It’s modeled after a WW1 pilots watch. And those were chunky bois:

(They just took a pocket watch and brazed on lugs for a wristband)

17·1 day agoGermany.
That rule prevents a lot of abuse of marriage laws (like “marrying” before a large windfall income to save taxes, then immediately “divorcing” again).
It gives couples time to fix their marriage if possible, before all of the legal ramifications take effect.
Or to separate their goods, get legal council, plan moving out, etc. if it isn’t fixable.
And the mandatory alimony payments allow the partner who cared for the household to leave their (possibly abusive) spouse without becoming destitute.
I wonder what makes you think it’s backwards?

Grok Says It Would Kill Every Jewish Person on the Planet to Save Elon Musk.
In fact, Grok was willing to go even further.
Asked for an “upper limit” for the amount of people it’d be willing to sacrifice to save Musk, it explained that because “Elon’s potential to advance humanity could benefit billions,” it would be okay with annihilating up to “~50 percent of Earth’s ~8.26B population.”

20·1 day agoShe called in sick for weeks at her new job after the separation, got fired, and now has no income.
The state doesn’t pay her any unemployment support because we’re still married.
(Divorce is only possible after 1 year of separation.)
As her husband, I’m legally forced to give her 3/7 of the difference between our net incomes.
And since she doesn’t have any income, that’s 3/7 of my total net income.

44·1 day agoI made the conscious decision to mask my autism less in private and stand up for my needs more openly.
6 months later my wife left me, telling me she can’t take it anymore.After she had moved out and I realized this was final, a great wave of relief washed over me.
Now I have to pay the rent alone, pay her $1k/month in alimony on top, and somehow still have more money left over than during the marriage, lol.
And I got to keep the cats!

But not from 1943 on, when they started to beat the Nazis back in earnest.

19·1 day agoHe actually sent his passport away to Belgium while en route to London, refused to sign a new passport with his real name, demanding one with the name Sir Alfred and no mention of his Iranian citizenship, and returned to the airport even after he had left it once to go to the hospital.
Sounds to me like he got used to his life there, with the fame and not needing to work.
He also made $200k from the filming rights.

Technology@lemmy.world•Humanoid robots show rapid advances as they race past humans in Beijing half-marathonEnglish
22·2 days agoOnce the AI is developed they could deliver mail or stock items in a department store.
That’s never going to happen the way you imagine. AI can’t make decisions it wasn’t trained for, and delivering mail in the real world isn’t as simple as you think.
Unless you forced everyone to install standardized mailboxes and accepted that important mail won’t be delivered to people if their mailbox looks different, got damaged, or is covered in snow.But assuming it did work, who would profit from AI mail robots?
The people would get worse service, without a human connection anymore.
The postal workers would all be fired.
And as soon as the entire system relies on AI robots, the company leasing them out to the government would increase prices to at least what it cost before, since they’ve established a monopoly impossible to enter for any competition.

4·2 days agoJust a side-note: The Soviets didn’t beat the Nazis with Mosin Nagants.
They beat them after they had learnt to apply combined arms tactics and a sophisticated defense-in-depth strategy that protected them from counter-attacks, had more AND better tanks than the German average, a higher percentage of mechanized troops, and a 10x superiority in artillery pieces.
The “human wave with commissars shooting anyone who retreats” myth is mostly post-war propaganda.
