  • Really? Is this ambiguous?

    § 202c Vorbereiten des Ausspähens und Abfangens von Daten

    (1) Wer eine Straftat nach § 202a oder § 202b vorbereitet, indem er

    1. Passwörter oder sonstige Sicherungscodes, die den Zugang zu Daten (§ 202a Abs. 2) ermöglichen, oder
    2. Computerprogramme, deren Zweck die Begehung einer solchen Tat ist,

    herstellt, sich oder einem anderen verschafft, verkauft, einem anderen überlässt, verbreitet oder sonst zugänglich macht, wird mit Freiheitsstrafe bis zu zwei Jahren oder mit Geldstrafe bestraft.

    (2) § 149 Abs. 2 und 3 gilt entsprechend.

    Emphasis mine.

    Edit: Lawyers' opinion

  • Hire a historian to give a no-nonsense talk about the history of ideas Homer used. Believers in Greek gods and countries mentioned were definitely real. We don't know nearly as much about them as Homer did but we know Odysseus wouldn't encounter supernatural beings and can conjecture what these themes were inspired by.

  • No, the mushroom cloud does not get a pass. There is nothing inside nuclear power plants that could create it. They do use ²³⁵U but in a way too low concentration so the rate of fission is greatly limited, and the worst thing that can happen, even in obsolete reactors without inherent regulation, is overpressure and conventional explosion that releases heavy isotopes from the reactor.

  • Fukushima was spectacularly bad oversight of a private company with massive responsibility, and even that needed a tsunami to cause a problem. Regulatory agencies in most countries, especially after 2011, will never be that loose again, not to mention many areas have vanishingly low natural disaster rates. And Chernobyl cannot happen again unless someone rebuilds an obsolete, sketchy reactor design that will never get approval.

    The big issues nowadays are dual use of uranium enrichment centrifuges and spent fuel disposal (it's often not economical to recycle), which aren't local to the plant and wouldn't stop me from supporting a nuclear plant on the edge of my town (Czechia is free from natural disasters except relatively mild winds and flooding, both of which are easily protected against with a self-contained robust structure away from flodplains). Unfortunately people are so averse of catastrophic risk that many will refuse to fly an airplane yet willingly smoke.

    By the way, there are many actual valid NIMBY points against highways, airports, datacenters, aluminium plants etc. There are air pollution and noise laws in reasonable countries for this reason.

  • Yeah, they shouldn't be in mixed-zone areas. Like almost any other power plant.

    Reminder that including disasters and uranium mining, nuclear power is still the least deadly

  • It does format text in the editor pane by default now but uses a big warning with a button to disable it.

     
            However, the built-in code highlighter, much
        like in many Lemmy frontends, highlights
        some words/symbols depending on the default
        language. Therefore, it's best to not use 
        4 spaces at the start of each line for a code block.
    
    
      
     text
        
    Instead, this one starts with "text" and 
    ends with "". No extra indents and I get
    to specify the highlighting language!
    
      

    Edit: Damn

  • At least he found the turtle

  • European police is not great but not thst bad.

  • Why ©2017 if it's just a republishing with no creative input?

    edit: ⓒ/Ⓒ/© got me

  • That's best solved with lane-specific vertical signs, which are uncommon (very few road-wide fixtures except large wayfinding boards) but not unheard of in my country. If the right turners get their own lane, that is. Also, if the road is curving and thete's an intersection with onefrom the left ኮ, it seems the straighter one should be the main road.

  • Yup. Specifically, the Matrix II Tall OT Reg font: note the below-the-baseline ┰.

  • I'm not familiar with TLP as a children's goodnight tale, I think the Czech version uses peas rather than pigs. What's funny about this variant? Or just the juxtaposition of this being the well-known (not back then) horror family?

  • By default, sidewalks and similar paths are pedestrian-only. Unlike Germany, Czech Republic is notorious for being overly explicit about what is allowed where.

    Signs like End of cycleway

    are super overused:

    There's also a separate sign for segregated foot/cycle paths.

  • 𓌂𓐍𓏏𓁐 is one of the ways Sekhmet has been written (maybe the two small glyphs are supposed to be above each other, that's a font/renderer issue) and 𓄿𓈖𓎼𓂋𓇌 decodes to A-n-g-r-y using Manuel de Codage's hieroglyphic ASCII representation

  • Germans (and similarly, other countries following the Vienna Convention) do it like this:

    Bike path

    No bikes

    How about this? Is this a bike-free road, as in Alkoholfrei? Or free for bikes to ride on? That's why text doesn't belong on road signs. Mostly.

              

    (Yes, I've since learned that it's the latter: -frei in a compound word and frei as an adjective are different but you can't tell if that's meant to be a space because it's a bloody pictogram and 4 letters.)

  • No, American signs mostly use "NO" in text to indicate "not allowed". Very inefficient. (Edit: apparently R5-6 exists for no bikes. However, almost all other bans are verbal.)

    In Europe, we use multiple thin black slashes over a greyed-out sign to indicate the ban has ended.

  • KDE Connect is also a control option
