Yeah, that’s what I meant by binding. Just wanted to say that it is not really surprising that the majority of Europeans in these comments compare US states to EU countries.

Area is irrelevant though since the original comment was about distance. Kinda sad to insist on the correct unit if you’re the only one using the wrong one.

Europeans on average drive slow, but the comments are about Germans. We are special (in every sense of that word).

To be honest in my head US state == country in Europe and USA == EU. Both are unions of states - one of them is just younger and less binding.

Tectonic plate shifts

Even in that very long list of European crimes in history, Sykes-Picot really outshines the rest in how big of a fuckup it was.

About weekly in my case.

Now imagine people would actually play the game and realize that you actually don’t want to FT because it is honestly fun to explore.

But that would require them to actually care about the game… lol.

Care to provide sources? I had a press preview of the game before release and nothing changed in my version, so I REALLY wonder where you get that information from.

This comment getting downvoted is the perfect illustration of how this is just another circle jerk.

Every single sentence in your comment is just objectively true and not opinion, but nowadays we vote on reality, not opinion it seems.

Also I’m quite sure /dev/hdx is a thing

Lol. No.

Like seriously, this must be fake. Add a zero and I’d still find it suspiciously cheap.

Thanks for all the replies. I had a very grim interpretation where the driver being an active part was removed. This happens a lot in German media where it is rarely a driver killing someone but instead someone “dying in traffic” - as if it’s a higher power.

Glad it might just be interchangable or an alliteration…

Ah, just being an alliteration might be the case. I used to separate these by active/passive (as pointed out by some of the other comments) which is why this was so confusing to me.

Re the headline: Can someone explain to me - a German - when to use “deadly” and when to use “lethal”? Feeling pretty confident with the language, but this one just confuses the shit out of me…

No, of course it’s not true. Somehow people still upvote some random conspiracy theory from a fortnite subreddit…

What a coincidence: just yesterday I rewatched the warehouse 13 episode where they’re at a civil war reenactment LARP and someone complains about the fucking trekkies always crashing their party as RPG time travelers.

“The Bild newspaper is an organ of infamy. It is wrong to read it. Anyone who contributes to this newspaper is socially unacceptable. It would be wrong to be friendly or even polite to one of its editors. You have to be as unfriendly to them as the law allows. They are bad people who do the wrong thing” - Max Goldt (translated from German)

Comments are the worst as they are ignored by refactoring. That’s the reason if (false) is actually really good for temporarily disabled code.
