Made me throw up, thanks :')

Ah, thx for the explanation :)

Flatpak was designed to be decentralised, Flathub is just the main repository offering flatpaks and yes, probably 99% of all Flatpak applications are downloaded via the main repo but it is technically possible to just launch your own if you are unhappy with the main repo. The Flatpak team literally has this info page for hosting a repository

I for example, am taking AAGL from their own flatpak repo because they are not offering their launcher via the main one (even tho they also tell you to link the main repo - I guess for dependency reasons - but theoretically you could open your own repo and throw all dependency related packages in there or am I getting something wrong here)

Sussy baka ÒwÓ

kinda unhinged, genshin player, and have suicidal thoughts ocasionally, cute tho

I don’t know anyone of the Genshin community who doesn’t fit that description :')

Positive news: at least Germany will reject it, let’s hope more members follow their lead

According to [German Federal Minister of the Interior] Nancy Faeser, it is appropriate to “hold online platforms accountable so that depictions of abuse are discovered, deleted and the perpetrators prosecuted”. However, if the current proposal remains, the representative of the Federal Republic of Germany would have to vote no, said the SPD politician. "Because we must take targeted action and maintain the balance of the rule of law. Encrypted private communications of millions of people must not be monitored without cause.

How do you think who is going to win big in the elections? - Sadly, probably the conservatives and far right due to overemotionalization & polarization thanks to social media and baity articles who create negative emotions to spark any sort of interaction and publicity for the single cause of profit.

(Interviewer clearly didn’t expect nor like that answer) So the FPÖ (alt right) seems to be on their way to dominate this year, what do you think about that? - Well the FPÖ wants to present itself as party for the plebs when they’re effectively helping the rich becoming richer and the poor becoming poorer with their neoliberal policies and even worse they’re destroying decades of work of unions & social democratic policies. And the millionaires who are profiting the most are those who have large shares in tabloid newspapers convincing the masses to vote for what essentially harms them and suits the millionaires.

AAAND DAMN they didn’t like that answer (because they are one of the media bootlicking the FPÖ because their owners like that)…

And guess what… Seems they cut me out… And I thought they were “truly objective, truly critical and truly free”

Respect for sacrificing your Sunday for the election <3

Mhm I see. It’s just a really shitty situation and that it happened so shortly before the main event makes it even worse. Like, if you disqualify him when he didn’t do anything wrong, you face backlash and when he did in fact assault her and you still let him perform, you face backlash too.

I just hope the investigation doesn’t get brushed under the carpet and that we get a better understanding of what actually happened.

Is there any publicly released footage of the incident? I only read about it in the news and if the reaction is justified imo depends on what he exactly did to her.

Taking part in such an event (sadly) often leads to a certain loss of privacy which one should be aware of. On the other hand pointing the camera on him even after him indicating he doesn’t want to requires a certain amount of ignorance.

But then again, I cannot really judge the situation and need to leave that to the investigators.

ESC 2024 in a nutshell:

🇨🇭 The Swiss finally found Nemo, who is non-binary and won by breaking the code and riding a Tagada

🇮🇪 Ireland performed a demon summoning and was awarded 6th by the jury, 6th by the audience and ended up in 6th - 666 intensifies

🇳🇱 The Dutch dude was disqualified for allegedly being an asshole

🇮🇱 Israel did not decapitate Netanyahu on stage and still finished high up in the ranks, sending pro-palestine Twitter users into rage

🇪🇪 We saw Estonian VSauce

They desperately tried to bait the audience with Abba just to show us the worst deep fake in human history and letting some previous ESC winners (including Conchita Wurst) perform Waterloo on stage.

(Did I miss anything?)

Yes, German dialects can vary greatly for example here’s the same sentence “I have an apple.” in different German dialects:

Standard German:

“Ich habe einen Apfel.”

Northern German / Platt:

“Ik hab en Appel.”

Middle German / Saxonian:

" 'sch’habm Abbl." ( 'sch is pronounced like sh)

Southern German / Bavarian & Austrian:

“I hob an Opfü.” (I is pronounced like the single letter E)

The Southern Germans are the ones with the Schwarzenegger accent.

English (fluent)

Dutch (bad)

French (basics)

Japanese (basics)

Standard German (native)

Lower Austrian German (fluent)

Bavarian German (fluent)

Saxonian German (fluent)

Vienna German (good)

Hamburgian German (OK)

Berlin German (OK)

Northern German (OK)

Swabian German (OK)

Platt German (bad)

Tyrolean German (bad)

Swiss German (worse) - Yes, for me it’s easier to understand Dutch than Swiss German

Well, you can’t cheat if you can’t do anything
