- Comment on What do you do with Nazi memorabilia? 5 months ago:
The eagle as a symbol predates the nazis - a lot. The „Reichsadler“ has been used since 800 A.D. as in the region that is now Germany:
The Reichsadler, i. e. the German Imperial Eagle, originated from a proto-heraldic emblem that was believed to have been used by Charlemagne, the first Frankish ruler whom the Pope crowned as Holy Roman Emperor in AD 800, and derived ultimately from the Aquila, i. e. eagle standard, of the ancient Roman army.

My guess is this is a licensing issue. As DVD rental they could rent all studios. Now many publishers do their own thing.
I’m in the process of buying a Blueray player when I realized physical media is no more expensive than buying from a platform like Amazon or apple. The difference is, I could sell and borrow my DVD just as I like without the risk of loosing everything because of one of the providers locking me out.

Use a service with card DAV support like posteo.de.
My contacts are synced between an iPhone, Linux Mint and a Mac. My Parter syncs between an iPhone and a Windows PC (Witt Thunderbird as mail Client).

There was a meme in Germany during Chancellor Merkel’s time in office. As soon as Merkel “expressed her utmost confidence” in someone, that person resigned shortly afterwards.

Be aware that a fast change in character could be a sign for a starting mental illness or a physical one affecting the brain.
If you feel, you are no longer able to reach your friend, talk to a professional how you could support your friend. And discussing based on logic and common sense might not be the way to help.
- Comment on The Weekly 'What are you playing?' Discussion - 25-09-2023 1 year ago:
Baldurs Gate 3 was released on Friday on Mac. I played the preview and some hours on parallels and am glad now I can play natively now.
My problem is, this world is to big. I like role playing my character, even if it is not optimal. I read every dialogue and think: “what would Hsslek (my Githyanki Dragonborn Wizard) do?”
The great thing is, after around 50 hours I now have a picture of my character. A curious mind, not always fitting into Githyanki society, but counting on the Githyanki Warrior who shares his fate and is becoming his lover.
