Lindner trying to keep the Schuldenbremse no matter what doesn’t help either. Spending money on fighting climate change now could mitigate some of the climate change damages in future, but I guess it’s more important to save every possible cent now… 🤷

Even if in the next elections (2029!) greens would surge like crazy and the far right crumble, we lose sooo much valuable time within these 5 years now. It really is disheartening :(

Not to mention they were kicked out of the Nazi group, because THEY WERE TOO EXTREME FOR THEM. Wake me up in 5 years when we can hopefully stop this…

Don’t forget to run some docker container on that VM, to encapsulate the workload, so it will be: SSH to VM -> open a shell into the container -> run the rest

Ich lese Kubernetes und bin glücklich 😊

But we can’t afford that. We somehow need to subsidize fossil energies after all, because of the economy!

Das Backend von feddit.de scheint zu funktionieren, nur das Web-Frontend ist nach wie vor down. Mit einer App oder einem alternativen Web-Frontend ist feddit.de seit einiger Zeit wieder funktionsfähig.

In anderen Worten: Benutze eine Lemmy-App und es läuft momentan normal.

Just relax and make some tea at 4:18 :) No coffee though!

Honestly I would probably just stop using YouTube altogether if I was forced to use it unmodified.

I never understood how a chatroom took off as a tool to document stuff. Who seriously thinks this is a good idea? 😵

My takeaway is more like: This one almost made it through and was caught by accident. How much more backdoors actually were not caught and made it through? I would bet some money on it being more than 0 :(

I guess it is impossible to say what would have happened if Google never used XMPP. To me it mostly looks like google joined XMPP and made it way bigger than it was before and eventually left it again, making it small again. But is it worse than before Google even joined?

Maybe, but can we say for sure?

Maybe the lesson is not “don’t let the big corporate players in”, but rather “make sure the development of the underlying protocol itself is done in an open way”. If Google/Meta adds proprietary extensions, just don’t add them to the main protocol. If they leave the protocol again or changed their implementation in a way that is largely incompatible with the open version, nothing is lost than what they brought in initially. Doesn’t that make sense?

I’m actually curious about “Embrace Extend Extinguish”: What can they do? They “extend” the ActivityPub protocol in a proprietary way, ok. Doesn’t mean any other instance has to use that, no? Ok, that would mean if an instance doesn’t follow that extension, it can’t interact optimally with Threads, but how does it matter? To me it seems all that can be lost by that is the content/user base that Threads brings into the Fediverse and then we are at the same point as we would be if we defederated immediately. Maybe I’m missing something here?

Berlin Budapest Wall when?

How is this even uplifting news? This sounds dystopian like crazy…

But it couldn’t be easier to just set up a second remote, that isn’t GitHub with just vanilla Git, if you don’t trust Microsoft (Or even fully switching to a different remote). Why is there a need for something else in addition?

Ab und zu dürfte der Olaf echt gerne mal auf den Tisch hauen…

I had a printer from HP but rarely had to print anything. It happened way too often, that I had to buy a new cartridge, because the old one dried up. Soo annoying… Now I have a laser printer from brother and it’s much better! No more drying up! I guess this is more about technology than it is brand, but it somehow was fitting here😄

Can’t wait for a multi-tiered EU. I see that as the only feasible option to have progress on so many issues. Any useful reform of the current EU will just be blocked by that guy and it’s not like we can expect someone else in charge of Hungary anytime soon…

Ich checke vor allem nicht warum das auf einmal so schnell umschlägt?

Weil die Ampel immer wieder Probleme hat? Jo, find ich auch Mist, aber ich sag dann trotzdem nicht “jo, muss ich halt Nazis wählen 🤷‍♂️”
