I give you that. However, I feel like the amount of times this happens here feels far more natural compared to reddit before the APIcalypse. Like, depending on the community, visiting a bar can be either peaceful, fun and full of interesting conversations or end I a bar fight at worst.

Reddit felt more like a completely overcrowded mass bar full of assholes in comparison. You had to actively look for the nice circles usually and hope they don't implode quickly.

Me too is not that interested in most communities here. All you have to change is the default setting in your profile to "subscribed" instead of "local". That's the same mechanism as reddit had.

But yes, the amount of discussion here is limited. But not in a bad way. More like, concentrated rather than spread out. If you want to give it a try, go here:

https://browse.feddit.de/

Just look up the most active community for your specific interest and hope for the best. Worked for my few interests.

All kinds of Sugar and Starches are alcohol for your body. Keep up with that japanese course. Invest in Crypto hard just like you wanted to but thought it was expensive and risky at the time. Keep crypto, no sell, until a super rich publicly well known guy suddenly invests, then leave crypto days later asap.

I hate this fact about Whatsapp (Asia same story, different clients).

40 seconds startup?! What? Should open within like 2-3 Seconds. 5 if your system RAM is maxing out.

Abou locally developed extensions, you will need to follow the specific developer directions on that. But if you code, you should've figured that out already. If not, you tried doing shady things, which Firefox rightfully blocked.

Ist echt, gibt auch n Aushang dazu.

Nah, prices have gone up considerably. Generally around 250~350€ per year per Server depending on your deal for Redhat. SUSE is about the same, both are currently recalculating, most likely upping the price. HPC-nodes cost less (somewhere around 30-80€/year). But they make it all way too complicated by binding license costs to CPU count for example and now after abandoning that to other nonsense. Lead to a brief popularity of dual-core servers a few years ago, since Oracle licenses were all CPU-core count based. Don't know how that is currently going.

Also it depends on other stuff like support levels and whatnot. We once had to get an expert on licensing costs to get an offer for licensing a few servers and even these people could not respond immediately and had to go through several documents to calculate the price - note those weren't resellers, those were from the Company themselves. I had to stiffle a few laughes during that conference...

Been there, it's not fun. Transitioned the new HPC cluster from redhat to suse. Switched to Centos after a few years on suse due to pricing and their software becoming more and more unstable. The following cluster got CentOS from the start and then got migrated to rocky after they switched Centos to rolling release. It's not easy running this stuff...

I agree. Still fun nonetheless, seeing some of the biggest players banding together against a competitor.

It's still an issue though for mainly science areas with large HPC clusters who need stable supported OS releases for extremely expensive specialty software. Looking at the pricing, Redhat now wants to take quite a large chunk in licensing fees out of science budgets.

SUSE and Oracle formed a pitchfork mob against Redhat yesterday.

Das hoffe ich sehr, damit die Spastis, die ich täglich dabei sehe wie sie die Rettungsgasse im Berufsstau dicht machen es mitbekommen. Das gilt auch für die LKWs, die in einem verdammten Stau auf ner Dreispurigen einfach mal die Mittelspur nehmen und so die Rettungsgasse dichtmachen weil die einfach zu breit sind und daher fast nichts von hinten mitbekommen können.

Es ist immer sehr deprimierend, wenn man Platz macht und hinter jemanden herfährt, der auf der Mittleren Spur weit links fährt um zu sehen, wann es denn weiter geht und so die Retter abblockt, die verdammt nochmal Menschenleben retten. Da krieg ich so'n Hals von.

Hab echt Angst vor dem Tag, an dem ich hoffen muss, dass Retter mich durch so ne Gasse rechtzeitig erreichen, bevor ich elendig verrecke, weil jemand schneller sonstwohin fahren will.
