The Palestinians get, or used to get, a lot of of their fresh water from Israel.

This fucks them both, but now part of the suffering are israeli, makes it okay? Making them your martyrs?

For context: Since everyone likes to make it politically, ranting about Trump and the current state of the USA.

The Dutch moved 122,5 tons of gold from the US to Amsterdam in 2014. Germany started moving 300 tons of gold from the US to Germany back in 2013 and finished this in february 2017.

People are severely overestimating the importance of AI. It’s more FOMO than anything else.

Wait until you have to pay non-subsidized prices for the use of LLM’s, how productive are they in reality when the real costs come in to play? You could just train and hire actual people to do the job far more accurately with some quality control?

Not denying there’s some fields with great benefits from LLM’s, but writing emails, answering phonecalls aren’t it. LLM’s cant even transcribe conversations with any proper accuracy and as a society we now trust them to make decisions.

It boggles the mind, really.

The LED bulbs barely die. I am still using first gen bulbs i bought over a decade ago. I’ve only had 1 die on me so far. Versus the monthly replacement of some heat bulbs and always having a box of spares around.

Changing lightbulbs is kind of a thing from the past. Old fashioned fillament heat bulbs are hardly in use in Germany nowadays.

Dutch cuisine primarily consists of deep fried food.

Specialities like the frikandel (german frikandel is very different), patat/friet oorlog, waterfiets, kroket, bamischijf, kaassoufle and fried bounty(the candybar). Or this wonderful Arabic/Dutch combination, de kapsalon.

Many people love these foods tho. Well regarded by most tourists.

A dutch restaurant is called a snackbar.

To be fair, mcdonalds in the EU is not nearly the same as mcdonalds in the US.

It is somehow exponentially worse in the US.

I first saw this video when getting my forklift license, lol. It being an official instruction video somehow makes it better.

Zero. Efficient germans use efficient LED.

So are English and French. And English and Frysian. English is a moshpit of languages.

More a happy coincidence that it lines up.

The tools used dont change the core principles which in Debians case is the social contract.

Slop is never going to get through any serious quality control.

If it comes, it comes. Will be a shame. But until then I will happily keep using it.

Wait until they find out AI is used in the Linux kernel.
