless, opportunistic, double talking hypocrite. And he’s not the only one.

That implicated with bombing cities. What the fuck do people expect to happen if you’re throwing a couple tons of explosives on densely inhabited urban areas?

Even by Trump’s standards it seems quite unhinged, indeed. Sounds bat shit crazy, tbh.

WE SEE EVERYTHING!

WE HEAR EVERYTHING!

WE KNOW EVERYTHING!

Because you’re an Austrian asset and an infiltrator.

Ever heard of non-binary algos, you bigot?

Hundreds of FBI staff are focused on the issue – and multiple indictments have been brought against individuals linked to Beijing accused of espionage in the US – but investigators are “out-resourced by China in many areas,” he said.

…he said, concluding three paraphrases about how many, many Chinese agents are virtually everywhere. And to answer you second question, “we guys” are coming up with this crap by actually reading articles instead of just trolling around after taking a short look at the headlines.

Unless you’re finding the (not too) subtle “we need more police and intelligence because the Chinese are outnumberung us” spin in the article.

That’s not contradicting to what I’ve written. You’re free to like any guitar over any other, just don’t expect them all to sound like the one you have.

WTF is option 1 even supposed to be? Looks like a device producing extremely much engine noise to me.

Different guitars are meant to sound different. If you want a backup guitar that sounds like your primary then get at least the same model/type or something that has the same pickups and wiring. If you’re intending to buy guitars by the looks and expecting them to sound all the same, nobody can help you and nobody will because we all want a strat to sound like a strat and an SG like an SG. A world where every guitar in the world would sound exactly like some noob’s only LTD that he likes so much because he never played anything else might be a plot for a small niche horror movie of very limited entertainment potential at best.

All fine then. Next time I’ll vote for an AI. At least they know how to use nuclear weapons correctly.

I don’t think it needed the active support of the government to motivate a bunch of exile Cubans, but Trumps new aggression against Cuba certainly helped. It hardly is just coincidence that it happemed right now.

HN = Hacker News in this context, just in case anyone else wonders.

Kann sein, hat aber eigentlich nichts mit dem Upload von Adressbüchern zu tun. Da geht es ja gerade um die Daten von Leuten ohne Facebook-Account, aber mit Bekannten oder Verwandten, in deren hochgeladenen Adressbüchern sie zu finden waren. Ich kann mir allerdings vorstellen, dass FB sich dabei darauf berufen haben, sie selbst hätten ja gar keien Datenschutzvertstoss begangen, sondern die Nutzer. Das war allerdings damals schon vollkommen unglaubwürdig, weil FB nicht darauf hingewiesen haben, dass dafür das Einverständnis der tatsächlichen Inhaber der Daten notwendig wäre und auch noch aggressiv und mit üblen Tricks versucht hat, Nutzer zum bewusst illegalen Upload zu drängen.Ich kann mich dessen recht gut erinnern, weil ich das zum Anlass genommen habe, meinen FB-Account zu löschen.

Ich habe mich seit jeher gefragt, wie das überhaupt jemals legal sein könnte. Stellt sich heraus, es war schon immer illegal, nur hat sich bislang niemand darum geschert. Von wegen “das Internet darf kein straffreier Raum bla, bla, und so weiter”. Darf es schon, aber eben nur für bestimmte Kreise. Nicht für den Pöbel und erst recht nicht um ungestraft die Obrigkeit zu kritisieren…

I’d more likely expect somebody sitting on his ass 5m behind the place where he was when pulling the trigger looking stupid and holding his forearm. I’ve seen smartasses firing regular machine guns like this. No matter how strong you think you are - It just doesn’t work.
