Sorry if it came of as snarky, I just wanted to point that out so people can make an informed decision.

I appreciate the input, so keep it up. Shadow of Mordor is a great game btw.

Just because you're not paying with money doesn't mean it's free.

That's nonsense, GPT would form more coherent sentences.

I mean, in the US there is a coal mine that has been burning since at least 1962 so not surprised that an oil depot can go for a couple of weeks

Only tangentially related -

I once read a book by a Holocaust survivor where he said (paraphrased) that the really nice ones didn't survive the camps - the ones giving away part of their rations, the ones giving away their blankets to the sick, the ones standing up for their fellows, the ones trying to help the weaker, they were the first ones to be shot, or going into the gas chambers, or dying of hunger or disease. And those willing to be selfish were the ones more likely to survive.

Obviously no judgement or blame either way, in situations like these you'll have to do what's necessary but that point of view hit me really hard at the time "the really nice ones didn't survive the camps".

It made me truly realize the horror those camps represented, they didn't just take their belongings, or their lives, or their dignity - they robbed them of their humanity to the point where being nice to your fellow people would get you killed and that was a horrific aspect that never made it into my consciousness until I read that sentence " the really nice ones didn't survive the camps."

Phew, I was really worried someone was gonna cut poor mike.

Seeing him ramble in a video is bad already, but to write his nonsense out makes it so much worse, it's hilarious.

I heard the other day – And this isn’t anything, I’m just saying. They’ll say ‘he was rambling.’ I don’t ramble. I’m a really smart guy. You know, I’m really smart. I don’t ramble. But the other day – any time I hit too hard, they say he was rambling. Rambling?

You know, I get up, and I make a speech, I go for sometimes two hours, two and half hours because, you know, people are waiting outside for three days, four days. You guys were waiting out there for a long time! Front Row Joes are waiting, I don’t know how you guys do it.

And I feel I have an obligation to speak, and speak in a certain way, and speak a little bit longer. You know, how would you like it, a guy’s waiting with his family for three and a half, four days. They have a tent and the tent is set up. They have hundreds of them, and they wait. And then I walk in, speak for 15 minutes and leave. I don’t know somehow, would that be okay, North Carolina? I don’t think so. Right.

They want me to speak all day. You know, when I leave – I did one, two hours and 15 minutes and I’m leaving and they’re screaming, no, sir. More. We want to hear more. I can’t, I can’t speak more. What the hell else am I going to say? Our country is going to hell. That’s all I can say. We’re a nation in decline.

You know, we were talking about that before. My phrases are copied so much, right? I use I use the term, often times in closing, we are a nation in decline. We are a failed nation. And I think it’s a beautiful phrase. Although I don’t like the topic very much, I don’t like what it represents. But there’s a certain beauty. All of a sudden all of these candidates, including Republicans, are saying we are a nation in decline. We are a failing nation. And I say, you know, what the hell do they have to copy me for? Right?

But they have a lot of words that they copy. Many of our words. We were in the plane before coming in, and our people said we went through a list. I think we’re going to release a list, let’s release it. But so many of our phrases they copy. I should be really, that should be a nice thing, not an insult. But crazy Bernie Sanders has said a lot of things…

You want a device that's only available on Star Fleet ships as part of the crew and probably limited only to a subset of higher ranking members of the crew?

You can just rent a program at quarks?

In German it is the other way around, Helikopter gets shortened to heli

Yup, the back plate for my CPU cooler wouldn't fit because of some weird struts my case has, so I cut open the case, just enough to fit it.

This would be a good time for German unions to present an initiative.

German workers protection and union laws are pretty solid, I wouldn't worry about that too much.

Several American ventures had a pretty rude awakening after challenging them. Ever wondered why we don't have Walmart or Uber over here? Ubers activities are very limited in Germany because of worker protection laws and Walmart retreated from the German market over it, among other issues with German culture and law.
