Not to be confused with “Panzerschokolade” (tank chocolate), distributed in the 1940s, which was chocolate with meth.

Yes, that’s true, but more of an edge case. Something like gasoline is commonly priced in fractional cents, tho:
- Comment on Majority of AI Researchers Say Tech Industry Is Pouring Billions Into a Dead End 2 weeks ago:
No, 2,50€ is 2€ and 50ct, 2.50€ is wrong in this system. 2,500€ is also wrong (for currency, where you only care for two digits after the comma), 2.500€ is 2500€

That’s not correct. “Mining” is a reward structure for people processing transactions. Every transaction costs a lot of energy

- Comment on Are there bots on mastodon that act like humans 4 weeks ago:
That sounds like you’re planning to waste a bunch of people’s time. Not sure what your intent is, but if label it correctly (as AI), few people are going to talk to it like a person, and if you don’t, that’s a dick move and will also get you banned.
- Comment on Are there bots on mastodon that act like humans 4 weeks ago:
If you want to talk to bots just go on reddit or twitter /s

Once upon a time, before the Nazi killing was reserved for online lobbies, Call of Duty had games take place in World War 2.

- Comment on Flohmarkt - a Fediverse replacement for Facebook Marketplace 1 month ago:
You’re in a thread complaining about a software using a German name for it’s German meaning. Your example for a ‘good German name’ is an English word that has German origins.
- Comment on Flohmarkt - a Fediverse replacement for Facebook Marketplace 1 month ago:
Uber is a loan word. Doesn’t matter how your perceive it, that doesn’t make it a more German. So is iceberg.
- Comment on Flohmarkt - a Fediverse replacement for Facebook Marketplace 1 month ago:
You’re in a thread complaining about a software using a German name for it’s German meaning (Flohmarkt means flea market). Your example for a ‘good German name’ is an English word that has German origins. Don’t you see how those are different?
- Comment on Flohmarkt - a Fediverse replacement for Facebook Marketplace 1 month ago:
‘uber’ is an English word with a German ethnology. ‘über’ is a German word. That’s like saying iceberg is German. u and ü are different letters. They are pronounced differently and change the meaning of words (e.g. ‘Schuppe’ means scale, ‘Schüppe’ means shovel)
- Comment on Flohmarkt - a Fediverse replacement for Facebook Marketplace 1 month ago:
über? which you’d spell ueber, if you can’t type ü
- Comment on Flohmarkt - a Fediverse replacement for Facebook Marketplace 1 month ago:
Like eBay, Facebook, Twitter, Amazon?
- Comment on Flohmarkt - a Fediverse replacement for Facebook Marketplace 1 month ago:
Which is also reasonably close to the German pronunciation (which is something like Flo-marked to an English speaker)
- Comment on Flohmarkt - a Fediverse replacement for Facebook Marketplace 1 month ago:
Uber isn’t a German word tho?
- Comment on Germany's far-right 'firewall' under strain as migration debate flares 2 months ago:
BILD is a far-right tabloid rag and should never be cited. Also, the ‘discussion’ about these attacks misses important details:
In December a Saudi man drove a car through a crowded Christmas market in Magdeburg
The man in question was an AfD supporter, the fascist party currently being enabled by Merz. He was also already known to the police
