Die Petition an den Bundestag zur Wiedereinführung der Vermögenssteuer haben bereits am ersten Tag über 4.000 Menschen gezeichnet. Ab 30.000 muss sich der Bundestag damit beschäftigen.

Jetzt mal alle ran, die keine Millionen besitzen, aber intakte Infrastruktur, funktionierende Kinderbetreuung und moderne Krankenhäuser für ganz coole Sachen halten.

@Tom_ofB @SteveDuncan So I think technically Kessler Syndrome has already started, because if we stop launching stuff now, the rate of collisions would continue to increase (which is the technical definition, I think). But the timescale between collisions right now is long-ish. It'll get real bad when that timescale gets to days or hours.
Wie vorbereitet kannst du als Zivilgesellschaft auf das Ankommen der Polizei-Spezialeinheit sein? Schon.

People are shocked to discover they need to fact-check ChatGPT and I'm having the uncomfortable realization that they never fact-checked their uncle's Facebook posts, their friend's medical advice, or literally anything Google's top result told them, and suddenly the last decade makes sense...
Sorry to say…

If you hate the automatic, auto-generated dubbing and translations on #Youtube, then this might be a browser addon for you: https://github.com/YouG-o/YouTube_No_Translation

For #Chrome, #Firefox, and #Safari (DIY).

The auto-dubs and auto-translations of titles and descriptions are some of the worst things Google has ever done on that site, JFC

GitHub - YouG-o/YouTube_No_Translation: A web browser add-on that prevents YouTube's automatic translations! It keeps titles, descriptions, and audio in their original language.

To illustrate just how much of a challenge this is, we need to cross the pond to LA. And perhaps the pinacle of poor bus shade design.

La Sombrita. The design of this is so notoriously bad that I, a geek who's never set foot in the US has heard how bad it is.

This is a cautionary tale of the competing obstacles to proper people centred infrastructure. Announced with some fanfair as a shade solution for bus users in LA. It's been universally mocked. But how did it happen?
