Do better.

Well I’m trapped in it (purchased software, connected devices). The fence is knee-high at most though.

I’m using both iPhones and Android phones (vanilla and rooted), the only valid point you make is about using themes. I belong to to the 99,9% of users who don’t bother.

You forgot some important feature that Android phones have: They don’t pester you too much about privacy: they allow apps per default to use the GPS, message you, etc. Also they come with a lot of unneeded apps preinstalled, some of these being impossible to deinstall

Romani ite domum!

Now write that 100 times!

If Döpfner/Springer are behind Politico it is fucking poison.

Same for me but I also got the info that there is only enough budget for a few “exceeds” bonuses. So the official reviews needed to match the bonuses. So if you had a great team only the bosses darlings would get the bonus. The rest can burn out for nothing.

In addition they had a peer performance bonus factor. This means if you outperform your peers you get a bonus. I actually had a reviewer ask me to rat on my peers so I can elevate my chances getting the bonus while lowering theirs. I gladly left that place shortly after.

In Germany even calling the the emergency numbers frivolously is a felony. An ambulance is for emergencies. if you call them because you don’t feel like taking a cab somebody else might die because the ambulance can’t reach them in time. That being said that conservative chud is still a fucking idiot.

Yep, it’s a felony to even call the emergency number frivolously.

You need to stop feeding the trolls.

I was at a college American football game in Florida some time ago. It was upsetting to be asked to swear allegiance to something like every 15 minutes. Like calm down dudes I’m just being here being forced to watch a Handegg game.

Yep, they might as well go all the way and also wear armbands.

Possibly. It’s hard to know without seeing the numbers and assessing output quality and volume.

Also it’s not unheard of that some bigwig wastes millions of company €€ for some project they fancy. (Billions if they happen to be Elon)

The LLMs they train on their code will only be accessible internally. They won’t leak their own intellectual property.

Vielleicht weil die Amis bei jeder Gelegenheit USA, USA skandieren? Bei den Sowiets gab es das nicht.

Prost!

Das heilige römische Reich deutscher Nation has entered the chat.

Both have the same ‚distance‘ to Munichen albeit changing differently. The English pronunciation is an abomination though. Moon-Jen would be preferable from my POV.

Guy that named it called it Aluminum, Alumium, and Aluminium. Aluminium stuck, even in the US.

Then some weirdo types decided they were in charge of naming things in the US decided it needs to be Aluminum. It took them about 50-90 years to succeed.

His sister looks like him with boobs added.

I think this works better when the numbers are not equal:

There are a thousand reasons to move out of California but there are a million reasons to not go to Texas.
