Als junger, gesunder Mensch kann man sich doch aktuell sowieso nur auf eigene Kosten gegen Corona impfen lassen, wenn man nicht gerade in der medizinischen oder pflegerischen Versorgung arbeitet.

The same amount of JXL gives you more image than JPEG? Also, it supports ridiculous resolutions (terapixel).

I took my existing JPEG file, compressed it using JXL, 15% smaller.

Then I decompressed it again into JPEG. The file was bit-for-bit identical to the original file (same hash). Blew my mind!

Directly using JXL is even better of course.

You can check heavens above (adjust your location) to check when it will be visible for you.

Wait a second, it’s going to pass over my house in 5 minutes!

Edit: Shit, clouds!

Edit2: I was able to see it through a few gaps in the cloud cover!

S. Wagenknecht hat einer “Koalition mit AfD in Thüringen klare Absage” erteilt:

Sie erklärte, dass man mit dem dortigen AfD-Landeschef Björn Höcke "nicht zusammenarbeiten" könne. Höcke vertrete "ein völkisches Weltbild - das ist also meilenweit von uns entfernt". Die Zustimmung zu AfD-Anträgen behielt sich Wagenknecht aber vor. "In einer Demokratie sollte jede Partei, die Anträge einbringt, ein normales Verfahren erwarten, wo am Ende entschieden wird, ist der Antrag richtig oder falsch."

Aber ob man mit einer AfD ohne Höcke zusammenarbeiten würde? Wurde nicht ausgeschlossen.

Ah, yes, the horseshoe.

I wouldn’t consider BSW as a classical left-wing party, though (also rejected by BSW, but I think smaller/new parties usually try to avoid classifying themselves in the left-right-spectrum). Sociopolitically, their positions appear (not much substance so far) to be more closely align with the conservative-/right-wing-end of the political spectrum.

But DE, SE, and ES are the official two-digit ISO 3166 country codes for Germany, Sweden, and Spain, respectively. The ISO 3166 country code for Greece is GR, not ES.

However, el is the official ISO 639 language code for the Greek language (lowercase, not uppercase!). So for some reason, someone decided to use the uppercase Greek language code to denote the country of Greece. (the two-digit ISO 639 language code for Sweden is sv, so it’s not even consistent)

As /u/Successful_Try543@feddit.org pointed out, they apparently use the VAT identification number for this image.

Das hier scheint die Bildquelle zu sein.

The link is broken, because it is attempting to create a new archive.org snapshot whenever someone clicks on it.

Selbst wenn Biden jetzt seine Kandidatur zurückzieht, wüsste ich nicht, was irgendjemand diesem Bild entgegensetzen könnte.

3 weeks, roughly in line with faster Space Shuttle turn around times

The shortest shuttle turnaround time was 55 days. Almost three times as much as Falcon 9. The fastest post-Challenger turnaround time was 88 days, I believe. After Columbia, the fastest turnaround was around 5 months.

NASA claimed that the shuttle could achieve a turnaround time of two weeks (page IX). It looks like SpaceX is not the only one setting unrealistic timelines?
