It's the year of the Linux desktop.

It is of course to good a story to be true:

In 2018, a faked snapshot of a UESP page was shared online which falsely stated that, during production of Morrowind, Kirkbride was found under the influence of psychoactive drugs by Todd Howard after being absent from work, paired with a photograph it claimed was taken by Howard of the incident.[49] In truth, no such UESP page ever existed; the story is a fabrication.[49] The image was taken from a music video, fat, that Kirkbride had filmed and uploaded to YouTube in 2013, many years after his time working on Morrowind (the video depicts Kirkbride lethargically overeating as Wesley Willis' I'm Sorry That I Got Fat plays).[50] Lady Nerevar said of the video's misuse, "If you told me that a dumb video we made for fun was going to generate a wholeass conspiracy theory that real life people would ask me about [...] None of that happened in any way, shape, or form".

With regard to the hoax and exaggerated accounts of his writing The 36 Lessons of Vivec, Kirkbride said "You know that comes from a Photoshopped image, right? [...] that’s all a lie. I’ve already given an account of how the 36 [Lessons] were written: a week of bourbon, smokes, and solitude."[52] Kirkbride has repeatedly refuted internet myths that he used recreational drugs[52][53][54][55] and has said that the myths annoy him "more than a little bit".[56] Related rumors that he was dismissed from the company are likewise unfounded; Kirkbride left Bethesda for Zenimax's studio in California,[1] remained involved in the production of Morrowind after leaving the studio,[25] and continued to contribute to subsequent titles.[1][5][9][11]

Apple adheres to the principle of form over function, instead of the old but still valid form follows function design principle. But TBH I never liked their stuff or their over the top big cheese attitude. So it's not a disgruntled apple user writing this.

I think we should include nuclear waste in the output calculation of nuclear power plants. Just the high level waste from nuclear power plants is hundreds of thousands times more radioactive and toxic than coal plant output.

But your are right, we should move away from both of these: coal and nuclear power. And this is actually exactly what the German people want and what the government has decided. Ending coal burning is scheduled for 2038 and complete switch to renewable energy production is scheduled for 2045. This is called the Energiewende (Energy Transition) and here is the government's page on this topic: https://www.bundesregierung.de/breg-de/schwerpunkte/klimaschutz/faq-energiewende-2067498

Germans agree with this policy and we even want it faster: https://www.fr.de/wirtschaft/78-prozent-der-deutschen-wollen-eine-schnellere-energiewende-zr-92219363.html

There is no current facility for storing nuclear waste in a safe manner in Germany. Most of the high level waste is stored on the surface near the waste production sites. Let's take a look at the dangers of plutonium-239: If inhaled a minute dose will be enough to increase the cancer risk to 100%. If ingested a minute dose is almost as dangerous because of it's heavy metal toxicity. It's half life is about 24k years. "It has been estimated that a pound (454 grams) of plutonium inhaled as plutonium oxide dust could give cancer to two million people." (1) So IMHO it's very irresponsible to create more nuclear waste, as long as we as a society have no way to get rid of it in a safe manner. 100% renewable is achievable and I think we should concentrate on this path since it will be safer and also cheaper in the long run.

We can not use nuclear energy as long as we do not know what to do with the waste. IMHO it's as easy as that.

Beschlagnahmte Geldwerte gehen an die entsprechende Landes- oder Bundeskasse und natürlich nicht an die Polizei, wir sind ja nicht in den USA.

Schwierig, weil durch §86a StGB geregelt ist das die Flagge nicht verwendet werden darf. https://dejure.org/gesetze/StGB/86a.html

Allerdings gibt es Ausnahmen:

(4) Die Absätze 1 und 2 gelten nicht, wenn die Handlung der staatsbürgerlichen Aufklärung, der Abwehr verfassungswidriger Bestrebungen, der Kunst oder der Wissenschaft, der Forschung oder der Lehre, der Berichterstattung über Vorgänge des Zeitgeschehens oder der Geschichte oder ähnlichen Zwecken dient.

In wie weit die Verbrennung der Flagge unter diesen Absatz fällt, kann ich nicht beurteilen.

IMHO sport is a misnomer. "Game" seems more fitting to me.

IMHO knowing one thing is enough: It's Meta. That's enough information to never use it. They're interested in collecting and selling your data. Threads is not the product, the users are.

Je älter man ist desto fairerere Preise/Mieten hat man bekommen. Das ist aber nicht die Schuld der Mieter/Käufer sondern eine Konsequenz der Marktentwicklung. Wir, als Gesellschaft, haben zugelassen das Wohnraum zum Spekulationsobjekt wird. Jetzt mit dem Finger auf die Älteren zu zeigen ist weder richtig noch zielführend. Die Personen/Körperschaften die Wohnraum besitzen, den sie nicht selbst nutzen sind IMHO das Problem. Siehe z.B.: https://www.blickpunkt-wiso.de/post/mietenwahnsinn-der-markt-wirds-nicht-richten--2262.html

Zusätzlich muss man die Verteilung der Altersgruppen auf ländliche und städtische Umgebung berücksichtigen: Es ist deutlich zu sehen, dass ein größerer Anteil der älteren Bevölkerung auf dem Land wohnt, während sich die jüngere Bevölkerung in Städten konzentriert, wo die Wohnraumsituation deutlich angespannter ist.
