It doesn’t solve the album art issue, which also really annoys me. I spent a lot of time adding art back in the days of using that thing…

It probably also feels less premium than the newer offerings. It’s pretty old, irc I bought it in 2014 or thereabouts.

I still have a FiiO X1 (not sold anymore) it has very robust navigation for a device without a keyboard, and does gapless playback.

The newer budget offerings kinda feel like a downgrade.

Einfach Schlittschuh fahren

Die alte Glühbirne hat ja im Ofen auch einen Wirkungsgrad von nahezu 100% was nicht Licht wird macht halt den Ofen wärmer, der ja auch mit Strom geheizt wird (meistens).

Most people die from heat way before water starts to boil though. And we also don’t freeze solid at 0°C, although it is pretty cold, I’d say that end fits slightly better.

Yeah but usually ppl don’t care about one wearing earplugs/anc headphones in day to day life. Especially when you explain why.

Learning how to deal with abuse is a good thing obviously, but I don’t think that we should do that by just abusing people on purpose when it’s not necessary at all. That just has very strong “it builds character” vibes…

Like the earplug thing just shouldn’t be an issue at all. It seems to be one sometimes, but not allowing someone to wear earplugs won’t prepare them to deal with ppl trying to prevent to do that in the future.

But in this case it’s easy to prevent…

Useful idiot? That’s a new one :D

Die gelben Warnungen vom DWD sind tatsächlich meistens super egal, ich lese die eigentlich eher als Info. Es gibt aber auch andere Farben die deutlich seltener vorkommen und die ich dann auch automatisch ernster nehme.

Man hätte die gelben Dinger auch einfach nicht Warnungen nennen müssen…

I sometimes look up just to see who exactly the name belongs to, out of sheer curiosity. But apart from that I also really don’t care.

They must’ve really done a number on you, huh?

Maybe look for governments trying to switch from Microsoft to open source alternatives for their digital infrastructures.

Not all of the European ones are trying to do that, but the ones that are, probably need skilled people to do so.

Maybe, but in my memories my childhood wasn’t super full of overstimulation. We didn’t have a TV at home and my mom was fairly good at seeing me rested, because if I wasn’t I’d be super annoying to her.

If anything, I was responsible for my overstimulation at home once I had a pc and access to the internet. It probably could be a factor though, because, my then undiagnosed ADHD, usually was only a problem at school. And school was very overstimulating at times.

But I feel I wouldn’t have turned out super different if school and the rest of the world had been less stimulating. Alot of the problems I had could be attributed to ADHD and they started pretty early in school. I can’t remember a lot about my live before school but from what I’m told it was relatively stress free, at least for me. But parents being constantly stressed can also affect their children, so who knows really…

I drink the same cup of coffee everyday, and I deliberately limited myself to one cup when I started drinking coffee.

I’m one of the trans kids adults, I’d be fucked anyways. Just wanted to illustrate that being invaded, if you welcome it or not, is usually a pretty rough affair.

War is brutal, I don’t know if I would be willing to suffer through one, just for stuff to be slightly better afterwards, maybe. Provided I had the choice in the first place ofc.

Was there any DRM for the ds games beyond the physical media being difficult to read without a console?

I also don’t want to build gallows, it doesn’t matter who hangs really. But if someone else is building gallows to hang me from, I won’t be watching idly.

I’ll at least have to try to resist, if I wouldn’t I’d might as well hang myself now, or at least when the struggle gets to much to bear.

Germany’s government usually only does e-services kicking and screaming.

Yeah but any invasion probably pushes half of the country over the edge before the war would be over.

I wouldn’t wanna risk death and destruction for a mere potential 4" further from the edge.

The vast majority of Chinese citizens believe the government represents their interests

I don’t think that the belief of being represented is a good metric for democracy or actual representation.

It might be that the Chinese government is doing pretty good in that regard, but the only thing that metric is actually saying is that people are not disillusioned. Wether that’s because there is no illusion in the first place or the government is just good at selling itself can’t be seen from that data. Although most likely it’s a mixed bag, as per usual in life.
