"Nations" is a made-up concept. Drawing borders takes a guy, literally (it's always a guy), with a pencil and a piece of paper. Don't take my word for it; read "A History of the World in 47 Borders" by Jonn Elledge (it's also a fun book, wittily written!)

This is the only good and fair use of AI, helping me design and select the components of my new custom bike (code name CUTIBUL). Everything else is just noise.

There is a plan of a direct train from Berlin to Naples. Putting together German railways and Italian ones. What could go wrong? You'll start in Berlin and after 6 weeks you'll find yourself in Rostock

The new fountain in the Sony Center in Berlin. It took maybe 3 years to build. Inside the enclosed square is a new "PIZZA PASTA" restaurant. Cheap, sad, useless.

East Germany had the perfect solution for that. If you wanted a car, you could only buy a state-provided, beautiful TRABANT. Problem solved.

New keyboard! She's the Royal Kludge (RK) 80 (low profile, red switches). It's incredibly sturdy and robust (900g!). Types like butter. The overall build is top🔝 This is my 3rd low-pro and I think I have finally found The One. Will replace my aged Keychron K8 in the office #geek #productivity #tech

We really need to give even more money to OpenAI, and I would say we start with some TRILLION, since apparently even running the chatgpt website is too hard right now. #openai #enshittificationofeverythingreally

In June 1999, we created Exc3ss, the Extensible Car Mp3 Sound System in my garage. We put a PC inside a Fiat 500, a CD-ROM reader, an MS-DOS mp3 player, and a full-size keyboard to control it. We then drove 350km to Milan to one of the first Hackmeeting. Pretty cool stuff :) #hacking #fiat500

At this point I think the donald could start eyeing Germany too. It's an easy buy, starting with giving people the electricity to run the country. We are so screwed. Send help.
