    I don’t know where this “they tried hitting war infrastructure” myth comes from.

    Same with the bombing in Germany. They literally rebuild German city houses in the desert, to figure out the best way how to blow off the roof and set the wooden structures inside on fire.

    They measured fire brigade response times to stage the bombing in a way to hit the rescue efforts.

    It was about demoralizing the civil populace, so of course it was never about military targets.


  • I mean, would be neat to make something like “I want to fly there, so give me options, check also for rental cars and vacation homes with this-and-those constraints, give me a list and prices” and have it have a go on it. That would really make family vacation easier if I could trust the results.

    But, lo and behold, I cannot trust the results at all, so it keeps being a fantasy (which destroys the world in the meantime, like, ecologically and economically). Then again: after destroying everything, no need for family vacation planning, so, yeah?







  • Yeah, because breaking the inflation pressure is always on the workforce, never on the companies.

    I only ever heard “you should abstain from wanting higher salaries, 'cause inflation”. Never has a politician or economist said “companies should abstain from raising prices, 'cause inflation” ¯\_(ツ)_/¯



  • nämlich die Zeitpunkte, wo Sonnenaufgang und Sonnenuntergang zeitlich gleich weit entfernt sind.

    Die liegen aber, aufgrund der elliptischen Bahn der Erde, nicht zur selben Uhrzeit im Sommer und Winter. Sondern “mittag (höchster Sonnenstand, aka Auf- und Untergang gleich weit entfernt)” ist im Winter bspw. um 12 Uhr, aber im Sommer halt um 12:30 (das variiert je nach geographischer Breite, in D macht das ca. eine halbe Stunde aus).

    Edit: weil ich nicht weiß, ob das verständlich war. Wenn man eine Uhr bspw. am 1. Januar am Sonnenzenit auf 12 Uhr stellt und die ein halbes Jahr laufen lässt, dann wird sie am 30. Juni zum Sonnenzenit ca. 12:30 zeigen (und um 12 Uhr eben nicht “mittag” sein, sondern kurz davor).
