I am disappointed nobody mentioned that 42 is the perfect choice since it’s the Answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, the Universe, and Everything.

Sometimes I dream about a nonprofit mega platform (like a web search with social media and a shopping platform included) that clearly communicates it‘s users that it will share all the knowledge with everybody that is interested in it for free in a privacy respecting way. Making this information basically worthless. Just to fuck with google and all the big players in the ad business.
A platform that is financed by donations and ads that have some sort of fair use pricing where small advertisers are even allowed to advertise for free (but the usage of ads is only allowed to compensate money that is missing to keep everything operational) A platform where small players can sell their stuff for free. A platform with social media, without any algorithms. Fuck it, let‘s even include a video platform and some sort of business platform just to make it complete.
As I said it must be a nonprofit. So it would basically have no intention to earn more than enough money to keep everything operational, making it the cheapest option for everybody and destroying all the mega corps out there that just can’t get squeezed enough revenue out of it’s users. This way we would be brought back to the golden ages of the internet 10-20 years ago.


I think the origin was 100% racist. But most people just used the words without thinking about the origin.
When I was s kid, they had racist names. It was just the name like a bicycle is called a bicycle. You just used the name. The realization came later when I was older and knew that the words can also be used as a slur.
To be fair though, Germany changed a lot since the 90s. Racism was way worse in the 90s/00s than now.


Dickmann‘s is a Brand. The general name is „Schaumkuss“ or „Schokoschaumkuss“. They had pretty racist names in the past and taste great


Because they couldn’t find a buyer?


It seems to be this site: https://polymarket.com/
I never thought about this before. But you could absolutely drown in a huge water bubble surrounding your head in space.
Imagine wearing this without a vagina. I’m sure it will be even more uncomfortable 😂
I once did some fun boxing with a friend of mine. He punched me just in my arm without any effort and it was enough to make me stumble. He is around 10-15cm taller than me, and around 20-30kgs heavier. My arm was blue for weeks.
Weight absolutely matters. It’s simple physics (kinetic energy)
Also you can compensate a lot with training. I‘m also in this picture. But since I do regular cardio, I can run for hours and move my dad body the whole day without getting tired. With a bit of strength training I am able to build some serious invisible strength. I wouldn’t underestimate a guy with a bit of body fat.
And in this specific application (simple resistor as a load) you could even save all the diodes and generate even more heat in the resistor alone instead of also „heating“ the diodes. *
This my most favorite circuit. It’s a very simple and elegant solution doing its job in silence without getting the kudos it deserves.
I also resisted to downvote you for the same reason. The willpower cycle continues 😁
I don’t want to sound negative but you’re both very young. If I think back to all the couples we had when we were your age I think all of them aren’t together anymore. I’m not saying you are going to split definitely but it may be very likely. People change a lot when they are growing up with age ~20+. So you may end up with the feeling of wasted time or missed opportunities if you wait a whole year.
Also, everybody should live his own life and solve his own problems. It’s going to get very hard for yourself if you jump in for everything. And your bf won’t learn lessons for his own life and doesn’t get a chance to grow.
I’d say don’t wait. Do your thing, your bf does his thing and you try to have a good time together in your free time 😁


That’s definitely not going to happen. One of the few things Windows is doing right is backwards compatibility. Have 30 year old exe? It usually just runs fine. In my experience a lot of business logic relies on this compatibility. It would be stupid from a business standpoint to break this compatibility. It would upset a lot of paying customers.
But wait a second. I’m speaking about Microsoft. All we wanted was a Windows 7 with a modernized GUI. And we got Windows 10 with Cortana, multiple Control panels, redundant settings that contradicted each other. We got Windows 11 with ads everywhere, Copilot, enforced MS accounts and so on.
It would perfectly make sense to switch to Linux. They could fire a lot of devs. I’m sure they would save a lot of money for a couple of seconds.
Obviously they don’t give a shit about customers, so this sounds like a normal thing Microsoft could do for short term gains.
Without using fancy components: Just simply adding a 6.2 and a 2400 Ohm resistor in parallel already gives you 6.18402 Ohm ⚡️
I can’t even imagine something so small being so dense that it weighs 6,2kg.
