Wo ist der TÜV wenn man ihn braucht

I know it’s not feasible, but that is the argument that second amendment proponents make all the time. I would have expected to see them try, at least

If you find an encrypted drive, it’s extremely unlikely you can recover anything from it. If there is no LUKS header, it’s pretty much impossible.

Aren’t there a lot more civilian gun owners than law enforcement? I thought that was the idea behind the second amendment

Let me know if you find out lol

Wie wähle ich mehr als einmal hoch?

Kann man die Formel dafür irgendwo einsehen?

Be gay, do crime?

Typischerweise ist doch nicht das herunter-, sondern das hochladen das Problem

Trotzdem seltsam, dass es das nicht gibt. Der Staat bzw. die Länder müssen die Feiertage doch irgendwie offiziell bekanntmachen. Heutzutage ist ein abonnierbarer Kalender doch die offensichtliche Lösung dafür.

Yes, but wouldn’t the person on the left be more likely to push than the one on the right, as they could save more lives by sacrificing one?

I played the first Stalker game for the first time recently, and if you save while undetected, then get detected and load your save, you’ll still be detected. Almost drove me mad.

It’s definitely possible to make windows suck less. But no matter how proficient you are with windows, I don’t think it is possible to recreate the look-and-feel of Linux. Fundamentally, it is just not a modular system where you can switch out e.g. the bootloader, filesystems or the desktop environment. And even if you tried to, there is no source code, no mailing list, no comprehensive wiki, no Github issues where people already figured out the exact problem you’re facing, and it feels like the OS is fighting you every step of the way.

So what I’m saying is this: If you have very low knowledge about computers, windows kind-of works, but many things feel out of your control and you learn to hate your computer rather than like it (why does it want me to create an account, why does it update without me telling it to, why is all this crap preinstalled etc.). And even if you were to learn more about the inner workings of windows, it’s way less accessible due to its closed source and you still don’t get the same customizability that Linux would give you.

Ein weiterer Fall von “Politik versteht Technik nicht”. Wofür braucht man eine App aus einem geschlossenen Store, wenn man auch so Wireguard-Credentials eingeben kann?

I was so shocked when I learned that in the same country that gives guns to children because muH FrEedOmS, you cannot let your lawn grow out on your own property because some Karen down the road doesn’t like the way it looks.

Me when I load some big matrices

This thing sounds like it would eat more power within a month than its hardware is worth. This is fine for a proof of concept, but not much more.

Well, anything is easy if you stay within the boundaries of the OS as it is shipped. For arch, that means no desktop environment at all, just the TTY – which is super easy to use if that happens to be exactly your use case. IMO a reasonable test is not whether is it easy to use if you stay within the boundaries (as that is true for everything), but whether those boundaries are reasonable.

I completely agree that ripping out system components does not have to be easy. But not wanting Cortana, OneDrive, Edge or other microsoft programs to be preinstalled, hard to remove, and constantly nagging you to use them over other programs is not an unreasonable request. Last time I installed Windows for a friend, you needed a workaround to be able to use the computer without a user account tied to some microsoft account. And that triggered the same response in me as in the meme – this is not some cloud service where I make an account and they provide the hardware. I want to use the computer that is sitting in front of me, in my house. Why should I need a microsoft account for that?

That’s not how probabilities work. The market share in the US is P(has iPhone | resident of US), but we’re looking for P(resident of US | has iPhone), which according to Bayes’ law is equal to the market share in the US (see above) times P(resident of US) [aka US pop. / world pop.] divided by P(has iPhone) [aka global market share]. So essentially, while the market share in the US may be twice as high as the global average, the US has fewer than half of all people in the world - making it more likely that the person is not from the US than that they are.
