  IMO this is one of the best crime thrillers by a long shot… If you ignore the Scrubs-move at the end that is

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Five flavors 🤤⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I like their stuff, but I’ll admit that a ton of it sounds the same. On the other hand, people almost always complain when bands go “experimental”, so I consider it a somewhat good thing actually

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Kitty car trip⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Please don’t start that shit again. I got a headache already

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is this shitpost enough⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Creepee

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Germany announces temporary border checks at all land borders⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  As much as I would like to hate it, the numbers prove them right. Not only do they catch human trafficers, but they also loads of convicts trying to cross the borders as well as smugglers. Germany lies very central in Europe. Turns out a lot is going through here.

  Hardly helps with the real problems, like proper integration, fighting the causes of emigration or extremists of all kinds operating from and in Germany, but it’s better than nothing.

  In the end, a Heinz a conquered GB. Eat that Brits!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How Telegram's Founder Pavel Durov Became a Culture War Martyr⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Ya know, Signal has been audited multiple times. It’s OSS. IT sec elite has looked at it and says it’s sound. If anything is plausible, it would be your device spying on you rather than Signal.

  What’s weird tho is how people think this has anything do with messaging or data privacy. This is about Telegram being used as a public platform. They can’t force Durov to decrypt anything, nor do they need to, because they already know your groups…

  CC FU-GO-AWAY 1.0

  Let’s go full guerilla: Plugin that lets you select the first and the last frame of an ad, thus allows to report the beginning and length to a synced database. When that frame is found in the buffer, skip X frames ahead.

  For ergonomics, the plugin should be able to spot cuts in the video so you can easily select the correct frames.

  For resilience, maybe settle for similar frames. Thinking about anti-abuse, maybe require a minimum number of reports relative to the views (and ofc allow to not skip stuff).

  And if I don’t?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Pills (Take Two)⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I thought exactly the same about controlling a millilitre of water. You could straight up behead people on sight and leave basically no trace at all - just a suspiciously clean cut

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Which German websites help disseminate pro-Russian narratives⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  “Anti-Spiegel” is hilarious. “Der Spiegel” (The Mirror) is a reputable German media outlet.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fear the fish women!⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I love fish women. Way better than bash women.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Lasagna and Chicken⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This is so stupid, I love it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨windons⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Still amazing that they will copy everything from GNOME and Plasma but the “Are you sure?” on shutdown/logout/restart

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Progress!⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  One day Steve said: You know what? Keeping a prisoner a life for a thousand years is fucking expensive. What if we didn’t have to?

  And from that conversation our company was born. Little did we know that death sentence is still a thing or that humans don’t even live that long. But boy did we scam some investors.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨One of the problems of working on the weekends.⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  There’s another problem here. You can have much nicer Whiskey, even on the low-end. Singleton 12 years and Roe & Co. come to mind for ~ 20 a bottle. Both not bad at all for the price.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨To chill in the basement of course!⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Cause Earth disc rotated, duh

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨gaming⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I think it’s absolutely hilarious that there are people who genuinely think it’s better to ban violent video games than to take away the stuff that enables you to shoot people. If only there were any crime statistics that prove beyond any doubt they’re dead wrong. Sigh.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨acceptable screws⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The best goddamn type of screw you will ever screw. No slipping, no stripping - you torque, it goes in.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨acceptable screws⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Everyone who does not want torx and nothing but torx has never screwed torx screws.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Meat.⁩ ⁨⁨7⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Damn gay liberals putting their dick in the German’s meat to make them vote for statutory health insurance

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Real!⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s really a mix of German and English words with some shifting in pronunciation. Once you know both languages, learning Dutch is quite easy. You will make out a lot of words pretty quickly.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Damn freeloaders takin' all the jobs!⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s kinda hard to overwhelm the job market tho, at least if the economy is growing. In that case, more workers would likely facilitate growth, since the growing workforce will also have money to spend and create demand. If the market was already very competitive, things would be different, but developed countries are usually hungry for skilled workers. Demographics dictate this will only become more true as time passes

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Cock check⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  ♀️?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨DO NOT MERGE⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s why there are draft merge requests nowadays. Although I kinda miss the “DONT MERGE WE GONNA DIE” comments.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨‘Baldur’s Gate 3’ Studio CEO Refutes Ubisoft’s Subscription Model Comments⁩ ⁨⁨9⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  The industry chases whatever makes the most money. It’s the artists who are fortunate and/or hardworking enough to not do that who I aspire - and who’s games I want to play.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Derek⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  For me staying up is easy in general. Give me 10h night shifts, I don’t care. As long as you never make me get up early that is.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Just a lil bit⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Lucky you, I’m into that shit

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's a vibe⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Of course not, it’s just a running gag that everyone is in denial about boys posting in that community (or formerly the subreddit)
