You’ve got a few episodes of Love Death and Robots that really have that twilight Zone feel (and some are set in space!). That’s also the case for the pacman episode of Secret Level. This one gave me chills down my spine. 😅

Yeah… they’re already in a bad spot. But one can always dig oneself into a deeper hole.
The US won’t annex Greenland, that would basically make a pariah of them on the international scene. Like Russia there would be economic sanctions, trade deals would be broken, american assets abroad would be seized and this could include american military bases. So yeah, most likely the US governmint is gonna keep acting like a childish bully trying to drive a wedge between Greenland and Denmark. And maybe between every european nations…
But regarding the chinese government, I’m not sure we can call it communist anymore. Authoritarian, imperialist, oppressive and bellicose are more accurate qualifiers; mainly thanks to president Xi.
Nerdwriter once made a video about how Passengers could have been a horror/thriller (and a better movie) if it had been told through the point of view of Jennifer Lawrence instead of Chris Pratt’s. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gksxu-yeWcU
Was in the same position a few months ago. My only satisfaction was that I’d be able to open a union division in the company. I would have been able to better the working conditions of my colleagues (and mine!) while learning the work of a union representative. Sadly they fired me before I could do that. But now I found a paying job in a non-profit organization and I feel like a human being again!
Well, think of WHO as the 'least bad source of information", not the absolute truth provider. To get closer to the truth, you’d need to do a bit of journalist work: do a background check on the scientists involved (what have they published? Is their work respected by their peers? Have they been approached by lobbies?) and compare different sources (for instance, look at what the Robert Koch Institut in Germany and the Institut Pasteur in France have to say). But, to do that you might need to speak several languages, but above all, you would need a lot of time for research. So checking the most reliable source is generally the practical course of action for most people.
Like mathematician August Ferdinand Möbius, at 77, in Leipzig?
You should take everything you hear on the internet with a grain of salt (including here). You should really trust the guidelines of your country’s health ministry or the WHO. Then again, the WHO has said some crazy shit in the past…
No need to shame people for their spelling. You never know, the person in question might not be a native english speaker or could have dislexia.
Isn’t that the definition of taxation and redistribution of wealth?
My last phone with standard Google Android had a 5000 mAh battery while the new degoogled has one with a bit more than 6000 mAh I think. Even then I feel the overall increase in battery life cannot be explained with hardware only. Without watching videos or playing games, I only have to charge my new phone every 3-4 days. And I’ve background apps like syncthing running all the time. I’ve just checked there’s actually a few other open source forks of android other than LineageOS. If you’re disappointed with it.
Ha! That’s one of the reasons I switched to a degoogled android phone. The extra battery life is quite noticeable.
It’s not online but at my usual bar I often get into arguments with a monarchist guy and a free-market/deregulation dude. They often tell me they’ll someday manage to make me “take the red pill”. It’s kind of annoying for them to disregard my views like that. That’s why I don’t actively try to change theirs.
