Ist bei einem Strafbefehl afaik nicht möglich.

Man kann ja z.B. auch zentralle Annahmestellen für Kartons bereitstellen (inkl. Pfandsystem).

Paywall. Und holy fuck.

I quoted the IDF spokesperson

You didn't quote the spokesperson. You quoted the article that paraphrased the spokesperson. And that the whole situation, in which three people died, was summed up in one sentence didn't make you wonder if you actually know all the details needed to pass judgement, instead you are absolutely sure that what happened confirms your already made up opinion.

the IDF, who doesn’t have a great track record with honesty

There is exactly no one denying this. That doesn't mean that everything they say is a lie though, as that would make them very bad liars.

Your just making shit up

I'm making shit up, but I'm presenting it as hypotheticals. You are making shit up and presenting it as facts.

Even your made up scenarios, what rules of engagement would allow soilders to fire on unnarmed people just because they were running?

Notice how your quote of "the spokesperson" didn't even say they that they were acting within the rules of engagement? And how you left out the "towards them" bit (which seems relevant to me in a conflict that sees suicide bombing)?

edit: according to another news source they were killed during combat https://www.jta.org/2023/12/15/israel/israeli-forces-mistakenly-kill-3-hostages-during-fighting-in-gaza-idf-says

Or they were just running at them, maybe not shouting so as to not draw attention from Hamas. Or maybe they weren't shouting because they were out of breath. Or perhaps they were shouting, but in a loud/distracting environment (e.g. a war or a big city) and the soldiers didn't see them. Or maybe it was as you say. I don't know, I've never been in a war zone and/or hostage situation, and I certainly didn't see this situation. But apparently you were, because how else could you be so sure what happened? So, I'm glad you made it out alive <3

Charges Against Texas 11-Year-Old

Um, what?

Put in Solitary Confinement

Um, WHAT?!

irked Palm Grove Elementary principal Myrta Garza so much with his requests, as well as questions about school dress code, that she called Brownsville Independent School District police.

WTF?

Cameron County prosecutors argued for charges of "terroristic threat."

How can this keep getting worse and more ridiculous at the same time? WHAT DO I DO WHEN ALLCAPS AREN'T ENOUGH?

ignoring Texas laws which require parental involvement before such interventions

Okay, I give up. Is rule of law no longer a thing? Like people aren't even pretending anymore?

It's six o'clock, it's up with the cock! (NSFW obviously)

The bot fails to present both sides of the argument.

Klar ist das subjektiv - als jemand, der Anfang der 90er auf dem Land gelebt hat und super ins Nazi-Feindbild-Schema gepasst hat, ist mir sehr bewusst, dass nicht alles dufte war.

Aber es ist eben auch relativ: selbst wenn man z.B. die 90er als Grundstein für 4chan und in Folge ein Wiederstarken des Faschismus' sieht, gab es eben auch eine positive Entwicklung gegenüber den 80ern, in denen die Bezeichnung des 8. Mai als "Tag der Befreiung" für eine große Kontroverse gesorgt hat und PoC in den Massenmedien noch weitaus weniger vertreten waren (-> womit wir dann wieder bei der Viva-Doku wären ;) ). Homophobie und Sexismus waren noch deutlich gesellschaftsfähiger als heute (wobei es aber auch dort eine positive Entwicklung gab, bis hin zu Wowereits Outing 2001) usw. Der Blick auf den Zusammenbruch der UdSSR war in der Tat zu rosig, aber auch wenn es schlechter gelaufen ist als erhofft (umm es sehr vorsichtig auszudrücken), waren es immerhin offene(re) Grenzen, mehr politische Freiheit und weniger Angst vor einer weltweiten nuklearen Apokalypse.

Yeah, a blog called "Electronic Intifada" sounds like trustworthy news source in this matter...

eine komische Zeit

Du hast "großartige" falsch geschrieben. ;)

Es gab in meiner Wahrnehmung sehr viele positive Entwicklungen - Mauerfall, der reihenweise Zusammenbruch von Diktaturen in Osteuropa, Friedensprozess im Nahen Osten, Ende der Apartheid, Karfreitagsabkommen in Nordirland, schnelle und günstige weiltweite Kommunikation durch das Internet, eine durch MDMA mitgeprägte Popkultur, das Kyoto-Protokoll zur Bekämpfung des Klimawandels, rot-grüne Regierung statt Helmut Kohl, Fall der GRenzen innerhalb der EU, ...

Es ist nicht so, dass es kein Leid und keine Kriege mehr gegeben hätte (vgl. den Völkermord in Ruanda, den Völkermord und Bürgerkrieg in Ex-Jugoslawien, den Völkermord in Kurdistan, Rodney King und die Krawalle in LA, mal ganz zu Schweigen von der Welle rassistischer Gewalt Deutschland, ...), aber es gab zumindest auch viele positive Entwicklungen und (nicht zuletzt durch den Fall des Sowjet-Imperiums) das Gefühl, dass vedammt viel möglich ist.

Source?

A road may also have buildings on either side though its main function is as a transportation route, a way of getting from one place to another, especially between towns.

Just for starter: "especially" does not mean "exclusively".

So when people say I have obviously no experience moving heavy things, my personal experience matters. But when it turns out I have that experience, it magically stops mattering? Plus I never said that my experience is of importance, that's something infreq and Hyperreality brought up.

TIL we never actually moved my girlfriend's whole household by bike (and cart) when we moved in together.

Well, the expert is proposing to rip out roads - so my first guess would be they mean roads, not streets.

Just to offer one possible alternative: cargo bikes/trikes are a thing.
