I’ve only eaten at Pizza Hut once and it was in Shanghai, in 2008. It was fine. Never had Domino’s. There are excellent Italian pizzerias all over Europe, so I never feel the need to go for a chain.

There is an article about him on Know Your Meme. Apparently it’s just a character some guy on Twitter made.
By and large I support them, including the ones doing more “direct” action. However, not every group calling themselves “environmental” are automatically getting my support. Some are choosing the wrong targets (e.g. Nuclear power, GMOs), others the wrong means (pouring sauces over art is just weird and not related to the environment). Greenpeace in particular is often quite misguided in their positions and actions IMO.
He went to Japan, married and became a rice farmer. You can visit his grave in Shingo, Aomori Prefecture.
Honestly, I’ve heard or read very little about Iraq after the war, so I have no idea what happened there since then. Unfortunately I think the country is still mostly being associated with war and crisis here in Germany. I think it’s a very interesting place especially for its ancient history though. Some of the first highly developed civilizations arose there. Would love to visit places like Ur, Babylon or Nineveh one day.

I don’t actually know, but in my mind the audience most likely to watch those cruel “pranks” and find them funny are kids or teenagers themselves.
Sometimes it’s okay to just disagree. With a topic like AI, the effectiveness of arguments against it will vary heavily depending on one’s subjective opinion on things like intellectual property, what is and isn’t art, how we should deal with emerging technologies etc.
Only if they already have the correct password.
It was something on Windows 3.1 or DOS, but I can’t say for sure which game it was. I played a lot of Microman, so it might have been that.
what if, by giving the lesser evil more energy and making them a greater evil, you give them the ability to put you in prison camps when the original greater evil could not?
You haven’t explained how that is supposed to work though. Why couldn’t the greater evil do this, what’s stopping them? And you truly think that every political party has the very same goals underneath? Let’s take an extreme example: Germany 1932. You think if the SPD (social democrats) had won the election instead of the NSDAP, it would have been just as bad? You think they would have also slaughtered all the Jews and started WW2, because they were secretly just as evil? That doesn’t sound reasonable or realistic to me. There’s more to politics than whether a party is capitalist or socialist. Nuances exist.
How far capitalists and the state are willing to go is as far as they think they can get away with.
I don’t agree with this, but going along with it for the sake of the argument: By letting the greater evil get into power, you are showing them that they can get away with way more than if it were the lesser.
So let’s say you didn’t vote for the lesser evil and the greater evil has narrowly won. The greater evil takes away your right to vote and puts you into a prison camp. What have you gained, a sense of moral superiority? Was that worth it?
Best thing I’ve ever had with fries was the pepper sauce they have at some “Frituurs” in Belgium. Can’t really get that here in Germany unfortunately.
My parents, yes absolutely. They are responsible for me growing up to be a tolerant, left-leaning person in a mostly conservative rural area. Being boomers, they might not be up to date with all the current LGBT terms or things like that, but they definitely have/had an open mind and don’t judge people.
My paternal grandparents (born in the 1910s and 1920s) were very religious. My dad had to suffer a very strict upbringing under them. He was not allowed to read comics, watch TV, read sci-fi novels etc (though he did all of these things in secret). I only knew them as a child when they were already in their 80s and they were nice to me, but from what I’ve heard from my dad not necessarily nice people, and definitely not tolerant.
My maternal grandma (never knew my grandpa) rarely ever talked about politics or society or anything. She was a very down-to-earth person. That said, she definitely held some bigoted views in the form of prejudice against foreigners. She had major reservations when some Turkish people moved in next door. She eventually became friends with them though, so she managed to overcome her prejudice. I’d say she was a nice person.
At this point? Yes, it’s pretty much just grifters and gullible people falling for them. For early adopters of crypto, not necessarily. A lot of random tech nerds got rich just investing a few dollars into bitcoin. I put 200€ into Ethereum back in highschool and while it didn’t make me rich, it did turn into a few thousand at least. These days I stay as far away as possible from anything related to crypto though.
Depends. I almost always buy clothes and shoes in actual stores, as shopping for them online is a wasteful hassle. There are also some shops that I enjoy visiting, like second-hand stores or Asian supermarkets, where it’s interesting to just browse and buy interesting things I wasn’t specifically looking for.
On the other hand, I always buy stuff like electronics online. Electronics stores are more expensive and have a way smaller selection, so I don’t bother with them. Generally if I’m looking for something specific, buying it online is just more convenient.
Personally, I wouldn’t even consider it, as I value my time and health far more than getting some extra money. 40 hours is already quite a lot IMO.
Smoking. Millions of euros of taxpayer money spent every year on those lung cancer patients which could be well spent elsewhere. It’s also an activity that negatively affects not just the smoker but everyone around them.
Pretty sure both chains offer vegan pizzas. So then it’s only an atrocity against Italian cuisine (not because it’s vegan, but because you could’ve chosen a proper pizzeria).
