Und Rechnungen für Geschäftsausgaben sind ganz nervig zu bekommen, weil man das Geld an Booking.com überweist, die Hotels aber die Rechnung ausstellen sollen.

Das ist doch aber ein ganz normaler Vorgang und z.B. bei HRS nicht anders, und das haben alle meine letzten Arbeitgeber genutzt.

Ich meine aber, dass die Unterkünfte wählen können, ob vor Ort oder vorab gezahlt wird.

Gutes Urteil.

Nichtsdestoweniger buche ich mit unbekannte Unterkünfte eher mit Booking, auch wenn es dann in Zukunft mehr kostet. Ich habe da schon Betrug erlebt - Anbieter stellt eine Unterkunft ein und nach Ankunft bekommt man eine andere, schlechtere präsentiert. Aber kurz Booking angeschrieben mit dem Mailverlauf und schon war die Sache innerhalb weniger als einer Stunde geklärt...

I wanted to now that Garfield is breaking the fourth wall here

Then I remembered that this already happened in the very first strip, though it's Jon who does it there

No, there is nothing, and any investigation by copyright holders wouldn't lead to anything. Trying to get anything out of usenet today is futile.

I don't really know. For text based discussion, I prefer something like Lemmy, also due to better moderation tools etc. It's a cool early thread-based discussion tool, but mostly outdated.

Unfortunately, there is absolutely zero other use for it, and nobody should ever bother, it's wasted time.

YOUR REALITY IS SHAKEN

YOU HEAR THE WORD "MONDAY" ECHOING AND SHIFTING IN COLOURS

A kind of interesting phenomenon. He comes in with his dog, cries that he doesn't have a place to stay, Jon allows it for as long as needed and then... he just vanishes one day, leaving Odie with Jon, never to contact them again. Did something happen between the two? Was he ever real or a product of Jon's mind? A wiki states:

According to Davis, Lyman's original purpose was to be someone who Jon could actually talk to and express other ideas — a role gradually taken over by Garfield, himself.

It doesn't reveal who gave Lyman that purpose; it could be that it was Jon himself who, over the years, got less attached to reality, so he got done with talking to and interacting with Garfield.

That or it's just a lazy uninspired comic that only has a minimum level of continuity and doesn't care to explain why a former choir character suddenly vanishes.

It actually works. I read over it

Edit: interestingly, that link is now gone

Note: pressing continue doesn't solve it, the instructions that follow don't work because my adblock is DNS-based at system level.

Why so soft?

The vehicle seems to loud -> perform a check -> if it is too loud, confiscate to have it examined and fine the driver -> if vehicle is found to have been tampered with using illegal parts, don't return it and fine some more

Then bring it back into a legal state and auction it off anonymously

They're afraid of the drag dealers' wrath

A synthetic substance similar to mescaline, less headspace and body load, more entactogen, shorter and more manageable duration. Kind of like a hedonistic version of psychs compared to LSD.

I was also with a provider that didn't offer API access for the longest time. When they then increased prices, I switched, now paying a third of their asking price per year at a very good provider.

I guess migrating is difficult if the provider doesn't offer a mechanism to either dump the DNS to a file or perform a zone transfer (the later being part of the standard).

Can only recommend INWX for domains, though my personal requirements aren't the highest.

It should also be noted that he's a PoS in general. However, my conscience is clear, because I pirated the movie.

Not true, I also enjoy stuff not created by workers, like mountains, forests or the sea.

On the other hand, I hate a lot of stuff capitalism created.

A lot of paid cert providers were not so great before LE put the spotlight on the issue; it was more of a scheme to extract money from operators who couldn't afford to not offer TLS / SSL. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=647959 was a famous post that made fun of / criticized the system before LE. This hurt security, and if not free, LE wouldn't have worked.

Also wildcard certificates are more difficult to do automated with let's encrypt.

They are trivial with a non-garbage domain provider.

If you want EV certificates (where the cert company actually calls you up and verifies you're the company you claim to be) you also need to go the paid route

The process however isn't as secure as one might think: https://cyberscoop.com/easy-fake-extended-validation-certificates-research-shows/

In my experience trustworthyness of certs is not an issue with LE. I sometimes check websites certs and of I see they're LE I'm more like "Good for them"

Basically, am LE cert says "we were able to verify that the operator of this service you're attempting to use controls (parts of) the domain it claims to be part of". Nothing more or less. Which in most cases is enough so that you can secure the connection. It's possibly even a stronger guarantee than some sketchy cert providers provided in the past which was like "we were able to verify that someone sent us money".

Sehe das grundsätzlich anders als der Artikel. Es sind nicht primär die Zinsen. Die haben das Problem nur sichtbar gemacht. Deutschland hat sich zur Niedriglohnnation mit Fokus auf den Export gemacht. Binnennachfrage war da eher zweitrangig, da kann man auch die Einkommen hoch besteuern, während die Vermögenssteuer nicht erhoben wird.

Jetzt ist es allerdings so, dass die deutsche Wirtschaft prinzipbedingt nicht sehr innovativ ist. Deutschland fördert einfach große Unternehmen sehr viel stärker, diese sind aber auch sehr viel starrer. Und sobald deren Produkte im Ausland nicht mehr gefragt sind - sei es aus Kostengründen oder einfach weil das Produkt nicht mehr benötigt wird - ist es halt vorbei.

You can catch Mew in Red and Blue using the trainer/fly glitch, I did so myself. Can be done as early as crossing Nugget Bridge and before fighting Misty as you need the first gym trainer to fight you for it to work.

Weed makes you question if you should get more snacks

I haven't tried it in a really long time though but I didn't really like it very much. Not that I think it's bad, but it's a downer and they're just not my favorite.

Acid and 2C-B on the other hand, man. Haven't tried other psychs unfortunately but I find them both great for their individual effects. Unfortunately, there's the huge stigma around psychs in general plus the naturalistic crowd that makes up a proportion of psych users will only accept stuff like shrooms, peyote and ayahuasca.

Ja, das meinte ich damit, dass z.B. Administration über SSH auf die echte IP stattfand. Das ist glaube ich nicht ungewöhnlich.

I actually liked his take on Postal.

Was it great cinema? No... but since Postal doesn't take itself too serious, it kind of worked out.

Open source firmware doesn't mean anything as long as tivoization is happening.

Which I don't know whether it's the case, but legislature might make this a requirement.

The remark was about his bonuses.

Danke, ist korrigiert. COVID hilft nicht unbedingt beim Korrekturlesen

Andreas kann

Das hier ist fast schon ein bisschen lustig in Kontext...

😆

Once LSD becomes approved medication for ASD, my doctor will hear about my condition very fast

"Bacon causes cancer, smoking causes cancer... but smoking bacon cures it" is the version I know

Mir ist der Ablauf hier nicht ganz klar. Angeblich befand sich die Seite im "Darknet" (vermutlich zugänglich über TOR). Meine Vermutung ist, dass Strafverfolgern die echte IP bekannt war, sich der Server aber in Ausland befand und man das dem dortigen Behörden gemeldet hat. Diese haben dann dort den Traffic auf die Adresse überwacht und haben die über Standardprotokolle zugreifenden Adressen an deutsche Behörden gemeldet, die dann O2 angewiesen haben, die beschriebene Maßnahme durchzuführen?

Anders kann ich es mir nicht erklären

War diese Brücke nicht so gebaut, dass die Mitte nicht herunterfällt?

BiglyBT is okay but as you said somewhat of a hog, unfortunately it just didn't recognize my torrents one day. Switched to qBittorrent since then. Initially used Bigly because they were the first to implement the v2 spec.

The big issue that the author kind of mentions is that while the kernel has all these neat features, the overlaying OS seems to use them in such a way that they're often not effective. XP before SP1 was a security nightmare and we got lucky that blaster was not working correctly. A secure token for the processes in your session? It doesn't really help if every process you spawn gets this token with the user being the administrator (I know this is kind of different nowadays with UAC). A very cool architecture that allows easy porting? Let's only use it on x86. Even today, it's big news for Windows running on ARM, which the not-by-design-portable Unices have been doing for years.

Maybe if Microsoft had allowed the kernel to be used in other operating systems - not expecting a copyleft license - the current view is that Windows Is Bad, and the NT kernel is an inseparable part of Windows. And hell, even Windows CE which did run on other devices and architectures, doesn't use the NT kernel.

So while the design and maybe even large parts of its implementation may be good and clean, it's Microsoft's fault that the public perception of the NT kernel.

Shitty lineup? Get outta here

I, a systems guy, have a better time learning go than nix packages.

Go is a simple and elegant imperative language (that does come with its downsides); Nix the DSL is a functional language which requires a different way of thinking. Systems usually are operated imperatively, so it's normal that you'd find it easier.

It's not an easy language at all and one might ask if another one wouldn't do the job better, which is what Guix System kind of explores, but its (nix) design goals make a lot of sense.

NTSYNC is one example, I don't know what the current progress is https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20240124004028.16826-1-zfigura@codeweavers.com/

It was supposed to be in 6.10, I don't know if that actually happened

Es kann ja aber nicht sein, dass der Bürger dann der ist, der es ausbaden muss, wir leisten uns einen Riesenapparat, der für so dass Regeln aufstellt und wenn dann so etwas an zugelassenen Fahrzeug kaputtgeht ist man auch noch der Doof? Dann sollen es die Händler eben zurücknehmen müssen, bei Elektrogeräten klappt's ja auch

Not even the "I can't walk stairs anymore" ruse worked

Noch wirst du heruntergewählt, aber wir werden sehen, wie es bei der übernächsten Bundestagswahl aussieht.

Man sollte nicht vergessen, dass in der SPD - zwar auf andere Art und Weise, aber nichtsdestoweniger - auch einige gut von Russland gesponsert wurden (Schröder, Schwesig). Wenn aus der Ecke dann Stimmen kommen wir "man kann den Wählerwillen ja nicht ignorieren" und "schlimmer als eine Koalition mit der AfD ist ja nur, wenn die AfD ohne SPD regiert, den nur wir sind ein verlässliches Gegengewicht" usw...

Ich hoffe inständig, dass es dazu nicht kommt. Aber bisher hat die SPD gefühlt noch jeden Scheiss (mit)gemacht, und die Wähler vergessen es jedes Mal aufs neue.

For most network share I use /mnt/$server.

I use /mnt/$proto/$server, though that level of organization was probably overkill. Whatever...

I do /volumX for additional hard drives.
