even the little bits of grass around the peaks in foreground could actually be used. I’m amazed how risky cows behaviour is regarding to the abyss, and goats somehow are just completely not afraid of heights at all and hop around on 400 meter cliffs like a walk in the park. So you can grow food (meat+milk) on mountain sides during summer

thanks for the links!

Dutch has the same word: angst. In my experience it’s not as “heavy” as Angst in German, but rather interchangeable with “schrik hebben” or “bang zijn”. Though “angstig zijn” might be more of longer duration, like a character trait of a person.

In Germany they sometimes put solar on the south side of historic trash hills. Seems like a good idea I can’t think of downsides.

Played A short hike yesterday and it was great. Short indeed, but very casual, nice and relaxing.

I think the Chinese population is very much “under control” already with their state-capitalist system.

If you really live in a 500 yo house, the walls are probably like 1 meter thick full stone/brick and the windows are tiny. They stay cold in summer, it’s like living in a cave.

The much more common 60-100 yo houses on the other hand…

Passive cooling and designing buildings to not overheat during summer in the first place is the way. And phoenix or Las Vegas shouldn’t be much more than a gas station, they’re unlivable hellholes without permanently pumping enormous amounts of energy in.

Not just you. I hate AC. Awful being in hotel rooms where it’s AC all the way and you can’t even really open a window in the room. I get sore throat and usually they’re really noisy too, so I can’t sleep without earplugs. I very much prefer opening a window and airing thoroughly in the evening and then during the night leaving window on kip. Travelling many days or weeks in AC vehicles really makes me sick.

Money isn’t gone, resources are gone.

Cool, you fixed my issues!

The audio output still doesn’t default to the deck speakers, but after following your hint it is now at least easy to select it while in gaming mode.

I installed the decky loader, and as non-steam game Audiotube. It seems to work, doesn’t matter very much to me if keyboard shortcuts like next track don’t function, I usually listen to full albums or dj mixes of 1 or 2 hours.

but no financial state benefits at all for said kids, probably, if it depends on those same conservatives that are anti-divorce.

Culling unhatched eggs seems less cruel to me than culling <1 day hatchlings. Cute-bias, I know.

Seems to scale somewhat in Europe, talking many many millions of eggs per year too.

At least trying is better than nothing.

Not saying it’s perfect, but tech is advancing thought it would be interesting to add that to this thread…

The industry is slowly evolving away from it tho. I’ve seen “no chick killing” or something similar on labels in German shops.

Your vote does matter.

True. On the other hand if it’s in a situation where water can be scarce, it might cause a bit more water evapiration to send it down a waterfall instead of a pipe

Pretty sure geographically germany still has a few nice spots for it. Allgau, Schwarzwald, Pfälzerwald …

It’s just all these damn people with their damn towns and livelyhoods that are in the way.

Sure, it’s called Boarding School.

That’s 61 cm and 305 cm for like 95% of the world.

I think this hard divider in history is a false narrative. In a sense, the current war, is a continuation of the USSR falling apart, and exactly 1 of those quickly made treaties is to blame: the one that de-nuked ukraine in return for safety guarantees.
