That’s not been my experience at all (also in Germany). Signal is super popular, especially with younger people (under 40). I don’t have a Whatsapp account and it’s super rare for it to be an issue.

tbf, if you’re not hostile to the US at this point, I’d seriously question your sanity. You don’t need to be a tankie for that.

Als jemand der an einer Uni arbeitet: Davon würde ich nicht ausgehen.

I can’t just finish work an hour early though. I’m looking forward to summer time because it means an extra hour of daylight after work. I don’t want to give that up.

I propose Saxony /s

DB uses this novel trick to avoid delays: they simply don’t count trains that don’t run at all as delayed. And then they also sometimes cancel trains for being delayed. They simply turn the train around before reaching it’s final stop so at least it’s somewhat on time running the other way.

It’s funny (and accurate) that they keep getting fucked over by Deutsche Bahn.

Nice, straight up antisemitism.

Fuck I am naively hoping elections in Germany […] go well…

For shooters, especially competitive ones, as high as possible up to my monitor’s refresh rate (165Hz). Everything else 60 FPS is fine. Even 30 FPS can be fine, especially if I’m playing something on Switch.

I might be wrong, but I think you still can’t use a ‘:’ in a filename in macOS. If I recall correctly it will let you do it and show it in Finder, but actually replace it with a ‘-’.

I don’t think only gender neutral bathrooms is the way to go. There should be an all gender bathroom and a woman’s bathroom. Unfortunately we live in a world where women may still feel understandably uncomfortable with men in the bathroom with them.

Note: To be clear I’m not saying the women’s bathroom should be for cis women only, it should only exclude men.

I’m fully bilingual (learned both languages at the same time) and that is not my experience at all. For me it is 100% subconscious. I just automatically speak the appropriate language for the situation I’m in without thinking about it.

In fact if I try to consciously speak the “wrong” language for the situation I’m in it feels very weird and it takes a lot of effort to not mix up the pronunciation.

Dreaming/inner thoughts work the same way. The language is always automatic based on context.

Weren’t Sirius Cybernetics Corporation also the first against the wall when the revolution came?

Ich war nicht überrascht, dass Honey scheiße ist, aber die Art und die Dreistigkeit hat mich schon ein wenig überrascht.

Ich war ehrlich gesagt davon ausgegangen, dass die Erweiterung einfach Daten über das Kaufverhalten der Nutzer:innen sammelt und sich finanziert in dem diese weiterverkauft werden. Was für mich Grund genug war Honey nicht zu benutzen, aber sowas ist ja heutzutage leider normal.

8h train journey is really nbd. Especially if it’s a direct connection. On the ICE you will also get better food than on the flight, you get to stretch your legs and can bring way more luggage without paying an arm and a leg.

I’d pick an 8h train over a 4h flight for Berlin -> Paris in a heartbeat. Even if the flight would end up being slightly quicker including travel to and time spent at the airports (which it might not be). With the train you can at least sit down with your laptop or whatever and just chill the whole time. When you’re flying you’re spending a lot of time waiting in queues, walking around the airport and changing modes of transport.

It seems like it’s still possible to disable Gatekeeper on macOS 15: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/255759797

I haven’t tried it though. It’s so rare that I want to run something unsigned, I prefer leaving it enabled and then allowing whatever it is I want to run.
