You can game “now” ? 🤨

Well, you can… in fact you you could also before… but it's technically correct

True! My original point though is that just providing a hash for a downloaded file is generally not required. It doesn't provide anything that other layers haven't already (a hash only guarantees integrity, while downloading over HTTPS provides authenticity). Personally, I see them as a relic of the past that made more sense when transmission was less robust (though even back then, a lot of layers provided some sort of error detection and correction), and modern filesystems can detect errors as well.

Und da wird immer über die faule Jugend gemeckert

Those must have been really helpful in 1999.

Smoking became disgusting when the campain against smoking became effective.

Bullshit. My non-smoking parents called smoking disgusting in the 80s and probably before that. It became disgusting when addicts smoked everywhere without consideration for others, like in restaurants or on trains.

So what many people perceive as a disgusting habbit today is the effect of conditioning and propaganda. Smokers also had long lasting relations with non-smokers, now it is unthinkable a smoker and a non-smoker to even go out for a coffee together.

The fuck are you on about? I have no problem doing stuff with smokers and have had nobody ever claiming otherwise. Just don't smoke in a way that affects me.

I am also surprised this discussion has gone so far so long and nobody has mentioned sugar and its bi-products (soft drinks, candy, sweets, ...) Is there such an addiction recognized and known as dangerous?

Nice whataboutism. Btw, as far as I know, the same bodies pushing for regulating smoking and drinking more are also in favor of addressing this issue. And now matter how relevant it might be, your just detailing here.

Type-B diabetes has become common even for kids, especially in the west.

Sorry, I know types 1 and 2 only.

The sweetest thing you will find in China doesn't even taste sweet, and if you offer a middle eastern pastry to a Chinese person they put half a spoon in their mouth and think they are about to die.

Which China?

WTF. Die allermeisten Kriege der letzten 50 Jahre wurden durch Diplomatie beendet btw. “Immer mehr Waffen” alleine bringt es einfach nicht.

Ja, Diplomatie funktioniert allerdings nur, solange die Gegenseite dazu bereit ist, und Russland in diesem Fall ist es nicht, wenn sie das Gefühl haben, die Gegenseite sei militärisch unterlegen.

Mir wäre Grün Linksrot lieber. Die gefühlte Hälfte der SPD-Plakate hier versprechen stabile Renten. Und dann noch mehr Innenministerium nach Fäser? Und einen Bundeskanzler, der sich leider nicht an Details zum größten Steuerbetrug der Geschichte der Republik erinnern kann?

Klar, unironisch besser als Merz. Aber ich sähe die SPD lieber als Juniorpartner der Grünen.

Aber wenn wir es realistisch betrachten, ist RRG das beste Ergebnis. Auch wenn ich weiß, dass es vier schwierige Jahre werden, unabhängig davon, wer gewählt wird.

Or three, depending on how you count it.

Well, people do take Xanax recreationally. If you want to get an impression, read /r/xanax

So are amphetamine, methamphetamine, MDMA, LSD, DXM, heroin,...

See a pattern?

Edit: in case people are wondering, I'm not saying "OMG big pharma is a drug dealer" but rather that a lot of substances have been researched in a pharmaceutical context, and often these were found to have effects beyond their main one. And sometimes, people just self-medicate.

Not even in Israel, all Jews agree with how things are handled by the government (and I'm well aware that Israel isn't all Jews, but also various Arab ethnicities).

Just because a person is Jewish doesn't mean they need to justify why they oppose the government of Israel. I'm not pressing Christians here either about whether they oppose the actions of the Trump administration which is heavily influenced by evangelicals. But this is unfortunately where Antisemitism kicks in: it's the thinking that Jews are a kind of global cabal, and everyone living in diaspora is a kind of agent. So they're responsible for any bad actions done by Jews anywhere.
