Wait a minute...that wheat is anachronistic, isn't it?

Ancient Egyptian drawings show wheat at that time was ready to harvest if it was from chest height to taller than a man.

I have never owned a car that did not already belong to 2 family members prior. Surprisingly, I have yet to be kicked down the social ladder and sweep dung for a living.

Also, used cars are like 3000€ here. I have no idea of used cars, but at some point having them be serviced every year should be cheaper than monthly payments, right?

So you would say it's fair if he had said "It's called Japan" instead? They glorify their recent past as well.

I don't think how places used to be plays any part in how funny insulting them is. Despite being as powerful as the UK when it was last relevant and worse, I think people would still be offended if he said Japan instead. "Always OK to hate colonizers" as someone put it my butt, the internet just really wants to make fun of France and not feel bad about it.

I know, that's what my "when have these things ever been static" was supposed to express.

I choose to believe there is a lot more to the magic object than the truth or it's own will. It's a mirror after all, what you see depends on who stands before it. If you ask to see beauty and the reflection shows how you compare to a 14 year old, that's on you.

Then again, when have these things ever been static. Shrek's iteration has it's own will.

Whenever someone says they aim to make it "easier to build houses", I feel they just mean they'll remove certain standards. Not the "must have this many parking spaces" standards which we can do without, the "do we really need a fire ladder?" standards. And then the house is sold at the same price(+inflation) than before because the cost cut all goes to the builder, not the buyer.

If you assume the building company is exploiting every change in regulation (they do like money after all), small changes do nothing and you readily adopt more extreme views (and if you're racists you blame the people with neither money nor power, but that's expected of them).

Hätt ich ja fast verpasst.

Wird dann wohl mal Zeit, ein Profil einzurichten, gell?

Isn't it super normal to move and turn while sleeping? Is sleeping on the left side so much better that doing it for the first hour only has a noticeable impact? Or do you also need a weighted blanked to keep you in place for it to have that effect?

Sounds like pseudoscience to me.

"Return of the Obra Dinn" is the best Detective-type game I have ever played. Pure inductive, yet always logical reasoning. The setting of an Victorian ship, the 1-Bit artystyle, excellent ost and memorable story really elevate this recommendation to a must-play.

On something from this decade, Balatro is great if you like cards and rouge-likes. But it's been so popular I don't think anyone interested hasn't heard of it yet.

Oh, and as others have pointed out and I'd hate myself for not mentioning it, Tunic is great as well. It's a love-letter to the instruction book, and makes one really feel like playing an old game and relying on an instruction book, while not being all that great at reading, like some may remember from their childhood. But with modern game design and what others call Dark-soul mechanics (idk, I have never played a Fromsoft game).

 
 

Moin! Einem Mitbürger beschwerte sich bei mir, dass ja in unserer Gemeinde tiefnachts die Laternen ausgeschaltet werden. Wäre ja deswegen unsicherer hier als wenn nicht. Ich stimmte da nicht zu, erinnerte mich aber an meine Führerscheinprüfung: Dafür gibt es doch extra ein Verkehrszeichen:

Zeichen 394 "Laternenring"

(Soll innerorts an Laternenpfählen kleben, wenn die Latenen nicht die gesammte Nacht brennen.)

Bei besagter Laterne fehlt der Ring aber. Und auch an allen anderen in der Straße. Und eigentlich gab es nur 2 Straßen im gesammten Dorf, bei denen man extrem alte, vergilbte oder teilweise abgerissene Laternenringe erkennen konnte.

Ich hab das mal an eine Behörde gemeldet. Wurde zur Gemeinde weitergeleitet, die bestätigt, dafür zuständig zu sein. Das war vor 2.5 Monaten. Getan hat sich bisher nichts. "Kann aus Kapazitätsgründen dauer". Meiner Recherche nach ist einzige freie Stelle an der Gemeinde eine Putzkraft (m/w/d). Störn tut mich das Auschalten ja nicht, dass Lokalpolitiker aber offenbar fürs Nichtstun bezahlt werden, schon.

Hat hier irgendwer Erfahrung mit Kommunalpolitik, Ahnung welcher Zeitraum bei ~150 Laternen eigentlich normal ist, Anregungen wie Ich möglichst Passiv-Aggresiv bei meiner 2-ten Mail wirke, oder Kommentare, dass ich mich über nichts aufrege?

Thought about comparing different modes of transport, but realized it would be way too subjective. For example, if 5 km are in biking range is dependent on biking infrastructure, available public transport, how in shape you are...

But then I realized I can just simplify all these things away to get the optimal transportation flowchart. Simple is always better, right?
