We're talking about AfD. They don't even hide the fact that they are nazis. People who vote for them never really learned from history.

What happened? Did they finally introduce death penalty for smoking in public?

Of course, but I can see and understand what is patched and can see if I'm affected or not. In the previous version I haven't been affected for 500 days.

Another shitty country on my list where I'll avoid to travel to. Thanks for the hint.

You mean when you update the kernel? No one updates init on BSDs. This is mostly a entire world upgrade. But I'd never reboot from cron. My servers run 100 days without a reboot on average. In most cases there is no reason to update world, only the packages.

Reboot? Since when does Linux need a reboot? I've been thinking about migrating from FreeBSD to Linux, but now I am confused.

I have never understood what this green bubble is. I thought it was plainly aesthetic. Now you both tell me Apple deliberately breaks stuff in an infectious way just because an Android user is around. Apple is evil. I will never buy any stuff from them.

It's not only the price. I simply don't want to have iOS devices. I like their technology and the iOS implementation, don't misunderstand me. But I won't accept a walled garden in my pocket. I have so much software installed from different sources and I like to write apps by myself, too.

Many people are only happy with unlimited possibilities. If you are restricted and not trusted as a power user, your phone is not worth to be called "smart".

Many popular things are crappy. It is not an ideology, unless you consider the scientists who invented the WWW to be some freaks.

Flash wasn't really useful, because many people couldn't display these websites. It was the exact opposite of WWW. WWW enabled people to use hypertext and provided accessibility.

It's the market that controls the prices. Many shops won't rise prices because they would lose customers, if many others don't.

But after an agreed price rise, it's a different situation. It takes more time to sell cheaper, because the shops want to pretend that stuff is expensive just a bit longer.

Just have some patience and try to avoid the expensive stuff, as much as you can for some time. The biggest risk for shops is that someone finds alternatives and actually never again buys the previous product. They'll panic and prices will fall drastically.

Adobe has already proved they don't understand web technologies when creating Flash.

Any features that are mentionable? I don't use spaces on Matrix.

As someone who has used Matrix since the beginning and have never seen Discord. What am I missing?

No pepperoni?

To learn how to fight, you need to take part in fights.

I use LaTeX. I needed to learn a lot about it to use it, but it's the only thing that can set letters, paragraphs and book structure properly.

I cannot imagine that any politician wants to deny access to knowledge. Something doesn't make sense about it and I suspect the story is one-sided.

Is there a possibility that they plan to use digital books in the future and consider libraries a waste of space or something like that?

There are also devices that translate handwriting to digital documents. You have them searchable, editable and safe.

While I agree that you don't need mobile phones in the classroom (you can organize stuff later), they are necessary to organize life. Also schools already use email, share documents and appointments digitally.

That said, I cannot live without my calendars, emails, quick access to important documents and family chat I use daily. I can absolutely live without a pen. The only time I really need it is when my (non-digital) signature is needed.

I wished I had the power of a smartphone in my pocket, when I was young. It is a great thing to have things organized digitally and get rid of pen and paper.

Of course you can do dumb things with a smartphone, but there are many tools you can misuse. Teaching young people how to take advantage of the tools is more reasonable than to take them away.

I'll try. Short: It's not as powerful as ZFS.

Examples:

• no low cost snapshots (don't harm performance)
• no checksums, no self-healing
• 256 TB limit
• magical reserved $ and OneDrive filenames
• magical 8.3 mapping
• broken standard API calls (CreateFileW instead of fopen)
