It’s good to be proud of German values, but racism and being a nazi are not German values. Tolerance, punctuality and „Lüften“ are German values.

It’s still information, tho.

Is it? According to the Oxford dictionary, information are “facts or details about somebody/something”. Wouldn’t that make false information technically not information?

I don’t think the campaigns are about converting people, but more about getting people to care about voting for their candidate. At this point there is just no way people still don’t prefer one candidate over the other

Depends on their wealth. I am not sure if you can sue someone if you’re poor. Attorneys are expensive

From what I read is that republican led states usually make it harder to vote than democratic states, but I haven’t looked further into this.

Although maybe you technically actually are only voting for the elector in your state that then casts their vote on your behalf, I even read that there have been rare occasions where the state elector went against what their state voted for!?

This whole process of voting in the US seems very outdated to me (I am from Europe too). I know that it is hard to fundamentally change the system as long as nothing goes completely wrong. Germany had big loopholes in the constitution during the Republic of Weimar too. Changing this was easy after the total defeat during the Second World War. I have no idea how you could get through with updating the complete political system of a more or less „functional“ country. Even less if the country is as divided as the US is at the moment

whether they will bother to vote for their preferred candidate or just stay home

It’s more like vote or go to work. I really don’t get why this country doesn’t hold elections on a day where most people can participate. Actually I do get it, but I don’t get how people can still think of the USA as a democracy

You were born after Covid, right?

Well, in the tv series his shoes start burning if he doesn’t use his specific flash shoes. So surely he needs a special bike.

About handling you might be right, but I can’t image running at speeds faster than sound without crashing into everything either

That would be a great idea. I mean, I am more than twice as fast on a bike than by foot and I can drive more than 10 times as far. Just imagine what Flash could accomplish with a bike

I totally get it, why buy one expensive thing once, when you can buy cheap stuff that will cost more in the long run? 5 times 30 surely is cheaper than 1 times 150.

From my experience, there is just stuff where you don’t want to cheap out on. Don’t get me wrong, there is no need to buy „premium“ stuff when good stuff is about the same quality but cheaper, but buying cheap stuff, just because it is a little less than the good stuff usually never pays off for me

Might be. I am actually not quite sure about this

It is because you might create superheated water, which is not boiling while being above the boiling point. Since it can start boiling at any time, it can be a little dangerous to handle superheated water.

I am not sure about coffee, but heating water in a microwave may result in superheated water, which is above the boiling point without boiling. This can be quite dangerous, as it might start boiling at any time. In chemistry you usually put a boiling chip in the water when heating it in a test glass to avoid this.

I don’t. But I have never used it, nor do I intend to do so in the future. From what I heard I would hate it too if I had used it.

I think I remember reading somewhere, that people simply didn’t trust the washing machines and therefore didn’t use them. Adding a window made it possible to see what’s going on and build trust in the machines

Yeah, but it is a cool proof of concept. I’m sure that in the following years the tech will get better and something like this might be a viable spying solution, but hdds are luckily dying out in private PCs

It’s not about a camera, but I have read something about using a hard drive as a microphone by detecting the vibrations of the head. Here is a short article I found about this: https://hackaday.com/2019/03/13/hackers-turn-hard-drive-into-microphone-that-can-listen-in-on-your-computers-fan-whine/

You just need a bigger screen

Are you saying that if I had a kbin account instead of lemmy and mastodon, I could combine them two into the same?
