Well, the activists target SUVs in the middle of Hamburg. That's not really a comparable situation. I agree it would suck if you visit a big city and get targeted there, but I would hope the activists can decide between a polished up city-only SUV and an actual working-vehicle and act accordingly.
Well, if they want to go shopping right now, chances are for this one trip they'll take their spouses smaller car, public transport or maybe even walk. If SUVs become generally unreliable (because you never know if you have air in your tires when you need it), people will look for something more reliable. They'll bitch about it, they won't act out of conviction or so, but who cares.
Controversial opinion of an atheist:
Most religion is incitement to hate-crimes. While I think Sweden has probably bigger Christian societies and should probably rather burn bibles, the guy burning the Quran is an Iraqi, and therefore choosing the Quran is understandable. Afaik, he protested against his own former repression by Muslim religion whe still lived in Iraq.
Religion is notoriously used to reduce other people's freedom. Be it fundamental Christians e.g. in the US or Poland denying healthcare to pregnant women, be it the atrocities committed by the "moral police" in Iran, be it other religions killing people for their sexuality. I support the idea that religious law should be limited to followers of that religion, and no person should be forced in any way to follow or keeps following any religion. Those are fundamental human rights principles in my eyes.
President, specifically. The prime minister of Ireland is also openly gay (I think he has a husband), and Elio di Rupo was the first openly gay prime minister in the EU, Belgium to be specific.
I think the Ryzen CPU just gives more bang for the buck, as well considering purchase price as energy consumption. That's not Linux related, but I think Linux users generally tend to care less about "market leader", sometimes even as far as consciously supporting the underdog.
"Read" means they are displayed in your browser. I used to have Twitter open and hit reload once in a while during work, I definitely loaded more than 300 Tweets per day, especially when clicking on an interesting one once in a while loading all the replies automatically.
Good luck with that... I recommend to stay ground-floor and to avoid tea and guys with umbrellas?
But I wonder what will happen to Shoigu. I mean, getting rid of him wasn't part of the Putin/Prigozhin deal, but wasn't it a huge failure on his part to let Prigozhin proceed that far? Wouldn't Putin have to sack him for that, even if that looks like giving in to Prigozhins demands?
"Elon Mode" just means it's to cater to Musks wet dreams to keep him in the believe the feature is just around the corner, because "see, it's already in the car, we just can't set it live due to stupid formalities" while in reality, passing trial is the major hurdle and having a demo is miles away from having something working reliable in all corner cases.
What will he do without his Trusty lawyer 🥲
I started my own instance and do currently not intend to open it for others (besides, maybe, close friends and family).
My intention are
Reading other posts in this sub, I saw it is still seen as offloading the main servers, as the replication of the data is a low load compared to serving the UI. Maybe one of these motivations apply to you, too? Or you find another one? At the end of the day, host your own instance if you want to :-)
I would be happy if my locally posted comment showed up on lemmy.world at all :-) (If this one does, maybe I was just impatient with the initial sync or so)
EDIT: Nevermind, I was too impatient :-)

Applicants must provide all identifiers used for all listed platforms.
I reached that document via https://www.ustraveldocs.com/de/de-gen-faq.asp#qlistgen21 ("Apply for a U.S. Visa in Germany") and didn't find any hint for exemptions for German citizens or E U citizens, so I assume it applies. (But I might still be wrong.)
