The bigger issue isn't that the far-right are getting more support, but that this support mostly comes from the left parties.

It's the SPD and green party that were the big losers of this election, meanwhile the conservatives and far-rights won more and more.

It's not the rightwing people becoming more rightwinged, it's the people previously voting left that suddenly turns right a lot.

There is simply no majority for the left at all.

Trumpers are the worst man.

Disagree and we've seen signs of it in this topic

1st they deny he said it
Then they will say it was sarcasitc and or taken out of context

Then they will say it was actually true regardless of how blatantly false it is objectively

This is how it's been for a decade now. Reality doesn't matter. Trumpers just proclaim whatever Trump said is valid and reality itself is wrong

IT's a cult

They just play their game according to the the narcissist's prayer:

That didn't happen.
And if it did, it wasn't that bad.
And if it was, that's not a big deal.
And if it is, that's not my fault.
And if it was, I didn't mean it.

It does seem like Hamas is no good , but the people of Palestine don't really have a say, and they still want freedom from israeal.
Who wouldnt want to break away from a country that has ignored your existence and continues to bomb your land(palestine) for the greater good (to protect isreal).

There are no job quests anymore, only the role quests, and these quests are just to put all the job stories to a closure.

About the "master role": I think you are talking about mentor role. That's some Endwalker stuff, ignore that for now.

Seriously, gender-neutral language in languages that have grammatical genders are a non-issue happening because some centuries ago we decided that this grammatical gender is male, this one is female, and the other one is neutral (for german).

No one would think that a person or hostage is supposed to be a female, just because "die Geisel" or "Die Person" is female by grammar.

No one would think that girls are not female, just because "Das Mdchen" is neutral (and every word ending with -chen are neuter in german. It's suffix that indicates something smaller. "Die Gabel" is a fork with female gender, "Das Gabelchen" is a tiny fork, probably a toy or for children with a neutral gender.

Simple google search now showed that 46% of all nouns in german are female, 34% are male, 20% are neutral (only counting words were only one gender is correct).

If it's about people, most singular instance are generaly male, most plural instances are female. "Der Lehrer" is a single teacher and does not say anything anout their gender at all, "Die Lehrer" are multiple teacher and also doesn't say anything about their personal gender at all.

Ofc we also have some progressive people here trying to change this to something more inclusive, but they can't even agree with themselves, and everything they try to do is against the current rules of the language.

Stuff like LehrerInnen, Lehrer/innen, Lehrer_Innen are one way they try to do, another thing is to replace "Teacher" with "teaching person". But this is again not completly correct, because a teacher is a job you have 24/7, but teaching others is a verb you have to do activly.

Also, be aware that the discussion in German has nothing to do with transsexuality at all. It was only about the female side of gender in the discussion.

The problems is purely human, because under some circumstances we get a form that's bigger than the screen, and that breaks stuff because UI elements are out of sight. Sadly, these circumstances are too easy too meet, and "breaks stuff" means something critical.

Technically it works, the elements are there and can be accessed.

its definitely bad if a dedicated tester isnt doing their due diligence. i dont know how it works at larger software companies, but wouldnt even the devs be testing as they dev? i cant imagine you'd want to write more than a bit of code at a time without verifying it works at whatnot.

To keep it very simple:

The dev is just checking the specific usecase they are working on, and that's it. If it works, it works, on to the next task.

The tester is supposed to check all the stuff working together, and checking if any change breaks something different somewhere else.

The bosses are already extremly unsatisfied with her work, and this is once more an obvious stupid bullshit bug that jumps you right into the face if you test it at least once. But noooo, it went on unnoticed throught testing, and now everyone in the office is once more getting the heat to release a hotfix ASAP and deliver it to all our customers once more.

Looking at these huge ass self checkouts from the article, I can see the problem.

It's just 5 small check outs bundled together, managed by a single employee.

It's mostly for people who only want to grab a few things and that's it.

1 employee is serving these 5 self check outs at once, and even if every customer is only half as fast as the "normal" check out emplyoee, that's still 2.5 more efficency.

Ofc, looking at these huge ass island would make this obsolete. One guy can't easily watch over them all at once, and when they are supposed to check every single bullshit like membership cards, there is no benefit at all anymore.

If it's the "perfect" game, then that means the Normal and higher difficulties would be balanced really well so the Normal difficulty wouldn't be frustratingly difficult to beat, and the game would have the proper optional accessibility features for disabled players (or gaming journalists) to still be able to enjoy the game just fine on Normal mode. So sure, in this case, not having a separate easy mode would be fine.

I agree with you about the accessibility features for disabled people, but I think gaming journalists could suffer a bit and it would still be perfect.

At ResetEre and Cait sith: Honestly, everytime something gets translated literally as possible (because it's name, or there is no equivalent word in the other meaning) there is a big chance that the pronouncation gets messed up. This is true for every language that's translated from, and every language that's translated into. That's an everyday occurance.
