That turns them generally on or off. That setting was already toggle on. I turned it off and on again and restarted the app, but it didn’t show the message again.

As I said…i saw the changelog message and closed it. I just want to view it again.

Ich fühle mich angegriffen…

Yeah…I honestly didn’t look where this was posted. The text alone didn’t quite make the privacy focus obvious.

We use Zoom at work and that is quite good. I used Teams, Jitsi, BigBlueButton and Citrix and so far Zoom has had the least problems (Citrix being a close second place). It also has clients for all major platforms and OS.

Their latest update greatly improved the chat functionality (in my opinion) and it is slowly replacing all other internal communication channels (mail/phone).

Nazi imagery? What? What the hell are you talking about?

The name comes from the French spelling of Ariadne, a Greek mythical character.

Deepl is the same company as linguee, which is a dictionary that shows you examples of the words in actual text, so you get the context.

Thanks for the clarification. I would even say that I mostly agree with the sentiment. Immigration has been a pointless discussion for years now and I think no party (except the AFD) actually profited from it. SPD and die Grünen have both failed to disspell the AFD narrative.

That site is pure cancer :(

Well…I think you lost me. The really sudden loss of your job sucks, no matter what. I agree that a lot of people get laid off every day, but I feel sorry for them too. Employee protections in the US are also terrible compared to a lot of other countries. This situation is different, because it is so random, so far reaching and connected with a lot more insecurity. An ailing company may fire people…that is something you can see coming, but what is happening right now is just senseless and not very smart. A lot of things will break and in the end people will die, many people will leave the country and the economy will tank.

While I can only guess, I think he/she meant that all the stupid things the government has done so far should not have come as a surprise to anyone. They announced most of it and even the things they kept “quiet” were pretty obvious. So government employees could have searched for alternative jobs beforehand and kind of “brace for impact” and unions could have planned a coordinated response to bullshit firings. Lawsuits could have (and actually have) been prepared so that it would not take months to react to all the stupid stuff that’s happening now.

Or maybe I am completely wrong :)

Bold statement. Do you have any examples? I would disagree, but maybe I just don’t quite understand what you meant.

Your feeling for how much things will/should cost will be completely off. Some things will seem crazy expensive, while others are really cheap.

Others said it, but I’ll say it as well: Germans tend to be very friendly, but are not very open. It takes time for us to open up. In my experience, a lot of things (emotions for example) aren’t said directly but are said jokingly.

Germans tend to be direct and use short sentences. Something that can be answered with just one word, WILL be answered with just one word. That can sometimes seem like a harsh reaction to a simple question but really isn’t meant as such.

If you’re still in school, it can be very different from what you know. Same goes for university. There are a lot less activities at school (clubs), but that frees up time to do things outside of school. So you have to organize you free-time by yourself and you might just spend that with friends.

I guess you will also be walking more. This is totally based on my stereotype of American car-focused city building. The larger the cities are in Germany, the worse they get for driving with cars. All larger cities have a good public transport system and that naturally means that one has to walk more (to/from stations). I noticed that myself, when I moved from the countryside to the city.

I hate typing on my phone and English is not my first language, so I guess the point I was trying to make didn’t quite make its way through. Sorry.

The more conservative party left the coalition because they value their “sovereignty” and “independence” and thus don’t want to play by the rules of the EU. To me they basically just trade one Dependance for another. They want to still be able to sell their oil to the EU, so they depend on EU’s demand for oil, but they don’t want to give up some freedoms even though that in turn would bolster their independence in the energy sector (even more local renewable electricity production, improved infrastructure that would be less susceptible to failure, and so on).

It just makes no sense to me. The EU directives are actually quite in line (or could easily be spun into line) with the ideals of traditionally conservative parties. Yet everywhere (not just Norway), those parties HATE renewable energy. And I think it is pretty clear that money is the big factor here…

Also…maybe I’m blind, but nowhere in the article it’s mentioned that Norway produces its energy with hydro?

I’m always surprised at what their argument is. “Don’t make us invest in cheap renewable energy that will make us independent from other countries”. Sure, they export quite a bit, but that makes your economy dependant on external demand. In all other areas the right leaning parties want to sever themselves from outside influence, except when it involves money…

But he hates being made fun of. He wants people to be angry with him, because that shows him he has some form of power over them (withholding funding makes “the left” angry -> for him that’s good). And he loves to see himself as smart and strong. But if you ridicule him…that hits him.

If the patients hadn’t been transgender, this would not have been dropped. It is illegal to share that data no matter what…

I would love to join, but the whole registration process fails at every turn. Mails aren’t sent, login pages just do refresh…please…just let me iiiiinn

I think this is true for computers that are in danger of being stolen. Laptops or PCs in dorms or other shared living spaces. But I live in a relatively secure area, burglaries are very rare and my PC never leaves the building. So the benefits of encryption are pretty much negligible.

Eigentlich hatte die Debatte beendet sein müssen, als die Betreiber gesagt haben, dass das keinen Sinn ergibt.

Die Tatsache, dass wir eben jederzeit Strom aus unseren Nachbarländern einkaufen können zeigt doch eindeutig, dass die Versorgungssicherheit gewahrt ist.

Oh nein…der Preis steigt etwas! Dann nimmt man etwas Geld in die Hand und unterstützt die privaten Haushalte.

Allerdings stimme ich zu, dass die Preissteigerungen schnell kamen und auch Unternehmen nicht die Chance hatten das alleine abzufedern. Das bedeutet auch sie haben eine Unterstützung verdient.

Woher soll das Geld kommen? Es werden viele Dinge subventioniert, die wenig Sinn ergeben. Es werden Unternehmen und Privatpersonen nicht besteuert, die mehr als genug haben. Wir haben eine soziale Marktwirtschaft und das bedeutet halt auch das man solidarisch ist und alle, ALLE! mit anpacken, wenn das Land mal schwierigere Zeiten durchmacht.

All of which cost more than a 100000 dollars but were still somehow bought on a whim for that one experiment that one time…
