@lanodan @kaia According to that information, the installation of glass slabs in lieu of stairs at your house seems highly optional. In that scenario, I recommend not doing that.

@lanodan @kaia I personally have the very effective approach of simply not having any house guests at all, so I am aware of this not being _the best_ solution to that specific problem. But it seems to be one of very few problems for which this is a solution _at all_. :)

@kaia While it's impractical according to *checks notes* every single other metric on earth, it it is probably great at keeping house guests out of your bedroom.

@GreenSkyOverMe Für die, die in diesem Jahr Abi machen, wird die Studienplatzsuche dann wohl etwas weniger nervig. :)

@kaia That would have been very helpful in my dating days... But that was the 1990s, and the other dudes would probably have kept on telling me that only wimps respect that. Ah, peer pressure. That's almost as much fun as root canal drilling. 😕

I can't say how happy I am to be "off the market" since 2003. I would rather become a hermit in outer Mongolia than ever doing that dating thing again.

@kaia That must be so irritating... Yet, I do have to confess having been on the other side quite often.

Not because I wanted to creep somebody out, but trying to convince myself to speak to that person. I will dare that any second now. When she's not dancing anymore. Nah, she's talking to her friend, don't want to disturb. Any second now... Oh crap, she's left. :(

Still, I fully see how evil, albeit unwillingly, that was. Sorry, girls, really.

@kaia If you attach a weight, it gets longer.

@schratze Absolutely. This thing should not exist, or at least it should not be an absolutely necessity to own it...

@kaia The amount of stupidity is mindboggling, even when considering that this was in the USA.

@kaia Du unterrichtest aber auch nicht Geschichte und hast einen bekannten Fetisch für das Nazireich. :)

(Ich hätte es btw auch nicht gewusst)

@kaia Looks like a rather typical german bathroom from the late 1970s or early 1980s to me... What is the special thing that I'm missing?

@kaia Wow, now I really want to ravage that... No, no, not the young lady, she is safe - but the snack should better stay far away from me or dirty things will happen.

@kaia I highly recommend booking a BPMN course. You'll be the hero of the team if you are able to model and actually understand business processes instead of just stumbling thorough your day. :)

@kaia @icedquinn Make it round-based tactics, you know, like X-Com. And then have a squad of them fight AfD fans. I would actually buy that on steam. :)

@kaia You just inspired me to think about trash bag holders for our trash bins. Should be easy enough to do with the 3D printer.

@m0xEE @kaia Yes, it's actually amazing what works out of the box. But it gets REALLY interesting when you want to switch to a different card for whatever reason. That specific task actually was one of two factors that made me dump Linux after 15 years of Windows-free computer use.

Oh, the second factor was trying to use 1 4k display and 3 1080p displays with different UI scaling for 4k and 1080p.

@kaia Harndrang im Videocall - das Waterboarding des kleinen Mannes.

@kaia @shibao Looks like a quickdraw competition to me.

@kaia In one of his television shows, Jamie Oliver cultivated potatoes in old rubber boots. Those things will grow in anything you put them in, really.

@methyltheobromine @kaia @shibao Oh shit, thanks for reminding me. I still have to mail the cheque to the GEZ. Perhaps I should send a Fax asking for forgiveness as well.
