I still don't get buffers
  • I kind of assumed that his comment was independent of the meme he posted and served more to underline a perceived power that vim has over other editors. In this case a power OP doesn't even understand/use himself.

  • Germany legalises cannabis, but makes it hard to buy
  • On the other hand, there are places, where it's so easy to get weed and other drugs even today and delivered directly to your doorstep. In those places it may be easier to stick with your dealer for procurement and enjoy the benefit of decriminalization of possession and consumption than going through the hassle of joining a cannabis club. This in turn would negate some.of the discussed benefits of legalization.

  • Same! I work in healthcare and had to test nearly daily (using the antigene tests) and didn't catch COVID until last week. If I didn't work in healthcare I probably wouldn't even know I had it, since the symptoms were rather mild. I only tested, because I had to work with people on chemotherapy and didn't wanna risk them. At this point, I think there's lots of people who catch the virus and don't even know about it since we mostly stopped testing.

  • I prefer riding on the street with the cars. I feel more visible that way. When I'm on a separate bicycle path separated from the street by parked cars, there's a risk they won't see me when turning right. Also, when cycling on the street it's easier to switch to the lane for turning left with the cars, which is usually much quicker than waiting at two traffic lights consecutively for turning left. Of course, this depends on the density of car traffic and local laws. I'm talking Berlin, Germany.

  • Can anyone elaborate on the difference between being allergic to beer and alcohol, versus just there normal negative effects?
  • I'm not sure whether there actually is an allergy against alcohol. Generally, an allergy is an exaggerated response by your immune system to a substance. Basically, your body thinks, some substance (mostly proteins) is part of a pathogen (like a hull protein of a bacterium) and responds accordingly. There are different types of allergies depending on what part of your immune system gets activated.

    The adverse effects of alcohol on the other hand, are mostly effects of the poisonous byproducts of intermediate products of alcohol metabolism (the process in which your body gets rid of the alcohol).

    Of course, you can be allergic to another compound of an alcoholic beverage, like some proteins from the malt used to make beer or have another kind of reaction, which isn't an allergy to other compounds.
