If they didn’t in all that time, it’s probably because they don’t want to keep their account.

That's an assumption that leads to corporate bullshit like this.

In that case why block the add-ons in the first place? There is a risk that the "Mozilla is blocking privacy friendly add-ons on the behest of an authoritarian regime!" news will become more widely known than any correction. If it had been a planned PR move then any person involved in it should never work in marketing again.

I'm definitely guilty of that sometimes.

I was thinking the whole week if I should vote the greens or the pirates but due to the recurring campaigns to establish a surveillance state I did end up voting pirates. Incredibly disheartened they didn't get a seat :(

I remember warning labels on BIOS updates that basically said that if nothing is broken, don't do the update because the risk of bricking the device did not outweigh any potential benefits. That vendors are now pushing mandatory BIOS updates through Windows Update is terrifying.

He's 100% a crisis actor.

Correct me if I'm wrong but wasn't Krah just forbidden by his party to go campaigning (and he did campaign anyway)? As far as I know he's still part of the AfD.

I've seen that done for configuration management like Salt or Ansible. The repos for that were always hosted on internal Gitlab instances though.

I'm not the biggest fan of capitalism myself but the existence of debt does not mean it is broken. Debt is a mechanism to allow for solid investments, e.g. building infrastructure or schools that will create a net positive in the (far) future.
Germany for example has enacted a Schuldenbremse (debt-break) in 2009 and forbids our states to take on new debt and limits the debt taken on the federal level to a minisule percentage of the GDP. Our infrastructure is currently slowly but noticeably crumbling away, bridges are getting closed for heavy traffic and experts say many of them have become irreparable due to missing maintenance and need to be fully rebuild in a few years. The local military barracks are in such a desolate condition that the soldiers need to drive two towns over to shower. We might not take on financial debt, but an infrastructure debt that will demand an even bigger toll on us.

It's great for some people, awful for others. It became a meme because it started to be suggested to everyone even though it's an awful first introduction to the Linux ecosystem.

At its core it is a sandbox war economy simulator in space with some bad (optional) story tacked onto it. It offers some tutorials but most things will be learning-by-doing. The battles are quite fun and you can participate with whatever ship you like, from fighters, frigates or corvettes all the way up to destroyers and carriers. Building your own stations to fill the deliberate shortages of the NPC economies is very satisfying and the station designer is easy to use. The universe is somewhat dynamic with warring factions being able to take over territory of other factions and the Xenon faction posing a threat to everyone although these changes are slow so you won't be rushed into defending yourself (except if you setup shop near enemy territory).

People can get into this weird fixation mode where when they made a decision then nothing can keep them from doing it except if it's physically impossible.

I think there are two areas missing in this picture so that's probably a contributing factor.

I'm really looking forward to experiencing the events of the older games in the new engine! (Though from what I understood it's not the whole stories but just a few key scenarios).

If you're in Germany, a car is the best weapon to get away with murder since car drivers (especially the elderly) usually get only a slap on the wrist if they injure or even kill someone.

Quassel, self-hosted.

Please no. :( I do like 99.99% of online payments through them because the convenience they offer is really great, especially with recurring payments. :/

I tried it out and it has some issues here and there but seems to be on a good track to become a good Mediaplayer. I'm not 100% happy with Strawberry and used to use Amarok way back when before I switched to the, now un-maintained, Cantata. I'll definitely follow the development of this.

Saving $1,000/month is doable for many people

You're not being serious, right?

Not surprised. Republican voters won't care, Centrists will lay the blame on Biden and Democratic voters who don't see the full story get discouraged to vote for him.
