It's a difficult time to be an export economy. I wouldn't say no to trains running on time, but as long as the CDU is part of the government, we won't get sensible investment into the infrastructure. They're simply not willing to get it done.

Not even remotely the same thing, and you know that.

People want to continue eating their traditional dishes and their favourite dishes from their childhood. And if meat-replacement products allow them to do that, then that's a great thing and makes the transition away from meat way easier.

Not saying that the stats are fully correct, but it's not only about direct emissions, but also about land use. A big chunk of the world's land area is used for producing meat. Restoration of forests and swamps on those areas would also have a massive impact.

In 3 Jahren wird die KI-Blase schon geplatzt sein.

Grafik mit gelbem Hintergrund und teilensWert-Icon. Aufschrift: „He said she said“-Journalismus / Wenn Medien zwei widersprüchliche Aussagen gleichwertig nebeneinanderstellen – ohne sie zu einzuordnen.

Vermehrt in der Berichterstattung zu #ICE zu beobachten: „He said she said“-Journalismus. Ein verzerrtes Bild der Realität entsteht. Dabei ermöglicht es die Faktenlage, eine klare Haltung einzunehmen und staatliches Handeln kritisch einzuordnen.

Mit der Schlagzeile ist der Postillon übrigens näher an der Realität als die meisten seriösen Medien. Und das ist kein quib à la "haha satire ist tot", sondern ernste Medienkritik. Wenn Medien die Realität nicht mehr aussprechen wollen, weil sie so bizarr ist, verfehlen sie ihren Job.

It's a mod project that aims to create a remake of Morrowind in the Skyrim engine (so basically as a massive Skyrim mod). Any release is still far away though.
Skyblivion (similar idea, just with Oblivion) is quite close to a release though.

BIG FIGHT AT POLAND’S WROCLAW ZOO!!!

Sehe ich auch so. Zum Glück hat Europa nennenswert viele Soldaten, für die den Einsatz in Schnee und Kälte ausbebildet (und ausgerüstet) sind. Die USA haben da quasi nichts.
Grönland wäre für die USA also kaum zu halten, wenn es Widerstand gibt.

I've seen quite some moose in Sweden over the years (I went there on vacation a lot), and I mostly saw them from far away. They mostly avoid humans from what I can tell.

The best part is that you can add the prefix multiple times, like overoverovermorrow, pushing it a day ahead each time.
Now you still need something similar for "day before yesterday", but the archaic English version of that is so archaic that it's probably much harder to resurrect.🥲

I don't think this study went through any approval process yet, so it might still get yeeted into the sun.

E33 is amazing and deserved the GOTY, but having some RPG elements shouldn't be enough to win the "best role playing game" category imo.
There were other games that were *a lot* better at being a role playing game. So much better that there's no contest.

There are voice lines in Skyrim (that are actually used in the game) that just say "placeholder" (and it's actually localized into German: "Platzhalter").
I can see how AI generated stuff makes this more likely to happen, but it's kinda funny that it even happens when it should be totally obvious.😅

Even air is a pretty good insulation material. Not as effective as vacuum ofc, but way easier to use.

Happy birthday!

I'm 100% sure that if Germany announced to set up its own nuclear deterrance, even our closest allies would be very concerned we would face sanctions or even sabotage by them as a result.
Nuclear powers don't want *any* other countries to also become one.

I make textures as a hobby, and saying "eh, good enough" and moving on to the next thing is how I dodged a lot of the frustration. I half-assed things enough times so that skill and experience could accumulate.

Man bekommt halt an viel mehr wertvolle Informationen über Politik, wenn man Streams auf Twitch schaut. Und das obwohl die meistens nicht neutral sind (ist eher eine Form von Aktivismus).
Es kann doch nicht angehen, dass der professionelle Journalismus sich derart deklassieren lässt.

Am Ende ist es zu nem Großteil Sportberichterstattung.
Es wird nur wenig in Informationen vermittelt, die wichtig für eine informierte Wahlentscheidung sind. Aber Fan eines Fußballvereins zu sein muss ja keine informierte Entscheidung sein, also passt das schon. /s

I guess it depends from which angle you view it. As far as I remember, more than 60% of the money in the video game industry is made via microtransactions. A large portion of games these days are unregulated shopping/gambling addiction machines.
But there's still a ton of good games out there, too.

Es gibt bestimmt welche, aber mir fällt gerade niemand ein. Das Problem mit klugen Menschen ist, dass die am ehesten verstehen, wie am Arsch wir wirklich sind. Die müssten also extra viel suspension of disbelief aufbringen.

Jop. Ethisch unbedenklich ist es eher dann, wenn dir ein Familienmitglied einen Tee bringt, wenn du krank bist.

So einfach ist das nicht. Wenn die Person, die dir den Placebo gibt, kompetent & nett ist und du dich bei der Sache wohlfühlst, dann hat das auch ne Wirkung.

When I opened gmail on desktop, it asked me whether I want to enable "smart" features, and I could just select "no" and be done with it.
Do they maybe have to ask for consent in the EU?

Once I learned more about graphics and making textures myself, I started paying attention to a lot more details in real life. People don't notice how many mirror-like reflections are around us at all times.

zdfheute has a topic section about Ukraine, but they seem to have more topic pages at the same time.

Viel schlimmer als Katar oder Saudi Arabien kann es ja kaum werden, oder? ... Oder?
