I never really understood the difference between insults and slurs. Somebody said that slurs target groups of people and imply that just being in the group is bad. That explanation works for ethnic/racial slurs or the ones regarding gender/sexualities.
But to me “retarded” is not specifically tied to a group. It’s not mainly used for people who are disabled or neurodivergent for example. As far as I’m concerned it’s the same as calling someone a moron or incredibly stupid.
Most generative AI isnt even artificial intelligence by definition. Technically most of it falls under deep learning or machine learning. But that doesn’t sound as marketable as pretending chat bots are intelligent now.

By 11:30 p.m., workers in the MIC area were feeling the effects of minor exposure to MIC gas and began to look for a leak. One was found by 11:45 p.m. and reported to the MIC supervisor on duty at the time. The decision was made to address the problem after a 12:15 a.m. tea break, and in the meantime, employees were instructed to continue looking for leaks. The problem was discussed by MIC area employees during the break. When the tea break concluded at 12:40 a.m., the reaction in tank E610 escalated to a critical state at an alarming speed within five minutes.

Etwas anderes könnte auch nicht zu erwarten sein nachdem es solange gedauert hat bis Lizenzen verteilt wurden. Es gibt scheinbar jetzt Deutschlandweit ~300 genehmigte Vereine von denen viele aber erst im Sommer 2025 ihre Lizenzen erhielten.
Ever other platform is just ass. I have played games on Epic, Battlenet, Ubisoft and the EA launcher but they all barely have basic functionality. Meanwhile steam has:
Steam seems to be the only one that actually puts any effort in providing a good user experience. It’s more than just a store / launcher and noone else is even trying to compete.
They aren’t road legal by EU laws either, although there are a hand full of owners from EU countries (Poland, Czech Republic, Austria) that managed to get theirs registered through exceptions.
I think it’s the (fear of) drones. Most russian troops don’t have any effective detection or countermeasures against them. Artillery hits are often followed up by drone attacks and Ukrainian infantry also heavily relies on reconnaissance and support from drones.
There are so many videos from the early stages of the war starting with a single russian soldier getting wounded by artillery, a drone grenade, mine or sniper. Attempts to rescue them then lead to more and more drone casualties. Getting stuck in this situation then makes it a matter of time before artillery, more drones, or Ukrainian ground troops show up to finish the job.
The result are panicked retreats where everyone tries to save themselves. The general lack of training and resources probably doesn’t help either.

Well it does happen somewhat regularly. People (often from poorer countries) get on planes as stowaways. Most times they can only get into the wheel well, sometimes cargo holds. But they dont know that these non-passenger areas often aren’t heated or pressurized and either freeze to death or suffocate during high altitude flight. Getting crushed in the wheel well during take off or falling out it during landing can also be deadly.
I’m always baffled how pointless that subreddit is. Almost every question asked there barely requires any math. Usually it’s just look up two numbers and then do one basic operation. Or even worse, questions that aren’t even answered by math at all.
The title of the study is “In a narcotic trance, or stimulants in Germanic communities of the Roman period”
Its literally the first result if you Google “Praehistorische Zeitschrift Stimulants”. It’s pretty easy to find.
I wonder why that could be… Surely the rules & mods being obnoxious has nothing to do with it.
