Some of the voting results on https://abstimmung.eu/git/2024 are misleading. Votings are about a decision recommendation (Beschlussempfehlung) which sometimes negates the original request (Antrag), e.g., https:/

I wonder why these "forced updates till kaputt" do not fall under (malicious) property damage. It is not just Google: My Amazon Kindle gets less and less responsive the last years without any noteworthy functional improvements. Sa

AFAIK only certain dimensions are quantized in quantum physics, e.g., energy states. Position is none of them.

As a German, I am totally fine with that now allowed use of the apostrohe. But what I find really annoying is the rise of the Deppenleerzeichen (idiot's space). In proper German, you can rely on that a single thing is being denoted by

Indeed. "Logging in" implies some kind of long lasting session. And logging in conceptually only requires "identification" (e.g. via a username) but not necessarily "authentication" (e.g. via a password)

Let me nitpick: The headline alone is right: Tidal energy cannot be renewed. But that is true for all renewables like wind and solar, because "renewable" is a misnomer. Real renewal would violate thermodynamic's 2nd law. Wha
