You’re getting downvoted because, for all their faults, the SPD is not run by fascists, quasi-fascists or “morally conflicted fascist-adjacent”. Neither has this ever been the case, nor is it going to happen in the foreseeable future. You’re not even in the ballpark of correct. Best case scenario is that you like to use the word “fascist” inflationarily. But even that wouldn’t be much better, as it effectively downplays the threat of and the horrors committed by actual fascists.

If you’d referred to the SPD as a party run by something like a cumulation of unimaginative, spineless and corrupt conservatives larping as social democrats, there’d be some grounds for discussion. This, instead, just makes you look like a troll.

To be honest, I’m only replying because I do not want your comment to stand on its own.

Pff, ich bleibe dabei: dunkler Hintergrund ist was für Kellerkinder. Ist der Bildschirm zu hell, ist das Zimmer zu dunkel.

Bei Betrachtung der OS-Marktanteile über alle Plattformen (d.h. PCs bzw. Laptops, Smartphones und Tablets) fällt auf, dass in erster Linie der Anteil von Windows stark ab- während der von Android stark zugenommen hat. Sprich, immer weniger Windows-Nutzer haben einen Bedarf für herkömmliche Rechner und sind bereits mit Smartphone und ggf. Tablet bedient.

Linux hat zwar auch beim Gesamtmarktanteil ganz gut zugelegt (von 1,59% auf 2,33% in 12 Monaten), aber (auch relativ) weniger, als der reine Blick auf den Desktopmarkt vermuten ließe.

I can certainly give it a try. manucode beat me to it. Anyhow: The channel you’ve been watching is probably a/the tv channel for children (by Austrian public broadcast services, most likely). At night, when children are supposed to be sleeping, they don’t have any real programmes and instead loop a clip specifically made for this purpose starring that loaf of bread.

The bread itself is called “Bernd das Brot” (Bernd the bread) and was created by the german tv channel called kika (Kinder Kanal, literally children channel in English). I’m not sure in which show he first appeared in (there have been quite a few, plus some movies), but he’s been a recurring character for over 20 years now, afaik. Oh and Bernd is a typically depressed loaf of bread who would prefer to be left alone so he could stare at woodchip wallpaper all the time. Unfortunately for him, he is typically accompanied/bothered by at least two other characters – Briegel the Bush and Chili the sheep, a crazy inventor and an equally crazy stunt err sheep, respectively. Bernd tends to be the butt of more than a few jokes.

Can’t really be for the EU, either, as it includes Norway and excludes Germany. Not exactly what I’d call beautiful data.

Still, your original comment was a bit misleading then. Ending something that wasn’t paid for immediately upon cancellation is OK in my book. Not great, but not bad, either.

Is that even legal in the States? Or do you at least get a partial refund for the remainder of the month?

Derart verzweifelte Wahlwerbung sehe ich zum ersten Mal o.O

Das erinnert mich an eine Werbung, die irgendwann um 2008 rum, als die Wirtschaftskrise im Gange war, im Fernsehen kam. Statt die supertollen Produkte des Herstellers anzupreisen (irgendein Schmieröl, glaube ich), lautete der Kern der Nachricht “bitte, bitte, kauft unsere Produkte, wir gehen sonst pleite!”. Den Spot hab ich nur ein einziges Mal gesehen.

Manchmal frage ich mich, ob mir mein Gedächtnis einen Streich gespielt hat, oder es sie tatsächlich gab und es die Firma schlicht nicht mehr gibt.

Ich weiß nicht, ob die SPD dazu eine Urabstimmung durchführen wird oder muss, aber ich prophezeie bereits jetzt, dass es ein „ehrliches Ergebnis“ (O-Ton) sein wird.

Hauptsache, nix ändert sich.
