DACH - Deutschsprachige Community für Deutschland, Österreich, Schweiz@feddit.org•Seit dem iPhone sinkt die Geburtenrate
14·17 hours agoFinde auch großartig, wie noch geschlussfolgert wird:
An den Kosten von Elternschaften liege der Rückgang der Geburtenrate indes es nicht.
Wenn’s weniger kosten würde, und nicht oftmals die Karriere-Chancen torpedieren würde, dann würden vielleicht mehr Kinder wollen und man wäre nicht auf ungewollte Schwangerschaften angewiesen.

12·17 hours agoNaja, da steht halt, dass mehr Zugang zu Informationen über Verhütung mit ein Grund für den Rückgang ist.
Wenn die Teenager schwanger werden wöllten, dann wäre Verhütungsinformation kein Hindernis. Man kann das Kondom o.Ä. einfach weglassen.Ähnlich bei “weniger Geschlechtsverkehr”. Wenn sich zwei gefunden haben, die Kinder wollen, dann kriegen die das hin, ausreichend Geschlechtsverkehr zu haben, egal was in der Statistik steht und auch ohne dass das bisschen Kinder-mach-Sex großartig die Statistik beeinflusst.
Also im Grunde ist es auch da so, dass wenn die Gesamtmenge an Sex zurückgeht, dass hauptsächlich die Zahl ungewollter Schwangerschaften zurückgeht, weil es einfach weniger oft mit der Verhütung klappen muss.

Zocken@feddit.org•PlayStation Store Klage: „Kaufen“ heißt nicht besitzen – Sony vor Gericht
2·19 hours agoWäre schon gut, wenn sie das mal etwas offensichtlicher machen müssen, auch wenn in dem Fall die Änderung wahrscheinlich einfach nur so aussieht:

KaufenBezahlenDa wäre mal eine Umfrage gut. Kann mir sehr gut vorstellen, dass einem Großteil der Kundschaft nicht so wirklich bewusst ist, was sie da einkaufen.

Cooking @lemmy.world•Chicory with potatoes and a steak for lunch today.
2·23 hours agoYeah, the naming seems to be all over the place.
From what I found online, what you ate would be referred to as “chicory greens”, if we’re being specific.
And the white ones, Wikipedia primarily calls “Belgian endive”, but then also:
Belgian endive is known in Dutch as witloof or witlof (“white leaf”), indivia in Italy, endivias in Spain, chicory in the UK, as witlof in Australia, endive in France and Canada, and chicon in parts of northern France, in Wallonia and (in French) in Luxembourg.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Can things exist without anyone being aware of their existence?
3·24 hours agoThe atoms are there for sure, but we could argue, whether it is a thing/object without an animal being aware of it, since it’s us that define things to be objects.
The universe doesn’t care whether a pile of atoms behind Pluto happens to be chair-shaped. It’s only when we look at it, that we declare it an object.
Interesting, I only know chicory as these bad boys:

Gonna throw in EtherPad. It’s been like ten years, since I properly used it, but I believe, it’s relatively minimal, so pretty much just Markdown.
There’s also lots of publicly hosted instances you can use: https://scanner.etherpad.org/
I mean, yeah, how would you close your legs with the penis now stuck in there?

Oddly Satisfying@lemmy.world•How I fit the most frozen samosas in my air fryerEnglish
16·2 days agoIt hurts my brain that you somehow end up with a heptagon. The triangles, the rectangle in the center, it all feels like you should get a hexagon…
Yeah, I feel like Christians make a big deal out of life vs. death. Life is declared this super great thing that was gifted to them by their god. And death is described like an eternal departure into the unknown.
Meanwhile, if you view things in a much more mundane way, life is just your atoms jiggling about. It’s not particularly bad, when they stop jiggling together.
But even if you do prefer them being part of a pile that’s deemed ‘alive’, your left toe is probably gonna get eaten by a worm and brought into a field, where a plant will pick up the atoms and grow some seeds, which get carried by a bird into the next forest and so on. Your atoms will almost certainly be part of many alive piles of atoms going forward.
Fairerweise sind die auch oft da, falls es zu Auseinandersetzungen mit Nazis kommt…

Sociology@mander.xyz•Share of respondents who sometimes/often actively avoid the news (2017 vs. 2026)English
1·2 days agoProbably also has to do with more people being online / on social media. Don’t have to actively avoid news, if you just get them once per day via newspaper or TV.
Better than the original. As in, it’s a faithful reimplementation with quality of life improvements, like higher resolution, support for modern operating systems, and most loading times eliminated.
I believe, there’s still tiny differences to how the original behaved in certain situations, which is why they don’t call it “1.0” yet, but you’re not going to notice while playing.

Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL cheese is fundamentally just fat, protein...English
8·3 days agoMan, you seem to get much nicer vegan cheese. In the shops here, it’s just slices of hardened fat with flavoring and no protein.
Some brands do make it taste like real Gouda, but it still feels so very pointless to throw just some fat onto your bread. Might as well eat the bread by itself or, you know, with real food like baked beans or dal or such.

Linguistics@mander.xyz•How different countries and languages represent barking dog sound in words
5·3 days agoYeah, same for German “wuff”. The pronunciation is slightly softer in “woof”, but there’s no letters you could use to make it sound more similar.
This week at work, I had to use a brainstorming board software that I’m not familiar with, for an outside collaboration.
And the meeting organizer asked us to put a picture of ourselves onto the board, so we can track who’s working on what.I thought, you could do that with the “Sticker” feature, because it had a file upload dialog. So, I upload my photo there and after a few more clicks, nope, that’s not how you do that. Instead, it had generated 4 pictures of me in dumb poses.
I would love to know what they were thinking:
- There was no explanation, so why would I assume that the file upload dialog isn’t just a way to add custom images?
- It’s rather creepy to just take my picture and spit out fakes in poses I’ve never been in.
- Who’s actually going to use this? I’m sure some folks find it hilarious, but only the first time around, too.
Yeah, all in all, it just felt like they had to shoehorn in an AI feature, without rhyme or reason.


















Keine Ahnung, müsste man wahrscheinlich das Paper lesen.
Könnte mir vorstellen, dass sie einfach betrachtet haben, ob die Kosten für ein Kind im Verhältnis zu den Einkommen gestiegen ist. Wenn nein, dann ist es ja schon erstmal legitim zu sagen, dass es nicht durch eine Veränderung bei dem Faktor zustande kam.
Aber letzten Endes muss man sich auch bewusst sein, dass die Interpretation der Daten nicht Teil der Studie ist. Da wird eben wirklich meist nur sehr stumpf zusammengefasst, was in den Daten steht…
