Wait the Brits? Not the English? Ireland is part of the British Isles, doesn't that make them Brits too?

Durchschnittliche kinetische Energie*

Das heißt je nach Substanz sind die Atome bei gleicher Temperatur schneller oder langsamer.

The thing is, once car-centrism is established and normalized, it's so hard to explain to people what the real problem is. Clearly the kid did a stupid thing and ran into the road when it shouldn't. Clearly the driver had no bad intentions.

But somehow the thought never occurs to people that kids (and adults) will always be stupid and we shouldn't strive to make a world where nobody makes mistakes. We should strive to make a world where making mistakes doesn't kill you.

I believe this is about the government, not the people.

Look it really doesn't matter what some crazy people thought in 1580 or 1844. Trying to condemn the entire modern-day nation of Israel and its inhabitants is on par with calling all of Gaza terrorists.

I'm not saying Israel doesn't have deeply rooted colonialism nor that we shouldn't study its history, but making blanket judgements about entire peoples based on random historical nitpicks, is the weapon of the enemy.

It was great in cinema. It's terrible at home.

Frankly annoying as hell that shows and movies can basically only be enjoyed in a cinema or with headphones.

Where's the audio equivalent of HDR?

After years of suspecting ADHD (and two decades of struggling), I decided that maybe I have ADHD. While I wait for an answer from the psychologists, I decided to take an online ADHD self-diagnosis questionnaire out of curiosity.

I found myself mousing over and highlighting the text in one of the questions over and over, thinking about something my girlfriend told me the other day, struggling to actually read the question. When I finally read the question, it was:

How often are you easily distracted by external stimuli, like something in your environment or unrelated thoughts?

Safe to say I started laughing out loud. Starting to feel pretty certain that I'm one of you :P

(I am still mid questionnaire)
