I'm with you about how strange and bad our acceptance towards alcohol is. But that doesn't make fireworks automatically a good thing.

Vegetarisch oder vegan: Habeck hat im Regierungsflieger Fleisch gestrichen in c/[email protected]

Danke Herr Journalist für diese Geistreiche News.

Die halt auch tatsächlich keine News ist, wenn man den letzten relativierenden Satz liest:

Versöhnlich heißt es: "Wenn Teilnehmende unbedingt Fleisch auf ihrem Flug wollen, dann lässt sich das auch ändern."

Tatsächlich müsste die Schlagzeile heißen:

IM REGIERUNGSFLIEGER KANN GESPEIST WERDEN WAS MAN MÖCHTE!

Oh mein Gott. Wie lange ging der Flug? zwei Stunden? Sechs? Acht?

UN-ZU-MUTBAR. Stellt euch vor ihr dürftet ca 8h kein Fleisch zu euch nehmen. ACHT Stunden!

GESUNDHEITSGEFÄHRDEND!

Ich wähle jetzt CXU/AFD, für meinen stündlichen Fix!

That's a ok for me.

I don't think there is a sport out there where cannabis would actually help you win.

Rabbit data breach: all r1 responses ever given can be downloaded in c/technology
[–] Downcount 59 points 6 months ago

the most interesting key is for elevenlabs, which gives full privileges. this allows us to:

(...) delete voices (and crash the rabbitOS backend, thus rendering all r1 devices useless)

we have internal confirmation that the rabbit team is aware of this leaking of api keys and have chosen to ignore it. the api keys continue to be valid as of writing.

So there is a chance?

C-16 was my gateway drug into coding (self.plus4)

In the early 80s I saw my first C-64 at my cousins place. We gamed a lot and I so wanted one of those. I begged my parents like every month, while some of my friends were given C-64s in the meantime, telling me they will share with me all of their (not so rightfully copied) games. They finally gave in and gifted me smth at my next birthday. I unpacked it and ... shit, this wasn't a beloved C-64, it was a C-16. WTF parents? (I was a young brat and didn't really grasped the concept of being grateful at all.) They thought a Commodore is a Commodore, right?

So, with no games (I bought some good titles later on) I thought about what to do with this computer.

Hello

Syntax Error

hmmm

What's my name?

Syntax Error

Stupid computer... there has to be a way the computer learns my name...

Started to take baby steps in Basic.

10 Print "your name is Downcount"

run

This really made me some kind of happy.

Second "program" asked me "What's your name" just to print the result in an endless loop.

I began to be obsessed with this "great" Basic and started to write little and bigger programs as a hobby which many many years later led to being actually being paid for writing lines.

So: Thank you parents, sorry, I was such a brat and thank you C-16 for being such nice low entry device for learning about soft- and hardware.

German Alternative Hip Hop. I'll continue posting German music, because we have a lot to offer besides the boring mainstream. Next post will be another Berlin Rapper. I'll follow up with some Punk and Post Punk.
