Dies. Hab einen Bekannten gefragt, ob ihm das Kantinen-Curry nicht viel zu mild ist, er meinte er mag es gar nicht so scharf und meine Welt zerbrach.

I will make my own Brazil, with hate speech and rockets 😢

Because they worry about any other weapon? Or the extremely rare case that someone actually has a highly dangerous fire arm? My point is that they can have much less drastic standard procedures (and equipment), because the standard scenario of operation is significantly less threatening.

There are special forces that get involved with the real shit. But the bar for real shit here is someone has any gun.

He probably wasn’t arrested. It sounds like the police handcuffed him while checking whether he was indeed alone and then asked about what he was doing at his computer. After he explained, they asked him to turn off the stream, at which point I would assume he was freed again.

I assume they went on to explain the situation and then questioned him. If there is no evidence of any crime, they will just take his personals so they can contact him on any development. He is the victim of a crime after all.

Isn’t it amazing how you can “SWAT” (from the looks of it that weren’t special forces btw.) someone by knocking on the door, instead of blasting through it and charging in, ready to shoot anything that moves?

That’s something you can do if you don’t have to be afraid of shotguns and full-auto rifles when going into random people’s houses.

Didn’t they perform 3 test flights this year alone? (Under Biden?)

Ich mag wie die Ziele ihrer Spinnereien sie inzwischen einfach komplett ignorieren. Aber was will man auch machen, wenn dein Gegenüber so sexistisch ist, dass sich alles auf “du bist männlich und anderer Meinung, ergo der Feind” reduziert.

There is hard evidence these checks prevent crime (i.e. smuggling and human trafficking), as well as evasion of judicial measures. So, since these checks will not just go away in the foreseeable future, he needs to provide a better alternative.

Edit: I don’t really get Denmark and Benelux tho. I doubt there is that much going on via these borders, but maybe I’m mistaken? I can see smuggling over their ports could be a problem, but that could be resolved by tightening security there instead of at the borders.

Casual reminder that Politico is owned by Spring SE, which makes it inherently unreliable since it’s held and led by (very) few ultra rich people.

We have not failed to prevent climate change. We have failed to prevent some climate change. How much more we get depends directly on what we do about it now. And now the best you can do is keeping that in mind when going to vote and spending money.

As much as I would like to hate it, the numbers prove them right. Not only do they catch human trafficers, but also loads of convicts trying to cross the borders as well as smugglers. Germany lies very central in Europe. Turns out a lot is going through here.

Hardly helps with the real problems like proper integration, fighting the causes of emigration or extremists of all kinds operating in Germany, but it’s better than nothing.

I used to always have a ChatGPT tab pinned, so I wouldn’t mind. That said, the integration is just plain terrible. To be more precise, the whole experience with the sidebar is terrible. Why can I only have one and not even choose the default one? I need two clicks to get to the assistant, which is one more than just pinning a tab…

In Brave, the integration is so much better. They have a dedicated button (that you can also disable iirc), that opens a sidebar with only the chatbot. Moreover, you can choose from a bunch of models or link your own. You are not constantly at risk of accidentally sending something to it when selecting text, because neither is “AI” the top option in context menus, nor is one opening automatically. AI doesn’t appear in search. And it can even do more (e.g. “summarize this entire page”), while there is also no need to log in.

In short: This seems not thought through at all. And if it was, maybe the reactions would be less negative.

tldr: Linux can have driver issues and programs or updates might not work as expected. So anything you can expect from any major OS.

Song to that picture (it’s fucking awesome btw.): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5rjzuejoHKQ

(This is also used for Plasma’s performance profiles, not just GNOME’s)

Eh, in terms of UI and shortcuts, Plasma is very close. If you sit a Windows poweruser in front of Plasma, I’m quite confident they will feel right at home.

That’s actually how I got introduced to Linux. Then I discovered the Settings app. Fast forward: EndeavourOS btw.

Da trifft eher Populismus auf Populismus. Die CDU weiß schon, dass weder Grüne noch SPD viel Bock haben die nächste Regierung mit ihnen zu bilden, aber sie werden alles daran setzen, das eines von beidem passiert. Egal was sie jetzt dazu sagen. Zumindest sofern die FDP nicht genug Stimmen sammelt.

Ya know, Signal has been audited multiple times. It’s OSS. IT sec elite has looked at it and says it’s sound. If anything is plausible, it would be your device spying on you rather than Signal.

What’s weird tho is how people think this has anything do with messaging or data privacy. This is about Telegram being used as a public platform. They can’t force Durov to decrypt anything, nor do they need to, because they already know your groups…

There’s a solution for that tho: Tags. If you have sane (default) tags, you type ‘terminal’ and konsole pops up. And I feel like KDE mostly has that.

You should almost always use amd_pstate=guided/active on anything newer than Zen 2, although Arch Wiki says active is the default since kernel 6.5. Even if it doesn’t seem to fix the problem, it’s the preferred way to run those CPUs (if it works). guided + conservative scaling governor might help. Maybe it’s just a reporting bug tho, wouldn’t be a first for AMD.
