Terces

He's not just being polite but he made the conscious decision that this store is the one he wants to support because they were willing to lose revenue in order to help the customer.

I think it points to the character on the left that looks a bit like a character from "Among us". And they used the available icons to write a name close enough to that (Abong up)

But that's just a guess....

I....don't get it. This is an old way to help a child that has something stuck in their throat. I mean, the heimlich maneuver was first described in 1974, so I guess this WAS in fact the best technique at the time. Keeping someone from suffocating is kind of important, and this seems like something you can do fast and easy (at least with a relatively small person).

This tram goes up a steep hill. On the ground you can see a third line of "tracks". Those a for a gear the tram uses to pull itself up the hill. It's the only one in Stuttgart that has that. Because that hill is so steep, they allow bikers to take their bike with them and because many use that offer, they added the extra bike carriage.

Their concern is not solely based on the gene modification. The impact of introducing a new crop is bigger than that. The golden rice is patented and that often comes with a ton of regulations the local farmers have no control over.

While I wish for there to be a good way to solve the food problem AND find a good use for gene modification, I don't think that this particular instance is it....

Uh....if she's doing shadow puppets, then why is she not looking at the shadows she's casting but directly into the light instead?

How do they know that you wrote it yourself and didn't just steal it?

This is a rule to protect themselves. If there is ever a case around this, they can push the blame to the person that committed the code for breaking that rule.

E-scooter und Pedelecs haben sich auch durchgesetzt, obwohl am Anfang auch viele gesagt haben, dass das nichts bringt.

Am Ende des Tages wird sich aber einfach zeigen müssen ob die Kosten, der Nutzen und die Nachteile so in Einklang gebracht werden können, dass sich für den Volocopter eine Nische ergibt. Der Volocopter ist das erste (echte) Modell in einem neuen Zweig der Verkehrsmittel. Ich glaube das kann durchaus nochmal spannend werden.

I think you already gave yourself the answer in your own case:

Because I give zero crap about what other people think of me.

This applies to people that aren't in your inner circle. You want HER to be in that circle and suddenly it actually does matter what SHE thinks of you. You have little to lose with people you don't really care about, but everything to lose with people you do care about. It's an evil social twist that makes everything so complicated. High self-esteem is just the ability to quickly pull yourself up when you fall and the knowledge that you actually CAN do so. It mitigates the risks of "putting yourself out there".

Ich denke es gibt durchaus Dinge, die mit einer Drohne nicht gemacht werden können und für die ein Helikopter zu Overkill wäre. Die Lücke zwischen diesen beiden Systemen zu schließen finde ich jetzt nicht sinnlos. Ob sich das durchsetzen wird ist natürlich eine andere Frage und hängt stark vom Preis des Volocopters und der zugehörigen Infrastruktur ab.

Ich sag ja nicht, dass das System die Lösung aller Probleme ist. Elektrische Antriebe besitzen trotzdem gewisse Vorteile gegenüber Verbrennern. Zum Beispiel die Einsatzgeachwindigkeit. Du kannst dich einsetzen und sofort losfliegen.
