Take our Kanzler for example. He was involved in stealing over 50 million €. (CumEx) Not only didn't he get punished, now he's also in the highest position of the German government. And I wish it was an extreme example, but it's really not.
The health minister is responsible for the current health care crisis, which he kicked off over 10 years ago. Thanks to him clinics prefer to amputate diabetes patients over treatment, because it pays more.
Each of the ministers has done similar things such as getting an extra 150k€ salary from the coal industry etc.
It's not as visible for outsiders, because nations with corruption issues usually also have police and office workers essentially doing shakedowns to do their jobs, and that's not really a thing in Germany.
What is quiet widespread is politicians and office worker enriching themselves either directly from budgets theyre responsible for or by doing things for corporations which pay them handsomely.
> Number of job offers, in which the system is mentioned
its not a silver bullet, but I do think its at least somewhat representative of popularity.
No idea if what they're saying is true however, I've no knowledge about the domain.
ICANN can do that for .com domains, because that's their TLD. They cannot do it for the TLDs they've already sold/aren't responsible for.
You can even purchase your own TLD from ICANN if you've got the money and create whatever domain names you want.
Maybe stop talking about stuff you've no clue about, otherwise you'll forever be a dunning kruger person
I really don't see europe failing before 2050, and that was the time horizon i mentioned...
That's definitely going to be a step up in user comfort... The average apple user will definitely love it
I'm pretty sure that people of the future will consider the time between 1950-2050 century to be the golden age of our current Civilization.
There are so many basically unsolvable issues on the horizon that I see absolutely no chance that our society will survive in it's current form.
My bet would be that we'll devolve into another form of aristocracy as soon as AI/automation make a human workforce mostly redundant.
Technological progress is likely going to stagnate entirely at that point, we all know how rich people generally behave without outside forces...
Also hosting it yourself doesn't mean that you do everything yourself.
It would definitely spawn build plugins that do most of what you need if this practice actually establishes itself.
There is just too much money to be made for the corrupt people to stay away.
The honest and good offers are rarely taken, because they've realistic estimations - the dishonest one's only care about getting the contract, not finishing it... So they'll make the much better offer. And once work starts, the corruption keeps spreading. Everyone on every layer knows how unlikely their charges are going to be contested, so everyone just charges more for the same work, siphoning money from the project.
I'd consider that a cultural issue, because people at large have really started to only think about themselves and no longer identify with their work ethic. Which is understandable because the employers generally treat their employees like disposable tools.
I don't think there is any straightforward or easy solution, and it can get much much worse too. Just look at china's production issues for inland products, esp. food and consumable products.
she drives home and gets these notifications, which clearly spook her, which is why she made extra turns etc.
she sends a few messages to friends and/or family, because she's freaking out about it, but goes to sleep because she doesn't know what to do
one of these friends or family comes by in the morning, sees her car and checks it out before ringing her door bell
the given facts are quite believeable, though i doubt there is a human trafficing relation which she seems to think. its more likely a potential stalker, upset boyfriend or similar.
I've got a sony wh-1000xm2, some inear Jabra and the Bose 700, which came with my Pixel 6 purchase the other day.
It really is something the potential buyer should check out themselves in a store before buying, because they're really variable in quality.
According to mkbhd the Sony one's are the best at it, but they have very strong white noise background at least with my older model.
I actually had the same issue with that pressure on my ears, though it slowly went away and haven't noticed any displeasure in a long time now.
Not with realtime action games, nope. The server hopefully verifies, but not even that is a given... Just look at New Worlds immortality bug from a few weeks back for a pretty large budget game that forgot to do that to a sufficient degree.
And yet you encourage people to dive into misinformation in order to somehow magically figure out what of the provided information are outright lies or just misinformed ideas.
If you equate "Doing your research" to reading articles, opinions or even quoted declassified files then you're another victim of our current misinformation crisis.
And I honestly doubt that anyone but the most dedicated historians still actually study this assassination while crosschecking everything, reading everything indepth to make an attempt too actually figure out the context it had back then etc.
It is a lot of work to actually gain knowledge on something, however we've somehow started to consider reading documents which have at best entertainment value as doing research...
Maybe you're right and more then doubling the power consumption is a normal thing that just occasionally happens.
What you said was true for a very long time, but Moore's law has slowed down a lot over the last 5yrs and power consumption has increased significantly, and is about to become unreasonable in my opinion.
Maximum power draw of 2.4 kw for about to 10% of the uptime is ... sadly going to be reality soon.
You don't need a cookie banner to be allowed to create Cookies. You only need them if you're using them for something like tracking.
A session cookie, selected theme etc is all fine without that banner
You're not necessarily wrong, but that's definitely a survivalship bias. You only need to lose once for a game over, so everyone still playing underestimates the stakes at play, as there is close to no interaction to people that have lost.
The UX could definitely be improved, but it's manageable in my opinion
They can try to saturate the VPN host maybe, but that's going to be challenging considering that it's going to be limited to connection requests without valid credentials.
and these are likely set to be ignored on multiple failed attempts through fail2ban or similar tooling
Getting higher uptime is super easy for smallish inhouse deployments.
You just don't install any updates and let the server run, trusting your VPN to shield you from possible security issues.
The maintenance burden is the reason why people often prefer the cloud services, not the uptime. Because maintaining the instance with updates, reading all patch notes and steps for migration, keep every health metric monitored and respond quickly on issues without getting stuck googling for possible reasons is quite a bit of work and quickly forces you to employ n+1 people.
to quote wikipedias statistic from 2012:
- the United States had 3.38 road fatalities per 1 billion vehicle-km on its Interstate-type highways, often called freeways.[28]
Outage should take a minimum of 8 hours
Do you consider eating meat at a restaurant to be a morally acceptable thing to do?
The meat you consume there is likely factory grown, which means that the animal lived in total misery until it was brutally murdered under extreme duress.
It's highly likely that people will consider treating animals like that to be immoral at some point. If you don't accept your quote as truth you'll also have to accept that your descends will consider you (and everyone else in our society) monstrous.
I agree with the spirit of what you wrote, but I think that not allowing it is ultimately even worse then the unnecessary dependencies.
Limiting your dependencies should be a choice the developers themselves are meant to make, otherwise you risk estrangement and having unmotivated workers that don't feel responsible for their own work. That ends up costing more in the long run I think.
