stylistically, some of them are really pretty, some of them are really ugly.

as others have said, i think people are a bad idea, unless they have all kinds of local or special editions like with coins.

i think birds are kinda cool. not sure why only birds as animals, and not other animals too. i would have also liked trees or other plants, or even mushrooms. but oh well.

i don't like having people on bank notes because it is really hard to pick which ones are inportant, and you can't choose enough of them, many people will get left out. also, i don't like the idea of worshipping people.

well, in my opinion it is a bit of a paradox. i think you are partially correct.

your door analogy may be right from the perspective of the platform on which the cube is. however, one flaw is that the whole space is moving, not just the door. as soon as the cube enters that door, it will be inside that space, and if you consider the cube part of it, moving that space "downward", then due the cube being held by the platform, you could consider the cube moving "upward" in the space behind the orange portal. if you consider preserving momentum there, then as soon as the apparatus stops moving, the cube should not stop its momentum and move further up in the space.

or look at it like this: if you are behind the orange portal, meaning you are looking at the blue portal, you will see a cube moving towards you. then as soon as the platform hits the wall of the orange portal, the preserved momentum should make the cube "fly".

the change of perspective leads to two different conclusions, therefore i think it is a paradox.

the problem sort of is that there are two "spacetimes" that are kind of being changed. one could interpret it as both of these effects "pulling" against each other since when the cube has partially passed the portal, one part of the cube is "in one of the spacetimes", ant the other part in the other. ultimately though, the cube then would actually fly because in the limit (infinitesinally close to when the platform hits the portal wall) the cube is completely on the other side of the portal, so from the view of that spacetime, the cube does get pushed and should fly.

i don't even remember if it is possible in the video game for walls with portals that move. a video game would probablt have some kind of "center of mass", like a single vector of coordinates where describing the position of the object. there is no notion of "partially" being somewhere (except for collision boxes, but i don't mean that). so also from that view the box would fly. however, in most video games (with or without portals), if a platform moves up and suddenly stops, the object won't travel further in that direction anyway, especially not ulwards (even sideways usually not).

listen to the pete rock version of it. apparently (though not offivially confirmed), it's the original version.

wenn ich das richtig verstehe wird signal da nie mit machen, und stattdessen sich aus dem europäischen markt raus ziehen. das heißt dann, man muss signal über (relativ einfache) umwege installieren und einrichten.

sehr schlechter titel

mega geil! wenn wir erfolgreich sibd können wir ein kleines open ground logo vielleicht auch daneben hinkriegen haha

paywall

vom klassichen memformat her nicht, aber ich hatte mir das gleiche gedacht in bezug auf wie die leute drauf sind.

Germany's

Not accurate. It is perhaps a German project, but it is not from the German government or anythibg similar with pulic money.

They are actuually consider themselves international ("Internationale Computerspielesammlung"), allthough depending on the interpretation, it refers to the games being international. They are just a project that happen to be in Germany via a classic eingetragener Verein (e.V.).

But at least the USK and a university are involved, which makes it a bit public.

surprised pikachu face

ich finde es überhault nicht quatsch. be fÿnf euro münze wäre richtig geil. auch für automaten. und für magie mit münzen. die 2 euro münzen sind viel zu klein.

ich will 10 euro münzen! die gibt es tatsächlich schon, aber nur als sonderedition. frag mich, wo man damit bezahlen kann. aber ich will dass es die überall gibt.

mehr münzen! mehr bargeld!

wtf is this? a twitter post? i can't even see part 2 without logging in.

apparently the guy writing it is also not really well knowledged according the the hackernews comments.

what i've also learned from the hb commenrs is that the paper referenced (btw not to be found in thr twitter post) is not peer reviewed, it's just published on zonedo by a person who is apparently suspicious anyway in terms of quality of content.
