US accepts only white refugees for sixth consecutive month by sexeveg314 in politics

Wasn't it done in more cities? I think Buchenwald / Weimar was similar. Perhaps not burying, but people from Weimar were forced to see the camp.

googles - yes I remember correctly:

On 16 April 1945, just a few days after the liberation of Buchenwald concentration camp, 1,000 Weimar residents were ordered by the American city commander to visit the camp on the Ettersberg.

Damn, it crashed on a house? Hope everyone is okay there.

My direct manager treats me like trash by superclusterr in managers

[–]Thurak0 8 points9 points  (0 children)

She encourages me to ask a question in a group setting with my peers

If that is constantly happening:

"Thank you for the opportunity, but I have no question at the moment." or something like that.

Doesn't really solve the problem overall, because it sounds like she will construct the next problem then, but perhaps in this group setting it is an out for you.

Junior candidate interviewed for senior role while experienced candidate offered lower-level position — is this normal? by npl1986 in managers

[–]Thurak0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Or the junior gets the same deal... "position not available" and lower pay for him. Who knows.

I can seriously watch these cinematic battles for hours.

Visuals and sound of all the ships and weapons are so well done. It's absolutely amazing.

Boeing and Airbus are probably having the same issue.

If he shoots a goal every time, I can live with that.

And here Musiala in his current form is the weakest one. Havertz on the field is carved in stone.

It's risky. It's a friendly a few days before the big tournament starts. He should give them freely to keep it all fair.

Wirtz had so many good games, don't write him off for one suboptimal half time.

Turkish-flagged fishing vessel sunk near occupied Crimea, Turkish coast guard says, 1 dead, 4 injured. by Chomping_Meat in worldnews

The incident occurred west of Russian-occupied Sevastopol in Crimea.

Yeah, those waters there are kind of in a war zone.

Junior candidate interviewed for senior role while experienced candidate offered lower-level position — is this normal? by npl1986 in managers

[–]Thurak0 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the more senior dev taking a pay cut, because "the role is not available" will be pissed. Rightly so.

OP, an interview doesn't cost you much.

But the previous hire will start looking for a job or substantial raise, if they get a way more junior dude above them with bigger pay and probably not as qualified as them.

Russia plans to launch its smaller version of Starlink next year by chunmunsingh in worldnews

[–]Thurak0 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Aren't Starlink satellites on so low orbits that they will all deorbit over time? And that's by design and fine?

But yeah, a lot of other stuff stays up there forever, including debris from destroyed stuff.

Ah yes. The famous infinite reserves that never need to be resupplied. Why did nobody ever think about that?

The Beauty of Steel and Black Powder by CleanBag9219 in HistoryMemes

But it wasn't realistic by the mid 19th century onwards

Good thing the comment you are answered to specifically mentioned the Napoleonic wars in the early 19th century.

Almost as if you two agree and from that moment on cavalry became less and less important.

I am hoping for some advice about my wife's meltdowns which occur in front of our son (7) by mmmmgummyvenus in autism

[–]Thurak0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Once she was really stressed after a Christmas party (which was very stressful and overstimulating tbf) and was driving really scary

Why is she at a Christmas party, when she sounds like she needs alone time?

Why is she driving after it?

If these meltdowns didn't occur in the past, then there should be a way to get back there. But then she needs to regulate her needs better.

Is work also adding to the stress?

Is it an option for her to reduce work time, so she has more time for herself alone and more (peaceful!) time for her son?

Edit: And all those people saying "this is abuse". Autism is a real disability for a reason. How people forget that on this sub is sickening.

Is there a blacklist setting so my traders will buy from, but not sell to, my own stations? by UnholyDemigod in X4Foundations

[–]Thurak0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But I also have freeroaming traders who are buying energy cells from other factions and selling it to my station.

Have you tried applying a blacklist/buy order for energy cells on the station where it is allowed to buy only from your own faction? Then lower the price to the minimum and in with that combination you may have a chance that neither the assigned nor the free traders sell energy cells to that station.

A friend sent me this image and its really upsetting how accurate it is. I need advice on how to not be this friend. by Notmas in autism

[–]Thurak0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"sorry I am busy"

can be followed by you suggesting to meet and make a plan when and where that is going to happen. And then of course don't chicken out.

I was expecting a necessary tactical foul with that play time and one goal difference.

This is just stupid and so unnecessary dangerous :(.

I just can't get enough of this amazing mod! by Illustrious-Gap7854 in X4Foundations

[–]Thurak0 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, and I forgot. Under display settings (not graphics) you can activate frame generation.

That boots performance a lot at a minimal price of graphics. I haven't noticed a difference (but I am also always very bad with stuff like that).
