i see, might give egghead a shot myslef :3

I didn’t watch a lot of the newer arcs, but I found Wano to suffer this exact problem, which was dissapointing. I had high hopes after they slightly modified the artstyle to look more traditional.

It’s a very fair comparison :3

That’s fair

When I switched from the One Piece Anime to the One Piece Manga. I am sorry, but the Toei adaptation is a fancy power point presentation. So. Many. Static. Shots.

Going for a walk. Trees have a positive effect on mood and you are out moving :)

Prepare for people to speak with quite an accent. Drugs (Cigarettes, most Alcohol and Weed) are allowed from 18 y.o. Even though weed is kinda legal in germany for some reason Bavaria decided to be increadibly strict about it, so I’d advise to steer clear. Obviously Nazi paroles and insignia as well as the Hitler-Gruß are illeagal.

If people are hellbent on speaking German with you, which I assume you do not speak, here is a handy phrase:

• Ich spreche kein Deutsch, aber ich spreche Englisch.
• I do not speak German, but I speak English.

English is taught from a young age, so you’ll find many people who are able to speak it.

When in a pinch you can approach people to ask for i.e. directions. This includes police officers, should you see some. They’ll usually will be happy to help.

In an emergency, <Help> means <Hilfe>. It is best to point or directly adress a single person when asking for help to ensure they’ll jump into action.

Emergency numbers are 110 for police and 112 for firefighters/medics. But 911 also works. I’d like to add that these services are usually free, no need to fear a transport by ambulance for financial reasons.

I still like occasional tinkering with computers, not in depth but on a Linux newbie level :) And I like it. Not only did I learn loads of new stuff and was fascinated by the way Linux works, but I also am glad, that there are less predatory alternatives to Windows and MacOS.

So yes, while big tech like Google, OpenAI and Meta are increadibly disgusting, I feel fine by staying away from their services when possible.

What I really dislike is AI Bots picking apart each and every forum post, blog or publicly available images as training data (correct me if I’m wrong). To this I don’t have a quick solution. What the user can do is to cautiously think about what they posy online. Playing the long game, we need better legislation in the tech sector, such as: Consent for data scalping is mandatory (let me dream, ok. Please)

The cat from Stray. Because cat. Fuck your notes. I fits I sits!

But also the best. Because cat. :3

My first thought exactly! :D

I am not aware of anything like this. They usually take a clear anti AI stance when it comes to their merch.

Many great comments. I’d like to add green&walkable cities :3

I do not expect spreading out to significally reduce our resource consumption. In fact, I expect it to momentarily rise, as we shoot equipment and personell out if the gravitational pull of the earth.

Furthermore I’d like to see our energy consumption stay at a constant level or even decrease instead of steadily increasing. This is especially true for energy accessed through burning of fossil fuels. We need to drasticly reduce our CO2 output.

I haven’t had a similar experience yet, but maybe some if your collegues feel the same way? You could write a letter stating your concerns and let anyone sign who agrees and then send it to your manager. Also, I’d like to add that under German law AI Output can not be copyrighted. You can only claim coownership or something. Maybe that could be interedting to your managers?

I’d like to add to 2.

Some games streamers play, I wouldn’t enjoy myself, but watching them play it and add to it makes it fun.

DOCH.

(Very cool artwork)

This is very helpful!
