Aren’t Austrians just Germans pretty much?

The FPÖ certainly thinks so, yeah. Most of the rest of us do not.

Wikis were invented as a way, and are a good solution when the goal is, to crowdsource objective facts about the world.

The great thing about a wiki is that as long as one person once added any given fact, it is in the wiki.

On all contentious issues, by definition there are not too few people wanting to write about them, but instead there are too many, so this is why wikis are just not a suitable mechanism for writing about anything contentious: they're a solution to a nonexistent problem and there is no rational reason why truth about any given issue should be determined by "who has managed to edit the page last".

Alle Leute als Kinder und Jugendliche: "Ich hasse es, wenn Erwachsene mir etwas vorschreiben wollen. Ich weiß selbst, was ich will und was gut für mich ist."

Dieselben Leute ein paar Jahrzehnte später: "Kinder und Jugendliche wissen nicht, was sie wollen und was gut für sie ist."

Ich hoffe, ich fange nie an, letzteres zu denken.

There is no one place to get everyone's private data (IP addresses, email addresses). It is of course still possible that someone may get that data from one instance, but that gives them data from only a small subset.

What is the difference between believers and heretics? Well, the heretics believe that 2+2 equals 3. Meanwhile, we believers know that 2+2 obviously equals 5.

It used to be the case that YouTube comments were one of the lowest forms of communication known to mankind. It isn't anymore, not for several years now. There actually are sometimes some intelligent insights displayed prominently there. I suppose they probably changed their algorithm somehow.

JavaScript has created a cross-platform world in which people can do most things without being locked into their OS. That is a good thing.

Not in about:config, there is a setting in the normal preferences for that.
