While what you say is generally true, in Germany there was genuine left-wing terrorism and there was a dictatorship that colored itself red until recently in former Eastern Germany. I don't think it affects nearly everyone who is / pretends to be afraid of leftwing parties, but there definitely is some generational trauma playing into this.

Given even parts of the CDU have cooperated with the left I think this bias is slowly fading, but still present. As for the police, I'm kinda torn on the matter. They are getting political pressure to deliver 'balanced' results and probably have their own biases, but it's not like they don't take care of far-right nutjobs or that they let it slide when you have illegal weapons.

This is actually something I find really nice about Lemmy. No matter what crazy takes get thrown around, you rarely see blunt personal attacks or threats of voilence...

Between users that is. You'll definitely find some ready pitchforks when you look into political arguements, because pacifism is out of fashion I guess.

I think that the term 'liberal' (repectively 'liberalism') is both very vague and widely misused. Also that 'left' and 'liberal' are not mutally exclusive at all.

IG he could try to broker a deal or to convince some poeple to switch sides... Or this is a trap

'Somewhat opinionated' is what comes to mind for those last two paragraphs.

I know the makers of GrapheneOS are effectively privacy activists, so that is to be expected. I not sure what to think of this kind of alarmism however. 'Chat Control' is largely rejected and laws regulating security have been altered specifically to acommodate FOSS projects. I also really dislike the way they shit on companies and other third party OSs. They may be right, but it feels like a weird way to go about this

I think you vastly overestimate him. Surely this subtle difference in the wording goes well over his head

I mean, if you feel like you're addicted, you should probably look into it. I wouldn't do this by asking random strangers, but rather search for medical sources. For example you could search for (legit) porn addiction questionaires and if it turns out you indeed score high there, what you can do about it.

What purpose do humans have now?

I don't expect software companies to refrain from using AI altogether, what bothers me much more are the attitude and conduct here. Insulting people who want to move just a little slower? Security second? Forcing AI onto your employees? The fuck?

You are a privacy-focused company. There is no privacy without security. Security comes first. It's that simple.

Every breach seriously hurts your reputation. One big mistake and your business may be wiped out. How can you not see that? Pushing your employees to work faster and use unreliable AI tools is the opposite of what you should do.

That is true of course, all I meant to say is that using a web browser shouldn't demand more than 8 GB of RAM. On Linux, with zswap, you can probably get away with it. On Windows? Probably a horrible experience (the persistent horrors of Windows aside).

Thinking back to the 'you either make fun of astrology or get laid'-meme... Maybe I should ask my mom about my time of birth.

Mine definitely is. But it's such a complex shape, I think it's hard to notice, especially as one moves

Endlich mal fickend qualitative Nachrichten.

Zwei Katzen haben in Bremerhaven einen Einsatz der Polizei und Feuerwehr ausgelöst. Wie die Beamten mitteilten, alarmierten Anwohner eines Mehrfamilienhauses in der Nacht zu Mittwoch die Einsatzkräfte, weil laute Geräusche aus der Nachbarwohnung sie um den Schlaf brachten. Vor Ort öffnete den Angaben zufolge niemand die Tür, so dass die Feuerwehr sie aufbrechen musste. In der Wohnung fanden die Polizisten aber keine Menschen - sondern zwei Katzen, die es offenbar geschafft hatten, den Staubsauger einzuschalten. Die Beamten schalteten den Staubsauger aus und "ermahnten die beiden Vierbeiner mündlich, sich für den Rest der Nacht ruhig zu verhalten", so die Polizei weiter.

 
 

Hey, so I have brand new HDDs I intend to put in a btrfs software RAID. They're Seagate ST4000VX016-3CV104 4TB Skyhawks. Workload is basically write and forget, I will probably never delete a thing.

However I decided to test them first and noticed that after writing about 160 GB, some SMART counters have gone up significantly. Read error rate went from 6.632 to 90.238.872 for example (seemingly all correct by hardware ECC), seek error rate from 143 to 87.661.

Am I reading things correctly? This does not seem like the way healthy drives should behave, does it? It similar on all of them tho. Are they just trash-tier drives they somehow got to work with ECC?
