Ich liebe es, wie immer noch so getan wird, als hätte die Regulierung was mit Kinderschutz zu tun, obwohl tatsächliche Kinderschützer darauf hinweisen dass es nicht hilft und stattdessen die Privatsphäre und Entwicklung von Kindern und Jugendlichen stark einschränkt....

That's correct, but I'm not sure what you understand those terms to mean, because neither really supports taking all ownership away from people. I'm just gonna leave this blorb here, because I feel like this is where it fits best.

Communism in the style of Marx and Engels means that the workers own the means of production. They would have been completely in favor of a person owning their own farm (or jointly owning it if multiple people worked it). They didn't really envision much of a state to interfere, much less own property.

That the Soviet Union (and later the PRC, fuck them btw) claimed to be building the worker's paradise under communism was mostly propaganda after Lenin died. There hasn't been any state that has implemented actual communism as established by theory.

Socialism (as I understand it, but I'm not well-read on it) means the state has social support networks, but largely works under capitalist rules, with bans of exploitative practices. There are some countries trying to implement a light version of this across Europe, to varying success (mostly failing where capitalism is left unchecked).

The issue is that the US started propagandizing like mad during the cold war, and "communism" was just catchier to say than "supportive of a country that is really just a state-owned monopoly". Soon everything that was critical of capitalism also became "communism", which eventually turned into a label for everything McCarthy labelled "un-american". This is also the time they started equating the terms communism and socialism. A significant portion of the US population hasn't moved past that yet, because it fits well into the propaganda of the US being the best country in the world, the American Dream, all that bs. The boogeyman of "the state will take away the stuff you own" turned out pretty effective in a very materialistic society. Although I'm very glad to see more and more USAians get properly educated on the matter and standing up for their rights rather than letting themselves be exploited.

The brackets example is the one I use to drill into people's heads that it has nothing to do with visual symmetry

Es ist ein sehr faszinierendes Phänomen wie viele Leute sich für das Zielpublikum der FDP halten, obwohl sie nichtmal ein Promille von dem verdienen, was das eigentliche Zielpublikum verdient.

Da würde mich dann schon interessieren wen sie da befragt haben. Oder ob sie einfach ne Online-Umfrage gemacht und das Ergebnis unkritisch übernommen haben. Die Zahlen kann ich mir nicht vorstellen, auch wenn wir grade echt ein Problem damit haben wie viele Leute die AfD akzeptieren.

Es ging um eine Aktion die Tage vorher angekündigt war. Das Gericht hat im Prinzip gesagt "die Aktion war angekündigt, ihr hättet sie umgehen können, das ist keine Nötigung."

Linux gaming is pretty good these days. Basically the only major games you can't play are the ones running super intrusive anticheats.

Speaking as GenZ (or Millennial, depends who you ask for the definition): fuuuuck that.

Speaking to the article specifically: I don't trust a surveillance vendor to work honestly when surveying the acceptance of their surveillance tool. The article also fails to mention (if it does, it's so brief I missed it) that the pressure some parents put on their kids to install and allow these kinds of spyware is immense. The kid having it on does not equate to the kid choosing to have it on.

Honestly, if it weren't for the itch and the (admittedly somewhat low) chance for transmitting diseases, I wouldn't mind them.

eIDAS, Chatkontrolle, was die sich wohl als nächstes einfallen lassen...

Ich denke, solange du klar machst ab wann du suchst, kannst du das schon machen.

Je nach Firma kann es aber halt sein, dass die sich melden mit "Melde dich bitte Anfang des neuen Jahres wieder"

Who uses FAT32 in 2023?

Any EFI partition?

Germany is when your ISP sells you1GBit/s for 100€ and then your house has DSL cables inside so you can effectively only use 300MBit/s of it.

If we're happy with non-godly mythological figures, definitely Sisyphus though.

Most Americans think that "liberal" is someone on the left, while most European nations (as well as what little political theory I had) place them somewhere in the center, usually fiscally progressive but socially conservative.

What in the late 90s/early 2000s Internet is this

Ja, so wie sie ausgeliefert wird ist sie ziemlich gut. Sie hat ein paar nervige Interaktionen mit ICMP (lässt z.B. Ping-Pakete einfach fallen), aber sonst hat sie gute Standardeinstellungen.

Wenn man natürlich rumspielt oder bspw. ein Virenschutzprogramm installiert das sie ausschaltet (weil es eine eigene nutzt) kann man das so nicht mehr sagen.

Aber für den 0815 Windows-Nutzer ist meine Empfehlung Windows Defender und Windows Firewall. So gut wie alle Alternativen solange man vernünftig mit seinem Computer umgeht und nicht einfach jeden Mist installiert, und dann gibt man nicht unnötig vielen Programmen hochprivilegierten Zugriff aufs System.

Ist der Ursprungspfostierer Weichware-Entwickler oder Tester?

Generally speaking, if you forgot you have the account while actively trying to think about it, you likely won't miss it.

If you're really worried about losing access to somewhere important, I would recommend migrating them one by one. Once you migrate one account to your new mail, move all the mails from that service to another folder. If you have e-mails from services you deem not important enough to migrate, just move them to another folder (or delete them).

Proceed until there are no more e-mails in your original inbox.
