The only thing the article adds to the headline is that it’s not possible on new Intel chips. This article seems significantly better.

Cheese tests should be mandatory for all rockets, I say!

That sounds straight out of a comedy show.

Tbf it’s weird that boxes of gloves just have both pairs stuffed in them. I wouldn’t expect that, but I think I’d at least check.

That’s… that’s genius, actually.

I really liked the storms in Valheim. Probably not the best looking but they felt so impressive.

This channel has a lot of pretty game ambience, but isn’t limited to storms.

I really tried to like spiritfarer. It’s popular and conceptually my kind of game.

How tf did they manage to make it so awful. I still don’t understand. I played like 4 hours and not once had anything approaching fun. Even the emotional impact of the first storm was ruined by that terrible minigame.

That is so odd lol. I’ve heard from a friend that abused their systems to fuck with other trolls and never had an issue.

How does one get banned from Reddit lol

You’re trying unbearably hard to come across as smart. Try less.

Reading comprehension is for people who paid attention in school. Nerds.

Through a postcolonialist lens this is pretty clever. Use of civilized as a term to excuse the racist and expansionist actions of one’s own country, expansion which happens to have coincided with railways being central to industrial power. Now the colonized are civilized, are we the barbarians?

Unironically thinking like that is the real ape-brained behavior.

This reads different if the woman is an economist.

As someone who studied econ, I feel like I should take offense ;D

Degenerate, in slang more commonly degen, is more or less a term for a low-life or morally repugnant behavior. It seems to have been picked up by the stock market gambling community (which is kinda funny in this context, didn’t know that), but I recall it being a thing over a decade ago in the circles that community is enmeshed with, such as 4chan. Was used to denounce gays, masturbation, that kind of thing.

“Often try,” more like almost always. There isn’t a word in economics that I’ve regularly heard used correctly. Not a fucking one.

My favorite, which is not from Econ: degenerate.

Where is this from?

Or you could read the article and see that’s not even remotely the issue, and the title is as per usual misleading.

Germany planned 8 billion eur financial support for Ukraine this year. That’s been used up. So, no more monetary (!) aid unless they find some spare change in the budget, which they won’t.

And to preempt the next headline: Germany’s spending next year on Ukraine will be halved, yes… Because there’re plans for an international fund.

Also while “Olaf” is the one naying further spending, he’s not doing so independently of the ruling coalition. He has little agency.

Obligatory fuck Lindner and fuck the FDP.

They phrased it as “NATO allies are prosecuting a war they would like to win, while Russia is prosecuting a war it believes that it has to win” but yeah pretty much.

It’s wild that they’re spinning this as an economic failure for the west. Anything else - humanitarian, political? I’d totally agree with. But even the article gives the impression of an adult holding a flailing child at arm’s length. How blindly anti-west does one have to be to see that as a win for the child.

Online dating in 2001? What was that like?
