Makes sense. I wasn't aware those existed. Where I come from jukeboxes aren't really a thing. The only one I ever encountered was really old school and only had vinyl records from the Elvis Presley era.

I used to like a bit of philosophizing, but then I had a philosophy professor who ruined all the fun. What a Kant.

Where do you even find a jukebox, that plays Darkthrone?

Errrm, I'm pretty sure her age, while being a huge factor, isn't the only thing that prevented that happening. She's not exactly on a similar vibe as Anthrax or Millencolin.

I mean, neither Britney Spears nor Christina Aguilera made the cut iirc, despite their popularity in the same era.

Same, dude. THPS2 was massively influential for my generation.

Never been a skater myself after having had a neck injury in third grade, when I first tried it. But the music stuck.

Are you talking about the major java/jre repackaging issue, that was announced (proposed update procedure included) on the archlinux news-page, that you are supposed to check before an update?

If so, then you can't really blame the distro, if you don't follow basic best practice guidelines.
And then you'd also be pretty late to that update and should run updates more frequently. Once a week to at least once a month is a good idea. That's the idea of a kinda bleeding edge, rolling release distro.

If you want to say “it has this specific vegetable and that makes difference” then that’s another perspective I don’t agree with.

That's not a point I'm trying to make. Although my idea of Döner Kebap includes specific vegetable/salad ingredients, to my understanding the defining step was putting it in a portable loaf of bread, instead of having kebap on a plate. And as another commenter said, that idea might have been re-imported. But neither was I around when it first appeared, nor am I a Döner Historian of any capicity, so I have to rely on the sources I read. I'm also not passionate enough about the topic to do a lot more research. But no matter it's origins: Döner holds a very special place in Germany's culinary environment and that's thanks to Turkish immigration history. So it's definitely a significant food in this country.

Nobody denies its Turkish roots though. AFAIK putting Kebap in bread isn't really a thing in Turkey and although one might argue how big a contribution that is, it's that step that combined a Turkish dish with German Imbiss culture and made this a huge success all over Germany.

You're welcome to try the same thing with Schnitzel and if you attain the same level of success and cultural significance, I'd rightfully call you the "inventor". (though I have to inform you, that "Schnitzelsemmel" is a thing already, so maybe think of a different example)

There's just no economic incentive to do so. (yet?)

I do get, why people dislike GIMP. It has a bit of a steep learning curve. And approaches things uniquely.

But for a FOSS paint equivalent: have you tried Pinta? It's much less complicated, and the UI isn't too bad.

Was ist mit der Lesekompetenz der Leute los?

Der Artikel setzt sich von Anfang an kritisch mit dem Buch auseinander. Natürlich wird wiedergegeben, was die Autorin inhaltlich und sprachlich so von sich gibt, aber schon der erste Absatz schließt mit den Worten "nicht nur das wirft Fragen auf".

Das Wort "Gleichschaltung" wird auf den NS-Kontext referenziert, ideologische Vorredner (Götz Kubitschek) werden zur Einordnung der Thesen identifiziert und es wird immer klar markiert, dass es sich bei den kruden Aussagen um Worte der Buchautorin handelt. Die Distanz des Autors ist durchgängig erkennbar.

Natürlich schafft so ein Artikel immer auch Aufmerksamkeit, und Leute die dem Gedankengut nahe stehen können ungeachtet dessen auf die Idee kommen, dass es sich für sie lohnen könnte das Buch zu kaufen um ihre Meinung bestätigt zu finden. Aber mir ist vollkommen schleierhaft, wie man auf die Idee kommen kann, der Autor des Artikels würde dieses Werk hier irgendwie positiv bewerben.

Das ist total cool und bestätigt meine eigene Beobachtung. Dass in Südhessen jedes zweite Kaff irgendein -heim ist und in Schwaben alles -ingen heißt.

Gibt es irgendein Kriterium für die Mindestgröße von Ortschaften oder sowas? Denn die doch nicht so häufige Endung -mannsdorf findet z.B. das schöne Kaff Eismannsdorf (Gemeinde Allersberg, Mittelfranken) nicht.
