Politicians working for their own profit instead for the well-being of the people who elected them? Color me shocked!

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… 🤷

Smh my head

Have some browser extension play the video in the background with ads and notify me once it’s done. In the meantime show some message like “bringing out the trash”. Can do better things with my time than watching ads Or something to that effect… 🤷

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…

The scary thing is, I could imagine someone writing this text, but unironic…

I’ll develop my own browser before using an ad-infested internet. Luckily I don’t have to do that, because there are alternatives and also because it would be a damn time consuming project to put it mildly 😅

Even if they would get all of Ukraine, I would expect quite a bit of underground resistance that would make holding on to Ukraine expensive.

They might be academics, but definitely not scientists

It’s hard to give tips without knowing your situation better, but here are a few general ones that probably already set you apart from the vast majority of other small companies:

• Keep your stuff updated, especially when there are security fixes available
• don’t take convenience shortcuts that compromise on security (e.g. relying on “security through obscurity”)
• block incoming traffic by default (you only need some people from your country to access the network? Maybe even block ip ranges from the other side of the world)
• log access to your network and also analyse the logs often (probably with the help of some software)

I’m just some Software Engineer with a few years of experience, not some security expert though😅

Mostly the same. I tried ChatGPT a few times to get it to generate some code, but mostly it produced code that didn’t even compile and when I asked it to fix it, it created code that didn’t compile in a different way. I enjoy writing code on my own a lot more than having to review some pre-generated code.

Though I use it as a glorified Google sometimes and that is not even so bad.

My feeling is the US feels they are too committed now to stop and just hope that Israel will stop by itself soon.

I’m not saying I like it, but it definitely feels like that…

And that one ad probably uses more memory than Voyager has in total 😅

Well, it means you are incentivized to scroll through the app more, meaning you see more ads as well. 110% sure it pays off for them

Just give me a Linux client for proton drive please. I’m tired of manually uploading/downloading files 😐

I guess the idea is (make of that what you want):

• Usenet is not illegal by itself (but well, same goes for torrenting)
• As long as law enforcement doesn’t get its hands on the server it can’t tell what you download, as long as you use TLS (no VPN required, but doesn’t hurt either)
• But even if: Usenet providers (hopefully) don’t keep logs of what you downloaded, so for all we know you just paid the provider to download actual news/Linux ISOs?
• But even if they do: You are not uploading anything -> you are probably less interesting to law enforcement and they might just ignore you (especially if you use some payment method that might require going through some extra steps to link it to you as a person)

I use ChatGPT sometimes to give me a pointer in what directions I could go/research more for a given problem. But if I ever take the code provided by it, I need to review it line by line and half the time it doesn’t even compile anyway. At this point it’s just a helper to suggest to me what to google for and then I do the rest😅

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.
