How the fuck was Uber supposed to help traffic? That's the most American take on solving traffic issues I've read in a while.

Sunwise, as it was based on the movement of the sun during day (in the Northern hemisphere). As watch faces were modelled after sundials, sunwise and clockwise describe the same direction.

Turnwise is a word invented by Pratchett for a book, but it's clearly based on sunwise. He also used widdershins in his book, which is indeed the unmodified antonym to sunwise.

Me: I want to play games until I get fat

Konami: yo, there you go

Me: damn, that was a bad idea, I need to go work out in a gym

Konami: I'm way ahead of you

Coming from the Land of Muesli, it's really quite simple and it's really the same way we eat any cereal over here:

• put Muesli in a small bowl
• add fresh (ideally cold) cow milk
• eat it all with a spoon (quickly, before it loses most texture and becomes a soggy pulp / porridge-like)

If you like it a bit sweeter, mix a fruit yoghurt into it. Personally, I add the yoghurt after the Muesli and stir/mix it a bit before adding the milk.

Of course you can also add fresh sweet fruits (bananas, apples, strawberries, peaches, etc.) cut into slices/cubes.

If you prefer vegan milk alternatives, oat milk works great. Honestly, I think a good oat milk complements the Muesli (which usually contains oats) better than cow milk and I would suggest everyone try it.

If you use 1 rubel coins, sure. Personally, I prefer to splurge on TP.

Let me know once the 50 rubel note is cheaper than a sheet of TP.

Phu, echt fies den nach Bayern zu schicken!

I'm 38 and can only agree that's how I expect life at 40 to be

Dude, 100Mbps isn't good enough anymore either

I think some of us also had hopes that the new CEO would put a leash on Musk and steer Twitter into calmer waters again, but this was just proof that Musk is still doing wtf he wants and the CEO is just there for show. So people have now abandoned their last bit of hope and therefore abandoned T...I mean X as well.

While I haven't been an active user in a longer time, I've still been a very active lurker until Musk took over. By now, I've only checked Twitter every now and then when bored, to see what happened (as I mostly used Twitter as some kind of news feeds for stuff I couldn't easily follow in any other way). But today I started migrating off completely - going through my follow list one by one and finding ways to follow those things (like local police, local town, local zoo, etc.) in other ways.

For some that means slower news, or only the most important news - which kinda sucks, as e.g. local police info were good to have in real time during major events or when there was some protest going on. For some this even means mailing lists, ugh.

And a few I couldn't replace at all, so I'll miss out on those news. Sucks, but hopefully those people/entities will provide their news feed through some better means sometime now.

X.com was the startup Musk (and others) launched in 1999. It merged with another startup to create PayPal in 2000. Musk bought the X.com domain back a few years ago.

So yea, he's been obsessed with the letter X for a while. Other than SpaceX, there's also Tesla Model X.

Doesn't matter, it drives user engagement and website traffic. Easy way to show to advertisers that Reddit is very much alive. They don't care what is drawn, as long as it's nothing illegal or bad for advertisers. People want to spend 24h to write "fuck u/spez"? Sure, whatever.

Ich sehe den Wahlslogan schon vor mir. "Waehlt die AfD mit Substanz!"

Ein Genie, dieser Merz, so gelingt es der Union garantiert gegen die AfD ohne Substanz zu gewinnen!
