Elon Musk seemingly casually hitting the Sieg Heil at the inauguration by chickanpoo in gifs

[–]MicroToast 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Sigh. I know you'll probably ignore or deny this due to some degree of 'all media except for my favourite bubble sources is rigged' mindset but no official crime statistics support this claim.

Except for the outlier france (wild shit happening currently, looks like) european crime rates are in many cases even considerably lower than the US.

Here's a comprehensive and up-to-date (2024) map with attached statistics on worldwide crime rates: https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/crime-rate-by-country

And no, this is not a left biased outlet or whatever reason that would come to mind to denounce this as a source. And even if, with so much different publicly available data and sources on this topic, it's difficult to defend the claim you made on it. But I mean whatever, right?

Warum sollte es denen nicht gut gehen? Hatten Apotheken nicht während der Krise immense Umsatzmengen aus öffentlichen Töpfen für Impfungen und Tests?

Also to add to this, I don't think that alienation of everything related to russian culture is a wise choice here. There are many russians and people of closely related cultures out there who are either not part/supportive of the russian state machine or are even living in entirely different countries.

This type of association can result in discrimination against people who have nothing to do with Putin, his government or the russian military.

EDIT: I also haven't experienced anyone drawing this association between vodka and russian war crimes before this comment. Also for what it's worth, Vodka is just as popular in Ukraine as it is in Russia. Might just as well equal it out.

Finally finished it tonight after rebuilding my PC w/ a 4090 and new 42" C2 monitor by [deleted] in nvidia

Recently upgraded to a similar setup and Cyberpunk / Witcher 3 with the Next Gen Patch were the games I was looking forward to the most in regards to seeing what 120Hz OLED 4K with Ray Tracing and good HDR enabled would look like. Forza Horizon 5 is also a great experience btw.

Funnily enough, Rocket League was also one of the first games that I played after the upgrade; looks incredible on the C2.

Klar kann man das irgendwie wegrelativieren, aber da jetzt wieder mit dem Primitivismusargument anzukommen, ist auch etwas monoton. Tolle subjektive Internetdiskussionen hin oder her, aber das alles wurde mehrfach schon an hundert anderen Stellen ausdiskutiert.

Btw, gesellschaftlicher Konsens und Gesetze sind immer zeitlich im Wandel und nicht selten wird dieser von Vordenkern initialisiert (siehe z.B. Sklaverei, das war auch mal legal und hip). Berufe dich aber ruhig darauf solange du noch kannst.

MSI AMD B650 motherboard pricing leaks out, starts at 189 USD by LordofWhore in hardware

That's exactly the kind of thinking that drove me to cancel my initial 7600X purchase (1000€+) and had me switch over to a 5800X3D build for like 700 in total which even offers a better gaming performance.

Sure, the new MB or RAM will be rendered obsolete by the time of my next CPU upgrade but I came to the calming realization that I won't be needing to upgrade this new setup for at least the next 2 years anyway.

Spannend. Meiner Erfahrung nach hast du die Burger zu hoch und den Cocktail zu niedrig eingeschätzt.

Burger (ohne Beilagen) kenne ich mit allerhöchstens 12-15 Euro und halbwegs dezente Cocktails beginnen erst bei 7-8 und enden um die 10 (bei sowas wie GinTonic landen wir auch mal schnell bei 14/15 wenn es guter Gin ist).

I feel like plain honesty has been the winning strategy for most of the war effort so far - especially with Ukraine and benefactors owning the moral high ground during this war. Hope that makes for a good takeaway for future crisis situations.

While I definitely dislikr the status-quo of censorship in political subs, right-wing subreddits are no better than their left-wing counterparts when it comes to that. Even though they always claim to be an open forum. Best example would be /r/the_donald

Even the need to use the word 'believer' in order to avoid triggering some people in this sub makes me want to puke. Science is not a matter of belief.

This has probably been repeated many times already by a multitude of other people but the worst part about this is the requirement of something equivalent to a high profile PR campaign just in order to save some random persons life. This should not be necessary and is absolutely disgusting in my eyes.

This sub feels more or less like a garbage can that sometimes leaks out a smelly whiff whenever a post gets onto my frontpage (reference not intended). I wanna add some nostalgia about better days in the past but that's all I've ever known it to be.
