I think this gave me a brain aneurism…wth.

I had no cancer, but know people that did and one thing that came up often is that people tend to distance themselves from them. Not in a mean way, but dealing with special needs is tedious and that is often just a cause to not do certain things. Spending time together (no matter what you end up doing) gives a sense of normalcy and can really push someone to keep fighting. Cancer is a marathon with additional sprints (chemo) on top. Not being alone through all of this is a huge help

They have to list their legal contact. Write them an e-mail there and quote the GDPR. Request a confirmation.

He’s not just being polite but he made the conscious decision that this store is the one he wants to support because they were willing to lose revenue in order to help the customer.

I think it points to the character on the left that looks a bit like a character from “Among us”. And they used the available icons to write a name close enough to that (Abong up)

But that’s just a guess…

I…don’t get it. This is an old way to help a child that has something stuck in their throat. I mean, the heimlich maneuver was first described in 1974, so I guess this WAS in fact the best technique at the time. Keeping someone from suffocating is kind of important, and this seems like something you can do fast and easy (at least with a relatively small person).

Their concern is not solely based on the gene modification. The impact of introducing a new crop is bigger than that. The golden rice is patented and that often comes with a ton of regulations the local farmers have no control over.

While I wish for there to be a good way to solve the food problem AND find a good use for gene modification, I don’t think that this particular instance is it…

Uh…if she’s doing shadow puppets, then why is she not looking at the shadows she’s casting but directly into the light instead?

How do they know that you wrote it yourself and didn’t just steal it?

This is a rule to protect themselves. If there is ever a case around this, they can push the blame to the person that committed the code for breaking that rule.

E-scooter und Pedelecs haben sich auch durchgesetzt, obwohl am Anfang auch viele gesagt haben, dass das nichts bringt.

Am Ende des Tages wird sich aber einfach zeigen müssen ob die Kosten, der Nutzen und die Nachteile so in Einklang gebracht werden können, dass sich für den Volocopter eine Nische ergibt. Der Volocopter ist das erste (echte) Modell in einem neuen Zweig der Verkehrsmittel. Ich glaube das kann durchaus nochmal spannend werden.

I think you already gave yourself the answer in your own case:

Because I give zero crap about what other people think of me.

This applies to people that aren’t in your inner circle. You want HER to be in that circle and suddenly it actually does matter what SHE thinks of you. You have little to lose with people you don’t really care about, but everything to lose with people you do care about. It’s an evil social twist that makes everything so complicated. High self-esteem is just the ability to quickly pull yourself up when you fall and the knowledge that you actually CAN do so. It mitigates the risks of “putting yourself out there”.

Ich denke es gibt durchaus Dinge, die mit einer Drohne nicht gemacht werden können und für die ein Helikopter zu Overkill wäre. Die Lücke zwischen diesen beiden Systemen zu schließen finde ich jetzt nicht sinnlos. Ob sich das durchsetzen wird ist natürlich eine andere Frage und hängt stark vom Preis des Volocopters und der zugehörigen Infrastruktur ab.

Ich sag ja nicht, dass das System die Lösung aller Probleme ist. Elektrische Antriebe besitzen trotzdem gewisse Vorteile gegenüber Verbrennern. Zum Beispiel die Einsatzgeachwindigkeit. Du kannst dich einsetzen und sofort losfliegen.

Hubschrauber sind sehr kompliziert in der Bedienung und können daher nur von Menschen bedient werden, die eine recht lange Ausbildung gemacht haben. Auch die Wartung und der Betrieb von einem Hubschrauber ist sehr teuer.

Das Flugtaxi könnte zum Beispiel die mittellangen und zeitkritischen Transportwege abdecken. Zum Beispiel auch für den Transport von Spender Organen und so.

Bei der Feuerwehr sehe Ich tatsächlich auch weniger Einsatzgebiete. Aber das hängt auch davon ab, wie sehr sich der Copter modifizieren lässt. Eventuell wäre auch da ein Einsatz zur Bergung von Personen möglich.

Ich glaube der große Vorteil von einem Volocopter ist einfach seine relativ kleine Größe, sein elektrischer Antrieb und die einfache Bedienung.

Well…they 'how’l all the fricken time without being asked!

Addiction is not something you can control. In a way she was sick and there is not very much she could have done. Sure, “don’t take drugs while pregnant” or “don’t get pregnant while being an addict” sound like obvious things, but drugs can cloud your judgement.

And that is before you even think about what constitutes as a “someone”. I don’t even want to start the discussion on it, but there IS the question of when a fetus counts as another life/person.

Not op, but I really liked this video, as it explains quite a bit. It is of course a biased video, but still…

Clonezilla is the tool I use after all else has failed. I agree that it is difficult to use, but it can do things others can’t. I saved quite a few of my drives with this thing. So while I try to avoid having to use it, it still belongs in my toolkit.

They want him to fall into the water.

When you move around the corner like this, the last in line suddenly has to move around the corner really fast to stay in line…or they get thrown off.

What the hack?
