Das was die Nazis veranstalten hat nichts mit Stochastik zu tun. Bei denen sind die Gewalttäter, nicht die Prediger, die treibende Kraft.

Die Entscheidung oder zumindest die Kommunikation zum CSD der Bundestagspräsidentin war absolut daneben, ich bezweifel aber mal stark dass sich irgendwelche Nazis davon haben beeinflussen haben.

Die Symbolpolitik die du suchst ist das ganz konkrete Versagen so einiger Innen- und Justizminister gegen den Hass klar Kante zu zeigen. Die Präsidentin hat zwar eine eigene Polizei die wirste aber nicht außerhalb des Bundestages finden. Den Nazis geht das am Arsch vorbei was im Bundestag passiert, das kriegen die noch nicht mal mit. Die kriegen mit ob irgendwo ein Kamerad wegen einfacher Körperverletzung oder das gleiche aber in Verbindung mit §46 StGB verknackt wird. Das sind materielle Symbole.

Ich frag' mich gerade wo do den Widerspruch zwischen dem verlinkten und deinem Post siehst. Ist auch kein Widerspruch zum verlinktem OP, nur halt etwas Nuance: Ja, man kann mehrere Dinge gleichzeitig tun, ja, man kann sich aber auch über Symbolpolitik aufregen, wenn eben nicht beides gemacht wird. Und Nazis gibt's übrigens auch nicht weniger wenn die Mieten unbezahlbar sind.

Hey I wanted to make that post. Tomorrow. With sprats.

Frisian and Low Saxon should be practically the same to English speakers, Frisian being more closely related to English is more of a technical thing than a practical one: In practice English uses a gigantic amount of Romance words and is not mutually intelligible with either, while Low Saxon and Frisian do have a decent amount of mutual intelligibility... you can always cherrypick something mutually intelligible, of course, but knowing Low Saxon Frisian is easy to wrap your head around once you decode the accent. Difference like RP vs. Scots I'd say.

Here’s the video; it’s pretty entertaining if you’re into languages.

Bujen? I don't speak West Frisian but dictionaries spit out keapje. Kuupe for North Frisian (mainland), in Low Saxon it's kö­pen or kopen. Half of the difference there is spelling the other half the exact vowels/dipthongs. The Low Saxon ones are actually diphthongs they just get analysed as long vowels.

The "buy" root seems to be extinct in all other Germanic languages, everyone uses the root for cheap, instead.

English does seem to drift the semantics of its Germanic roots like a motherfucker. People snicker about place names like "Quickborn" but if you weren't English-brained it'd just mean "lively spring" to you. Speaking of fuck.

There's no "behind the scenes" there are plenty of EU-based cloud providers. Including SAP though that's not why I mentioned them.

It'd take some time to organise a replacement organisation but it's not like those systems collapse when the central service goes down. We do have our own root servers and the internet can survive a month or two of not being able to register new tlds or assign subnets.

On the flipside, I wonder how US multinationals would fare without SAP.

The code section in particular is gold and exactly the type of online content we need. A big reason why chuds like Tate are successful is because they provide a code ("compass, outlets, who you're with, how it feels"), which before the internet was something everyone built for themselves, actively picking and choosing, while nowadays the algorithms do the picking+choosing for us. Or, well, before the algorithmic internet boomers largely got that stuff from old institutions (be that church or the party), Gen X from rebellion, then come us sweet-spot millennials seeing the boomer/X conflict and having access to previously unheard of amounts of information to actively choose from, and then Gen Y and younger getting fed by the outrage machine.

So what we need is algorithm-compatible content that challenges the whippersnappers to build their own code, in an active manner. Give guidelines, give examples, but don't decide for them (that makes you no better than the algorithm or for that matter Gen X and boomers) and definitely don't make it a list of don'ts: They're in the process of adapting instincts to currentyear, good living requires finding a configuration that denies none, our task is to help them not being maladaptive, steering away from both neurosis (denial of instinct) as well as asocial BS (exploiting in/outgroup instincts for power plays, oxytocin can be vile). To do that you need to point out the various fundamental drives, validate all of them, make that shit resonate as deeply as possible so they spot the drives themselves instead of some social construct painting over it, enable them to draw a map of their needs, then give examples, plural, of how it can all be integrated in a coherent fashion.

It would've been smarter of those companies to replace the bosses with AI.

No argument from me there but when I bought that 1500W kettle Amazon was still a book shop. I'm not saying that 15 Euro were a good price but it's what I think REWE (as in the supermarket, do they still use that brand for physical stores?) sold it to me for because I couldn't be arsed to make a trek into the city to visit a proper appliance store.

Drip machines make worse coffee and are more of a hassle than just dumping hot water into the filter holder all at once so I'll chalk it up to abysmal US coffee culture combined with consumerism, then.

If kettles were continuous loads we'd have to reduce from 16A to 10A (2200W) or 8A (1800W). Schuko are rated for as little as 1h of 16A but for a kettle that's plenty, they're done in a minute or two.

German stoves are connected to at least 2x10A, newer installations (as in since the 70s or such) all provide 3x16A. Not actually three-phase they're still 220V appliances. Whether the outlets, light etc. are on different phases differs widely.

Not the ones I was thinking of. Great, you found a cheap kettle at mediamarkt, good for you. Here's a 1500W one, also not the one I was thinking of. I was thinking of one I once had. The one that's the reason why my current one is 3000W and wide enough to not risk tipping over.

They are, in fact, designed to resuscitate frozen hamsters.

If that’s your take on this thread then you’re just as complicit as the rest of these incels.

It's my take on my own contributions. Note that those didn't include "defending some guy", it really was an exhaustive list. How you managed to get that wrong in a post in which you apologised about getting something wrong is something you'll have to ask your dead horse, I suppose.

Lol, falsely conflating me telling you not to blame POC and women for late stage capitalism with telling you not to cry is pretty hilarious.

I did what?

What injustice are you facing that generations of women and immigrants haven’t been receiving the whole time?

I've been using this thread as an opportunity to talk about a positive example, and that's the marked increase in male childcare workers in Germany. I pointed out some masculine influencers doing good work. I bemoaned that much "X for women/girls" stuff is half-assed feel-good BS, prone to causing more harm than good (because half-assed, because it's done for optics instead of the thing itself).

I've been constructive. I didn't lash out and try to put people down for caring about their issues. I didn't wrap people up in ass-long back and forth threads demanding justification after justification why they care just to find an excuse to pounce, then ride my high horse into the sunset.

Oh, and I also shot the horse of some guy.

Oxygen content will differ which can actually make a difference when brewing tea.

I usually don't drain my kettle but when I'm pulling out the yixing pot and good leaves, I'm using all fresh water and set the thermostat so that it'll stop well before boiling.

A European 15 buck plastic kettle will likely also not pull more than 1500W. And probably only hold a litre. And still be overpriced.
