  • Imho (not a huge football expert, nor enthousiast), it was quite competitive. Both teams were so active to give neither one the chance to score until in the last minutes they put all of their energy into it to surprise the other one. I know, that it can be seen as boring (I also kinda thought the same most of the time), but damn… the response to the opportunities where quite fast and saved most of the goals. But imo Spain had much better gameplay and opportunities. Shame of those offsides




  • I for sure will get downvoted for this. But the glasses are not the problem, it’s the potential misuse. There are actually lots of applications where augmented reality comes in handy, as for example heads up information related to instructions, or, for example, in a much earlier time, people with, e.g., autism, got a feedback with an emoji, what the mood of the other person was. Or, for example, reading sign language without having thousands of hours spent on that. There are so many useful applications and people are just censoring the technology like they would censor the way now it’s mandatory to check for ID’s. I really get the idea, that mass surveillance is bad. No discussion about that. But cameras can be used in a good way. The problematic thing is, that you don’t really can’t tell if somebody is recording you or just using it neatly. But that’s the same with smartphones. Everytime somebody is holding his/her smartphone up, doing something, I also think “is he/she recording me right now? Nah, it’s probably just used properly…”




  • That’s the difference between “story” and “HIstory”. History should be remembered. But of course the more accurate it has to be described, the less feasible it is to record and observe all of that. And that’s not for children to do, but for historians. Children should learn essential parts from history, though. Maybe some age-appropriate stories are good for that. Of course, children are the future and so we should make them able to imagine a better world, a more inclusive one with lesser (or ideally without any) non-harmful boundaries. So yes, let anyone being able to dream of becoming a princess or a frog or whatever he/she/anything wants to be.







  • That seems like a nice start to adopt Linux to the mainstream market. If there are more products, it maybe will be like with Android phones. I’m happy there seems to be more alternatives nowadays. Just installed one of my Steam games on my now semi Linux PC and I find it pretty cool that I can now play on that. Before, with just an emulator, it doesn’t really feel the same.
