The problem is, among basically three combinations of choices they can make,

  1. keep the data for themselves, but digitize the rare books without destroying the original
  2. destroy the rare books, but digitize the data and make it publically available
  3. digitize the rare books while destroying the original and keeping the data to themselves

they're choosing the worst option possible for humanity.

It's triggered by a blasting cap assembly, which detonates when given an electrical signal. This can be done by tripwire, like you see in movies (video games have like laser trip wires, which I suppose are possible, but don't know if they exist), or usually with a "clacker" (handheld detonater) connected by wire.

I have detonated one at a range before. It is pretty cool.

This is why I never liked the original rhyme, because the important part isn't being rhymed at all.

I had to update a Windows 11 work laptop after not touching it for nearly a year. I click 'shut down' from the start menu and nothing happens. What? Try it again. Nothing again.

I have to hold down the power button before the screen shows a "slide to shut down" screen now. How did Microslop fuck up the 'shut down' so badly.

I remember reading an article about how a little stone that looked like a face was found far away from its geographical origin because a caveman probably thought it was pretty cool and just kept it with him.

We haven't changed much, haha.

That's the volume outside. There's also the low-frequency noise that travels even farther, isn't measured by most decibel meters, but still produces unpleasant results.

It works immediately, and users let you know there are bugs immediately, which you can fix and ship immediately. The fastest CI/CD pipeline in nonexistence.

You know, I haven't been to Germany yet, so I can't confirm it exists, so it's possible the "Germans" I've met so far are actually all in on a big joke with their made-up language, accent, and precision engineering.

I was scrolling by, and being tired, I misread the text in the thumbnail image as 'Germans are not real' and thought this was a shitpost for a second.

But then I see the actual headline is even crazier because it's not a shitpost.
