Dude never heard of a library. I only bought a handful of books during my degree, I would’ve been homeless if I had to buy a copy of every learning source

That’s the point

It happens everywhere. Just Jannies doing janny things. Sweep it up, janny!

Just keep in mind: he does it for free

These results are just a drop in the bucket in relation to the grim state of German election results and overall societal discourse.

There’s not much room for optimism right now. Very dark skies ahead and things may get much worse before they will become better.

In my workplace we worked tirelessly to get rid of all VMware VMs as fast as possible when new pricing became clear. Thousands migrated. What a huge fuckup by broadcom.

That so called regime is a travesty. Hope the Iranian people can some day be free.

The pendulum is swinging back hard. Let’s just hope we don’t end up way deep into the danger since zone just because woke idiots couldn’t leave “good enough” alone.

Edit: wow leddit big mad

or substituted its own SSH host keys,

why would the backdoor do that? It would immediately expose itself because every ssh client on the planet warns about changed host keys when connecting.

Uncompressed WAV files, lol I’ll never get over that

It doesn’t even make sense. Simple compression algorithms like in use by FLAC or AAC are pretty much free to decompress on CPUs from this century and the cpu cycles you save by not doing wasteful IO of huge files from storage easily makes up for that.

I’m sure game devs can make some argument to not use ‘expensive’ compression, but not using any is just wasteful.

12/20 is not a good result. There’s a 25% chance of getting the same score (or better) by just guessing. The comments section is a good place for all the lucky guessers (one out of 4 test takers) to congregate.

Maybe i don’t know enough about Bierzelt culture. If they were singing Hölle, hölle, hölle or Atemlos, would you notice the (right) arm in the air?

Did we watch the same video? In the Twitter thread I saw the lady right in front was doing multiple Nazi salutes in a row, very excited about the song. Don’t think there’s any ambiguity what she was doing

Well they are also playing “Erika” which is a right wing dog whistle, though maybe not as uncommon in these circles, as outright Nazi salutes

Edit: Also curiously most people, myself included, never find themselves in danger of accidentally heil hitlering even when blackout drunk. Seems to become a more common occurrence in Saxony though.

does it support foobar2000 plugins?

probably not, since those are windows dlls. So here’s a short list of what I’d want from a fb2k replacement:

• a UI plugin with the power and flexibility of Facets/Refacets
• browse library by folder structure OR tags (most only do one or the other)
• powerful query language to actually find what I’m looking for
• binaural stereo for headphones plugin
• convolver
• convert to opus and replaygain scanning
• DR Meter
• handle my >100k tracks library without constantly crashing or being incredibly slow

Most alternatives I’ve tried can’t even deliver on half of those.

Similarly moving on to a decent issue tracker, Jira’s support for Epic’s/stories/tasks/capabilities and its linking ability is a huge simplifier for long term planning.

Modern ticket system or issue tracker? Yes, absolutely. But Jira? Certainly not, considering Atlassian’s business practices. A project like Linux deserves a system where they can maintain some control and it probably should be open source.

Yeah email is ancient and certainly terrible from a usability perspective if you’re an outsider to the workflows, but at least it can’t be shut off or taken away on a whim. Also it’s universal and therefore accessible.

There’s an interesting blog post on this subject (likely someone posted it already): https://dkb.blog/p/google-search-is-dying

I find it to be very agreeable. Search is dying and I don’t agree that appending “site:reddit.com” is any kind of permanent solution, just a workaround that will also break.

when breaking the internet and end-to-end encryption are part of any kind of “enterprise certification” that certification is worthless (or worse) and probably some kind of chinese or russian (or the CIA or whoever, certainly not your friend) psyop. Only a mindless idiot would implement it.

My work has a 100% mandatory vpn and mitm proxy for ssl scanning

These are worse than useless. They are anti safety. If this box or its private keys get compromised ALL tls traffic of all employees is immediately plaintext.

Any company that buys one of these appliances from mcafee or whatever is asking for it (losing most/all their secrets)

ohh boy, I almost forgot about that. That was super painful. It’s a website linus, not a file browser.

Do you really think OpenRC or runit or any of the other init systems people are using have any similarity to SysV init?

Yes? OpenRC is certainly much closer to sysvinit than systemd and in many ways just expands upon it.
