Sehr gut. Dann erleben die hoffentlich mal Konsequenzen für ihr Handeln.

Verstehe ich das richtig, dass in dem Torrent alles ungeschwärzt dabei ist, inklusive personenbezogener Daten?

I can't tell you if it's worth the money, that's for you to decide. The used prices are really high, even compared to more modern consoles (you can almost certainly get a used Switch Lite for significantly less). But the DS family of systems is awesome and the clamshell design makes them so much more portable than even a Switch Lite. It can go in a pocket and when you're done you just close the lid to put it to sleep.

The best system from the DS family is arguably one of the "New" 3DS/2DS systems. They are really easy to hack and that gives you access to a huge library of excellent 3DS, DS, GBA and homebrew games and ports natively and through emulation you also get GB, GBC, NES, SNES and even som N64 games (and likely some non Nintendo systems as well).

I love my 3DS and I play it probably just as much as my Switch 2. I recently beat the Ocarina of Time 3DS remaster and had a blast!

Ich meine nicht unbedingt rechtliche Konsequenzen.

lol. Meinst du die hätten das sonst nicht mitbekommen oder wie?

If the law says you can't drive with THC metabolites in your blood, and you do so anyway, then you're not innocent in the sense of the law. And it's an easy law not to break.

Comparing requiring people who want to drive not to smoke weed all the time (if you're not a habitual smoker you're not going to be over the limit unless you smoked recently) with shooting people is so ridiculous it doesn't even warrant a response.

I don't find it unreasonable at all to expect people to make a choice between driving and smoking weed habitually. Certainly more reasonable than expecting everyone else to put up with stoned drivers so stoners don't have to cut back on their habit if they want to drive. And it's not like I have an issue with stoners. I used to smoke a ton of weed myself. But that doesn't mean I'm okay with sharing the road with them.

Also, I'm sure we both agree that weed should be legal and I can tell you, as someone from a country that legalised quite recently, that it's going to be a tough sell if you don't accept some limitations on driving.

If you have some great idea on how to reliably tell if someone is currently high, then let's hear it. And it better not be to let the cop who pulled you over decide whether you look stoned or not.

Except it does stop intoxicated drivers. And I will say if the law says it's illegal to drive with X amount of THC metabolites in your blood stream and you are over that limit because you smoked weed, then you shouldn't be driving. Again: driving is a privilege. If you want to drive then it's up to you to stay under the limit and it isn't hard to do. If that means you can't smoke as much weed as you'd like to that's too bad.

The fact of the matter is that there simply is no way to reliably test whether someone is actively impaired from cannabis, due to the way THC is metabolised in the body. So we are stuck with the laws as they exist or the alternative is essentially letting people drive while high. How you can find that to be the better choice is honestly baffling to me.

What's your suggestion then? Because it simply isn't possible to reliably test whether someone is currently und the effect of cannabis. The alternative would be to not be able to enforce it at all. I really don't understand why you seem to have such an issue with this. Either don't smoke weed all the time or don't drive. It's not that hard.

There's a pretty easy way not to get busted. Either don't smoke so much you're over the limit seven days later or don't drive. Driving is a privilege and I'd rather some sober people aren't allowed to drive because of choices they themselves made, than allow some stoned people drive because the test isn't perfect.

I paid for movers my last two moves. It was expensive, but if you can afford it, it's totally worth it in my opinion. Instead of the move taking a whole weekend it was done in half a day both times.

And it's true: nobody wants to help with that shit. My friends offered, but the relief on their faces when I told them there was no need, was clearly visible.

As a middle aged man in lycra who enjoys riding road bikes fast for sport and is comfortable riding in traffic: That Forester guy sounds like a dick. One of the things that makes bikes so cool is that they come in all kinds of different shapes and sizes, optimised for different use cases. Road bikes are cool, but so are mountain bikes, cargo bikes, fixed gear bikes, dutch style upright bikes, etc. And even if countless near death experiences while cycling around cars have made me feel comfortable (or complacent?) riding in traffic, I still appreciate good cycling infrastructure. People deserve to be safe and every trip taken by bike instead of by car is a win.

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…

No need to worry there, I think I speak for all of us when I say: Trans rights are human rights! 🏳️‍⚧️

Mich betrifft das nicht (zu alt), aber ich finde es einfach nur noch asozial. Da entscheidet ein Haufen (größtenteils) alte Säcke im Bundestag sowas einfach über den Kopf der jungen Menschen hinweg. Junge Menschen, denen immer mehr abverlangt wird (vor allem gesehen in der Pandemie), zu Gunsten der restlichen Bevölkerung und ohne jede Dankbarkeit oder Gegenleistung.

Warum sollten Junge Menschen etwas für das Land tun (müssen), wenn sich dieses Land keine Gelegenheit entgehen lässt auf sie und ihre Zukunft zu scheißen. Aber klar, warum ihnen einen Grund geben etwas für den Rest von uns tun zu wollen, wenn man sie einfach zwingen kann...

Ich verlinke hier einfach mal den Artikel (Englisch) von dem Journalisten der im Chat war selbst. Von da sind auch die Screenshots: https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2025/03/trump-administration-accidentally-texted-me-its-war-plans/682151/

As others have said, Germany is not as bad as the US (at least as far as I can tell looking at the US from the outside), but it's still fucking terrible and will likely get worse under future governments, which are all but guaranteed to be right-wing, quite possibly including the outright fascists of the AfD.

Public transport is useless, especially the train network, which is horribly outdated technically and has been gutted by quasi-privatisation. Trains are frequently late or cancelled (which counts as on time for German Rail's statistics). If you don't live in a city you basically have to own a car because of this, especially in smaller towns where there might only be like two busses a day (or none at all). There are some small improvements being made in cities, but they are hugely lacking and slow. They will also likely not survive future governments, which are promising car-centric policies and trying to import the anti-cyclist culture war from the US.

So yeah, it's bleak and the future looks even bleaker. With how things are going politically at the moment urbanism will be the least of our worries though.

I don't get it. What am I looking at?

Das ist übrigens der einzige Artikel, den ich bisher gesehen habe, der das als das benennt was es war: ein Hitlergruß. Kein "an einen Hitlergruß erinnernde Geste" oder sonstiges Wischiwaschi

I honestly don't think this will lead to a massive black market like some people seem to think. I don't see big profit margins that would make cigarettes an attractive thing to sell illegally. You can only make them so expensive if you can just find someone older to buy them for you for the normal price.

Besides, smoking is pretty shit really. There aren't going to be loads of people willing to go through the hassle of getting cigarettes illegally when all they do is stink and give you cancer. Especially when the people who can't buy them will mostly be people who haven't had a chance to get addicted yet.

I think this will work and be a net positive in the long run.
