Interesting concept, looks really good! At the bottom, you have a micro-banner "Secured by positiveSSL", but the actual certificate (also for api.cake.me) is from Google Trust Services (i.e. default Cloudflare, who terminates your

If you're bored for a few hours, I can only recommend to take a look at the ICANN Zone File Access / CZDS. [1] There you can get a list of all delegated second-level domain names of most vanity TLDs. Most are quite small (less tha

It can be ignored (it's the equivalent to a "keep out" sign on a lawn), but I very much doubt Google et al. (Edit: Oops, Bing et al.) will actually ignore it.

Just to warn you: A friend of mine has an imported (Daihatsu) Kei car, and the replacement part situation can be rough .

Interesting, thanks for the insight! Hard to judge what's going on in the US sometimes from the other side of the pond :)

I'm not an American, but I would assume so? Or wouldn't they? If not so, is there a reason why not? "Murdering an oppositional politician in your own country" seems quite clean-cut bad and unjustified. I know your politi

I drink around a litre of black coffee a day now. It's the other way around for me: I sleep better (i.e. I feel better / less groggy the next morning) if I drink coffee at the evening. Sometimes I even drink coffee at 11pm. ¯\_(ツ)

In comparison: The average rent in Augsburg for a 60m³ flat is around 756 Euros ( way more for new contracts and furnished flats), the median net income in Germany is ~ 2244 Euros. One downside, if you're on the taller side, is that t

Interestingly, the keyboard has neither the W95 Windows key nor the contemporary one, but the XP to W7 era logo on it. Probably originally produced for some netbook from the late 00s, early 10s? Now I wonder how many warehouses are still fu

Isn't the main problem that they wanted to explicitly use Johansen's voice, didn't get permission and then (maybe[1]) circumvented it by using a voice imitator, while still publicly entertaining the idea that it's her v

Ha. Voice synthesizers and TTS systems (and NLP in general - dead electronics imitating this very intimately human thing, speech and language) always fascinated me, so far that this was a significant reason for me to study CS and computatio

No, it's a synthetic voice from suno.ai, sounds like a (very sad) American singer-songwriter.

Yeah, it's great to see this kind of impact on other, way bigger vendors.

I can't agree. It's not about national pride, IMO, but about the organic development of the language. Some of these terms date back to the pre-war period, think of the Zuse-1 era. Many IT words that used to be German were replac

I don't know - the word also exists in German as "lauwarm", but "laukalt" (lukecool), which does not share those problems, also does not exist (and AFAIK it's not a loan word from English, but a "normal&qu

If your local supermarket doesn't sell mustard in one kilo plastic buckets[1], you may not use enough of it. :P [1] https://haendlmaier.de/fileadmin/Files/Produkte/Diva-Senf/Mi...

If you pay European (German) energy prices, this very well may be the case, in my experience. For some Hetzner servers (especially from their "Server Auctions"), for domestic customers the cost of electricity alone, disregarding t

Was still a thing in the late 2000s, at least in my (european) internet bubble at the time. This was also one of the only ways for a broke middle schooler without a credit card to get a cool "real" domain. Combine it with dyndns,

For a practical demonstration: That's the reason decimal IPs work, too - i.e. http://3520653007/ is the same as http://209.216.230.207/ (and both will go to HN) - it's all just nice formating for

This may be a bit of a Berlin thing, though, and can't be generalised to Germany as a whole, IMO. :)

This is not true for Germany. The farmer protests in Germany were started by the government announcing that they want to increase taxes / drop tax brakes on diesel fuel ("Agrardiesel") and remove subsidies. You're thinki

I would very much hope that the available training data for "man fucking fish" is pretty sparse, maybe too sparse to build a training set. (I'm not as optimistic about the sparseness of beheading videos, though)

As far as I understand it, the main problem / risk is not that it's an eID system (which many EU countries already have), but that government CAs are being introduced into browsers and devices without the possibility of removing

Yeah, the data isn't super clean. English-German suggests "Abigail" - which just straight up isn't a German name at all.

Right, "way too quickly" probably isn't the right word, "faster than infrastructure and housing" would probably be better. :)

One of the problems in Munich is that all rapid public transport goes through the city centre, there is no loop around it like in Berlin. If you commute to the west you have to go through Hackerbrücke station - that's the one close to

I wonder if one could just replace the LED with a UV one, depending on the tolerances this kind of detection may still work while being visibly "off". :/
