Just tell them you’re not drinking alcohol for health reasons. Nobody will really disagree with you on this.

“Global elite” - I can hear that dog whistling from all the way over the Atlantic.
One more reason to maintain your own media library instead of relying on streaming services. Every single service can at any point and without notifying the user delete and alter content as well as remove features.
I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s related to many streaming services adding ads even for subscribers. Advertisers are notorious for driving censorship.
Germany is also the second largest contributor to UNRWA by total amount of money donated since 1952 and the largest donator of food in Gaza in 2023:
This very much goes against your claims that Germany is viewing this conflict through the lens of 80 years ago. Contrast the 27 million going to Holocaust survivors (a third of which is living in poverty, by the way) against 197 million donated to UNRWA last year and 48 million this year so far.
What a weird reply. Average poverty rate in Israel is 16.9%:

Almost twice as high points towards significant hardships for Holocaust survivors.
Global average is 46.9%, by the way (but Israel is relatively rich, so it doesn’t make sense to compare it to most of the world):
Given that one third of Israeli Holocaust survivors are living in poverty, a couple hundred bucks for each are more than just symbolic:
I’m curious if he was okay before.
I’ve seen people carelessly throw away their garbage right next to garbage bins, because they couldn’t be bothered to get a little closer or aim.
The bear has more determination, because it has an incentive to get to the tasty, high calorie food that doesn’t require the energy expenditure of chasing it down and tearing it apart. Throwing away garbage into a designated container on the other hand is a chore that some people believe they can skip, because they are the sole protagonists in their own stupid little world.
I’m probably missing a joke here, but irrecoverably as in they most likely needed another computer to fix it: In this case, create a new startup floppy disk - there was no hard drive, after all.
Have you looked at the source code of a capsule? It’s delightfully simple.
I considered mentioning it, but I’ve been accused of being far older than I am, simply because I know about things from the past, so I skipped it.
Similar idea, but entirely new. I don’t think many people even here know what Gopher is.
Not the project’s fault, given that it came out four years earlier.
What are your favorite sites?
Thank you!
I have to say though, the AI imagery is off-putting as an idea alone, because what else from the video is AI-generated? Text and perhaps even voice as well? I’ve seen this before, entirely artificial videos with absurd mistakes as part of the content or even entirely nonsensical content.
Which videos did you watch?
Is there a Gemini search engine?
I’ve found this one:
gemini://geminispace.info/
Needs a client to access, of course. Basic, but functional. I found a general-purpose forum not too different from reddit or lemmy through it (and they decided to call it a BBS, because the Eternal September hasn’t happened to Gemini yet):
gemini://bbs.geminispace.org/
Is there support for Forms/server side code
To the best of my understanding (and it’s highly limited, since I only just learned about this, so take everything with a grain of salt), what Gemini does is primarily limit what the client can do. No local scripts, highly limited markdown. The server side is not limited. You can write any complex code you want that works behind the scenes - but it still has to deliver static pages (called “capsules”) to the end user. This series of articles explains the basic underlying tech and uses the example of a simple server to illustrate how Gemini works:
And yes, forms are possible, even though there appears to be a somewhat widespread misconception that they are impossible. Please excuse the sketchy-looking IP address instead of a URL, this was the best resource I was able to find on this (and yes, I checked if this page is on Gemini - this appears to be not the case):

Disclaimer: This is two years old and I have not tried to implement it myself. Looks entirely plausible though.
How big is it? Is there like just a few sites or a few hundred?
According to the search engine linked above, there are 2420 domains and 1,854,666 individual pages as of yesterday. This is about comparable to the World Wide Web at the same time 1994, a number that grew to 10,000 by the end of that year; I wouldn’t expect the same explosive growth from Gemini - the field has already been plowed, after all. Gemini Space is small, but not a ghost town.
The type of capitalism found in China is known as state capitalism and it’s an unholy blend of central planning and free markets, with the government owning significant stakes in all key industries, exerting a massive control over both the economy and society as a whole using all of the methods used by previous Communist autocracies, only this time with far more technology.
