  • I’d say the police being hired on a local level is not necessarily better or worse than on state or federal level. It might mean having racist town cops and non-racist state troopers or vice versa.

    What is definetly fucked up is the lack of training. I mean even in LA where there’s quite the intense training I personally find it lacking. Cops here study and graduate with at least a bachelors degree.

    Also as someone that holds a law degree from a country with codified law and a very strict and proven legal theoretical construct, I find the idea of case law rediculous. It’s outdated - by centuries


  • Generally agree with making fun of such people espescially in fantasy.

    I fucking hated it in the witcher series though. I mean no disrespect to the actress that played Tris Merigold she did well - well, at least better that the one for Yennefer or some of the other sorceresses. But the plot is already diverse, it is based on historic folklore and incorporates racism and xenophobia. It makes just so little fucking sense. Though to be fair, little did make sense, the director really screwed the series and the fans of its source material over big time.

    In Bridgerton, yes I weirdly enough enjoyed the first season, I did not give a fuck about the diversity nor felt it forced to me.


  • It’s only been forbidenn since 2018. Before that the production of alcohol via destillation was legal in Germany even without a license as long as it was for private use.

    Since 2018 you need a permit and need to to document the process and the outcome as not to exceed the legal limit of 50 litres of pure ethanol per household. The permit can be applied for a your next toll jurisdiction where you will also need to announce changes in ownership of your alcohol destillation apparatus.









  • Holy shit. While I don’t own a car and have no knowledge of my own in that regard, I’ve just looked at an article that tried to compare the cost of EVs to ICEs. They used brand-new cars at list price without subsidies for the comparison. But there were a lot of cars below the 1000 euro monthly mark. And those figures include fuel, maintenance, insurance, tax, price deprevation as well as monthly payments.

    I think somewhere around the 45k mark it jumped above the 1000 euro monthly.
