#MakersHour Q4: Do you read and write answers for #MakersHour questions in advance, or wait until the hour starts, and read and answer on the fly? How does this affect your ability to interact with others and react to their answers?
I try to pre-schedule my answers on Tusky, because normally I'm so tired at night I couldn't do both, keep up with posting answers and possibly interacting. If I pre-schedule I might have some energy left to interact with folks.

A4: Sort a combination of the two, depending on how busy my day is. I usually open a new tab with just the week's questions up at some point on Thursday morning, and start writing an answer to Q1. I'll also skim the rest of the Qs and begin to formulate answers in my head. Then when the hour kicks off, early afternoon for me, I keep the questions tab open and write answers as we go. I don't think it hampers my ability to interact with the other participants, but I might be a little late to certain conversations.
DEDA – tracking Dots Extraction, Decoding and Anonymisation toolkit
Document Colour Tracking Dots, or yellow dots, are small systematic dots which encode information about the printer and/or the printout itself. This process is integrated in almost every commercial colour laser printer. This means that almost every printout contains coded information about the source device, such as the serial number.On the one hand, this tool gives the possibility to read out and decode these forensic features and on the other hand, it allows anonymisation to prevent arbitrary tracking.

The image features a poster with a prominent figure in a blue suit and red tie, set against a dark background with blurred lights. The figure is positioned at the top of the poster, with a serious expression. Below the figure, there is a large red banner with white text that reads "MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN." The text is bold and capitalized, emphasizing the message. The overall color scheme of the poster is red, white, and blue, which are the colors of the American flag. The poster appears to be a political campaign sign, likely associated with a specific political movement or campaign.

The image features a poster with a black and white photograph of a man wearing a suit and tie. His face is artistically altered to resemble a skull with intricate patterns, particularly around the eyes, which are large and hollow. The text "OB EYE" is prominently displayed above the man's head, with the letters "O" and "E" partially obscuring his face. Below the image, the text "MAKE BILLIONAIRES EVEN RICHER" is written in bold, black capital letters on a reflective surface. The overall tone of the poster is satirical, with the skull imagery suggesting a critical commentary on wealth and power.

The image features a poster with a central figure, a man with light-colored hair, wearing a suit and red tie. The man's face is partially altered with a skeletal design on the left side, including a star in the eye socket. The background is dark with indistinct text. The poster includes the text "MAKE BILVERICA GREAT AGAIN" in bold, white letters on a red and gray gradient background. The text is a play on the phrase "Make America Great Again," suggesting a local adaptation.

spec fiction review
“The Historian” by Elizabeth Kostova
(Fewest votes) This book was HUGE, then disappeared (it kinda dragged at times). A tale of research into Dracula that gets too close to the truth. I loved the idea of detective-like researchers who are family, & Europe really comes alive. It’s subtly creepy.
“None of the Above” by Lots Below
Admittedly, this book was a whole lot of nothing.

"Israel's democracy" is a hoax. An apartheid state is by definition not a real democracy. It's a system where who gets to vote is carefully selected so that the status quo isn't affected.

in reply to Blahster • • •@Blahster Ja genau! Nur SO können wir die deutsche Autoindustrie retten!
In Wahrheit ist es etwas komplizierter. Deutschland hat halt viele Patente auf Verbrenner aber kaum was bei Elektromobilität. Der Fehler wurde schon vor 20 Jahren gemacht und jetzt versucht man halt seine Auswirkungen zu bekämpfen, indem man ihn weiterhin nicht einsieht und lieber immer wieder das Tempo in die falsche Richtung erhöht.

Nur so lange nicht jemand die Überzeugung einbringt die Erde sei eine Scheibe und ein anderer fordert, man müsse auch andere Meinungen als immer nur die eigenen respektieren; weil bei Meinungen gebe es kein kategorisches "Richtig oder Falsch", auch für den Weg und wo auf der Karte man sich befindet.
Spätestens da ist der letzte Punkt gekommen die Gruppe zu verlassen (eigentlich ein NO GO) und wieder auf den richtigen, ursprünglich geplanten Weg zurückzukehren.
