Yeah, if you need those features. In my experience it’s often features only a very small fraction of people need that are cluttering the UI and make it impossible to find the features I actually need.

For me the UI was just almost unusable. While the features are very nice and mostly unmatched, there is just no way to find them. Also it really killed the battery of my phone. While hiking it was fine, but for real time turn by turn navigations my phone died in about 2h compared to 4 or so on other apps

And then you look at paintings from the Middle Ages and wonder how people evolved backwards

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

As a German I have to say that do this kind of regularly. But only with alcohol free wheat beer and grapefruit juice. Really great drink after sport or a long hike

Exactly. At this point it can’t be about convincing undecided voters (whoever is still undecided won’t pay attention to any of this and will still be undecided). It’s more about whether or not people can be arsed to go out of their homes to vote.

Saying this: Please vote (as long as you are not planning to vote for the convicted felon of course)

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This whole process of voting in the US seems very outdated to me (I am from Europe too).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

Based on the etymology ‘Satanbye’ would be more correct. But that might not carry the same meaning as your proposal

That is what I was hoping he is referring to. But if I’m completely honest, the “I will make myself King of Murica” approach sounds more realistic

Ich hab tatsächlich mal in einem Test gelesen, dass einige Elektromotorräder lauter sind als so manches Motorrad mit Verbrenner. Gilt natürlich nicht für das Standgeräusch an dem sich die Richtlinien orientieren

Isn’t that exactly the reason for the second amendment? From what I learned, it is not to go to the gun range because it’s fun, it is to fight the government if it goes rogue

I‘m not entirely sure, but I think a swan can break bones by hitting with its wings. So it might be not as easy as grabbing the neck

I‘m not from the US (Germany) and neither have I much experience with lactose free products. I know someone who is allergic to lactose though and when I was buying stuff for him he told me the exact brand of stuff I needed to get due to the issue I mentioned.

One interesting thing about lactose free products is, that most aren’t lactose free. They only contain the enzymes to digest the lactose. If you are lactose intolerant this is perfectly fine, but if you’re allergic to lactose it doesn’t change anything for you

Ich hab am Anfang gedacht du redest über eine normale Brotscheibe. Nutella auf der einen Seite und Butter auf der anderen. Da hatte ich kurz den Glauben an die Menschheit verloren

You were born after Covid, right?

Don’t worry, eventually your parents will die and you’ll be able to live in the whole house not just the basement.

Only if you don’t have to sell the house beforehand in order to be able to afford a nursing home for your parents
