…was still leaked to CNN by an anonymous, low-level loser in the intelligence community,” White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt told CNN in a statement.

USA has become such a fucking joke…

ne, der ist traurig, weil das tuch an seiner nudel hängen geblieben ist? /j

Same for me, no TV for the last 15 years. All I consume is online and about topics I like.

TBs of data per day? You know how much text fits into 1tb? o.O

Anyway, we seem to enjoy a pretty similar type of entertainment. For me, it’s all about liking what I do. I can’t stand doing things I dislike at all.

Lemme ask you about ADHD?! I’m pretty sure I have it but don’t care. I am who I am. How about you?

I have a theory: information is best remembered if it is acquired solving a problem.

Play with the new tech, hit a roadblock, read and learn. That way you are motivated, know why you are reading the stuff and also only learn the stuff that isn’t intuitive.

Depending on experience many things are just like something you already know and easy to learn/remember, others are not. Don’t waste your time learning the first.

On the other hand, put me into a room with a teacher, who tries to teache me specifics about a tech I don’t care about and I will promise you, I will learn nothing. Even worse, I will start to hate that tech.

My trick to remember:

You can link to a target without giving a name to the link. ln will use the basename of the target file then. You can’t create a link without a target, so target has to go first since it’s not optional. Did it for me

There is a way with chmod in bash to change files and folders with files getting no execute bit and folder do (rwX instead of rwx). It’s in the man pages but good luck finding it via Google. Stackoverflow just suggests using find over and over again.

That did it for me.

non technical people are doing pretty well, because they don’t try to install photoshop or nvidia drivers downloaded from the nvidia drivers page.

The “windows power user” are the hardest demographic, because they expect to know what they are doing but the don’t if they are new to linux.

What did LTT write in the terminal again: “i know that this opperation will delete my gui and i am sure that i want that”, presses enter and wonders why his gui is gone. go figure

+1 for netbox

Tbh I’m astounded that politics in the past managed to get that thought reflected in law and constitution. Not guilty until proven otherwise. In dubio pro reo!

Nowadays, I would not expect that much rationality from most people.

A few years ago I went for a walk and in front of me two left leaning people were talking to each other: “I’m looking forward to Saturday” the girl said to the guy. “There is a big Nazi demo in the next big city and I can’t wait to punch an Nazi”…

So in what way are you better then the Nazi, I thought.

It always starts with dehumanizing the others… then you can do whatever you want to them, without thinking about the suffering you created

Ich höre diese Meinung immer wieder aber halte sie für absoluten quatsch: Verschließt du die Augen, vor dem was wichtig ist, wenn du dich weigerst dich mit der flat earth Theorie auseinander zu setzen?

Was man immer bedenken muss, Aufmerksamkeit erzeugt macht und verschiebt Meinungen. Die AFD ist es meiner Meinung nach nicht wert, über sie zu berichten.

Ohne die Medien und das diskutieren über die Person Trump, wäre dieser Trottel niemals gewählt worden.

Es gibt so viele Themen, die es wert sind über sie zu diskutieren. Verschwendet man die Aufmerksamkeit auf die unwichtigen, gibt man diesen nur unnötige credebility.

Es heißt Eufzkirchen /s

So many people believe: because they know about a bias, they are not affected. Hint: they are!

I believe you!

baader meinhof phenomenon!

That’s not how it works. It’s dealing with different values. If you have 200 billion dollar but lose 201, you are in debt as fuck. Problem ist, since you gave been worth that much, people will give you another billion to help you out.

Many rich people got pretty poor after heir imaginary worth tanked. Don’t draw the picture of them being invulnerable!

It’s astounding how far simple trial and error has brought us. No need for scrum or agile!

UK did exactly that. They never swapped their pound with euro. I’m all for it!

Government needs to buy a hell of a lot of cars to minimize the losses Tesla is reeking in everywhere else.

EV sales grew by 27% still Teslas is down 70% in Germany.

Btw. who should drive them if all government workers get fired?

If you think about it: have you ever gotten a picture of the spammer itself in an spam message

That’s the spirit. Reddit and all other social media died for me during the exodus 1 1/2 years ago. Since then i go to lemmy and I’m fine. Tbh I’m not really sure if more user will not also pull commercial interests into the fediverse and if that is something I’m looking forward to, but for now, everything seems like reddit around 2010, not too big but big enough to not being out of content after scrolling for 10 mins.
