Maybe in hindsight it would have been better to have kept the nuclear power running, phasing out coal first and limit our CO2 emissions. (Who am I kidding, we would still emit the same amount of CO2, because we would have phased out coal already and Germany is only 2% of the problem...) But maybe we avoided fallout in central Europe and noone will know, which version of the past we decided against.

As one of people I can tell you that they dont. (But this might also be a small sample size)

I still can’t quite wrap my head around it. I remember from my childhood that it was a big deal when they found samples of dinosaur skin and eggshells. So I wonder, is this information simply “hidden” in the rocks surrounding the fosil bones, and can now be examined with these new techniques? Or does it take an exceptionally well-preserved sample that can now be analyzed in much greater detail, revealing more information?

Sounds like a good solution with a reasonable price for storage. I am a little sceptical, when I read good privacy and ai picture search on the same page. Is this possible without the provider having full access to all the data?

Thanks for the suggestion. This looks like a good out of the box solution like Dropbox.

Is the next console generation already launching next year, or is it just the xbox? Does seem like yesterday, when the ps5 released...

I have mixed experiences with LLMs and linux. While it helped a lot with the basics, like what partitions are needed and how to set them up or how to prepare the bios, it failed miserably, when my mint Installation on my old laptop would not boot. It got into a loop suggesting the same not working solution over and over again. The first normal search result had the correct solution that worked flawlessly (some problem with asus laptops).

I’m running on AMD hardware, which might help. However, I thought Nobara offers a special edition for NVIDIA GPUs to ensure better compatibility. Also, from what I understand, there’s a lot of optimization under the hood in Nobara, and it’s recommended not to change the base packages. Maybe this does include the desktop environment as well...

How well does matrix hold up in comparison to Session or SimpleX? Maybe i have been living under a rock, but i did not hear much about them.

I switched from win11 to nobara about 2 months ago and so far am really happy with it. Anything i should look out for that could avoid 'breaking' it?

Same for me. The start of the game was great. The difficulty just right. But most of the new characters are too strong. I stopped playing after I unlocked the duo upgrade, because there was simply no challenge left. I enjoyed it long enough to still recommend it for the price, but i feel like there is so much of the game left and I am somehow sorry I will never play it...

Ja, dafür ist so eine Solidargemeinschaft eben da. Jeder zahlt für den Straßenbau, auch wenn er kein Auto fährt, zahlt für Fußballübertragungsrechte oder den Tator im ÖR, auch wenn er es nicht schaut, zahlt für Bahntrassen, auch wenn er sie nicht benutzt, zahlt für Panzer, auch wenn er den Kriegsdienst verweigert. Nur so kann ein Staat funktionieren, wenn jeder seinen Teil beisteuert, in dem Wissen, dass es sich für das große Ganze schon lohnt und man auch etwas davon hat.

Wirklich schwierig, so schnell wie neue Chemikalien auf den Markt kommen, kommt die Regulierung nicht nach. Und bei dem riesigen Chemikalienmix lässt sich auch schwer mit einer whitelist arbeiten, so lange schon jede Handseife 10 unterschiedliche Inhaltsstoffe hat. Eigenverantwortung der Unternehmen wäre natürlich schonmal ein Ansatz. Aber vermutlich gibt es bei vielen Stoffen auch noch keine Möglichkeit diese so einfach aus dem Wasser zu entfernen oder diese fallen tatsächlich eher unbewusst an. Polemisch könnte man jetzt verlangen, dass das Abwasser für die Wasserspender in der Führungsetage verwendet werden sollte, damit mehr auf Sauberkeit geachtet wird.
