Für diesen Schindluder wurde Energie verbraucht und unsere Erde ein bisschen mehr verpestet.

I’m intrigued by the border between salad and broth.

Have we seen any evidence that they were in fact carrying drugs?

I’ve known some rich Swiss in my life, and I can guarantee you that none of them would leave Switzerland over taxes, or any other reason for that matter.

Danke für die Info! Kartoffel vs. Rosenkohl ist ein würdiges Finale. (Und das Beste ist, dass man im echten Leben beides gleichzeitig essen kann.)

Ah ok, danke.

Ich verstehe immer noch nicht, wo man dieses Gemüseturnier findet…? Wenn ich nach “Gemuese” suche, kommt gar nichts, weder Posts noch Communities…?

I think he was just trying to recreate Searle’s Chinese Room.

Ticino surprised me.

Danke - nutze ich schon bei entsprechenden Kabeln. Aber ich habe hier einige Lichterketten mit “Verzweigungen” usw., da ist das leider kaum anwendbar.

Das… kann ich irgendwie nur schwer glauben, aber ich probiere es definitiv aus. Schlechter als mit Aufwickeln kann es auf jeden Fall nicht laufen. Danke für die Anregung!

Was auch immer im Verborgenen mit Kabeln geschieht, ist das beste Argument gegen ein positivistisches Weltbild.

I know Mamdani has yet to actually show his true colours and capabilities once in office, but so far I’m hugely impressed with him. He manages to win over people with his charm and smart rhetoric (e. g. Fox’s Martha MacCallum in that interview, now Trump) while - importantly - staying consistent on message. Many politicians in a similar situation would’ve toned it down, but in the Oval Office Mamdani 1) repeated his main talking points (affordability, rent, buses, groceries…), 2) called himself a democratic socialist, 3) called the situation in Gaza a genocide, 4) did not deny Trump being a fascist (although Trump helped him on that one).
Being secure and steadfast on your own convictions actually gives you the liberty to work across the aisle without having to fear losing yourself or your constituents.

Hasan made a good point today that supports what you said: On a normal day, Trump is surrounded by people like JD Vance, Lindsey Graham, Pete Hegseth etc. - slimy spineless weirdos. Even to an asshole like Trump, it’s probably a breath of fresh air to have to deal with a completely normal, cool guy for a change.

I’m kind of amazed that they weren’t leaked a long time ago already. But I guess potential whistleblowers are aware it could literally be their death if they got found out.

Jews really have a knack for annoying nazis, don’t they?

Trans people really have a knack for riling up bigots, don’t they?

Women really have a knack for attracting rapists, don’t they?

Totoro for me

Einself!

Ah geil, ich verstehe Katalanisch!

What are your plans and expectations? How long do you want to stay? Do you want it to be a long-term relationship? Do you want to get married to her, have kids? If not, do you want to visit regularly? Are you willing/not willing to substantially support her/the family? etc.
As this is an unusual situation (which isn’t a value judgment), I think it’s important to really think these things through, and then communicate them openly. But also understand that many cultures (including Cambodian, I think) tend to prefer subtle hints over direct communication, so in order to really understand her expectations, it might be helpful to get opinions by some Cambodian third party (I’m sure there’s some English-language Cambodian forum you can turn to for that).
