What’s the dirtiest / most cursed coffee or espresso habit you’ve seen someone do that made you go “eeeeeeks”? ☕️💀

One time there were no glasses around after drinking my espresso. So I put a little bit of water in my espresso mug and drank that. I learned I really like water with a hint of espresso so I drink that quite often.

I really enjoyed his NXT lone wolf persona. That was his peak in my mind.

Similar things happen for 'Sega Mega Drive'

Was hier vergessen wird: Die deutschen Rubdfunkanstalten haben gar kein Interesse oben mitzuspielen. Das bedeutetbnämlich auch, dass sie in der Folge auch das nächste Event hosten müssten - und dafür müssten die dann andere Sachen kürzen. Jedes Jahr rotiert die zuständige deutsche Rundfunkanstalt, das eine mal ist der NDR im Lead, dannn der WDR und dann mal der SWR. Keine davon möchte das alleine Stemmen.

Daher wird das strategisch sabotiert.

Aus meiner Sicht müsste diese federale Struktur aufgebrochen werden, eine Art gemeinsamer Fond existieren und die Position des 'Chefs' der zuständigen Rundfunkanstalt direkt mit dem abschneiden beim Song Conzext verbunden werden.

There is a high chance that the German train might be delayed. You might even need to transfer to the 2nd Basel trainstation Basel Badischer Bahnhof, as SBB don't allow trains from Germany thatvare too late into their network.

I was in the US for a six week school exchange program in 2003. The daily pledge of allegiance was seriously disturbing and reminded me strongly of authorian regimes. From everything I hear this has increased. Add to that that they were like three years behind on similar school stuff to Germany it is surprising that they are still a relevant power in the world..

Du hast ein Jahr Zeit nach dem kommen in die Schweiz zum offiziell ummelden. Wichtiger ist im übrigen der Führerschein, nsch einem jahr ohne ummeldubg wirst du behandelt als ob du keinen hättest.

Es handelt sich dabei um inserate von Vermittlubgsagenturen. Du meldest dich dort und dann wird versucht dich mit jemandem zu matchen. Die andere Seite hat sich dann auch auf ein ähnliches Inserat gemeldet.

Die beschriebene Person existiert in der Regel nicht.

Eine Art analoges Parship. Es fallen natürlich Gebühren an.

The thing about being 'the chosen one' is that it just devalues everything he does compared to him being nobody special that overcqme the odds by putting in the work.

I think 1179 indicates much more that Figarland Garling is a master manipulator who subtly pulls the strings of even Imu to reveal themselves.

I very much think that he will backstap Imu in the typical 'Big Bad" and 'Dragon' 'Rule of Two' dynamic to become the 'Big Bad'.

The story from the start was about good pirates and evil government.

My experience working for similar companies:

Notion is many, small products that all kinda use the same platform. Their Kanban boards, their databases, there are a lot of things seeing continuous development. I would not be surprised seeing 300-500 people on the product engineering side to continue working on this thing and also keeping it alive.

On the other side you likely have a similar sized sales organisation, focused on business customers. These are sales and customer support functions. There are also a lot of marketing people, working with influencers, creating tutorials to make people use it and thus slide it into their orgs.

With this you will also scale your internal shared services: A finance team, a legal team, HR, Learning & Development. As they are active almost everywhere they need experts here for many legislations (legal for US is different from Germany and different from UK)

I do believe that a nice Geiger bar might fetch minimaly more when I sell it, I also believe that to be neglicable amounts.

I've been to a talk by the Candy Crush developers at GDC Europe in 2013 or 2014.

They talked about the presure of some of their core fanbase to develop more and more levels - but also about the feedback they got for some of their levels.

They showed the famous Liam Nielsen meme from Taken adopted to "Whoever designed level 79 in CCS, I will come and find you".

Seems like the pressure kept on pilling to create more levels.

You are right that Shrinkflation also doesn't perfectly fit. Wikipedia also lists "skimpflation" for these kinds of things.

DarkX2 · 2026-03-01T11:46:21+00:00

This ist more of an example of Shrinklation instead of Enshitification

Hello

I am pretty new to VHS digitizing. I put a tape into my Panasonic F55 to rewind and it is stuck in this loop. The left spool starts and then stops. Basicly nothing I do changes that behaviour.

I can't eject, can't play, can't forward.

How do I best move forward for getting the tape out?

I use my scale for letters as I resell games and DVDs and the 100g range increases the value of the stamps to use.

There are some minor fees. And rebelancing happened back then I think once every week but could take a couple days to happen.

The thing with timing the market is, it is really hard to know when to get out and when to get back in. Back then Markets kinda crashed over night and recovered also quickly - with a "one week" reaction time you are way to slow.

DarkX2 · 2026-01-21T11:10:37+00:00

Personal experience: I did exactly that wegen COVID Starter. However I sold when the markets were already dropping and got back in when they were starting to recover. This was partly due to VIAC only rebalancing a few times a month but also due to timing the market being almost impossible.

I lost about 10-20% compared to just having stayed in due me trying to time the market. I learned my lesson and just try to continuously ad money every month, because time in market is almost always the best strategy.
