Our politicians? That’s a new one

Our politicians? That’s a new one


Yeah, especially wasn’t prepared for such clear wording
Andreas Babler, saying that Austrians want “nothing to do with Trump’s politics of chaos and his war.”
Usually they just try to talk around heavy topics and try to not address the actual issue

So, if one optimizes for keyboard driven control (like i3 + (neo)vim as dev env) and mostly doesn’t use the mouse, they’re punished for being more productive?
And the guy just clicking around the whole day looks like the perfect worker
Has the same touch as measuring lines of code per day for productivity…
Start with the first book in the series though
“Consider Phlebas”
All the books in the series are great
Just like the linked article says, the ends are sometimes a bit lackluster
But I couldn’t stop.
Have read through all the books (ok, in the last 9th now) in like 3 months
Edit: fucking auto correct…
I’m currently reading the Hydrogen Sonata as well - as sadly his last book.
They were all pretty great and worth a read.
It’s a real pity he died too early…


Bin immer dafür Drogen zu regulieren, damit wir Qualität garantieren können.
Leider wird das nur bei bestimmten Drogen so gehabt und der Rest muss sich mit gesundheitsschädlichem Müll rum schlagen
Ne Einschränkung von Alkohol Verkauf auf spezielle Läden finde ich erstmal nicht weiter tragisch, auch wenn ich mir nicht sicher bin, wieviel das bringt
The fingerprint comes from your client.
So, if you use a browser, it will give away your operating system and quite some stuff more.
Pretty much every site you visit can do this, learn more about this here:
https://coveryourtracks.eff.org/
Persistent cookies can track you over different sites, that check for this cookie.
It’s not like the cookie has a life of its own, but different sites can check for that cookie and then they can report back to a server, so this server knows which sites you’ve accessed.
If you’re using a client app, like the official Reddit app, on your smartphone, it will have some permissions requested and that will be the data it has access to.
If it is running always in the background and has access to your location data, it potentially track your real world location.
If it wants to be linked with your Google/Apple account, it (maybe? (probably depends on the range of access requested)) has access to your real name.
But else, it can “only” gather data, that will help to identify you again - but this you is only your username.
Although I’m not sure how Reddit currently handles registrations, and if they now demand some real name.
But for example with browser fingerprints, they can with some probability identify the device again, but can’t really say who you are - like with a real name.
But every service you visit in the internet, independent of by browser or app, will see your IP - your numerical internet address, with which your devices communicate with any other device in the internet.
So, if you access a homepage, the web server will reply to your device by using your IP address, because that’s where the request came from and else it wouldn’t be able to send you the data you requested - like the data (text, images, code) of the homepage you want to access
The relation between your real name and the IP is known by your internet service provider (ISP) and for example law enforcement can get access to your real name, when they have your IP, but a typical homepage can’t get to that data.
So they’ll know that you accessed their homepage twice (and maybe some partner Homepages, with which they share this data), but they can’t really say who you are in the real.
For quite some time private IPs were also dynamic. So with every dial-in you’d get a new IP.
By now this isn’t the case anymore with my providers and connection types.
I’m still paying for a (rather) stable IP though, so I can access my server reliably with the same address - but you can also set up a script that updates a domain (like a www/“Internet” address) and you don’t need the IP, just like you can access google.com without knowing the IP of that server
Ok, that has gotten a bit off of topic, but I hope, it brought you some more understanding how those things work
If I got your question completely wrong, sorry.
Maybe I can give you better information, when you clarify where I went wrong
If someone sees, that I’m providing wrong or outdated information, please correct me :-)
Thank you very much!
Always have wondered where this is coming from
Well, ok
Can be nice too, but calling it surfing is a disgrace
Probably they don’t care about that - and I’m not caring as much to really complain
Have fun at the beach, whatever…
I’m still really suspicious about those morning people…
Waking up without alarm to go surfing?
Where the fuck happens that?
Usually we need to get up at fucking 7 to catch the early good waves and that’s in the single week we can afford to be somewhere at the beach
And I know, that is already a high level of complaining, but c’mon, you can’t just sleep and go surfing whenever. The sea dictates and that’s part of the experience to feel like the little thing surfing a ball of energy in an unforgiving sea, that doesn’t give a shit about your preferences.
Do I only go to the wrong places or is this just part of her bullshit?

Something like a bicycle bell was also our idea
That would have been perfect

Sometimes it’s not just about emergencies, where you need their immediate attention.
Sometimes you just want to kindly tell someone, that you’re here as they obviously haven’t seen you.
Like horning at a bicycle driver in front is pretty overblown, but I’d still like to alert them to me and my probable overtaking in a few
Also, I’d have this story to add: https://sopuli.xyz/comment/23291045

I just talked about that with my wife 2 days ago
We’re drive an electric car and had an old lady walking the street in front of us, which didn’t hear the noise the e-car makes
Using the real horn would be really not ok - and in some places you aren’t even allowed to, because of the local housing and stuff
I settled for opening the window and asking politely, but loud (as she obviously couldn’t hear as good anymore), to maybe step a bit out of the center of the street
A polite horn would have been really perfect
Haven’t looked at the different alternatives sponsored by European governments.
Are they actually E2E or is there a way for the government to finally have their long wanted backdoor implemented to snoop onto civilian communication?


As it seems, they tested it excessively in Vietnam…
Ok, that looks clean
Thank you :-)
Never heard about it
What’s the difference?
As far as I know, it’s about endurance with our ancestors
Because we can sweat. And with that, we can run longer without overheating.
There are still some people in Africa hunting their prey that way.
Everything else came afterwards. Not sure about the timelines, so can’t say how much impact evolutionary selection has - but would be a very uneducated guess anyway
