McDonald’s will stop testing AI to take drive-thru orders, for now
  • They just display a tiny bit of text and images, they should switch between screens at 60fps, not 2s per click.

    I think this is intentional. They want you to take time looking at the pictures so you might think "you know what, actually I'd like some of those fries as well" by making it hard to just quickly select what you want and leave.

    I wouldn't even be surprised if there's a psychological effect where you feel like ordering more makes this tedious ordering process more worthy. I mean why go through 2 minutes of clicking and waiting just for one stupid cheeseburger.

  • A fresh install of Signal takes up 410MB, blowing both Firefox and Chromium out of the water
  • And anytime you clicked on a link or image in the chat, you'll have to click into the message field again (or press Ctrl+t) to be able to type a reply. I don't understand how this absolutely infuriating thing hasn't been fixed in years. Is nobody bothered by this? I want to be able to alt+tab into signal and just start typing ffs.

  • Just in case you missed it: there have been serious accusations against Till Lindemann, the singer of Rammstein, recently. Apparently his band managers contact young female Rammstein fans on social media before concerts, inviting them to secret after show parties where they get lots of alcohol and Till can choose one to drug even more and take to bed with him. Multiple women have come forward with similar claims and the social media thing has been well documented as far as I know. The case went to court but was dropped because there wasn't enough proof and now he acts like nothing ever happened. I think everyone listening to the band should know about this.

  • What's the most recurring theme/element in your nightmares?
  • For me it's having to make an emergency call and the person on the other end either just won't listen properly, ignore me, not understand me, act in a weird way, or the call has technical problems like there is no reception where I am and I have to run around forever to find signal or a different phone.

    I have no idea where that comes from, I've never even made an emergency call.

  • The weight of different breeds of chicken over their lifespan
  • My parents used to keep chickens in their garden. They could roam in the garden freely during the day, the coop was only closed at night to keep predators out. One day a chicken decided it would like to check out the roof of the house across the street. Now my parents' house is at a hillside so the neighbor's house was quite a bit lower but the chicken still had fly at least 3m up and probably almost 10m across the street. It sat there for quite a while and we were a bit worried it wouldn't dare to fly back down but eventually it did. Chickens are funny.

  • Dashcam footage clears man of felony charge after showing constable injuring himself
  • Ok but don't you at least have to stop and check on the injured person? I mean even if it's an accident, you're obliged to stop and help, aren't you? Is that just a Europe thing? I'm not American, but it would seem like a very basic rule to agree on.

  • Dashcam footage clears man of felony charge after showing constable injuring himself
  • Wait, wait, wait. When the video starts showing the constable, he is already holding his leg out in front of him, as if to force the driver to stop. No kicking motion can be seen in the video. So it's legal to just hit someone who is holding his leg out in front of your car (however stupid that may be), injure him seriously and then just drive away?!

  • Was sind eure Tricks, um schnell vom Arzt behandelt zu werden?
  • Leider doch. Bin seit etwa einem Jahr in der PKV und kann es kaum fassen, was ich alles an Behandlungen bekomme und in welcher Geschwindigkeit. Die Diskrepanz zwischen privat und gesetzlich ist komplett obszön.

  • www.zeit.de Asylbewerber: Landkreistag will alle Flüchtlinge zur Arbeit verpflichten

    Verbandspräsident Reinhard Sager hat sich für eine Arbeitspflicht für Asylbewerber ausgesprochen – auch in Unternehmen. Derzeit dürfen sie nur gemeinnützig arbeiten.

    Asylbewerber: Landkreistag will alle Flüchtlinge zur Arbeit verpflichten

    Ich bin ehrlich gesagt gerade ziemlich empört. Vom Arbeitsverbot also direkt zur Zwangsarbeit - bei einer Vergütung von 0,80€ pro Stunde? Kann dem Deutschen Landkreistag mal jemand die Lacklieferungen streichen?

    Leckere, günstige Hafermilch mit zugesetztem Calcium?

    Hallo zusammen, ich suche eine Hafermilch als daily driver, primär für Kaffee. Deswegen sollte sie möglichst nicht allzu dünnflüssig sein, gerne sogar eine Baristavariante. Da ich schon jeden Tag davon trinke, hätte ich ganz gerne, dass Calcium zugesetzt ist, und sehr gern dürfen auch weitere Nährstoffe und Vitamine wie D und B12 drin sein. Alpro und Oatly ist mir aber zu teuer.

    Kann da jemand was empfehlen? Würde mich sehr freuen!

    Ideen für unkomplizierte vegane Buffet-Mitbringsel?

    Ich muss demnächst für ein Buffet etwas mitbringen (Salat, Dips, Brot, irgendwas) und hab kaum Zeit (und Lust hust) etwas vorzubereiten. Kann mir jemand was Leckeres empfehlen, das in maximal 20 min zubereitet ist? Muss nicht gesund sein, nur lecker. Zielgruppe sind Omnis, also gerne auch irgendwas mit Ersatzprodukten o.ä. Bonuspunkte wenn es auch noch gut zu transportieren ist.

    Neue vegane Salami bei Aldi: extrem empfehlenswert

    Bei Aldi gibt's jetzt diese vegane Salami mit Pfefferrand. Ist, glaube ich, die salamigste vegane Salami, die ich bisher probiert habe. Gibt auch noch eine Variante mit Chili, die auch nicht schlecht ist, aber die mit Pfeffer finde ich wirklich absolut herausragend.
