Just for arguments sake, why is this not considered an act of war? Why is it not feasible to place navy in the area that is authorized to sink any foreign ships acting suspiciously? Chinussia will either have to admit they engage in covert ops against the west and NATO or have their assets destroyed without being able to complain about it.

Not saying he is an anarchist, just that he wants anarchism. So he can become the new state.

You ask for anarchy without realizing that anarchy is what the rich fucks like elon really dream of. A world without governments where their exclusion from any obligations to society and legal responsibility can be institutionalized.

And then we have true, official neofeudalism.

I am german myself, citizen of Europe's capitalism capital. A country firmly in the grip of conservative impulses and the billionaires who play on them for their own gain. I still don't want to roll over.

Anyway, why do you not kill yourself then? Be done with it, do something good for the cosmos.

Or admit that you're just a fucking coward, too scared to keep on living and also too scared to just exit this plane of existence like your beliefs demand.

Ich habe deine posts in dieser Sache beiläufig verfolgt, und muss dir leider sagen dass ich von deinen Beschreibungen ausgehend nichts wirklich ungewöhnliches oder negatives in deinem Arbeitsumfeld wahrnehme. Für deine Kolleginnen und Kollegen ist der Arbeitsplatz offensichtlich auch soziales Umfeld, das damit einhergehende Getratsche und gelegentliche private Gespräche sind total normal in Deutschland.

Ich vermute aber auch dass deine Mentalität aneckt, da du deinen Arbeitsplatz in erster Linie als Wettkampf und Sprungbrett zu einer anderen Stelle zu betrachten scheinst und deine Kollegen eher als Konkurrenten wahrnimmst, was wahrscheinlich auch zur Folge hat dass du die anderen als kindisch und faul empfindest und ausgeschlossen wirst.

Letztendlich musst du es natürlich selbst wissen, wobei ich persönlich vorschlagen würde ein paar mehr Stellen auszuprobieren da du ja nach eigener Aussage stark nachgefragt bist und problemlos woanders unterkommen kannst. Auf diese Weise bekämst du Einblick in weitere Arbeitsplätze und die dortige Mentalität, und könntest besser beurteilen welche deiner Wahrnehmungen kulturelle Unterschiede, und welche tatsächlich problematisch sind.

I dont think i get your point, but for that matter I am not an american, I dont eat meat and I dont have a car, never mind an SUV lol. And the winning move here is to topple capitalism, not consent to die off.

So we should just roll over and die off peacefully? I think not

Only if you want your feed to be an echo chamber. In my opinion the best thing about the fediverse is that you can choose the rules and values you want to adhere to through your instance choice, without cutting off interaction with others unless you defederate their instances.

The frequent calls to blanket dismiss anyone on those instances are an unfortunate overreaction in my opinion.

I hate this so much as a leftist talking point. If the working class has no more kids all that happens is that we slowly phase out the peasants for the inevitable shift to fully automated labor, without even attempting revolution.

Just total submission to our neofeudal masters, allowing them to effectively kill us when we are no longer needed. Like cattle.

Have kids, if only so you have proper motivation to fight for a better tomorrow instead of this defeatist crap

Literally thousands of hours in stellaris and space engineers. Recently satisfactory as well.

When I was younger I also played a metric fuckton of world of Warcraft, though that thankfully is a lot less addictive nowadays.

As a fairly new Linux user, I haven't managed to run a single program through bottles. Just never works for me. Luckily I could get by so far with proton and auto generated lutris entries, but especially the latter I wasn't able to configure manually either.

This is a greentext. It must be fake and gay

 

Siehe Titel. Ich diskutiere regelmäßig per messenger Politik und Weltgeschehen mit einem ehemaligen Schulfreund, welcher neuerdings mit der bsw Partei liebäugelt als "das einzige was man noch wählen kann". Er ist zwar auch selbst russlandkritisch, ist aber nicht wirklich überzeugt dass die Partei aus Russland (mit)finanziert wird um kremlfreundliche Politik zu erreichen.

Gibt es glaubwürdige informationen welche das klipp und klar "beweisen"? (Echte beweise erwarte ich natürlich nicht, anderenfalls wäre die Partei wohl hoffentlich verboten, eher so was wie Großspenden von bekannten russlandfreunden oder unternehmen in nebulösem besitz).

 

Hey guys, I am trying to get rid of my old Facebook accounts. I have not been using them for years, in fact I dont know their login data and for one i dont even have access to the email address any more.

I am a EU citizen and attempted to instruct them to close the accounts per email, since logging in requires me to consent to them using my data or pay money (probably illegal here too).

They sent me a quick response basically to go fuck myself, even after I offered to provide personal identification to verify I am the account owner and reminded them that I am an EU citizen and that my data is subject to those laws.

How can i force these fuckers to comply with my request for deletion of the accounts and associated data?

 

Hey guys, I made the switch to Linux about a week ago and have mo complaints so far. Except maybe this: I can't seem to find a way in Linux to get proper loudness equalization like I got on windows.

My issue is that I have a bunch of media, especially shows and movies, that are suffering from way too loud gunshots, explosions, music and so forth and really quiet dialogue. I know this is because sound engineers make the audio fit for cinemas and not my living room, it is a problem nonetheless.

Under windows there is a simple toggle in even the most basic sound cards and settings called loudness equalization, that corrects those perceived differences quite effectively, which Linux is lacking. A bit of web search led me to the term ReplayGain, which seems to be the proper name for it, and I enabled it for my media from within the player apps. However it doesn't really work like i am used to.

Sounds and language constantly change volume mid sentence, which is very irritating to me. ReplayGain also doesn't really help avoiding those sudden bursts of loudness, I still blast awake my neighbors on accident when watching a move later at night.

Is there some way to get at that windows audio codec or whatever they use, that works so much better?

Thanks for reading

 

Hey guys, so i just now pulled the trigger, formatted my windows installation and installed Linux for the first time. I went with bazzite, which seems very gaming friendly and idiot proof with its rollback functionality.

Now to the issue: I have 3 drives in my computer, one 500gb SSD which i used for the OS. This one can be accessed fine as expected. The other two, a 2tb SSD and 1tb HDD however, dont. I cant seem to find a way to access them, and i have all my media on there / want to install games onto them.

How can i access them, and tell the OS that these two are also part of its system?

 

Hey guys, I am somewhat new to android (went straight to grapheneos) and am a bit annoyed with this widget.

It looks good, but the skip buttons are tiny and my gorilla fingers have trouble hitting them reliably. Is there a way to change to a different layout with bigger buttons or even gesture support?

I am aware that most music apps come with a widget for the home screen but I specifically need the one shown on the lock screen and pulldown menu to change.

Thanks in advance!

 

I hope this is the proper place to ask, though probably only indirectly on topic for this community.

What I am looking for is a way or tool to extract from a YouTube playlist the information which of my saved videos (usually very niche music from about a decade ago) are no longer available in it (so that I might procure them elsewhere).

With google being google, and the condensed information of "x videos are no longer available" that is displayed, I am fairly sure the information isnt gone gone, just hidden from the user.

Is there a way to get at that info?

Thanks in advance

 

Hallo, ich hoffe das Thema passt hier mit rein, auch wenn es nur angrenzt an das Privatsphäre-Bewusstsein. Also folgendes:

Ich habe kürzlich einen RSS reader installiert, und mir einige feeds abonniert, in erster Linie Nachrichten, um die elenden daten-oder-geld-banner welche auf vielen seiten heutzutage verwendet werden, zu vermeiden.

Leider musste ich nach langem zusammenklauben der feeds feststellen dass der Großteil der Anbieter den feed nur als Weiterleitung auf deren Website behandelt, was den Sinn des ganzen ja komplett verfehlt.

Die einzigen die ich fand, welche tatsächlich auch information darüber verbreiten und zumindest halbwegs seriös sind, sind die Tagesschau und n-tv.

Das ist aber leider recht mager, kennt jemand hier vielleicht noch andere gute feeds, welche auch tatsächlich feeds sind und nicht nur links mit clickbait Überschrift?

Interessieren würden mich allgemeine (globale) Nachrichten, innenpolitisches, und allgemein zeitgenössisches linkes bzw. progressives Gedankengut. Meinungsmache aber nicht, journalistische Mindeststandards und eine gewisse Neutralität sollten schon eingehalten werden.

Erwähnte feeds: https://www.tagesschau.de/XML/rss2 https://www.ntv.de/Politik/rss

The civics were a tossup between shadow council and police state but I really couldn't justify not using one of the other two, they fit so well.

 

So i recently got my first android phone after having been an iphone user for years. So far i am really happy and especially enjoy finding foss alternatives to as many apps as possible.

However i cant seem to find a gameboy emulator, one oft the things i missed on ios all those years. Mostly for gba games, maybe gbc too. Does someone here have a recommendation? All the ones i found on fdroid were incompatible.

Hallo, nach meinem vorigen post von vor ein paar Wochen (https://lemmy.zip/post/12072494) bin ich jetzt dabei mein leben insgesamt von so vielen Konzernen wie möglich zu befreien (das schlimmste bisher war der Wechsel von spotify zurück zu lokalen Dateien die mir gehören, man findet fast nichts mehr außer mainstream releases).

Klappt soweit ganz gut, allerdings scheint es keine wirkliche alternative zu Google oder Apple maps zu geben. Alle Dienste welche ich mir angesehen habe waren leider zu unzuverlässig oder unvollständig.

Ich muss auch endlich mal meinen Gmail-account wechseln (habe ich seit bald 20 Jahren, wird sicher spaßig die Adresse überall zu wechseln). Gibt es da etwas empfehlenswertes? Ich habe proton ein paar mal in Kommentaren gelesen. Bin ich damit gut beraten?

Dann gibt's noch „Nischen-Apps" wie die banking apps meiner Sparkasse oder das digitale busticket welches in meiner Region verwendet wird, beide sind im Grunde alternativlos, aber nicht notwendigerweise sparsam mit der Datenerhebung.

Letztendlich sind da dann noch die verbleibenden messenger (telegram und discord) welche ich auch gern los wäre, ist aber leider komplett abhängig davon was alle anderen benutzen. Besonders discord missfällt mir, die sind fast so schlimm wie facebook mit der schnüffelei. Ich habe aber mal bei oberflächlicher websuche einige alternativ Clients entdeckt, vielleicht tut sich da ja was auf.

Vielleicht hat hier ja jemand ein paar tips?

I was wondering if you could add alternate icon support for the Android version, so it can be themed properly.

Obviously this is purely cosmetic, but it would be a very nice addition

Update for future readers: the functionality actually already exists, choose one of the themed icons for voyager from the list.

So it just occurred to me that during the TNG production era there is a shift in ship nomenclature:

  • TNG: The Enterprise
  • DS9: The Defiant/Yukon/Danube/etc.
  • VOY: ~~The~~ Voyager
  • (ENT): "Ennurprais" is all that’s left.

Seems towards the later shows they stopped referring to the ship as a, well, ship and just addressed it as a character? Why?
