Why would you study anything with literature if you had never read a book before? This sound like a colossal waste of time and money. My theory is that if you were good at anything or had an interest in a particular topic, you would study something else like engineering, medicine, or law (I exclude the case that you may be genuinely interested in literature). Thus, many of those who study literature have no idea what they should study else and probably think that they can always get through a course which is about book. Why? Probably rich family pressured them into studying instead of posting stuff on Instagram or TikTok.

Aber diesmal ist es in Farbe!!1!

If you do not trust Tailscale as a company, here is an open source re-implementation of the server called headscale. Some/all clients are open source as well. So, you can review all components yourself or pay for a professional third-party review. Otherwise, if you take a binary blob from any origin, including Tailscale, and have it run with privileges on your server, there are few limits on what this blob can do. Yes, backdoors are technically possible, but probably bad for Tailscale’s business if that ever came to light.

Det finns Blocket och Tradera för att försälja saker. Inget garanti att du hitta köpare. Om du har större mängder som du behöver bli av med på kort varsel kolla på lokala företag som ta hand om dödsbo, dvs som köper allt på en gång och som på sin tur säljer enskilda delar. Priset du får kan dock vara ganska lågt.

Please submit a second copy of that letter, but replace Windows with Android, PC with Mobile, Microsoft with Google, and Edge with Chrome.

My setup is smaller, but when my venerable old router died about a year ago, I acquired an Asus TUF-AX3000_V2 where I installed FreshTomato. One can login via SSH and dump all settings for backup. Likewise, individual or all settings can be done on the command line instead of the GUI. I have a script on my computer that reads CSV files with MAC addresses and more to apply changes in an automated way.

Google is outsourcing their job to you, because you doing it for free is even cheaper than paying some poor fellow in India a dollar a day.

Der Vorfall bestätigt wieder die Vorurteile, die man über die FDP hat:

Aus der Kommission heißt es, […] es sei vielmehr ein erwartbares Manöver der FDP, sich vor den Landtagswahlen in Sachsen, Brandenburg und Thüringen als Vertreter der Dieselfahrer zu positionieren und Vorurteile gegen die EU zu befördern.

Und am Ende des Artikels:

Betroffen sind dann nicht Millionen Autofahrer, sondern die Autokonzerne, die womöglich viele Millionen Euro zahlen müssten. Doch das würde diejenigen treffen, die die Verursacher des Dieselskandals sind, nämlich die Hersteller.

Also kurz vor Wahlen spielt man sich zum Retter der Dieselfahrer auf (die gar nicht bedroht sind), mit der eigentlichen Absicht, die reichen Autokonzerne zu schützen, die bei Abgastests in der Vergangenheit belogen und betrogen haben. Nebenher zerstört man als Kollateralschaden das Vertrauen in die EU, was ja letztendlich Wasser auf die Mühlen rechter Parteien ist. Wer wählt denn eigenlich noch FDP?

Did you just summarized the first episode of Gilmore Girl? 😉

I would strongly guess the gap between 1941 to 1951 and (to a lesser extend to 1961) is due to the introduction of antibiotics.

KDE Connect has been mentioned before. You can supplement this and other tools by using a VPN so that both endpoints can see each other even if the underlying network does not allow this. My preferred solutions are Tailscale (managed, cloud-based) or Headscale (for self-hosting).

Yes, XMPP with proper TLS on the server side and Conversations or one of its forks (preferably fetched from F-Droid) using OMEMO encryption should be good enough. If you are brave or paranoid, give Tox a try: https://tox.chat/

Maybe the first question is what your budget is, both regarding money and time. For example, you could buy a pre-configured NAS from Synology or QNAP, which requires less technical skills but more money, or a home-made solution reusing used components (but fresh disks for reliability). Depending on your electricity costs, you may want to choose a low-power solution or something which you power off when not used. For storage, maybe a three-disk RAID5 is a good compromise. For backups, plain S3 cloud storage encrypted via restic is a good idea.

Those of us who remember ‘Alf’ may wonder if the name is due to taste as well.

Well, you have Finland in the north-east, Ireland in the north-west, and every land border faces a Euro-zone country. Few other countries can claim the latter.

If at all, you want to use Gentoo’s ebuild system, which can be seen as some kind of superset of PKGBUILDs. I guess one could write a Python script that “dumbs down” ebuild scripts to PKGBUILDs for simple packages (excluding complex stuff like kernel, KDE, …). The main challenge, as pointed to before, would be maintaining a table mapping package names between distributions in order to get the dependencies right.

Those would be harvested to train LLMs even without asking first. 😐

What comes to mind:

• Collect trash in nature
• Demonstrate in front of parliaments if politicians are about to make stupid laws
• Demonstrate outside of billionaires’ properties demand that they pay their fair share to society

Yes, one of the factors that contributed to the demise of Windows Mobile was the lack of backwards-compatibility for apps between 7, 8, an 10.
