Ich hab da so eine wilde Idee. Der Staat koennte sich um die Wasserversorgung kuemmern, und zur Finanzierung dessen Geld von den Leuten und Firmen die im Land wohnen einsammeln. Wird natuerlich einige Zeit dauern um die Infrastruktur aufzubauen um von so vielen Leuten Geld einzusammeln, aber ich glaube langfristig koennte das echt nuetzlich sein.

Und wieso ist das eine Eilmeldung?

Applies the other way as well: A decade ago ended up not signing the contract after initially accepting the position at a major US chip makers EU office - with managers in the US - as it became clear during the process to get to that point there'll be cultural compatibility issue for my spoiled EU citizen ass, even though the office was in the EU, and they're forced to follow our labour laws.

If you're using Wayland, and are interested in being able to keep multiple versions installed in parallel: I have packages for emacs 28 (X11/GTK) and 29/30 (pgtk only, with warning on X11 disabled) here.

As I don't have the other toolkit variants packaged I don't have a need for that wrapper script, and emacs is just a link to the actual binary via the alternatives mechanism.

Ich plane, auf mein T430 Coreboot raufzutun. Scheitere aber immer noch daran, bei 1vyrain ein http-erreichbares Image to booten. Es lädt nicht, Nextcloud geht wohl nicht und ich hab absolut keine Ahnung von Webservern

Besorg dir nen externen Flasher - bevorzugt nen CH341a (ich hab praktisch alles durch - das Ding ist billig, und von den guenstigen Loesungen mit Abstand am zuverlaessigsten). Wenn was kaputt geht wirst du eh nen externen Flasher fuer Recovery brauchen, und damit kannst du dir dann von Anfang an alles einfacher machen: Mit externem Flashen kannst du die Lenovo-ROMs auslesen, am Rechner ME entfernen, modifizierte ROMs flashen, und dann Coreboot flashen.

I relatively recently switched from ion3 to hyprland - not having a predefined layout with rules where windows go was a bit weird at first, but got used to it pretty quickly. I have a bunch of rules about which desktop specific applications should go, but other than that just use dynamic splits at the cursor location, and then move windows around as needed.

Hier in Finnland hatten wir vor paar Jahren 15°C an Weihnachten mit Regen - genau gleiches Wetter wie an Mittsommer in dem Jahr.

Hinter der Terasse hat eine Blume im Garten geblueht, und eine der Erdbeerpflanzen hat versucht auszutreiben.

What annoys me about the various forms of package management that exist on Windows nowadays is that while Microsoft started embracing package management they didn't bother adding proper infrastructure to enable it. So yes, we now can pull stuff from a global catalog on Windows, and it more or less keeps track what is installed - but for a lot of stuff in the back it's still just wrapping traditional Windows installers (with funny errors thrown through the package manager when things go wrong), and there's no tracking of installed files.

I can't just list a package to see all files it claims to own - or the other way round, query a random file to see which package it belongs to. I'm typically using package managers way more to query stuff than to install - and on Windows one important tool still just doesn't exist.

Plus it's not a service you can typically afford to go down. Any emails you miss during that downtime are gone forever

The sending server will retry a few times, so you have at least a few days to bring it back. And if you prefer an additional fail-safe - adding a secondary MX somewhere else which will just store mails until the primary comes back is trivial.

I mainly got a steamdeck as the switches are occupied by the kids. For portability it is way worse than the switch - and the removable controllers on the switch are great, especially for some mukltiplayer games. I feel most of the games making proper use of those didn't make the jump from the wii, though - for movement games in front of the TV the wii is still regularly used. Switch mostly is used as handheld.

Because passwords are so critical I'd never give that to a third party.

Stuff like bitwarden is needlessly complicated, though - I nowadays have a vaultwarden instance for friends and family, but everything important is done via pass - which only needs a git server, which I have anyway.

I find it funny that a bunch of the simple basics are nowadays considered complicated. I've been doing my own mail and DNS for over two decades now, and don't see a reason for stopping. It is pretty low maintenance, and generally less headache than having someone else do it.
