In German there is this kinda obscure phrase „Pferde vor der Apotheke kotzen sehen“, which translates to „seeing horses puke in front of the pharmacy“ used to denote something highly unlikely, because horses can’t puke and especially in front of a pharmacy where they could get something against their nausea.

I live in Augsburg, Germany. We have „the king“. He just declared himself king of Augsburg about 30 years ago and everyone just went with it. He spends his days walking through the city looking after the wellbeing of his people. Here’s a video-portrait by the local newspaper for his 70th birthday (in German)

AFAIK the Dutch model so far (consumption and sale somewhat allowed, but no growing or importing) has created huge criminal organisations that also started to do a lot of other crimes (bc what’s there to lose if you’re going to jail anyway basically) and a big goal in designing the new German law was to not mess it up like the Netherlands have

Wasn’t there a study on cats that concluded something like „cats know when you call their name but just don’t care“?

Hey, not fair. It’s one user, ok? I mean, that’s me, but still

As of November 8, coins like the "MOON" that r/CryptoCurrency used for tips, premium features, and even voting shares will be removed from users' Vaults. Noticing this, the value of most Reddit-based coins took a nearly straight drop on Tuesday after Reddit's announcements. MOON was trading just over $0.20 at 1 pm Eastern, shortly before the announcement in its subreddit. Shortly before 3 pm, MOON had dropped just below $0.02, a loss of more than 85 percent, with fellow Reddit currencies BRICK (r/FortNiteBR) and DONUT (r/EthTrader) seeing similarly precipitous plunges.

That is the most dystopian paragraph I’ve ever read, I think.

I think you can just sync the Obsidian Directory with any cloud service or syncthing and it should work fine.

I think the message is „Landlords and Murderers are bad people but even they are disgusted by people who use the term female to refer to women“

So I don’t know about Spanish criminal law in particular, but in Germany the criminal code states that it’s generally only applicable for acts committed on German territory, but there are multiple exemptions for offences committed abroad „with specific domestic connection“. This includes so called „offences against sexual self-determination“ if the offender is a German national. I could imagine that Spain has a similar rule.

Update: Seems I was (mostly) right, but spanish law is even broader than that of germany in these cases.

The Spanish courts shall also have jurisdiction over acts recognized as offences under Spanish criminal law, even if they have been committed outside the national territory, provided that the perpetrators are Spanish nationals or foreigners who have acquired Spanish nationality after the commission of the crime, and subject to the following conditions: (a) The act is an offence in the place where it was committed; (b) The victim or the Public Prosecution Service has filed a complaint or brought a case before the Spanish courts; (c) The alleged perpetrator has not been acquitted, pardoned or convicted abroad, or, in the latter case, has not served his or her sentence. If he or she has served part of the sentence, this will be taken into account in order to reduce proportionally the sentence imposed.
