@truls46@mastodon.social @hart@norden.social Der Tweet ist von ihm, aber das Zitat kann er beim nächsten AKW-Lobbytreffen seinem Bruder anhängen.
@thejessiekirk@ohai.social @pdebruin@hachyderm.io @arstechnica@mastodon.social Are you referring to the reaaonably sized care made and designed by Ford in Europe that you can't even buy in the US? Don't worry, it looks like they're mismanaging these into oblivion as well. :-/
As for pickup trucks, I see very few around Germany, Netherlands, Belgium + some. Are they a thing elsewhere in Europe!? I hope not.

@zed @vonxylofon No, don't _say_ it!
If you talk about talking, it's the same in Germany. We rarely _say_ "18 Uhr", but rather "6 Uhr abends". Or even just "6". Or " Kaffeezeit" (coffee time, probably slmetim brtween 15:30 or 16:00). Because speech tolerates more ambiguity and has more context.
But as a written notation it's just so umsystematic and error prone.

@zed @vonxylofon sure, a non-numerical, non-incremental representation of a number is better.
Maybe it's hard to imagine, but over here many people can't remember if AM or PM is earlier in the day. Not everyone learns Latin anymore, not even in Germany.

@vonxylofon @zed 3rd grade in Germany. So nine years old is about right.
12:00 isn't a special time for anybody anymore, like highest point of the sun, time for lunch or anything. So am/pm is just as artificial and learned these days.

@JeffGrigg @bsdphk @Natasha_Jay Unfortunate misunderstanding. "Fix it on the first day of the week!" means Monday, not Sunday.

Unrelated note: Can you do "do while" loops?
OK, better than dickpics I guess. 😉
