Well, bad instructions still are bad instructions, regardless of the user.

What’s “TW”? I know “CW” for “content warning”.

Right?

another charge slapped on for lying to law enforcement
Context for Germany: You’re allowed to lie to law enforcement.
- Comment on Why are there silly license requirements? 1 week ago:
In Germany we have a law enforcement level below the police called “Ordnungsamt” (I’m not going to try to translate that). They are in charge of these minor misdemeanors (like parking wrong, littering, speeding, etc.) It’s entirely possible that their patrols randomly check dog owners, but personally I’ve never heard of that.

Thanks for catching that. I’m sure there must be a fish-specific term that’s eluding me.
- Comment on Why are there silly license requirements? 1 week ago:
Reasons for a license to fish (from a German perspective):
- You want people who fish to know when they can and cannot fish due to the fish’s recreation periods.
- You want people to know which kinds of fish they should and should not catch, in general.
- You want people to know how big a certain kind of fish needs to be before it can be extracted.
- You want a general overview of the number of people fishing in a general area to monitor overfishing.
License to have a dog:
- Costs a certain amount of money each month. This funds public cleaning of dog poop and free dog poop bags.
Lincense for a GMRS radio:
- To prevent too many people from crowding in the same channel.
- To be able to identify assholes who jam a channel with their broadcasts.

What a high it was when I did titration in high school and managed to get so close that the liquid appeared colorless unless you held a white sheet of paper next to it.
It was tinted, but just barely.

Nitpick: There are elevators which are fine to use in case of fire. They have protections against serving as a chimney and somehow ensure that the passengers have air to breathe.

- Comment on Is the Nintendo Switch 2 the end of innovative consoles? 2 weeks ago:
I think you’re blowing things out of proportion. None of the handhelds after the Gameboy were innovative. The GameCube didn’t bring anything new. The Wii U was just a beefed-up Wii.
So every other console has been the previous generation, but better.

Each their own or is there some partnership thingy going on? Or weekly rotations?
Or is it one big mandatory circular anus-washing meeting ‘to get to know each other’?

Each month I lean more towards the notion that FF devs are retarded. Why do you have to close the browser to clear the cookies rather than having a hard refresh do that?

I have no clue how this could be the case, but the issue really is gone in 134.0.2.

- Comment on YouTube not loading half the time. 3 weeks ago:
I’m 95% sure it’s a combination of Linux + Firefox + uBlock Origin and YouTube is trying to make me get rid of all three of those. Not gonna happen.
I mean, I could try disabling uBlock Origin, but either way I don’t get to see content, so what’s the point? 🥲

a free movie
That’s the point. The movie isn’t free. You pay for the admission by rimming that guy. If you don’t want to do that, go to a different cinema and pay with money.
- Comment on Contributing to the local economy 4 weeks ago:
I don’t see the point, since I would give up based on the perceived temperature way before any damage from the real temperature would occur.
- Comment on Contributing to the local economy 4 weeks ago:
I’d be curious if I could find enough clothes to be able to withstand these temperatures for half an hour. The coldest I’ve ever experienced was −20°C some 15 years ago.

Sorry, my German was leaking.
- Comment on Contributing to the local economy 4 weeks ago:
I’ve seen an ad on German television (yea, yea, I still do watch it) whose whole point was that Saturday should be a free day, but it’s marred by having to do grocery shopping. The climax of that ad was a woman shouting “Let’s take back our Saturdays” Braveheart style.
The ad is for a service that has people shopping for you. I wonder when their busiest day will be…

You can have your kink, but make sure you don’t need to call a paramedic.
Tying your big toe to your ear using a strapon dildo? Bad.
Doing the same thing using a chord with a quick-release you can easily press? Good.
