Oh wow! In switzerland there is immense political pressure beause health insurance is very expensive.

I pay 6300 per year.

Those are things that regulate the tension in the overhead cables on train tracks. With the variation of temperature cables tend to contract/expand and this systems allows the cables to do so freely with a constant tension provided by the weights.

that's indeed a pretty strong message...

A concentration camp is a form of internment camp for confining political prisoners or politically targeted demographics, such as members of national or minority ethnic groups, on the grounds of state security, or for exploitation or punishment.

Tigers with horns 😨😨 ?

I think the same artist made other drawings that make clear that it is supposed to be transfem tintin. But I am open to Schrödinger's transtintin.

They just found rocks that are naturally hot and boiled water with it... Engineering is a scam.

The post on my screen was cut off at "skinny white man arrives", and I think it was perfect.

I can follow you around and make sure that your beer, bread, wine, meat and sausages are edible... To ensure you don't get food poisoning ofc!

To be fair, "they" could probably train AI on Lemmy data, they just won't ask for permission and won't be charged for it

I am offended because there is something that looks like a swiss flag. It probably has another symbolism, but I don't like my country being associated to the KKK

that's scary how dementia works :'(

I may even argue that it is not normal that someone has more that one billion :)

Drivers would not be inconvenienced by people crossing the street if they were not so big. People on foot (or even bikes) pass each other seemlessly unless it's really dense. The fault of drivers having to wait at an intersection with people on foot is their own.

Here again, drivers block to only legal way for people on foot. I think it's fair to just go over.

The manga being called "frieren the slayer" is a bit of spoiler. It was really chilling how the name "frieren the slayer" was revealed in the anime. It was definetly my favourite scene in the anime

Not that you will care: Switzerland passed a similar constitutional amendment in 2021, with no exception for religious purposes. It was proposed by a right wing party with barely hidden anti-muslim sentiment. It's one of the many recent moves that, in my view, makes my country more vulnerable to authoritarian drifts as it makes it harder to conceal one's identity in protests. There is a difference it seems to the law discussed in this article in that in switzerland the fine is not automatic. it only occurs when someone refuses to uncover their face when asked to.

That character is drawn really cute :3 Congrats to the artist :3 You have won my heart :3
