Again no category for the farside of the moon.

Oh the productivity fallacy. AI making your job easier and saving you an hour a day doesn't mean that you'll spend this hour to do sport or even be able to use that hour as you please. We have cars (after trains, bicycles and horses) to get faster from A to B but at the same time the commute to work has grown. Many machines have been invented over the last millennia, yet we use this gain in productivity not to have more leisure time but to enforce consumerism onto the workers.

Just my opinion, but the overlap of those admiring the artistry of gothic cathedrals and those actually building a car like the Cybertruck is zero.

I don't see many of my 40-ish age who live healthy enough by exercising, going to work by bike or walking instead of car, so they can still be active, let alone productive when they enter retirement age.

> The EU is still a collection of different countries, with different languages, and the people in one country doesn't really care about what happens across their border or which new and up-and-coming company they have to offer.

14 million EU citizens who live (as of 2020) in a EU country other than their own beg to differ. I'm one of them and know about the plentiful of rights that I enjoy as a EU citizen to live in another country. There are dozens and dozens of cities that attract students and workers from all EU countries.

Regarding the single market, well the Brits are learning the hard way how easy the flow of goods and wares was when they were still part of it.

Quite shockingly Old Blighty hasn't been French for quite some time.

Even though the SIM was part of the car they bought, the SIM's contract is not in their name which means using the contract would be theft.

As usual, religion is to blame for this high rate:

> In 2020, the total fertility rate among ultra-Orthodox women in Israel was 6.6, while the rate among Arab women was 3.0, and among secular women, it was 2.0 — still well above the OECD average — according to a report from the Jerusalem Institute for Policy Research.

Hen or egg? To make it worse, for some it's simple in their nature to show some degree of anti-social behaviour. We all have to learn how to interact with others in a social manner, be it on the playground, school or internet.

We socialize here, just last month I read someone's comment about life in the Canadian country-side and realized he's the brother of a Youtuber I'm watching for years. The same happens on any other social platform be it in the internet or real life.

Here in Austria in fourth grade kids take a little test for their bicycling skill. Not that it matters much in a car-centric country, but people forget that cycling, even in company with a parent, give kids the chance to learn the necessary traffic rules. Why not have something similar for social media or as the problem seems to be general conduct in social media, educate the kids and give them better ways to raise the alarm when things to bad. Just banning kids won't help them much.

Reminds me of one of my earliest Ruby on Rails apps, some 14 years ago: Using the flickr api, the whole app white-labelled for custom domains etc... never got any traction.

Doesn't bother me with those measly 50GB my mail server is using in a month...

I have a Kirk Revolution frame sitting next to my desk waiting to be repainted as I don't like it's turquoise colour. Uncracked as many others out there. Looking at it as a very first puts the issue about cracking bottom brackets into a different light. How many other firsts in any tech do fail and show where the next iteration needs to happen? I think it's quite sad it didn't see any more iterations.

Sorry, missed that part about the seller GmbH still existing afterwards. But the next paragraph I linked goes into that as well: https://www.rosepartner.de/besteuerung-verkauf-gmbh-kauf.htm...

Seller GmbH sells their assets, profits are taxed accordingly. Only when taking that profit our the individual is taxed but as I mentioned above the Teileinkünfteverfahren, only 60% being taxed.

At least we still have inheritance tax, though it's somewhat broken for those you mentioned who are far too good at avoiding that tax.

Taxes are good and necessary to fund the government and social systems. You need a happy population to have a healthy economy. Poor people don't buy a new telly every two years...

The disclaimer is absolutely right, you should consult a qualified accountant because the rest of the article is wrong. First of all, it's not just about SaaS, but all GmbH. I don't see any reason why Germany should make exceptions for software companies as the author wishes for in the second-to-last paragraph.

In regards to taxation of a sale I can only point to this first google result: https://www.rosepartner.de/besteuerung-verkauf-gmbh-kauf.htm...

In cases where you personally owned the company, only 60% of the sale price will taxed. After this Teileinkünfteverfahren the 60% are indeed subject to your incomee tax. Even better as sales are consindered außergewöhne Einkünfte their taxation will follow the Fünftelregelungen where the sale profit is spread across five years. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/F%C3%BCnftelregelung Realistically you'll end up paying taxes comparable to the 10~20% you can expect in the US.

Edit: Sorry, missed that part about the seller GmbH still existing afterwards. But the next paragraph I linked goes into that as well: https://www.rosepartner.de/besteuerung-verkauf-gmbh-kauf.htm... Again, Teileinkünfteverfahren only 60% being taxed.

Have you missed the bit where Jones's lawyer sent a full copy of his phone to the plaintiff's legal team. Alex Jones says, no lies, a lot of things but the evidence that he lies is there https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2022/aug/03/alex-jones-s...

I'd be surprised if there weren't any safeguards to prevent Infowars from posting hate ever again.

I'd chip in just to have that shit destroyed and see them selling onions instead.

A real turning point for The Prodigy turning it from a producer-driven dance act into a proper band with a lead singer. Flint created a job in the act for himself not once but twice.

You're not a consumer if you have the need and money to buy this stuff.

Yeah, read a github issue on the topic, looks like this won't change. Tag with some spacer like `:` would be great, but the app would have to treat them differently from regular tags to be useful to me. Or maybe I'll make a pull request :-)

For the base model, but any upgrade on the Mac will kill that advantage instantly. For those keen enough to solder better parts on it the Mac Mini base model is the worst kind of barebone, filled with components that shouldn't even be produced anymore.

It won't do anything with the folders though. That's a pitty. I love putting my bookmarks into folders.

When importing existing Firefox bookmarks make sure to export those into the html file as linkding won't process the json backup file that Firefox can produce.

A simple 1L machine with portainer on it and connected by wireguard is what I run my self-hosted stuff at home. Five minutes later I have my own linkding. Thanks for the tip.

In 2008 I had a colleague who commuted from Birmingham to Lambeth. Sadly trains aren't as cheap as planes.

I have yet to buy one, but a walking pad under my height-adjustable table should allow me to do all those thing at the same spot while I keep working.
