You’ll remember that the Jews weren’t the only people the Nazis targeted - they weren’t even the first.

To add context: in the KZ Mauthausen (don’t know numbers for other KZ) only 20% of the people were Jewish. Most were Slavic, some other minority, political opponents or (basically also political opponents) people who refused to comply with the regime.

Churchill. Without him it’s not unlikely that the UK would’ve accepted Nazi Germany’s peace offer.

Euouae

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euouae

Euouae (/juː.ˈuː.iː/; sometimes spelled Evovae)[1] is an abbreviation used as a musical mnemonic in Latin psalters and other liturgical books of the Roman Rite. It stands for the syllables of the Latin words saeculorum Amen, taken from the Gloria Patri, a Christian doxology that concludes with the phrase in saecula saeculorum. Amen. The mnemonic is used to notate the variable melodic endings (differentiae) of psalm tones in Gregorian chant.

In some cases, the letters of Euouae may be further abbreviated to E—E.[2] A few books of English chant (notably Burgess and Palmer’s The Plainchant Gradual) make use of oioueae for the equivalent English phrase, “world without end. Amen”.

According to Guinness World Records, Euouae is the longest word in the English language consisting only of vowels, and also the English word with the most consecutive vowels.[3] As a mnemonic originating from Latin, it is unclear that it should count as an English word; however, it is found in the unabridged Collins English Dictionary.[4]

Which phone OS are you using?

Usually none, sometimes classical music, Viennese Classic especially

Cars should not be street legal. If I can get a ticket for not wearing my helmet, why do cars get a pass?

communist nations have been defeated by capitalist hegemony multiple times throughout history, mainly during the Cold War

You are aware of the many attempts in different countries to leave the USSR, right?

All of them were violently shut down, that’s why the system was able to keep going, but without violence against their own population the USSR would’ve collapsed much earlier.

Wait they’re supposed to be pronounced with J? Except JS obviously I pronounced them all with G

The reason is that there’s not an infinite amount of ressources. Integrating them properly works well as long as there are enough ressources, but when too many come in a too short timeframe it sadly does not work for all of them (also makes it much harder for them to get proficient at German since they can live in their own bubble and just talk in their native language).

(And we have many ressources, but we (Austria) took the most immigrants per capita of all central European countries, even significantly more than Germany which is known for having taken so many. We really are trying.)

There only are so many resources for them. Here in many European countries the main issue (I think) is that with the current numbers we fail to teach them all our language (it’s simply not possible without having more language teachers available, and apart from needing those teachers that also needs more money). Without knowing the language their professional development is massively hindered, causing many to remain lower class, and causing disproportionately high crime rates among certain groups.

This leads to further problems: In the big cities there already are schools where people who speak the local language are a minority (for example in a primary school near me they have two classes for each grade (1-4) for children who can’t speak German yet and one class for all grades together for German speaking children).

So guess what people do: They go to a district with less immigrants, while the districts with many immigrants keep getting more immigrants (since cost of living is low there and as pointed out earlier many struggle to leave lower class). We’re re-creating segregation. This makes it even harder for those people to leave lower class, since they have no networking opportunities but only know others from lower class instead.

Even the left wing parties are now saying that we have to reduce immigration and instead integrate immigrants better.

Each car has a maximum towing capacity (which is limited by a few factors, including brakes). If you often tow things upwards you’ll want a bigger motor to still accelerate in a reasonable time (I subconsciously assumed that everyone is towing things upwards because I live in a mountainous region, but I guess people from flat areas won’t tow things upwards). Downwards should be fine either way if you’re not exceeding your car’s maximum towing capacity, the criteria are strict enough for that.

And we don’t upgrade our motors but rather simply buy a stronger car. That typically also comes with better brakes, yes.

That said a quick Google search returns 500-600 kg for average horse weight and 600 kg for usual horse trailer weight. This means a VW Golf or similar will be able to tow a horse with no problems.

In Europe we just haul trailers (even horse trailers) with normal cars, of course with a stronger engine for special uses like horses but even a VW Golf is allowed to pull up to 1800 kg (= can pull a bit more than that).

I bet most US-americans with a truck aren’t even using their truck bed often - likely rarely enough for a normal car + trailer to be way more practical - and also much more efficient, but ig efficiency barely matters with your fuel prices. To stick with the VW Golf example: a modern VW Golf needs 4/4.5/5 l per 100 km (city/combined/highway), a ford F-150 needs 10.7/12.4/14.7 l per 100 km.

S24:

UI not confusing at all imo, just your typical Samsung Android. And obviously not slow since it’s a flagship phone

No ads

Not really bloated (comes with Samsung’s own apps + Google’s apps but you can uninstall most of them)

Decently fast updates

7 years software support (not only security updates but also 7 years of new Android updates)

Wouldn’t say 4000 mAh 50 MP sounds that fancy, but it works very well (lots of optimisation for the battery and good software for the camera)

Downside: expensive (~600€ new currently)

So is the conclusion from that that LGBTQ people would rather vote for Trump (directly, or indirectly by voting for some small candidate or not voting)? I don’t get why this would be a reason for them to not support the democrats

Chess (on Lichess, either browser or app)

Got time? Practice openings or play online.

No time? Play 1 minute games online.

Inconsistent time (have to go any moment) or just casual? Practice puzzles.

AWD often is the difference of if you have to put on chains to keep going upwards or not. Downwards you’ll need them anyway.

Never had to use chains? Not getting any snow? It’s not very useful then.

That first wish is coming true with EV <3

I wish I could buy an electric motorcycle already, but they’re soo overpriced. Anyway, I expect them to become available at affordable prices within 10 years.

The only thing that used to be better was more physical buttons. And it looks like the EU will be pushing for that to return (requiring more physical buttons for the highest security rating).
