Oh, I totally read that as you talking from experience :)

Or do you mod somewhere else?

Since you’re on the same instance as me, I assume you are a mod/admin there. Let me use this opportunity to say thank you to you and all the other mods on feddit.org for helping to keep that place one of the most pleasant online spaces I’ve come across in my years on the internet. As far as I can tell from the outside you and the others are doing a great job.

In my experience the city information is not particularly reliable. If you geolocate my IP the city is always wrong.

When I was 13 I wrapped a fire cracker in tape apart from the end with the fuse (I thought it would be louder that way). It exploded in my hand as I lit it.

My hand was fine because of the tape but the full force of the blast came out the untaped end and shot fragments of paper and black powder right into my face and eyes.

Ended up having to get rushed to the hospital for emergency surgery. They basically removed several layers of skin from my face and scraped the debris from my eyeballs. After surgery I couldn’t see further than like 10cm from my face and the doctors told me either it would be permanent or I’d be able to see again in a week or so. Luckily it was the latter.

I got extremely lucky and made a full recovery.

Not to mention that the 2023 picture of the Brandenburg Gate was a sign of solidarity with Israel in response to the October 2023 attack on Israel where Hamas gleefully abducted, raped and murdered Israeli civilians, men women and children. It doesn’t matter what you think of Israel’s treatment of Palestinians or the subsequent response to the attack, there is no world in which such an attack could ever be justified (although I’ve seen plenty of attempts to try). Comparing modern Germany showing sympathy for such an attack with the Germany that perpetrated the holocaust is absurd and, in my opinion, quite disgusting.

In my honest opinion it’s not worth trying to get Jellyfin working if you plan to use an Apple TV as the client. The only client that is halfway decent for Apple TV is Swiftfin and it’s nowhere near as polished as Plex. The watched/unwatched indicators also don’t work currently (at least for me), which is a dealbreaker imo.

I’m running Plex and Jellyfin side by side. The only thing I’d use Jellyfin for is remote streaming. It’s a shame, because I really want to switch to Jellyfin, but it’s just not working for me because Apple TV support is so bad.

You clearly find it easy to stop doing things that are bad for you (drinking, drugs, eating meat), but you struggle to start doing things that are good for you (exercise, cooking, eating enough/well).

She was right. I still don’t do the bad stuff and started doing the good stuff and now my life is so much better. Ironically it was quitting the last bad thing (weed) which allowed me to start taking care of myself. It’s not enough to not hurt yourself, you have to be good to yourself too.

So platforms (rightfully) remove this song, but are happy to let him have an account and make money off his other songs? If they actually cared, he would have been banned a long time ago…

That’s not been my experience at all (also in Germany). Signal is super popular, especially with younger people (under 40). I don’t have a Whatsapp account and it’s super rare for it to be an issue.

tbf, if you’re not hostile to the US at this point, I’d seriously question your sanity. You don’t need to be a tankie for that.

Trust me. Being healthy feels great. In my early twenties I used to do all the drugs, smoked and drank every day. I didn’t have any obvious health issues, but I can tell you now, that being fit and healthy feels so much better. I used to feel pretty miserable, but now I feel like I can do anything. Self care is important for self love. You can still be happy, even with all the shit going on, but you need to look after yourself.

If that’s how you feel, fair enough, but I honestly don’t see much value in letting AI generate suicide emojis.

It has constraints.

It’s an AI text to emoji feature. You describe what you want and it generates a custom emoji from the prompt. Not super necessary of course, but it’s actually one of the more fun “Apple Intelligence” features.

I sometimes get dreams where I drink alcohol. I haven’t had a drink in over 5 years. I don’t think it has anything to do with wanting to drink, and more a fear of somehow accidentally drinking and fucking up my streak (even though I’m like 99% sure that if that were to happen, I’d not start drinking again).

DB uses this novel trick to avoid delays: they simply don’t count trains that don’t run at all as delayed. And then they also sometimes cancel trains for being delayed. They simply turn the train around before reaching it’s final stop so at least it’s somewhat on time running the other way.

It’s funny (and accurate) that they keep getting fucked over by Deutsche Bahn.

At my last job I was asked to get a certain cert as one of my yearly goals. When I asked for time to study, I was told to do it on my own time. I said “If you want me to do this on my own time, clearly it is optional and I’m not doing it.” and then I didn’t.

In my case there was no raise to be had from doing it though, so it was easier to refuse. Good luck!

The shit AfD voters come from the Oklahoma and Mississippi of Germany, Thuringia and Saxony.

That’s only kinda true. The east has way more Nazis, but just because the AfD is stronger there with 32% of the votes, doesn’t change the fact that 18% of West German voters voted for them too.
