Trappattoni. Was famous for his creative speech, particularly during after game press conferences.

But how does one come to 590 is 600% less than 600? 🤷🏻‍♂️

I mean 50% twice being 0 is just being stupid. But 10 off 600 being 600% is beyond even heavily weaponised stupidity. 😵‍💫

Ah, Happy Scintillating Scotoma Day for those who celebrate. Been a while, assume this has something to do with the bronchitis and fever of the last few days.

I’ve grown used to German subtitles missing the mark, or using different colloquialisms because the English one is uncommon, but this is English for a show in English and it is just so wrong.

Home Sick.

Which would show up as a subtitle as Homesick in the case of whatever thing is doing subtitles on Amazon.

They would both die of self-inflicted wounds.

Spoken: Identify yourself!
Subtitle: Hello, is anyone there?

Spoken: The one about his broken wrist, that was true
Subtitle: The one with his broken wrist, she voted.

It feels like every second sentence is wrongly translated.

Spoken: You should be grateful
Subtitle: They should be thankful

I’m beginning to suspect that something is trying to auto-translate the German subtitles to English. How bizarre.

Rewatching elementary because I’m stuck home sick and bored and I have an issue. I watch with subtitles because I don’t always catch everything spoken, but the subtitles are wrong. Fatal instead of deadly, House instead of building. War instead of ‚were‘. It’s really bad and rampant.

They’re not great at naming and differentiating things. See how many animals are named ‚-pig‘.

Best you’d find is whirled peas, I think.

Land mines?

A late 60s GMC pickup in blue-green.

Such a meh car. I once ran across a late 60s GMC pickup which was my first car back in the US. Was even the custom camper version with the extended range tanks. (Which was necessary, it was such a gas guzzler).

These are like the same lists that recommend rolling up all your shirts to maximize space. Yes, great, so instead of a wrinkle free folded shirt, I know have a wrinkled mess to deal with. 🙄

An electrical socket that lets you be very flexible about how you plug things in as it’s a grid of holes for standard eu plugs.

Ah, the Swiss Danger Socket. Art Lebedev made a real EU one at some point.

Drop your crime fighting Catholics.

Thus far it’s nothing in the 10.10.*.* range, nor the 192.168.*.* range. Should be in there according to two different documents from different years. Python on windows can’t handle a *.*.*.* search. Need to make a special cable and disconnect the temp controller to connect serially. 🙄

Note to vendor: if you neglect to give use our agreed on default PLC IP addresses, a very annoyed diebesbeute is left sitting for hours in front of the machine doing an nmap ping scans unsuccessfully 😑🤬

‚Your earlier instinct…‘ instead of ‚oh, Sorry, I was wrong‘. 😑

I’ve just spent 10 minutes going from not knowing anything about this person, watching a weird interview and briefly getting the gist of what he is pushing. I am now at the point of wishing I had spent that 10 minutes doing literally anything else.

There was a house near us that we tried to rent, but the landlord decided my job in semiconductor had no future. Forced us to keep looking and we found a house to buy. That was 2008 and the other place is still empty.

A platter of cheese and what at first glance look like donuts, but are cheese as well.

Savoury donuts!

£200 a night really isn’t that much. Especially a family. I’m in a hotel on the outskirts of Berlin that’s already €110 a night and it was one of the cheaper options.

Watching an increasingly annoyed looking magpie build a nest in one of our trees and keeps either getting the nest material caught in the branches, or dropping it and having to retrieve. I hope they aren’t as protective as crows when it comes to defending their nest. Painful memories from childhood.

A milling machine cutting a pattern in to a foam plate.

More patterns, more foam.

Final pic showing the mill spindle over one of the finished foam plates.

Foam inserts for some metrology tools for a friend. Mistakes were made, but should work out in the end.

Kam das von die Deutschen, oder haben die das von die Niederländer übernommen? Weil hier heißt jetzt eher Orange/Orangensaft und Niederländer nennen es immer noch sinaasappel/sinassappelsap.

Am speechless. 😲

Two men playing Boules/Pétanque.

Vor ein paar Jahren war ich in Palaiseau bei diese große wissenschaftzentrum und bei Mittagessen mitten zwischen diese große neue Gebäuden war ein gut besuchte Boules/Pétanque spielfeld.
