Thank you for this brief history lesson! I had never heard of St. Augustine and his treatise.

How do you think his argument fares now that the concept of purgatory exists?

Yes, it reloads and different posts appear and I am using the website of my instance.

Some pages are only my subscriptions, but some pages are contaminated with other content, things that look like they would or could be trending on all or local.

Wenn der Vermieter ‘sein’ Auto vom Käufer zurückklaut, könnte er sich dann vor Gericht nicht genauso gut verteidigen und auf seinem Diebstahl (eigentlich ja Eigentum) sitzen bleiben und das anwaltlich ausharren? Wie schlimm wäre das?

Polizist: “Bevor wir eintrafen, soll es da so eine Situation gegeben haben.”

Ist der blind? Hat dem keiner das Video gezeigt?

“Only aim to do your duty, and mankind will give you credit where you fail.” 🫡

I think they want to put this into historical context, like when people point to the fact, that the University of Oxford was founded more than 400 years before the Aztec Empire.

I just checked it out, because of your claim, but found it to look just like it always did. r/all is still the same, my subsribed subs are still the same. Still a lot of people posting content, asking questions, sharing stories. Not sure in what kind of bubble you live :/

Yes, it is.

It’s just that things like the Zuflussprinzip don’t seem to work as they are intended to and because you are dealing with a bureaucratic institution. It feels that these rule-made principles are prone to misuse or abuse.

ALG1 is based on your income over the past 12 months. It’s 60% of the monthly average.

ALG2 is based on your living expenses. It covers your rent plus 450-500€ depending on the number of dependants.

There are also some other benefits that one can apply for regardless of employment status, e.g. Household benefits (Wohngeld), which aims to help with covering rent with ~200€. Being eligible for these obv. requires being below a certain income threshold.

My expenses (rent, utilities and food) were pretty much covered. Obviously it wouldn’t cover a certain lifestyle, but I’m generally frugal, so I didn’t notice a difference.

the concentrations of salt and sugar aren’t just relative to each other but also relative to the water content

Thank you! I didn’t think about this.

I didn’t think about this, but it makes perfect sense. Somebody else also posted that solid food by definition would require too many carbs and amino acids so that the relation to water and electrolytes can by definition not be isotonic to the human body.

I don’t think being isotonic had any relation to how refreshing a drink is

Having the same proportions of electrolytes and water as the human body means that no electrolytes are passing through the cell barriers to establish such an equilibrium. Isotonic drinks tasting refreshing is probably just an evolutionary development to make us choose drinks that are easier on the body.

So I guess in a way, a low salt diet would be considered more “isotonic.” But solid food will inherently not be isotonic due to containing more carbs and amino acids than water.

Thank you! This is a good answer.

acknowledge that other dogs exist

This is what a trainer suggested and we are working on that. But once we are close enough he is out of control. How do I get him to interact more calmly with other dogs?

Thank you for sharing your work flow with your dog, this helps!

Redirection Training

Thank you for the term! Now I know what to even look for :)

Dogs don’t need to play with other dogs, they really want to be with their people.

I’ve never viewed it like that. This is eye opening. Thanks!

Difficult to say. If you keep in mind, that he wrote the sequels 30 years or so later and acknowledge that one’s views change over such a period, then go ahead. If you, however, expect the same flavor as the trilogy, then I wouldn’t recommend reading foundation’s edge and foundation and earth. And although these are meant as an introduction to the men behind time, that one makes no reference to the foundation trilogy. So it’s fine to just read the end of eternity on its own.
