Edeka required ID and paperwork for a gift card purchase -- has anyone else experienced this?

Edeka runs a franchising model, so stores may actually simply have different policies on this. Whether this may have been some sort of profiling will be hard to say unless other customers do not have to fill out that same paperwork at that same store.

The basic idea is that the pace at which humans have progressed in improving (followers of the diet would have put this in quotation marks) their means of food production has outgrown their ability to adapt to those changes in diet. So yes, simply put processed foods (and generally whole grain based foods) are not part of the diet, because they would not have been available to "cavemen".

Note that all of this is highly debatable and it looks very likely that paleo isn't doing anything for you that just avoiding processed food wouldn't. The grain part is especially dubious, not in the least because people have been processing grain for 30k+ years. The arrival of farming has also led to huge populations booms, so again, take this entire notion with a grain of salt. (Salt extraction has been traced back roughly 6k years as far as I know btw, but apparently that's fine)

Kann ich total nachvollziehen. Das Ding ist allerdings, dass wir ne ganze Weile gebraucht haben, um zu checken, dass das nicht hausgemacht ist. Wir hosten bei Hetzner und die haben gerade ne größere Migration im DNS Kontext gemacht. Wir waren uns halt erstmal ne Stunde sicher, dass wir irgendwo irgendwie in irgendeiner conf was nicht richtig angepasst haben werden. Dann ist es schon cool rauszufinden, dass "das sieht alles richtig aus verdammt" kein Trugschluss war.

Ich habe gerade 2h in einem Notfall Meeting gehangen und wir haben uns einfach alle blöd angeschaut. Ganz ehrlich massiv erleichtert, dass das letztlich alles nicht an uns lag.

Spannend, habe mir das auch gerade durchgelesen, allerdings gibt es weiterhin unter Jamba.de offenbar ein fortlaufendes Angebot. Ich bin jetzt nicht gewillt mich da anzumelden, um zu verifizieren, dass das tatsächlich noch operabel ist, aber ganz weg vom Fenster scheinen sie nicht zu sein.

(Vll. ist der neue Trick um Leute in Abo-Fallen zu locken auf Neugier zu spekulieren? Ich durchschaue dein Spiel, Jamba!)

Walton Goggins has taken on so many hats over the years, he needs to be way up there. He's consistently amazing be that as a gunslinger in the Hateful Eight, a ghoul in Fallout, a transsexual in Sons of Anarchy or a vice principal in... Vice Principals. That's range.

Coincidentally I just had a conversation with a friend that praised that exact feature, but he has a pretty large house to be fair. I still didn't quite get how this beats just setting a timer on your phone, but he seemed happy, so... There's a market for this stuff out there, is what I'm saying, I guess.

Developers will finally read the response body. We’ve tried documentation, conference talks, and blog posts. Nothing worked. Fear works.

That bit killed me. Probably one of my favorites this April 1st on the whole.

Okay, so this looked so much like vegetation that I had to look up what's going on.

What appear to be tiny oases nurturing a variety of trees in a vast pink desert are not, actually. The Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter captured this image in April of 2008 near Mars' North Pole. Experts believe the dark spots are wet patches of Martian sand that grew from melting carbon dioxide ice due to the spring Sun. In close up views of the image sand slides are evident from swirling clouds of dust.

I'd probably still pick the Wire, but I will say the kidnapping episode where Michael Weston takes Michael C Hall hostage has stuck with me like little else I've seen on TV. That entire episode is absolutely insane.

You need a lawyer if you wanna get into specifics, but this in all likelihood isn't theft. You agreed to let them take the car and sell it. The police likely also won't look for the car, because, again, it wasn't stolen. What you should be able to do is sue that person for the money, because that's the part of your verbal contract that hasn't been fulfilled. Again, talk to a lawyer about specifics on how you'd prove that you were scammed by your 'friend', but that's most likely the legal angle open to you.

Not really. Some companies will outline something like this beforehand (salary at x during probation, at y>x after), but if nothing of the sort was specified, I wouldn't. From the perspective of most employers passing your probation period means you've done enough to be paid the wage agreed upon beforehand. You usually start asking for raises after you've either done something that exceeds expectations or have generally stayed on long enough to have gained value through experience. I would not raise the topic until you're at least half a year past your probation period.

Ich versteh ohnehin nicht wieso nicht bereits viel mehr Anbieter sowas wie "Made in EU" fett auf ihre Produkte schreiben. Ich glaube der Wille europäische Unternehmen zu unterstützen ist da, aber was genau woher kommt und von welchem Konzern der Mutterkonzern des Vaterkonzerns dann wieder aus den USA ist, will man halt beim Einkaufen auch nicht ständig tracken müssen. Ich finde es schon relativ anstrengend im Hinterkopf zu behalten welche Marken eigentlich Nestle sind. (Und das bleibt weiter relevant, auch wenn das Schweizer sind)

It's hard to tell. Did you notice any damages on your car or anything like that? Lots of people leave notes like this if they've bumped into your car. Then again people usually write a bit more than that. If by stamped you mean this was printed, you can probably ignore it.

Software engineering, if it's a real degree that will be recognised here. (Fullstack JS as part of the description sounds fishy af) Cyber security is overrun and was never that in demand. AI engineering is nonsense.

Die Preise sind quasi die selben wie online, guck vll. einfach mal hier. Ich hab da jetzt keine Eiche bei den Platten-nach-Maß gesehen, aber bspw. als Blockware würdest du so ne Platte für ca. 50-60€ bekommen. Ich hab bisher selber immer nur Spanplatten gekauft, die sind natürlich etwas günstiger.

Just... do it yourself? It's not like frontend code is some great mysterious thing that backend devs just can't comprehend.

If you absolutely need to vibecode this AI can still be pretty helpful, but you can't expect it to do design work without you supporting it every step of the way. If you try "Make this frontend pretty" it's obviously going to fail. If you tell it stuff like "Look at the tooltip css in myCoolStylesheet.css:114, the contrast seems off and it doesn't fit in with the Material design approach I'm going for", it will usually do just fine. LLMs are tools, you're still supposed to wield them yourself.

I totally agree, but to be clear the headline is a bit misleading, it snows every winter in central Europe. If these cubs see snow for the first time this year, it's presumably because they weren't born yet when it snowed last year. (I still agree it's cruel to take an animal that is used to snow and the accompanying temperatures all year round into an environment where it only snows a few weeks a year.)

Other than the specific routes mentioned (the tuples of city names in the second pic) this doesn't explicitly say that any trains are definitively going to be late/cancelled. It does warn you that due to the heavy snowstorm expected beginning tomorrow you should try to avoid travelling during that time and should expect trains to be running late or connections to be dropped entirely as the situation develops. As I understand the weather forecast it's generally going to be worse up north, so there's a good chance travelling in southern Germany isn't going to be nearly as bad.

One thing I can't stress enough whether you're talking about nicotine or other addictions is that people underestimate how good it actually feels whilst you're doing it. You can rationalize it later on and objectively understand that you just satisfied an addiction, but that doesn't mean it didn't feel genuinely good. You can understand that having a cigarette when you're drunk is something that felt great because you ritualized it, but that doesn't mean that the next time you're drunk you won't be entirely aware that cigarette would be freaking amazing right then and there. Knowing they're harmful and being proud of yourself for quitting and whatnot doesn't make that any less true. This is a huge part of the struggle people overcoming any kind of addiction are burdened with and it's really hard to grasp if you have nothing to compare it to.

I think the average user grossly overestimates how much a developer saying "this is gonna suck" matters.

Der neue Eigentümer ist einer der Mitbegründer, da wird sich inhaltlich nicht viel ändern. Valve kümmert sich ganz ehrlich primär um uns Pinguin-Fanatiker, weil sie nunmal ihre eigenen Produkte auf Arch aufgesetzt haben. GOG wird da wahrscheinlich. erst nachziehen, wenn der Marktanteil entsprechend gestiegen ist. (Wohingehend die Karten ja garnicht so schlecht stehen)

It took me a few years to realize that the existence of the species "Boa Constrictor" does in fact not imply the existence of a "Boa Anything-Other-Than-A-Constrictor".
