I think there are parts of history where you have to tell the larger story and not just focus on one man's experience.

Ja, aber vermutlich hat man in den Sechzigern nicht mit so hohen Temperaturen gerechnet. Siehe z.B. auch Brokdorf, Brunsbüttel, Krümmel und Stade, die hatten alle keine Kühltürme, so unüblich war das also nicht.

Just goes to show how insane society has become that you'd rather go to therapy than take a 29 day break by being lost at sea.

Silizium leitet besser bei geringen Temperaturen.

Nein, Halbleiter allgemein leiten bei hohen Temperaturen besser.

Ich habe in den letzten Tagen paarmal versucht rauszukriegen wieso das Kraftwerk keinen Kühlturm hat

Ist jetzt nicht gerade das größte, wurde in den Sechzigern gebaut und liegt an einem Fluss, wozu also einen Kühlturm bauen.

Ja, kenne ich, traditionell wird das so genannt, aber ich bin der Meinung, dass das veraltet und verwirrend ist, ein Pronomen ersetzt ein Nomen, ein Possesivbegleiter fungiert eher als Artikel und ersetzt nichts.

In der modernen Linguistik wird Possessivpronomen auch in einem engeren Sinne verwendet und bezeichnet dann nur Wörter wie seines (in: das ist seines), aber nicht Wörter wie sein (in: sein Haus). Letztere werden dann Possessivartikel (auch: Possessivbegleiter oder Possessivdeterminanten, Possessivdeterminative) genannt.

Honestly no, I think it's worse here. I blocked so many communities because they're just about US politics, but that stuff is still everywhere, even in generic meme communities.

Wobei wenn ich das richtig lese geht es den USA nichtmal um den Mindeststeuersatz, sondern darum, dass der globale Gewinn von US-Unternehmen nur in den USA versteuert werden soll.

It doesn't necessarily require a different tape head for recording, but ideally a different head is used. For recording it should have an erase head though, otherwise you're recording over what is already on the tape. Digitising tape in high quality requires a good playback mechanism that has low wow and flutter, I doubt this thing has that, most recent portable cassette players had the same bad mechanism.

In general, most words follow certain patterns, for example words ending in -ion are always feminine, -age is always masculine, most words that end in a consonant that is not "n" are masculine (la mort evidently doesn't follow these patterns). For most words using the wrong article sounds unnatural to the trained ear. Most new words are either derived from old words and keep their gender or they are picked up from other languages and adapted to French either by sound or by meaning (only works if there's already a french word with the same or similar meaning). Sometimes it's undecided, for example le covid and la covid are both acceptable, personally I think it should be le as it sounds more natural.

Fast XI will see the official return of Brian O’Connor

AI slop incoming?

 

Sunrise on the Reaping was released in March, I just finished reading it and would like to read some other opinions on it. In general to me it felt very much like the first book all over again and didn't give any new insights into Panem, but got lost in references to all the other books.
