   come on, another german trait is that everyone believes that everyone is to be fooled easily. People are not that stupid. Most just do not care.

   Rather useful in this case could be an adaptive method. First, you update every 50ms until you circled in the moment when the second toggles. Then you can do sleep(1) again and save resources. Alternatively, use time() to only sleep the rem

    Oh yes, by reducing speed, we could maybe reduce the number of accidents and thus reduce the travel time. BUT - after few years, the drivers will adjust! they will still drive slower, but a little more risky. All the savings will vanish.

    using variable-width fonts is especially great for editing LaTeX code, because no intendations are necessary here. It gives me a WYSIWYG feeling.

    another feature request: ZIP and upload. This is because I prefer to ZIP several images of an event and upload them afterwards. Thank you! If one file is selected, make ZIP of this one file - then upload. If multiple files are selected, ask

    the older gtk-theme was better, more well rounded. Too much different colors here. Dirty - not clean. But, hey, I hope it's not final. Also too much spacings everywhere. The fonts are still okay, even though fedora has a more unique appeara

    the article says that accepting a low wage will make you independent. I wouldn't conclude like that. Working with low wages will seldomly enable to get a better standard. If you aren't a top performer, you'd have to live forever with those

    thanks for the article, but it has right the opposite direction than what is complained about here in Germany. we complain about the newly introduced Bachelor/Masters system here. We complain, students will now have less time to study and t
