And I removed the “the” in much the same way.

halvar,

With time I get more and more experienced, while attempts seem to get less and less common. This make it so when they get me I get extra furious.

halvar,

I used arch btw until i switched to nixos fr. Kind of like a splinter group, a cult if you would. Less aur. More flakes. Still mostly unusable.

halvar,

Since I switched just a month or two ago yesterday was flakes-figuring-out-day for me. It’s terrible in the sense, that the first thing I had to do was actually figure out what flakes even do and what is it you can use them for. The guides didn’t help a lot because they assumed I alreary knew that. I think I understand now, but there is an offchance I got it compeletly wrong and that bothers me.

halvar,

A nuclear scientist once explained this to me and a few of my friends in such a great way and I can only do injustice to that explaination, but I will try anyway.

What the nuclear disasters are, are tail risks. What he meant by that, is the more severe a disaster is the less chance it has happening, which you can imagine like the tail of a rat: the further away it is from body the thinner it is. Now the thing about nuclear disasters is that the tail is very long and gets very thin towards the end. That makes it so most incidents reported are incredibly unintresting (thankfully), most of them being non-vital valves gettint stuck and such. But when those really small (and with advancement always shrinking) chances cause a disaster you may have to evacuate a town. Then he told us about the Eschede train disaster. What happened was basically that a wheel of a train cracked and through incredible unluck killed half of the passangers. And looking at the history of trains, while this particular kind of mishap is very rare and we even have systems in place to prevent it from happening, other kinds of catastrophic failures have happened multiple times throughout history, sometimes even killing bystanders, much like a nuclear reactor could. This didn’t stop people from boarding trains though, since the odds were always in their favor and the usefullness of the train was incredible at the time. At the end of the day we have to evaluate whether the benefits are worth the risk. And once again this scientist told us that while he may be a bit biased in this regard he does think those disasters are less and less likely to happen by the day and with the amount of energy generated they are quite worth it.

I’m not here to defend the soulless multi-million dollar corporation, but we don’t actually know how much money it costs for youtube to stay up. The scale they are operating on is immense, I wouldn’t be surprised, if they were still making a loss with 10 midroll ads.

halvar,

So they could either be making money in ways they are not proud of, or there is nothing to be (not) proud of in the first place.

halvar,

Living in Europe this should theoretically be possible in my city as well, but the traffic probably wouldn’t make it possible.

halvar,

I absolutely dispise this meme, why on earth can’t it be rotated 45° the other way around? If I want to read it my head is 90° from the head of the fox. It should be 0.

halvar,

awww

halvar,

They are both standing next to what we think could have been a three-thousand year old space-witch. I would say Obama is cock-precautious and Trump is cock-foolish.

halvar,

As I Hungarian I must say, that he only gets elected because he has a very strong grip on the media over here and most of the civilized peole I know hate the guy a lot. So dear lemmings, don’t criticize my beautiful country would you
