  • Oh absolutely! And I really don't know the names and all, but I heard a lot of great scientists and authors just stole the work of their wives and never really accomplished anything other than stealing (which was totally fine during those times). I can't imagine how much rage and anger those women felt. So helpless and in the best cases belittled...

  • Oh definitely! And not only cause humankind tend to forget something. We are a really western, at best on top asian and arabic region focused society. So we wouldn't know if a guy in South America figured out the earth is round or saw gravitation like Newtown.

    Edit: and if you wanna read about how much Christianity destroyed knowledge everywhere they went. I would say chances are 99,9999% someone got erased from history

  • Yeah and these reinsurances are also insurance companies, so the statement "insurances could lose up to 3bn" is still right.

    Even further: most losses are booked by reinsurance companies, cause prior insurances mostly don't cover big sums on there own. It's like "10 million for me and the rest for you."

  • Cause they look cool, bands sell the rights to big clothing companies so it's available, labeled as fashion and often cheap. If you walk into a Walmart and see a cool looking Metallica shirt for 10 bucks, why do you have to know the band or songs of it?

    I myself also only buy band merch from bands I really like. But I buy it on festivals, concerts or on the internet after I looked for a specific shirt. So my ways of buying this stuff is completely different from fashion oriented people.

  • Amazon

    Jump
  • I just wanted to buy safety pins. I couldn't find any. Looked at the supermarket, dm even mall like stuff like Galaria Kaufhof, nothing. The only place at that time I could buy some was amazon or as you said, another soulless online retailer with the worst shipping companies.

  • Oh nice, duden itself isn't consistent with it's content. Searching "Schiffahrt" gets me the result that the triple f is the old way of writing it: https://www.duden.de/rechtschreibung/Schiffahrt

    But I don't understand your last sentence. If both are correct than both are the right way. It's just like "größer wie xy" is correct for a couple of years. Maybe it doesn't sound nice, but it's correct.

  • I hope so and I'm the same when it comes to buying games, but e.g. the steam charts telling another story. Most people seem to not care about negative reviews especially if it's a game they heard about before.

  • Money. Even if 5 people scream and get a refund or don't buy it there will be 100 that don't care and just pay. It's the same with every bad thing like preorder, dlc after dlc, microtransactions for cosmetics more expensive than an full title indie game or pay to win in a full price triple a game (like star wars battlefront 2). In the end the group of people just buying is bigger.

  • Yeah, the scaling and transportation. If you wanted salt near the alps it was expensive as hell and mostly the salt came from mines, but that was a very difficult task.

    Salary comes from salty? Like in a good way? I know an old "word" for salt in German is "weißes Gold" (white gold).

  • If it's okay to go waaaaay back: salt. It's always mind-blowing to me that people all over europe during the medieval age or even before that couldn't season anything with salt cause it often was as expensive as gold itself. If I imagine those huge amounts of salt if you wanna pickle some meat or fish. Today salt costs nearly nothing, nearly everybody can afford it and it's so basic that some even don't consider it "seasoning" at all.

  • I know how bitcoin works. But this cap of 21m will be around 2100 or even later if the mining power stays the same as today. So nobody reading this post will be alive around that time. And the same for El Salvador. Should all the people alive right now suffer, cause in around 100 years a theory of a new way for money could succeed? (And no, I don't think bitcoin will ever be more than money laundering and daytraiding craziness ending in more money for the people laundering)

  • Even if bitcoin wasn't just a pyramid scheme and all but right now there are 900 new bitcoins each day, after the next halfing around the corner it's still 450/day. So each day there will be more new bitcoin then he would buy in 1 year. Even the easiest numbers don't add up even if he is just a 40yr cryptobro Trump version.

  • Even if SDV is my favourite game to play, I wouldn't recommend it for someone with little to no gaming experience. It's a cozy farming sim yes, but a lot of mechanics are not that well explained and you have to use the wiki A LOT! Even watching streamers playing it for the first time just shows how much on top explaining is often necessary to really start a good farm where you can feel the progress.

  • Same for Germany. It's income taxes (everything above ~66k/year is 42% taxes and everything above ~277k/year is 45%) no capital gains taxes (they are 25% no matter the amount of capital gains) or asset taxes. Don't know where the 47% are coming from.
