Weinstein might be a fairly common jewish name? Definitely not changing mine, it’s very common.

I’d definitely consider it if my family name was Hitler, or something that’s a common swear word nowadays to the point that few people even know the original meaning anymore. “Ficker” is a relatively common name in my country, but to contemporary people it’s basically “fucker”. Many change the name into “Fischer” or use their spouse’s name instead.

I have strong doubts that rust could significantly speed up a software that’s written in C or C++.

puts on “Sad But True” by Metallica

sounds like absolute garbage.

So the same as most of the norwegian black metal recordings of the era?

I bet horses are way less annoying than cows, too. A nearby meadow regularly has cows, drives me up the walls sometimes (they can be pretty loud, and their frequencies really carry).

Where’s the early 00s dubstep spider?

… I wonder how IRL spiders react to absolutely excessive subbass.

What’s a reasonable amount of start-up capital? I wonder if you could make a big difference in US politics if you had like 50 billion USD and invested it all into promoting progressive (i.e. left of the DNC-mainstream) politicians and policy. Making sure that the USA don’t fuck everyone else’s shit up would make a huge difference.

Like, how much money are all the fascist billionaires actually investing into politics?

Might be a little late for this approach, though, at this point I’d expect that three letter agencies would just assassinate me if I started that now.

What did that even say originally? First line is “Trump” of course, but what’s the second and third line supposed to be?

Relevant context (probably): Buzz Aldrin seems to be/have been a bit of a dick.

IDK. If it wasn’t for my chronic health issues, I could at least have had a pretty decent career until now, and I definitely benefited from times when social security wasn’t completely eroded yet and housing prices were still affordable. And I actually remember times when you didn’t have to wait over half a year for a doctor’s appointment (not that they were much use for any of my issues…).

If you become an adult now you have even less of a chance.

That’s the stuff on standard non-stick pans (teflon). You don’t make PFAS by burning in some oil at home.

People who cut crusts off toast are so weird. Some bread actually has crusts that are kind of hard, I can see why someone might want to cut it off (even though I think the crust is usually the best part). But toast? maybe useful for the visual presentation, but even then I’d just eat the crust separately.

German bread can be really good, but a lot of German bread kinda sucks. Especially anything that comes pre-sliced in a plastic bag.

Some “opinions” genuinely suck. But I’ve seen downvotes on extremely mild takes, too.

Not to mention the irrational hate boner people have on the thorn dude.

I wouldn’t call it “disregard”. It’s outright cruelty and hate, Israeli soldiers want to hurt and kill Palestinian civilians. Though I agree that it’s unlikely that robots would have those emotions any time soon, it’s just not useful in any way.

Thing is, the German lutheran church is basically going all-in on being progressive and inclusive (relative to other churches anyway), they even do gay marriages now. And they’re still bleeding members like crazy, because Germans are becoming less and less religious.

Does this actually get in the way when you’re playing with mouse and keyboard? I do use my non-dominant thumb for hitting the space, alt and strg keys, but in many games that’s kinda optional, especially when the games aren’t super challenging. Turn-based RPGs like Divinity: Original Sin or Baldur’s Gate 3 should work great.

Or maybe they just can’t afford a safe car and put that sticker on for the lulz, because it’s so obviously stupid.

I’ve never even (consciously) seen a six-pack with the kind of stuff that traps animals, we don’t really do 6-packs of cans here and the bottle 6-packs are held together by cardboard …
