  • Ice is more dense than oil, so it sinks to the bottom of the fryer. There it turns into liquid water anathema immediately into steam. This steam needs at least 1000 times more space than the ice cube (1700 times more than water under normal pressure) and blows all the oil out of the fryer. I would expect quite a fountain. In a science fair experiment 10ml of water in a cup of hot oil gave a considerable fireball and a splash zone of about 1.5m. Dropping in a piece of dry ice (solid carbon dioxide) just made a little bit of a fizzle.

    Seit den 90er oder so wurden viele Krankenhäuser privatisiert, weil das mach Neoliberaler Ansicht finanziell für alle günstiger war. Die Investoren zogen Gewinne raus, investierten wenig in die Zukunft und nun stehen die Krankenhäuser vor dem finanziellen Ruin. Natürlich werden jetzt die Verluste vom Staat aufgefangen.

    Manchmal denke ich, das war der Plan von Anfang an….

    It depends on what you want to achieve.

    Vi and it’s descendants are brilliant editors for a programmer but not for writing prose. So stay away from them. ;-)

    Do you want just to write text without being distracted by an overwhelming gui or are you fine with the hint at options?

    Do you want to write in a terminal?

    How much do you want to format while typing? By typing the format commands into the text or by clicking on buttons or ctrl-key magic?

    Do you need version control?

    For each of your combination of answers there are different solutions.





  • The official denazification ended in both parts of Germany before 1950. All the Nazis were needed. It was not talked about what individuals had done before 45.

    In the GDR it was by definition that all the Nazis had gone to the FRG. Prosecution came to a standstill. Nothing like the Zentralstelle in Ludwigsburg existed.

    The silence about the time ended in the FRG with the Auschwitz trials in Frankfurt and the student movement from the mid 60ies onwards. Willy Brandt on his knees in Warsaw kicked off some hearty discussions. Later there was the Holocaust TV series with a heavy impact.

    And this is the real denazification of the population. The discourse about personal responsibility for historical events changed the society. I had such Nazi teachers in the 70ies, but they got challenged by younger teachers and older pupils. My music teacher went into early retirement after he was challenged for his current and past behaviour.

    This has reached about 2/3 of the population in the west. The rest is still authoritarian and votes for AFD and CDU. In the east authoritarianism is still wide spread, because challenging authority was not a good idea under SED rule. And after the Wende it was all sugar coated by Kohl.

    The problem will sadly grow, I fear. Because people who are not happy with the political climate can move away. And they do it, just got a new neighbour from Chemnitz.









  • You can’t delete a mail you sent me, nor put your hand written letter to me in the bin. I can keep both and I can keep your name and addresses in my little black book. So there isn’t even that level of privacy in the real old fashioned communication.

    And communication over the Internet was always the subject of storage. Your mail may be on the backup tape of a mail server. Your usenet posting is on archive.

    So the assumption that the fediverse can forget….
