state_electrician,

How the billionaire class is fucking everyone on earth.

state_electrician,

For others: that’s only 1.48 Euro per liter. Gas here is currently at 1.91 Euro per liter, that’s about $7.74 per gallon.

state_electrician,

I somehow just always followed since Netscape Navigator.

state_electrician,

1995 for me. I bought a copy of DLD, a long-since defunct distro at a store. This was before I went to uni and before I had internet, which made learning it very frustrating. And then I wanted to use a printer. Not quite happy memories.

state_electrician,

Oh, yeah, I forgot about that! Yeah, Linux at that time really was something else. We’ve come such a long way, it’s amazing.

Tirade: Registrierung zur elektronischen Patientenakte bei der AOK German

Endlich wollte ich mir mal die elektronische Patientenakte zu Gemüte führen. Immerhin hat man als Patient ja - vlt. - auch was davon. Also die App der AOK runtergeladen, gestartet, meine Daten eingetragen und ich werde aufgefordert, die Versicherungskarte per NFC zur Authentifizierung zu nutzen. Ja toll, das ist doch mal...

state_electrician,

Authentifizierung wird eigentlich immer an Dienstleister wie WebID oder NECT ausgelagert. Das finde ich grundsätzlich auch nicht schlimm, weil die das im Zweifelsfall besser machen als wenn jedes einzelne Unternehmen das selbermachen muss. Und beim ePA kann ja nun nicht sonstwas ausgelesen werden, weil da nicht viel drauf ist. Grundsätzlich nur Sachen, die deiner Krankenkasse ohnehin bekannt sind. Und dem Authentifizierungsdienstleister muss dass dann zwangsläufig auch bekannt sein. Über Digitalisierung gibt es viel zu schimpfen, aber deine Argumente finde ich etwas übertrieben.

Bei der TK ist es übrigens auch so, dass man die PIN zur Karte per Post bekommt. Sollte mich nicht wundern, wenn die dazu verpflichtet sind.

state_electrician,

I really enjoyed Dan Brown’s Robert Langdon books as over-the-top trashy fun. Then I tried reading Digital Fortress and I just couldn’t. I just kept screaming in my head “That’s not how this works! That’s not how any of this works!” and at that point I realized what art historians must feel about the Robert Langdon books.

state_electrician,

For me it’s Barrier/Input Leap which keeps me stuck on X. Still waiting for a solution there then I’m moving over.

state_electrician,

I went in blind and ended up really liking it. Just a fun ride.

state_electrician,

Oh, I got a few:

Wings of Honneamise is an anime from the 80s that I rarely see mentioned that has a special place in my heart. It’s about the first space program in some foreign world, with conflict and war that captures the frontier spirit.

Black Rain, directed by Ridley Scott and starring Michael Douglas and Andy Garcia, is not exactly some small indie movie but I never see it mentioned anywhere. I would describe it as a fish out of water story with two American cops going to Osaka. I love the movie and the soundtrack.

Colossus: The Forbin Project from 1970 is a sci-fi classic that I think really holds up.

A Taxing Woman from 1987, co-incidentally the same year as Wings of Honneamise, is a Japanese movie about a tax collector going after a criminal who is hiding his income really well. I caught this late at night on TV 30 years or so ago and just enjoyed it a lot.

The Extraordinary Adventures of Adèle Blanc-Sec is a French movie, bringing a comic of the same name to the screen. I really liked the comics already and the movie was fun as well. Early 20th century Paris, some fantasy elements.

Forbidden Planet, 1956, is also a sci-fi classic, starring a young Leslie Nielsen in a serious role.

The 1978 version of Invasion of the Body Snatchers is my favorite version of the story. It stars Donald Sutherland, Leonard Nimoy and Jeff Goldblum. You might have seen Sutherland from this movie as a meme.

La Haine is another French movie, starring Vincent Cassel, Very intense, very good.

Ladyhawke is a fantasy movie starring Rutger Hauer, Michelle Pfeiffer and Matthew Broderick. I wish there were more movies like this. Just telling a nice story. A cursed couple, a thief and a lot of adventure.

The Name of the Rose, with Sean Connery, Christian Slater and Ron Perlman, is a lovely version of Umberto Eco’s book of the same name, that tells the story in an actually entertaining way.

The Ninth Gate with Johnny Depp is another book adaptation that I think is better than the book. Fantasy and mystery and suspense.

Oxygen is a French sci-fi movie with a really minimalistic set and cast that I was pleasantly surprised by.

The Patlabor movies are among my favorite anime movies. Mostly calm and mature characters and nice stories.

The Prophecy with Christopher Walken and Elias Koteas was an indie success in the 90s. Angels, the Devil and mortals caught in between.

Shin Godzilla (2016) is my favorite Godzilla movie of all time. I can see why people might not like it, but it just tickled me in all the right places.

Strange Days is one of the best cyberpunk movies out there.

Top Secret! is brought to you by Zucker, Abrahams, Zucker, who brought us, amongst other movies, The Naked Gun trilogy and Hot Shots. It’s equally silly and funny.

state_electrician,

I am, very slowly, building a Wireguard management UI. None of the ones I looked at do what I want, so I am doing my own. The think I just finished is a magnet: and .torrent handler that sends any link to my central torrent client.

Do you pirate? And do you justify pirating? i.e., what is your piracy philosophy?

Well, my friend, he’s kinda poor he can’t afford some books and some streaming services, so he pirates. He pirate books, audiobook and videos and other stuff. Sometimes he buys books he likes a lot out of loyalty to the author (yeah, I don’t understand it either), he likes to read physical books, but yeah, if he hates the...

state_electrician,

I think taking it to that extreme is stupid shit. If you invest time, effort and maybe money to create something, you should be able to profit off of it. But the current state is indeed holding humanity back. There needs to be a limit like you own your stuff for 10 to 20 years or until you die, whatever comes first.

state_electrician,

Yeah, but half the people here weren’t even born when it came out.

state_electrician,

Well, I think that these models learn in a way similar to humans as in it’s basically impossible to tell where parts of the model came from. And as such the copyright claims are ridiculous. We need less copyright, not more. But, on the other hand, LLMs are not humans, they are tools created by and owned by corporations and I hate to see them profiting off of other people’s work without proper compensation.

I am fine with public domain models being trained on anything and being used for noncommercial purposes without being taken down by copyright claims.

state_electrician,

Ach, der jute Teppisch.

Barrier/Input Leap/other KVM server for Wayland?

I really want to use Wayland, but the lack of a Wayland-based KVM sharing tool is an absolute deal breaker for me. I tried so many of them, but none worked. Waynergy looks alright, but it’s only a client. rkvm didn’t work at all and I don’t remember the names of the other tools I tried. I know that Input Leap/Barrier has...

state_electrician,

Waynergy advertises itself as a client only, so it’s not an option for me either.

state_electrician,

No, with Barrier I can use one set of keyboard/mouse seamlessly on multiple machines. I don’t want to manually switch. I just want to drag the mouse across and the clipboard works too.

state_electrician,

Yeah, I know. And from what I read, it won’t work with wlroots, which means it won’t work for me.

state_electrician,

Hm, Volt 84%. Kenne die gar nicht. Danach noch mehr Unbekannte mit deb Humanisten, V3 und dann erst die Grünen.

state_electrician,

Making all questions mandatory means I abandoned the survey at some point. If you want people to respond, don’t make it feel like. a chore.

state_electrician,

I run Jellyfin in Docker on a Pi4 and it works great. The only problem are x265 files, because Jellyfin tries to transcode them and the Pi cannot handle that.

state_electrician,

I love OSM and use it through OsmAnd. I also contributed in the past, creating the first mapping for the area I lived in back then. I want to contribute again. But I find that wherever I go, everything is already mapped to the finest detail. A good problem to have, I think.

state_electrician,

How did you disable it? I would love to just have a direct stream, but I can’t find an option for that anywhere.

state_electrician,

I tried that, but then it won’t play any HVEC video.

state_electrician,

Nice to see you here, Mr. Stallman.

state_electrician,

My father had his own business and at some point he had an assistant who is one of the dumbest people I’ve ever met. Her husband was an idiot too. At one point she was angry with him because he bought a “real” leather jacket out of some Russian guy’s trunk on some rest stop on the highway.

state_electrician,

I scrolled all the way down here to find Dead Like Me. I was so fond of that show. The movie was awful.

state_electrician,

When I was in Tokyo I went to a restaurant and all the other customers were women and I felt everyone peek glances at me the entire time I was there. They served me food but to this day I am not sure what I walked into.

state_electrician,

Since backing SC I’ve met my wife, got married and had three children. Two of which are already going to school. It’s crazy how much you can accomplish in 13 years. I wonder if the game will be done before my oldest turns 18.

state_electrician,

Well, renting out property is the only way for most people to achieve some moderate wealth.

state_electrician,

I mean, who wouldn’t? Most people don’t commit crimes, which is of course the right way. But if you do, only idiots create any evidence in the first place, but only complete idiots leave that evidence around for law enforcement to find.

state_electrician,

He is obviously an idiot, because he’s creating evidence left and right. With these people I think it’s a mix of stupidity and hubris. They got away with so much crap, they think they’ll get away with everything.

state_electrician,

Break on through to the otter side.

state_electrician,

That’s the usage you’re familiar with. But even if it was widely accepted at some point, the meaning can change over time. That’s normal, that’s what languages do. If you complain about shit like that, you sound like my 80 year old father.

state_electrician,

Most Americans do not speak Spanish. Knowing a phrase or two does not mean you’re speaking the language.

Unterstützt du die Ziele der Letzten Generation? German

Das ist hier zwar schon eine krasse Bubble aber mich interessiert es dennoch: Unterstützt du die Ziele der Letzten Generation? In den Augen vieler, sind die Bürger:innen, die sich z.Z. täglich in Bayern hauptsächlich auf die Straße kleben ein massiver Dorn im Auge und Kritik ist immer angebracht, sowohl zu der Organisation...

state_electrician,

Fahhrad bedeutet dass die Stadt nicht anständig zu Fuss und OPNV benutzbar ist.

Das ist doch Unfug. Viele Leute fahren gerne Rad. Bin damit schneller als zu Fuß und gesünder als mit dem ÖPNV unterwegs. Mit vernünftiger Stadtplanung hat das nichts zu tun.

state_electrician,

Ich habe ja nie gesagt, dass es etwas für alle und für jede Gelegenheit ist. Ich habe mich lediglich an deiner pauschalen Aussage gestört. Fahrräder haben ihren Platz in einer lebenswerten Stadt.

state_electrician,

Directed by Rosann Dawson, who, amongst other work, played B’Elanna Torres in the Star Trek universe.

state_electrician,

I liked the first season. It wasn’t perfect, but still fine. Will definitely watch season 2 once I can binge it.

state_electrician,

Computer means Rechner, which is obviously male, because women can’t math. It’s easy if you just think about it.

state_electrician,

Who the fuck says “der Butter” or “das Joghurt”? Nutella is difficult, because it’s a name.

state_electrician,

Der ist so übel und so unerwartet, ich kann nicht aufhören zu lachen.

state_electrician,

Are you familiar with revenge porn like Taken? I think your argument falls flat, because on one side there are tons of movies where problems are solved by violence and the hero still comes out looking good. And on the other side promoting violence is not viable long-term for any society that doesn’t want to drown in murder and self-justice.
