    Markdown erlaubt es Bilder von externen Servern einzubinden. Man kann das Bild bei einem der schätzungsweise drölftausend kostenlosen Imagehostern hochladen und so verwenden. Wenn man den Link zur Datei in das Link Feld packt wird das so angezeigt als wäre es hier bei Lemmy hochgeladen worden. Und in den Body des Posts kannst du es mit folgender Syntax integrieren:

    ![alt text](https://hoster.tld/path/to/file.extention)

    Kann man übrigens auch machen wenn das animierte Gifs zu groß ist um bei Lemmy hochgeladen zu werden oder wenn man einfach den Speicherplatz der eigenen Instanz schonen möchte.





  • Be aware that rebooting doesn’t shut down the Eye of Harmony (at least for models Type 61 and older - newer models can have an optional dimensional transfer to mitigate the problem). Rebooting all systems while the star powering your TARDIS is still dimensionally attached can lead to a high build-up of Archon Energy that needs to be disposed quickly. not doing so will result in your TARDIS trying to use it internally by changing the layout of your rooms and possibly even the desktop theme of your main control room.

    An easier way to archive what you are trying to do, is to access the remote management interface. That require you to own a new-ish sonic screwdriver (at least last years model) as only the new ones come with the necessary holographic UI library to do anything more than remote summoning or launching preprogrammed macros.









  • No the episode is definitely a commentary on racism. The inhabitants of Finetime are not just gen z, they are explicitly upper class gen z. They have literally blue blood. They are very Tory-coded.

    The whole episode is riddled with micro aggressions from Lindy towards the doctor. Here is a possibly incomplete list of them:

    • declining the Doctors call in the cold open. but taking Ruby’s later on
    • suspecting the Doctor is responsible for the situation
    • being disgusted by Ruby and the Doctor being in the same room
    • not noticing the Doctor and the person calling her in the morning where one and the same, saying she just thought they “looked the same”
    • Introducing the Doctor to her friends with the words “he is not as stupid as he looks” and suggesting he would be punished later on

    There is also the mention of a cleanse, which takes on a very different meaning after the twist especially since not just the majority of the Finetime characters but all of them are white.

    The whole episode is designed to make you question your own perceptiveness of racism. After the twist you are supposed to go “how could I have been so blind?”. I recommend a rewatch. And no, I didn’t pick up on it at first. I did notice some of them as weird, but noticed what all of them have in common only at the end.






  • I like the term “extermination” which the ICC’s chief prosecutor used in his charging document against Bibi.

    Genocide requires intent. There is at least the possibility that Israel is merely showing careless disregard and willful ignorance towards Palestinian lifes. That doesn’t make a practical difference, of course. The fact that Israel is maybe? not as racist as they could be, doesn’t help all the dead or starving civilians.

    That’s why I like the term extermination. It’s precise but doesn’t require intent. It doesn’t imply that Israels interest in defeating Hamas is merely a smokescreen (for the record: I don’t think Hamas can be defeated militarily, but I understand the interest).

    And it does all that without being a euphemism.

    Edit: a previous version of this contained a Freudian slip where I confused the names of Biden and Netanjau.

    “Ob Links- oder Rechtsterrorismus - da sehe ich keinen Unterschied.” “Doch, doch”, ruft das Känguru, “die einen zünden Ausländer an, die anderen Autos. Und Autos sind schlimmer, denn es hätte meines sein können. Ausländer besitze ich keine.”

  • Because the Eurovision Song Contest is organised by the European Broadcasting Union (EBU). The EBUs primary purpose is to develop and manage technical standards for European TV and Radio. The FLAC audio file format for example was developed in part by the EBU. They are here to make sure a TV or Radio bought in Portugal will also work in Finland and every country in between.

    As such they don’t really care all that much whether a country is technically located in Europe or not. As long as it makes sense for a country to be part in the European Broadcasting Area it is allowed to join the organisation. That’s why North African countries such as Egypt are part of the EBU and that’s why Israel is a full member.

    Australias case is a bit different. They are here despite not being full members. The participating broadcaster SBS is merely an associate member giving them the same status as American networks CBS or NBC. The inclusion of the singers from down under started as a joke to celebrate the shows anniversary and then they stuck around because SBS payed enough money and general audiences liked the idea.
