Why does Torx Plus have six teeth but tamper-resistant Torx Plus has five? Whereas ‘what the fuck is this’ basically looks like it should be tamper-resistant Torx Plus?

That pistol appears to be cocked and not locked (safety off). I seriously hope there’s no round chambered.

It didn’t just take “Hitler’s death” for Germans to be able to vote again. It wasn’t a case of “oh look, he’s dead, now we can go back to democracy”. It took over a decade of political terror and violence, a devastating world war, and one of the most organised campaigns of mass murder and genocide in history.

‘Calling out lies’ isn’t fact-checking - at best it would have turned into a ‘your word against mine, who will people believe’ mudslinging contest. Fact-checking puts the onus on the person telling the lie to correct it - ‘this is false and here is a source that says so’.

To run a debate with Trump and without live fact checking was just plain stupid. You know he’s just going to run his rehearsed talking points without so much as trying to answer even mildly uncomfortable questions. They not only let him get away with serial lying, they basically laid the groundwork so he could get away with it.

Fact checks after the fact never reach the people that need to see them.

Freedom of religion also means freedom from religion. If legal and moral standard of society are dominated by the tenets of one religion, that’s not freedom of religion.

You can have your faith, so long as you stop forcing it down other people’s throats.

I pointed out that your JOKE was shit. You’re the one who started calling me names, so don’t lecture me on twisted knickers.

Wow, you have even less of a sense of humour than the average German.

Enjoy your two-ingredient Fleischsalat.

I’m off by one, you’re off by one - shall we split the difference and I’ll overlook that even being merely technically correct I’m still closer than you, who’s both technically and objectively incorrect?

C’mon, no cop is going to give you that deal.

The recipe you’ve linked has more than two ingredients. To say that it’s ‘mayo on sliced sausage’ is misleading. We Germans are a smidgen more sophisticated than that.

What’s giving me dementia is the fact that so many Americans want this guy to be president. Again.

The Korean War took place before the Vietnam War, and Nixon wasn’t President at the time.

Sometimes words aren’t enough.

Then you stop them and tell them this isn’t what I asked for. It’s not that hard.

If they’re not trimming enough - tell them to keep going. Until they hit the length you want. The job is done when you’re happy with it, not when they think they’re done.

I noticed the other day when I accidentally logged in with a different account. Confused the shit out of me. Obviously this is all about presenting ‘related content’ more prominently and driving that engagement.

As much as I am loath to say anything about Musk, but he did actually found SpaceX - although that’s probably the only company he founded (that still exists).

Strange how I’ve been using wired headphones with my phones until two years ago, even though I haven’t had a phone with a headphone jack since 2017…

They are extremely relevant, culturally and historically. They broke new grounds for music, and a lot of today’s music would simply not exist without the Beatles, or some of their contemporaries. That alone means they’re not overrated.

However that doesn’t mean everyone has to love them. It’s possible to recognise their relevance without worshipping them.
