BMW lobbies against non-car based infrastructure and car industry regulation here in Germany. Biggest shareholder is the Quandt family, who are descendant from literal Nazis, and now use part of their billions to fund the conservatives (at least they aren’t giving it to the far-right. Yet.)
So yeah, fuck Elon, but fuck BMW too.
Experienced that recently. Every part of the backup was fine, except for the one with all the 2fa codes. Fun times.
Dunno, haven’t had one in many years. Don’t think I had one longer than a few minutes … ever. Guess I’ll find out if it ever comes to that.
Fun cat, sure, but tf is that Gucci/star-of-David flooring.
Delivery trucks, full stop, around here. Though some stop on the street instead, which I prefer, but car drivers usually don’t.
In the end, I find it hard to be angry at overworked, underpaid people, who have to work around infrastructure that clearly hasn’t been planned with their job in mind.
At least UPS is switching to large bike-like vehicles around here. Hope that trend continues.
Work in Germany, both in some retail jobs as a student, as well as as a dev, sometimes in rather ‘fancy’ office environments. No one ever cared, though I only ever cursed about a situation, never a person.
Meh, I told myself I’d do it if I ever get disturbed by a call that isn’t important or interesting. Hasn’t happened yet.
Wasn’t euronews bought up by one of Orbans buddies?
I’d argue that the problem with non-physical releases is mainly conservation, and software pirates seem to have that covered for PC releases.
Now if you wanna buy a game, DRM free is of course preferable. I buy as much as I can from gog, because I don’t want to blindly trust any corporation, regardless of their past record. After all, valve is set up in a way that gives them all the leverage.
I want to buy the whole of Switzerland.
It took them years to prepare that operation. It was against Hezbollah, not Hamas, because they saw them as the bigger threat.
The war in Gazah is barbaric, but the sensible immediate alternative would have been a very targeted operation to find and rescue the hostages, not something like this.
Is the VR streaming in the Local net (PC to Headset)? Just run the WiFi router without plugging it into the wall. Connect only the pc and the headset.
Also, appart from that, to use more wired devices, maybe use an unmanaged switch. Don’t think that does anything forbidden here.
Had one of those land on my leg in Japan. Seemed chill. Guess I was lucky it didn’t sting.
900 days in my ass
Seems a bit long, but I’m not one to complain.
Hey, Will Wood, nice.
Like, it’s just Design. Different car makes and years have different design languages. Also, they usually have a big shiny logo that tells you the make, so you can go “huge Audi saloon” -> “A8”.
Whenever I’m in Munich, I see a lot of BMW test vehicles, with the new parts partially camouflaged. I never really liked them, but they’re getting worse really rapidly now. Their new SUV looks like it’s a cyberpunk parody of an overly aggressive car.
It’s been a while since I regularly used a car, but I remember the automatics my father had having some sort of logic that shifted up when driving at a constant speed, than back down when wanting to accelerate.
Now those where fancy pants Systems (I think they called them 7G-Tronic), but this was also over 10 years ago, and such logic doesn’t strike me as overly complicated, so I’m surprised there’s current cars with static shift speeds.
YT App patched with revanced still works for me, and the app uses less battery for me than the browser version. Privacy wise, the browser is presumably better, though.
My home page looks the same either way, though.
Just ordered another CPU from them. Downside is that there isn’t any modern AMD desktop platform that works with coreboot, which seems to be the only workable way to deactivate the Management Engine/Platform Security Processor after boot.
Was really considering to swap to Intel for that, but got a good deal on a Ryzen 9 that fits in my socket, so…
