    Sanitär ist das einzige Handwerkliche wo ich echt gestresst werde. Die ergonomik ist immer kacke, wasser auf dem boden und in den eigenen ärmeln zu verteilen macht keinen spaß, wenn man es nicht auf die kette kriegt weil was kaputt ist fehlt einem das wasser bzw der abfluss, flexschlauch ist ein bastard der mir immer ein paar mm haut von den knöcheln schabt, und kontern im durch einen küchenschrank korpus eingeschränkten raum dauert immer viel länger und kostet mehr kraft als vorgesehen.




  • Ich habe In der letzten Woche Frieren S2 und dann die ersten paar folgen Dungeon Meshi geguckt. Frieren ist halt einfach mehr von dem was man in der ersten Hälfte S1 gesehen hat, schönes slice of live questing.

    Dungeon Meshi wirkt bisher auch sehr gut, auch relativ standard Fantasy setting in bisher sehr schön gemacht, der Hook mit dem monster essen hat mich als die Staffel rauskam nicht abgeholt ist aber durchaus sehr gut verwoben ins World-building und deutlich mehr als nur gimmick.

    Sonst wird weiter Slay the spire Gaming betrieben, hier hat jetzt auch der switch auf den Beta branch stattgefunden so das jeder balance patch direkt mitgenommen werden kann.

    Gehört wird in den letzten paar Wochen viel Underscores{Hyperpop} und Astrophysics, TAK, Deco*27 {Vocaloid}



  • Either the robbery is severe enough for the person who was robbed to assemble a little group to catch the robber or they just let it slide. If we know some info about the robber we could let any institutions in the surrounding area know that this person is to be exiled or at least that his missteps be brought up before he is again considered to be part of polite society.

    Local neighbourhood watch /militias could also exist and take over some of the polices current work especially when it comes to groups of potentially violent perpetrators.

    None of this is going to be particularly effective but it’s not like currently a robbery, or most other crimes are likely to be effectively prosecuted either so I don’t see the big issue.

    There are more watertight arguments made by anarchists, syndicalists and the like that you could read and agree or disagree with. But at the end of the day there is little ability for either of us to demonstrate, to me that the police can be fixed with any proposed method, and to you that society without police would work/ be more fair. So ultimately we are not gonna get much further here.




  • Ist zwar was spät aber ich habe in den letzten Wochen sehr viel Zeit mit Slay the Spire 2 was vor kurzem im early access rauskam verbracht. Das Spiel Ist Sehr nah am ersten teil was dazu führt dass es schon jetzt sich mechanisch sehr clean anfühlt. Es ist wieder sehr spaßig und teilweise anspruchsvoll die Neuen Karten und Gegner zu Lernen. Bisher fühlt sich der Spieler im Vergleich zum ersten teil noch etwas stark an, vor allem im für Coop welcher neu für dieses spiel ist. Dieser Coop ist trotzdem rund die Hälfte meiner Spielzeit weil das spiel mit der Gruppe einfach gut funktioniert und eine leichte soziale ebene in den Deckbuilding Spaß mischt.

    Wer den ersten teil mag hat sicher viel Spaß mit dem zweiten und für alle die grundsätzlich an Singleplayer und nun Coop Deckbuildern / Kartenspielen Interesse haben ist hier auch sicher viel Spielspaß zu finden.



  • Well they certainly could go much much worse. The regime and their base are so far from anything being based in reality I don’t think anyone can truly be certain where this will go.

    And you can just read about early ish days fascism in Germany and see how that meshes with this Regime and it’s historical context. In no particular order :

    • Legislature ineffective and captured/ aligned
    • Judiciary captured /placed
    • Executive controlled (by proxy)
    • Intimidation / Terror Squad
    • Industry leaders largely aligned
    • Populous tired and under economical hardship
    • Extreme militarization
    • Strong and largely aligned surveillance system
    • Scapegoating / internal Enemy phantasms
    • History of ineffective Governance / Corruption
    • Generally unrepresentative and unstable Political System
    • Moderate / Ineffective International push-back
    • Unpredictable and Hostile foreign Policy

    There are also lines that haven’t been crossed yet but there are not a lot before we get to the really Bad ones. So yes Large scale incarceration and killing against internal resistance, or simply against the ‘racialized other’ are maybe already the next steps if MAGA(and the reaction to it) keeps on this trek.

    There could be some kind of thing to fan the flames and lead into the big Bads including probably some external War as well.

    Or there could be circumstances that stop this insanity before we get there. But holy hell Americans are way to chill about all of this currently and MAGA certainly won’t stop until they are made to stumble and fall. Could be self inflicted of course but if the pressure is higher the chance of a fumble goes way up. So every resistance is worth the attempt at this point, and if the ship can still be pulled around there have to be real consequences otherwise it’s just gonna be this again on a few decade cycle. I mean this shit is already worrying over here and in Germany well we seem to rhyme politically with the US of ten or so years ago so …

    For me this certainly is Fascist and we all should know how that goes if it truly gets to go.




  • I live in a city that offers nearly any type of service/shop local to me so nowadays I’ll likely use them here unless what I’m searching for is overly specific.

    My mom recently took me to a store selling minerals and fossils, which while not my scene, is quite an interesting place to just walk through.

    Realistically I should probably get some of my food from a farming coop but my volume is so low and the supermarket is right in front of my door, to make that the main exception.

    Prices sometimes are higher but typically not egregiously so, and for some things i find it within myself to pay that higher price.



  • Nah im not gonna carry a liter of foam around to cut a 10^-5 chance in third, you do you of course, but this risk is small enough and the inconvenience of carrying around a helmet is large enogh for me to not care for cycling as transportation.

    I find the fear mongering around this topic to be supremely annoying. Just let adults ride their bikes however they want. If you try to get your child, employee, or participants in a sporting event to wear a helmet, that’s completely reasonable. But assuming the vast majority of dutch cyclists to be idiots for cycling without a helmet is just asinine.

    Everyone seeing cycling as a normal mode of transport is never gonna work if everyone is scared of cycling to the point of never considering it without a helmet. Mandatory helmet laws seem to be one of the most effective measures to discourage cycling, so don’t try to make a bike culture that effectively acts like one.


  • Why should my half hour be worth less than your minute or 2 until you can safely overtake.

    Not to mention that if their bike commute allows them to take a car of the road, you might be faster on average you just think that the bike makes you slower. Plus the 1000s of dollars in just waste if they would need to own a car instead and so on …

    You know what’s super convenient for you(r group) but super inconvenient for everyone else, car centric infrastructure development.


  • There’s a big difference in that type of cyclist and someone that’s riding a bike in street clothes for a commute. And it doesn’t make sense to act like they’re the same.

    No there isn’t at least not a large one, cycling costume or not has almost no bearing on whether the ride is for recreation/fitness or for getting from a to b, often both are combined. If you had a 30km commute on a bike you’d also try to wear clothes that make it easier to get there quickly and you would use the most direct route and this is what most cyclists are doing when people get annoyed by them.

    Plenty of people are doing their commute as their training ride because it makes sense to do so, why should they have to drive their car half an hour and do an hour of cardio instead of their hour cycle commute, just so you can arrive a minute early come on.



  • You both are talking past each other.

    The coffee Drinks/ preparations that still define coffee today are not significantly changed by the US outside of the context of US chains, they largely are of Italian origin with some other countries preparations included and some re-popularized recently under the banner of 3rd wave coffee.

    Third Wave Coffee definitely does exist and is significant change in coffee culture that was sparked probably in the US, but it largely is concerned not with drink preparation and selection but with coffee growing and roasting, moving from blended and darker roasted to single origin (traceable) and lighter roasted coffee. This change being sparked in the US, does not make the phenomenon US specific, much like Hippie culture was US lead it still was a global thing like third wave Coffee is as well.

    does not exist in Europe. At least not outside of Starbucks or maybe McDonalds. The Italians still drink the same espresso from Lavazza or illy as they always did, the German still buy their filter coffee from Jacobs and Tchibo, just like in the 1960s.

    This is not true, Europe is as much of a leader in third wave Coffee as the US and Australia, but the people drinking and selling Lavazza or Tchibo are the the same people (or their kids) as the people drinking it in the 60s, a different smaller demographic: smaller roasters, young people and people interested in coffee; have largely embraced third wave coffee globally.

    I can find a third wave coffee place in every German city >200k pop, often even a roaster, and all international cities > 1M pop will have at least 10 different such shops. People that aren’t plugged into the culture of third wave will not recognize these shops as significantly different to other places serving coffee first. Much like a person might not recognize differences in craft beer or specific nuances among teas if they are unfamiliar with the space. This does not mean these differences don’t exist.

    Third wave even though it was arguably started/inspired around Starbucks, is nowadays as opposed to the Starbucks way of doing coffee as it is opposed to the other large corporate incumbents including Tchibo Nestle and such. Fair trade although nowadays largely rejected by third wave for direct import relationships, is in some ways 2nd/3rd wave adjacent, as both argue and act for more equitable trade as well as pro social and pro environmental production.

    So even though third wave can be expensive and probably originates in the US, this does not invalidate the concept for the rest of the world. To me third wave is good coffee with legacy European small roasters, German/Italian Eiskaffe, Nordic Filter, French and Austrian Coffeehouse being fine to good and everything else being sorta bad but still coffee. Every time I’ve taken my parents to a third wave place they’ve liked it at least as much but often more than my second category which is where their platonic ideal probably was, but they don’t search out for them like me because they’ve formed their coffee habits 3+ decades ago when 3rd wave wasn’t a thing. The better traditional Coffee places in Germany have moved in the direction of third wave as their premium/local legacy roasters have moved in this direction.

    And don’t get me started on the “third wave”, a marketing term coined by some hipsters in Los Angeles or New York to sell overpriced “specialty” coffee to other hipsters from San Francisco or Boston.

    Of course specialty and 3rd wave are marketing terms, but there is real and good Praxis behind them which imo. makes for better tasting coffee and maybe a better coffee industry.

    The price hit is significant with beans costing 2+ times as much as legacy roasters, but for prepared coffee there is essentially no difference in price. The differences here are more explained by (foot traffic customers)/(commercial rent) where it is served than anything else, you can get coffee that is cheaper but just barely. Almost nowhere will serve anything under 2€, and specialty espresso/batch filter are typically under 3€ (Germany).
