Don't know if I am hacker minded enough to take a look. But he has a point though... no-nonsense and a straight forward GUI back on the menu would be great. I hate how I am held hostage by shitty designer ideas. I am a power user.

Feels like a staccato of names. Werner, Hans, Bauer, Lange and others all over the place. "Hans helped Werner carry Bauer" caught my eye and most sentences start with a name. Of course it was dark and foggy as well. Lots of adject

Agreed. Writing is very hard. This is simple and repetitive in style. It is a writing style I would expect from fast paced. I came to see this as a warning sign. Didn't get through the sample and stopped reading. On the other hand I ha

Agree. It is a fallacy to assume full knowledge of all fallacies humanity did and still will invent to trick themselves to make opinion and fact interchangeable.

I am truly sorry to say so. This is very simplistic, aggressive and arrogant. I don't want to excuse what has happened but we are in desperate need for way more capable and resourceful political elites.

This isn't a dark side. It's the other side of the same coin and we try to tuck it away, keep it under the rug, hide it from light.

They call for blood. You call for blood. This won't lead to less blood. As I stated in my comment and as you casually confirmed. I don't want blood at all.

On the contrary. Our political elites are unable to find political and diplomatic answers. Resorting to bans and sanctions is weak. Inability and unwillingnes to talk to each other will make the people suffer. The ultimate suffering is civi

My solution to this problem... I put my trackball to the left despite being right handed. Didn't take too long to adjust.

A difficult topic. Everyone of us has a story to tell and a burden to carry. Focusses on some fierce nerds and misses all others. The gamut of personalties is vast. Got to try to bring out the best in people.

I read a lot. Novels, work related stuff. I also get old. As for now my fonts of choice are Bookerly and Atkinson Hyperledgible. Because from my experience they make it easier on my eyes. Noticably so. I would set them asap as global font i

So what to do now with that? It is the total opposite of "modern" work environments. Can't escape multitasking or can I?

I would like to have better type setting. It is a pleasure to have a nicely layouted and set page. My layman's take would be that the rendering engines have headroom to improve but most readers don't really care.

Reading is reading and thinking is thinking. Stop reading and find time to think. Also start doing or it remains theory and there's no reward, nothing gained. Can be writing, can be implementing stuff, can be teaching. Doesn't mat

I wanted to like the Culture Books. Didn't work out for me. Surface stories are weird to me and I don't have a knack in finding undelying things.

Sorry to say but tbh... the EU is viewed as a scrap yard where you dump politicians you can't afford to have around anymore in the national parliaments. And these guys shall now solve a problem for real despite having a track record of

That misses the point. Someone being off worse doesn't mean I am fine. Being comparably fine doesn't mean I have to sit in silence and wait until it is bad enough so that I am allowed to say something. I absolutely agree that othe

I don't believe in blacklisting. Something profound happened in your life and you're still putting back all the little pieces into a new and coherent view of your world. They could sense that without actually knowing. You're

I think liberal is rather a label, a brand to have something to be proud of. Actually our societies are very opressive. We have to function as expected at all times. As a parent I can tell you this is impossible. Toiling along and working t

I have few green teas left. Preference shifted to black teas and dark, roasted oolong teas. Still have Hubei Cui Lu and one green from Anji region. Another yellow tea. Neither has bitterness. I did have bitter green teas as well. Not much g

A rabbit hole. As I said. Some specialty teas could use a gentle steep. You are right. I like my method. Easy to use. Bitterness is not inherent to tea. I don't accept this in teas.

That is a rabbit hole. My personal advice if someone likes to care: Get a "professional" tea cupping/tasting set. No taste altering filter methods required. My best tea related purchase ever. Quality loose leaf tea from all o

Stop believing you're bad at drawing. Seriously... writing is much more demanding than drawing. If you can write you can exert so much more control over the pen than is needed for drawing. You need some time. Take your time to observe

No. Seems a minority gained too much influence. No idea why they are perceived as influential in the first place? They exhibit horrible behaviour. Letting go of Seuss seems like a small price to pay to get rid of them. But the sum total is
