In a normal country, a doctor endorsing teen pregnancy would get their licence suspended.

The teeth match! Everything in the picture must be true! /s

Technical Museum Brno has some 2000s stuff on display... Portable CD player, compact digital camera and a desktop inkjet printer, the same model that's been our family's primary one until 2019 and we still use sometimes. Of course, it's just a minor part at the end of the consumer electronics section.

They also have a mini DOS SBC you can use (there is a C:\FEMBOYS and C:\UWU directory) and make extensive use of Raspberry Pis for web-based touchscreen infokiosks and emulation of Atari and C64 games.

Many streets are not like this, unfortunately. On some sidewalks it's impossible to pass a person in the other direction just so that cars can drive and park all the way to Prague Castle. At one spot, the sidewalk is completely blocked by a vertical "citylight" billboard, thankfully there's a dirt path around. And Magistrála (inner city highway) was the biggest planning failure, ruining valuable land around the main train station and dozens of streets. Also, there's at least two road-legal, almost stock Cybertrucks for some reason. In short, Prague is one of the most car-brained cities despite the very dense tram network. This is unlikely to change in the next 4 years, since the Minister of Transport and Minister of Environment is a Motorist party member now (one person because the party couldn't produce another that would pass a basic sanity check).

I prefer cables that can be bent

There are disability/neurodivergence pride flags too. Would you ditch the ADHD flag to stop "oh, I'm SO ADHD" people from using it?

This is giving some vibes...

Pár pařmenů: Společenstvo žlutého tentononcu s pěknou básničkou uvnitř (A Couple of Metalheads: Fellowship of the Yellow Thingamagic With a Nice Poem Inside) is a 2004 Pán prstenů: Společenstvo prstenu (Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring) parody from the Czech high schoolers' club Banda Trotlů. This re-dub took an entire school year to finish, has a legendary status and still circulates among young people in Czech Republic.

(yes, the original SD copy came on 2 CDs (more like 2 ISOs) because they didn't have a DVD burner)

Depends on the definition. Ignoring the terrain, each point gets slightly more illumination than 50% of the time because of the Sun's non-zero size.

Kanin (mega-rabbit) too.

By the way, Czech králík is also a diminutive: of král, meaning "king".

Are floating ice cubes interesting enough? Also, don't they get brain freeze?

Is it easy to transition where you live? Do you have people around who accept you?

I don't think German Stichwörter (compound words) count because it's just switching which is the adjective and noun part of the compound.

Eggcorns (Wikipedia / YouTube video by RobWords) are language mistakes that sometimes take over and change the spelling and perhaps even the meaning of a word. This is rare in German because there's fewer homophones but in this episode of Wort der Woche, DW explains how "munttot" became "mundtot". Available as audio or transcript.

 

Yup, it's real. How did it get into production with

  • a flattened back tire with central hub very off-center,
  • right pedal on the left side, and very far below the cyclist's leg,
  • chain routing defying common sense,
  • and a disjointed left glass?

At least the socks seem to be classic low-res stitch art likely by humans...

 

WebP does everything GIF did, just better. The only problem is adoption. Maybe a similar, single-syllable name could have helped.

  • Ends the pronunciation debate: hard G in the 1987 filetype, soft G in the 2010 one
  • Looping soundless video gets a name that's short and does not refer to a terribly inefficient format (that "gif" sharing sites often no longer use anyway), plus some wrong people have been using it already
  • Software peer-pressured into supporting it (nobody wants to hear "they don't support JIF" about their software)
 

They say lab is short for German Labor, which is short for Romanian laborator, which is short for Latin laboratorium.

...and paper that says "Enjoy the rust, swasticar" on the windshield

Seen in Prague-Karlín, about 30 m away from that other mildly vandalized vehicle. Looking up the licence plate, the owner's full name seems to be Igor Norton Tesla Slovák and it's the first Cybertruck in the country, so he must have spent lots of money importing it and modding it (and bribing officials?) to pass registration.

Yes, Prague is inexplicably car-brained for how dense the public transport network is.

...and paper that says "Enjoy the rust, swasticar" on the windshield

Seen in Prague-Karlín, about 30 m away from that other mildly vandalized vehicle.

Phil Mason, aka Thunderf00t, is a US expat at the Czech Academy of Sciences in Prague and most of his last 80 videos are about criticizing Musk. I wonder if he ever encounters a Cybertruck (there have been multiple for quite a while) and films it up close, it would help if he stopped reusing footage so much.

 

Prague 16, Radotín, is a former village at the southwestern edge of the city, mostly known for its commuter rail stop between Beroun and Praha-Smíchov.

This is a joke, the console is unrelated in all but name.

The slideshow is just the VÍTÁME VÁS / NA SHLEDANOU welcome/goodbye message (based on whether the panel is entry-/exit-facing, a URL, and wayfinding info such as "🠜 PŘEPÁŽKY 36, 38-44 / 🠝 RECEPCE, PŘEPÁŽKY 12, 13, 15-20, 28-29" . They absolutely could have used a way less powerful machine for this, or better utilized the screen estate (wayfinding on the welcome/URL screen as well? English?).

Does anyone know the software they're using? I recreated the icon:
