I use Denmark English for sane date formatting.

Though I don’t know why that locale exists.

I don’t see an issue with OP bragging a little. It is difficult and time-consuming to install Gentoo for the first time. “😑” did a good job and should be proud of themselves for completing it!

No, because the Union utterly demolished the Confederates.

We can only guess whether the union would have become and remained a military dictatorship for 25 years if they had lost and fled to Hawai. That’s speculation.

After all, the ROC wasn’t a military dictatorship prior to the civil war either.

Not sure over here in Germany. Plenty of services are exempted from VAT.

The EU has standardized what is tax exempt though. You can read everything which falls under VAT here. The word “service” appears 472 times by the way.

More like the Union lost and fled to Hawaii. The ROC was the government prior to China’s civil war.

It’s not that much:

According to https://ourworldindata.org/consumption-based-co2 it’s less than 10% of China’s total emissions, meaning 90% of their emission comes from internal consumption. This is pretty bad considering China’s emissions per capita are worse than the UK adjusted for imports and exports.

Prizes are income, otherwise companiea would hold a raffle each month to determine your salary.

Honestly, it does sound a bit like a hardware defect somewhere. Usually everything should work OOTB unless you are doing something really specific.

If you haven’t already done so, try updating the BIOS.

You mentioned the RAM being fine - have you run Memtest86+ for several hours? One pass is usually not enough to rule out memory malfunctions.

If you have a spare drive, try installing Linux Mint on it. If it still crashes, you can rule out Windows (and if it doesn’t, you could install a clean Windows on that same drive and try again).

You could also purchase a cheap AM4 motherboard (they start at like 60 bucks) to check if the issues still occur and refund it within the return window.

I mean German fairy tales try to maximize Schadenfreude. Bad things happen to bad people - which is fun. Sure, the “bad things” are horrific but children don’t mind that usually.

I definitely remember reading a bunch of gruesome children stories as a child (and they were great)! Struwwelpeter and Max und Moritz are two funny children books with a couple of deaths.

You’re Indian tech software from the 80’s setting the kernel mailing list on fire?

They still are one of the major contributers to climate change and global pollution. Less shipping is always better.

In the US there isn’t but as far as I can tell, over here in Germany lawyers and doctors are not permitted to report past crimes. The damage has been done and there is no harm to prevent anymore, as such keeping confidentiality has a higher priority than the state’s desire to prosecute crimes.

Even if these groups become aware of future planned crimes, they are not obligated to report anything if they genuinely attempt to prevent the person from comitting the crime (except for murder, manslaughter, kidnapping/taking hostages, genocide or war crimes).

How does the nonexistant confidentiality of lawyers prevent them from deciding to stop being your lawyer and become a witness against you? I.e. you are accused of a crime, admit said crime to your lawyer, your lawyer then becomes a witness stating you admitted to the crime.

Maybe it’s because Mr. Controversial Gesture, alias Sir The Nazis Were Actually Leftists aka Dr. Only The AfD Can Save Germany rivals only Ford in his open support of fasism? You know, Henry Ford, the guy Adolf Hitler called “a great man”?

In a bar, 13% of guests openly wear nazi clothes, with swastikas and German military emblems.

Is it a nazi bar?

You wouldn’t have a notebook. Any and all stimuli would be banned as the purpose is making your experience horrible.

Also, you get incredibly mundane tasks as well. Maybe you’ll get a couple sheets of random symbols and are tasked to count a certain letter. And if you don’t do this task you can be laid off for underperforming.

Gleichschaltung took a bit of time for the nazis.

The Night of the Long Knives is only applicable if the judge herself were a nazi who is seen as a potential threat due to being slightly differently aligned than the main faction.

AI is worthless if you are unable to tell hallucination from fact.

But just like NP hard problems, verifying a given solution is much easier than coming up with one yourself.

Goddammit why do you English speaking people keep dropping letters from words you borrowed. Don’t you know it’s rude to break things someone lent you?

Please no.

The current UI is bad but it has charme. I like the inconsistency as more and more design tweaks piled on.

Any redesign risks keeping the UI bad but only removing the charme.
