    Stimmt, hab ich ganz vergessen.

    Das heißt aber, die Person hat auch 100 UFO-Dokus gesehen, die kamen ja genauso oft. Manchmal mit Bonus Hitler-Überlappungen.

  • 7 years ago there were no billionaires worth more than $100 billion - today there are 18!

    It's not describing the noun, it's part of the noun.

    Quick analogy in German:

    space billionaire = Weltraummilliärdär

    spacefaring billionaire = weltraumreisender Milliärdär

    In German, adjective + noun cannot be written together to form a new noun. To form one, only noun + noun can be used. And English is close enough to Germanic languages for that rule to remain the same, I think.

  • German-speakers of Lemmy, does 'Amerika' normally mean 'the Americas' or 'the USA'?

    But Chemie comes from Chemnitz (obviously) so it must be pronounced with K

    Don't know where China comes from, maybe from Chinese which is obviously pronounced with K.

    Suppose the man is blind then. He has the ability to jump but is unaware of the trolley hurliing towards the people on the track. While he has the ability to act his only "crime" is being unaware. Isn't this equivalent to the original trolley problem?

    [I]t may rather be supposed that he is the driver of a runaway tram, which he can only steer from one narrow track on to another; five men are working on one track and one man on the other.

    In this case, all six men are unaware of the runaway trolley heading towards them, believing themselves to be safe. The one working on his own track has not made up his mind yet as to whether he would want himself to be sacrificed. You would impose your own will onto him, wouldn't you?

    I don't have any solution for variations of the trolley problem that satisfy me. I would likely act based upon what I felt was right at the time without considering (all) the implications. Without the threat of running out of time however, I believe it's much more difficult to decide how to act.

    But would you push the fat man over the railing?

    As before, a trolley is hurtling down a track towards five people. You are on a bridge under which it will pass, and you can stop it by putting something very heavy in front of it. As it happens, there is a fat man next to you – your only way to stop the trolley is to push him over the bridge and onto the track, killing him to save five. Should you proceed?
