Oh god, I needed to read this comment to actually understand the joke of the post.

I‘m stuck in a dunning-Kruger-loop. I think I’m kinda smart so that must meant I’m actually kinda dumb but then if I think I’m dumb that must mean I’m actually smart but if I think im smart it must mean I’m really kinda dumb…

Have you tried mirroring your display instead of streaming directly?

I gave up asking, but when she’s down it’s a straight forward „wanna have sex?“

My bad, what you wrote and quoted made no sense to me as a response to my comment or the one I responded to.

I think you responded to the wrong guy

Haven’t you made it past primary school yet?

I wish it were that easy in German!

Definitely not. While some people in Germany learn a bit of French as a third language in school, you’ll definitely be better off with English.

I never noticed hotel names being often French. It might come from an attempt to sound more exotic or luxurious within Germany. The comments might have just been French tourists. It’s the biggest neighbouring country after all.

Probably joy/happiness

I’m here! How did you not see me?

How so?

Happiness depends heavily on where in the world you are employed by which airline and what you make of it with your personal attitude. The spectrum of work/life balance is huge and payment can range from negative (pay us to allow you to fly for us) to big bucks (who has the time to spend this much?). Different labour rights in different countries like being fired and deported on a whim or strong unions and rights that protect you almost no matter what. How much free time do you have? Both at destination and at home, what is more important for whom? I had to retire due to a brain cancer diagnosis. So medical stuff is another slippery slope. Back pains? Migranes? You’re on your way out. I loved the job though. I was flexible enough to not be bothered by last minute changes to my flight roster or irregular sleep schedules. Not having kids and a stay-at-home wife helped with that as well. (If your partner works as well, the time you actually see each other can get scarce.) This also applies to friends. Wanna go out with me on a Friday? Should have told me two months ago so I could have requested off days… you get the idea.

En-route nothing would happen for a while correct. Plane goes on as long as it has a programmed route to follow and fuel to stay in the air. But keep in mind that, around the planet, thousands of airplanes are about to land right now. Landings are like 95% flown manually so if all those are suddenly empty in the cockpit they’ll crash pretty much immediately.

Thousands of deaths within seconds. Airline pilot

You feel an emotion based on the context. Be it in a live action movie, anime, pictures or even less visual with plain text.

I‘m on Memmy as I type this but will give Mlem a try. Thank you!

What always annoyed me about that claim was that mac isn’t magically virus safe but rather was so unpopular that nobody would have bothered to code malware to run on it.

As I‘m eager to learn: How would you explain (LI5) what a VPN is? I was never happy about this „it’s like a tunnel through the internet“ trope.

Since the pandemic I have realised that doctors are just people as well and will make up bs as it suits them as well. Like those fake mask exemptions and what not…

At my last dermatologist appointment he asked me unsolicited „so how many times did you receive the poison injection?“ First I thought he was referring to chemo because we were talking about my cancer. But then he clarified he meant the Covid vaccine.
