Please be aware that this doesn't include electricity and cooling, which is really expensive in Germany. They charge 0.476€/kWh. Running a single 4090 @ 450W 24/7 would add another…

The easiest way to improve your relative ranking is to find a less competitive event :) I recently won my age class in a 10k (6th overall out of 147 men). In a very competitive rac…

Do you have private health insurance? Because from my personal experience (in Cologne), the interaction goes like this: “I need an appointment for an MRI.” “Next one I can offer is…

From my experience in DE, it depends on the company size. Larger enterprises probably will go through an agency, probably to (try to) cover themselves against accusations of false …

This needs a [2017]. I naively hope that everyone involved in our industry has learned a lit bit about security in the last 5 years.

The vulnerability is not in the front panel. It‘s the panel on the inside that accepts a code reset command without valid authentication.

> "Loud pipes save lives" is nonsense. When a driver is concentrated on visual stimuli, has his windows up and music playing, there are no pipes loud enough to make him notice me. …

No, not yet, but you can bet that I check on a regular basis, although I should know better :) A little backstory: a friend of mine sold a five letter single word .com about a deca…

I recently sold a five letter single word .io domain for 5k, which was the median of the estimated value according to various (free) appraisal services. The person I sold it to imm…

> Which is exactly the reaction those kinds of headlines are fishing for. Not sure I get your point. Do you want to imply that 100B in capital gains would be preferable over a 100B…

This might come as a surprise to folks who do not own stocks and are not aware of the difference between income and (unrealized) capital gains. According to this article [1] from 2…

The CPU is not an issue, it’s the SSDs. Chia mining (or more precisely the creation of plots to farm Chia) is a write-heavy process that will literally wear out SSDs. See https://g…

It is definitely colloquial and not a word you’d use everyday, but it is in Duden: https://www.duden.de/rechtschreibung/Kummerspeck

The title has been editorialized, the study comes to a different conclusion: > Mechanical compression alone did not explain the rise in serum testosterone, although it may have a c…

I followed the link before I read your comment. On mobile, I did not notice that there is any scarring or thought it was just rendering artifacts. I would expect your results to be…

According to the about page, "the employees" consist of one guy working on it in his spare time.

I'm not a financial expert, but I think "börsennotiert" (listed on the stock exchange) is much more common than "kotiert", at least in Germany.

Assuming immunity, you could take care of your parents, grandparents and other high-risk people. You’d have to balance the risk of a false-positive test and wrong assumptions about…

The difference is that a phone might get hot when the camera is running 24/7 and CPU load is high, e.g. due to motion detection. To add some anecdata: I had an old iPhone (IIRC a 4…

Elon Musk claimed in a tweet that the roadster can beat a time of 6:44 min on the Nürburgring Nordschleife, which is (currently) 20.832 km long. The current lap record for street l…

According to the technical specifications, the security rating is: IWA 14: V/2,500(N1G)/48/90:4.5 IWA 14: V/7,200(N3C)/32/90:4.8 I interpret that like this: 2,500 kg vehicle travel…

Most of the discussions focus on end-users, here is an anecdote how this affects businesses: my current client recently moved to Cologne, the 4th largest city in Germany. They orde…

IANAL, but if I'm reading §2 correctly, that only applies to patentable inventions.

Surprisingly, there are no official statistics on homelessness in Germany. Any numbers you see are not from the federal government, but probably from BAGW, a charitable organizatio…
