Dus… Conclusie: met 60% is een gewone fiets gevaarlijker dan een e-bike? Bejaarden mogen niet meer fietsen?

They are rich together. One just a tad more then the other.

Edit: typos. (curse you ms swiftkey!)

We’re from a different era my dude. These days it’s all analysts, architects and data scientist.

Who can’t do jack shit without guys like you.

What you’re doing here is the exact same as them: no discussion possible. The only valid viewpoint is yours. The end. And you also add a verdict to your sentence.

I agree with them. You dont kill (cull) a child because of money. You never kill a child.

I also agree with you that a fetus is not a child. And that abortion is not evil or bad.

See? Both can be true.

We’re going to kenya!

No treaty? Yes, factually that is true.

But you could say we where double dealing. We said something, did another.

And the linked article in the post says the same. Yes , oral guarantees where made. No, they where never written down and quickly forgotten when push came to shove. Probably because we knew russia could do jack shit about it at that time. And still can’t .

Why the downvotes: because you’re clearly the asshole. Or isn’t this /amitheasshole?

Yes, older people have views from the past. That’s because they are older people. Yes, older people bitch and whine. That’s because friends and spouses are dead by now, they feel alone and forgotten. Yes, older people are not always nice. That’s because things you don’t even think about, like putting on clean socks or taking a shit by yourself have become hard, for some even impossible to do on their own and/or without pain leaving them with a feeling of loss and even regret for living that long.

On top of that they’re literally waiting to die. And let’s not forget dementia.

Now, maybe your granny is younger like 60 something, but still…

Your response to the situation lacks a lot of empathy and respect. Without this person you wouldn’t be sitting there, scrolling through anime titties you clearly like just not always.

And lastly: you will be her in 40-60 years. (i don’t know how old you are) You will be alone, your body will falter, your (grand) children will be uninterested in you. Etc.

In other news, water is wet. I only see FUD here.

Hold up, hold up. “on linux such a thing doesnt exist” is a very bold statement for something containing millions of lines of code.

There where and will be more then enough zero days in Linux, be it because of malice or incompetence.

Open source doesn’t say anything about the quality of the code.

Ever heard of log4j? Open source code…

For reasons unknown this reaction was placed wrongly. My client fucked up.

It is in response to https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/u/SnotFlickerman

@SnotFlickerman@lemmy.blahaj.zone

What are you saying? Age discrimination is ok? Older people are too expensive? This is a made up problem?

Or are you saying this is ok because it has been happening for decades and it shouldn’t change because it has been going on forever ?

I don’t get it.

Discrimination is bad, m’kay? Against white, yellow, black, red, old, young, man, women, trans and everything in between I forgot. It all shouldn’t matter. Especially in the corporate world.

It’s bullshit. If someone does a good job there is no reason to fire them. If it’s true then i say to this guy : good for you. Make 'em pay.

It’s not an rpg and it’s not set in space! It’s a porn flic about rimming in the sky.

Really gross.

If you watch, binge, all seasons se08 becomes more logical. There are small markers all over the series predicting it all. I didn’t pickup those at first (weekly) watch.

I say more logical, not logical.

Se01-se06 are still TV magic. Se07 (dany’s attack on the lannister convoy comes to mind) still is good and se08 just speed runs everything.

I still think that was their only true mistake: speed running the season. It gave us everything we wanted. But in such a way nobody could enjoy it all. Jaime finally becoming true good only to return to his true love? (some very powerful acting there) Check. The long night? Check. End of the night king? Check. Ice dragon? Check. Arya voyage finally given meaning? Check. Jorahs redemption? Check. Cleganebowl? Check. Cersei dies? Check. Return of the mad king queen? Check. Theon’s redemption? Check. Destruction of kings landing? Check. Etc etc etc. It ticks all the boxes and more you didn’t even know they existed. It’s just that it ticks them in such an insane speed which results in gaps in the storytelling. Gaps of which some are filled if you binge it all but most will not.

Se08 had to be 2 seasons. Season 8, ending with the long night, se09, the fall of the red keep.

Yes, the 2nd dragon had to die for the sake of the story. Missandei had to die to cement Cersei being the baddest cruel bitch and complete dany’s arc to insanity. But like this? That was stuff for an entire episode. Not the final three minutes of one.

Not to shit on you (well maybe as little) but the guy has a point.

You want them to not care. Doesn’t that go both ways? If some edgy straight horny teen wants more straight tiddies and less gay in his game, who the fuck cares?

Cause let’s be honest, that’s what we’re talking about here. Teens and desperate 30 year olds.

And don’t you think what you imply is scary?

And with that I mean : “people’s thoughts influence their actions”

I fucking hope so.

And who are you to tell them what is right and what is wrong?

What hamas did, what started this war, was absolutely unforgivable, horrendous and barbaric. It’s impossible to support that organisation in any way anymore.

What Israel did which led to this over the last 10 years was stupid and very discriminatory. The amount of violence against the palistinian people during the last decade is well documented and inexcusable. Which could only lead to a violent reaction. (illegal settlements, violence against palistinians, discrimination, withholding electricity and water)

The rise to (political) power of hamas was a, self defeating victory. It made the position of the palistinian people worse, not better.

The return of Netanyahu, a convicted criminal if im not mistaken is baffling and unexplainable to any outsider.

The position of the west in this whole mess should at least raise an eye brow of the voters of our democracies.

Israels reaction to hamas’ horrific action is completely out of proportion and the attack on the hospital was very wrong in every way. The amount of “weapons” found there means nothing in a war zone. It’s quite possible that the weapons shown are personal sidearms of wounded palistinian fighters dropped off at the hospital.

The Israeli involvement in Syria seems to be aimed at kicking syria while its down so it stays down. This helps current Israeli military security but it’s very short sighted.

Israeli mossad actions (killings of scientist etc.) abroad (iran, etc.) while understandable from a military standpoint do not further the Israeli cause. Short term it increased Israeli military security but long term it has great repercussions. It eroded the trustworthiness of Israel to SA levels.

Israel is on the stupid path for at least the last decade. Ditto Hamas. Hamas especially should be smarter since they’re clearly the less powerful of the two. Israel should be much smarter then this looking at the history of the Jewish people and their state.

To me it seems nobody really red and understood the koran, the tanakh or the teachings of christ in whichever form.

But they do use those as an excuse to kill each other. Which is weird.

So… Putting this all together I can say nothing. Looking at it from western Europe i see a gigantic mess which can only end in tears and genocide. Nobody is willing to give in, so blood will continue to flow. Until there is none left.

What I can say is: Pax Americana and the European stability will end, somewhere in the next century. While unfortunately for me personally as a European there are very clear markers all around us (if you want to see them, that is) that the current stability/status quo which exist since ww2 will not last.

Israel should take that into account. Plan for a viable future without american and European support. I don’t see that. I only see very short term reactionary policies.

Shut up. You’re paying for a service and still get almost 50% ads?

Why? How? Which? And do we in the EU also have this awaiting in our future?

There is stuff worth pirating, stuff which can’t be found through other means or is way overpriced. Stuff like old movies or impossible to legally gather roms.

For all others: “convenience is king.”

And you’re smart to not pirate software. The. “no illegal software” rule has saved me many times.

Yeah, no.

The hunt is only fun if you’ve got time to spare.

Throw in a spouse, kids, good but demanding job, a place to live, social obligations, detoriating (geriatric) parents, and you’re so happy you can just mash one single button and your favourite track, game or series starts to play.

That’s the reason why people stop pirating. Time.

When time is not (yet) your most precious resource you can see the fun in anything. Even virus scanning.

Where I live (NL, EU) there are several charging stations (+20 spots) within a 10 mile radius. Every neighborhood has like 5-10 parking spots with a charger. Around 10-15% of the residential housing have their own high-power charging outlet. Office buildings have around the same percentage (10-15%) of their parking lot converted to charging parking spots. Even parking lots in cities come with that same percentage of charging stations these days.

Next to that around 30% of all housing is equipped with solar panels. New office buildings and factories all have giant solar arrays on their roofs. No exceptions.

In the EU the biggest problem is not willingness or effort. The biggest problem is reality. You can’t connect that all to a power grid designed in the 60s. Energy infrastructure is hard, big and slow to build. Our grid is full. We are building like mad men but it just isn’t realisable in a short time. Especially since all of the EU is building a new grid at the same time… Building (nuclear) power plants, wind mills, conversion stations, high power grid cables all takes a lot of time.

But, mobility in the EU is starting to become too expensive for the median income. Here a litre of ron95 gasoline is around 2 euros. The purchase of new cars are taxed to insanity here in NL. Around 50% of the price is tax. A new electric vehicle with acceptable range is somewhere around 50-60k (ionic, ev5/6)

Electric vehicles had all sorts of tax exemptions. That’s changing. Soon they’re also taxes to the fullest.

Alas, everyone who doesn’t have a job which provides a car does what I do: drive that old piece of garbage till it really falls apart.

And I think that are the 2 main reasons for the laxer rules on ice vehicles. Reality regarding the needed infrastructure and cost to the public. Everything has become so much more expensive the last 4 years.

That’s what turkey did after theirs got shot down first.

There is some more context to that event and it’s aftermath.

That’s such a strange question. It’s almost like you imply that Google results do not need fact checking.

They do. Everything found online does.
