If I didn’t get it wrong: 166 billion yearly profit, thats like over 450 million a day. Less than two hours to break even on that settlement.

My notebook has two GTX 1080m sli. Still great for video editing and the light gaming I do occasionally.

K-9 is great, nice clutter-free design.

Nice! Great crust and structure.

Looking good! Maybe a couple of minutes longer in the oven. I’ve been baking bread for years, but I only got decent at it once I found a bakers apprentice book. It helped me understand the very basics of the chemistry and physics behind it.

Yep, all covered except for some extra stuff like getting your teeth deep-cleaned by your dentist or some premium dental prosthetics, but they usually subsidize it. Edit: also having most people enrolled in the public insurance (wealthier people have private insurance) makes this system possible, at least for now.

Well, here in Germany you’re paying (you have to) around 15% of your gross income for health insurance plus 3.4% for intensive care insurance. Your employer pays for half of those. Insurances are expensive but if you need them it’s cheaper than paying for treatment yourself. What I pearsonally find worse is the public tv and radio fee you have to pay each month (18 euros, same as netflix premium) to finance some dickwad director earning 200k+ even if you don’t watch or even have a tv/radio. Also it doesn’t matter how much you earn, the fee is the same.

Public facing. Has to be “viewable in two or less clicks”, so for example in your about page. Thats what is so spicy about this. I’ve got a YouTube channel but “luckily” not enough viewers to monetize, I’d hate to put my info out there for everyone to mess with.

Yep, stupid me copied the wrong link, updated now with the proper one.

Hmm I don’t think so? Not sure but it is this article

Yeah I meant it more like Germany doesn’t do it for the same reasons as China.

I know its not the same thing but in Germany you have something called “Impressumspflicht” for everything you publish online if you intend to monetize it in any way. For example you have to specify your full name and address, an email address and your phone number if you run a YouTube channel or twitch.

Onetime for around 30 bucks. Yeah, 7zip is free and I used that but I had to repair a corrupted rar archive. It worked and I was thankful for that so I bought it.

Ha, funny thing, I bought it yesterday.

I wish I was that extroverted. I mean that’s 19 free meals and a nickname, what else do you want?

So cool! Thanks for sharing.

Nice Ron!

Ah, nice! Almost didn’t have my existential crisis today, thanks for the reminder.

Is that a diskworld reference?

I hope it’s not something like this monkey hater article, (caution, its aweful) an investigative piece by the BBC.
