Europeans — especially Germans — are increasingly keen on curbing immigration and are less focused on climate change, according to a study by a Danish-based think tank....
From what I see, lots of people in Germany understand that some countries will be hit hard by climate change. The key issue is that they don’t care, and instead of stopping climate change their solution to this is to shut the borders and let no one in. These people are so resistant to changing their way of life, they’d happily trade people’s lives for it.
Changing our way of life is required to limit climate change and the effects it will have globally and locally, not to accommodate immigrants. Your rant is misplaced, and I don’t agree with it either.
Not an app, but here in Germany we have a public warning system that broadcasts an alert to all phones in an area in case of catastrophic events. Happened twice in my city since I moved here two years ago. Once for a mass shooting, and once for an accident at a chemical plant.
Politicians and dog experts are criticizing South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem after she wrote in a new book about killing a rambunctious puppy. The story — and the vilification she received on social media — has some wondering whether she’s still a viable potential running mate for presumptive Republican presidential candidate...
R is great for visualizations and also has some neat tools for building websites, interactive figures/maps, web apps, and stuff like that. So a lot of sculpting potential in R, if she manages to get into it far enough.
Another sign of rigging is that 2024 election results peaked at round figures, Shukshin wrote. This distribution of results looks like a saw on graphs, which led to the nickname “Putin’s saw.”
There is also evidence that the AfD had Russian officials draft a strategy paper for them, which they used as a basis for writing their party program. They have a real kink for Daddy Putin.

The party of States’ Rights™ going outside of their states’ jurisdiction to enforce state-level laws. All this work, and for what? To make a handful of people miserable, who found help at this particular hospital? For the legal precedent to make more people miserable?

Das “Technik wird in X reingespült” ist allgemein eine gute Beschreibung für das meiste, was hierzulande unter Digitalisierung läuft. Da wird dann lieber erstmal Hard- und Software angeschafft, ohne Sinn und Verstand, und diese Systeme stehen dann einem krassen Mangel an Sachverstand gegenüber, da es in den meisten öffentlichen Einrichtungen kaum jemanden gibt, der versteht, wie man sie richtig nutzt und langfristig pflegt. Es wird massenhaft Geld für Geräte und Lizenzen rausgeballert, aber fähiges Personal für deren Administration ist zu teuer.
Tesla, a future case study for securities law classes across America, had to stop delivering Cybertrucks this past weekend. No, not because the hundred-thousand–dollar medium-duty pickup, which is only any of those things in the loosest interpretive sense, tends to brick when it gets rained on; nor because its stainless steel...
Er hat nicht Autos als Problem erkannt, sondern lediglich, dass die Nutzung des Autos als individuelles Verkehrsmittel im Widerspruch zu den Klimazielen steht. Abschaffen will die FDP letztere.
Großes uff. Natürlich ist das, was scihub macht, illegal. Ethisch gesehen ist es aber zur heutigen Zeit absolut unabdingbar, wissenschaftliche Artikel kostenlos für alle Menschen auf der Welt zur Verfügung zu stellen. Da müsste der Staat sich um entsprechende Gesetze bemühen.
Vergiss nicht die Herausgeberinnen und deren Redaktion. Das beinahe komplette Personal, das die Manuskripte bei den Journals betreut, arbeitet entweder für lau oder gegen geringfügige Aufwandsentschädigungen. Und das wird dann verbucht unter “Dienst an der Wissenschaftsgemeinschaft” und zur Vorraussetzung für die Karriere erhoben, so als ob der Dienst nicht komplett bei privaten Verlagen verrichtet wird.
Edit: I’m not actually opposed to watching movies with directors cuts. Just realized I love watching ridiculously long video essays about movies, but almost never watch directors commentaries. Not sure why, probably availability....
