I am but a cog in a machine. A lazy one though.
I’m not forced to, but occasionally my job kinda requires it so I dualboot (most of my coworkers who are on linux run a windows virtual machine when they need it).
But my previous job required windows due to all the industry specific software only working on windows. No chance of getting that to work on linux sadly. Then I just used windows at work. It’s always my employer’s hardware anyway and I like to keep work and free-time separate so it was ok.
For those who are too lazy to check what people here in the comments are saying, here’s what happpens when you open the page in reader mode:
I’m happy someone is pointing this out. There is so much trash out there that is just maximised for “citation count” because that’s how you get recognition in academia.
One more thing for folks who don’t know: peer reviewed doesn’t always mean someone actually verified shit, let alone read it all.
I’m not saying don’t believe scientists or that the whole research field is a hoax, I just am severely disappointed in the broader scientific community.

Curious to see whether they combine HBO and Netflix. In the article netflix answers in an ambiguous way.
I bet they are trying to calculate whether this will bring in less money if they combine them, because they can’t just jack up the price of netflix subscription to double immediately after the merging of the two platforms. Many have both Netflix and HBO subscription so it might actually reduce the revenue.
Can’t believe they are playing that game. You’d think in the commission, where many are long-time politicians and most of them studied political science I assume, would know a bit of history and how playing these games never leads to anything but the opponent wanting more and more.
I sure hope they are not just thinking they can sit this one out and compromise until Trump retires/dies. Maybe the next one is even worse.
I want to play a game. All commit info and branch stats are hidden.
Spineless cowards. WTF is wrong with people in the commission?! WTF is wrong with their advisors?! Are they treating this job like a temporary internship where you just make connections and get a nice fucking line on your CV without causing too much noise? Just keep others happy and naively believe anything some conman in a fancy 2000e suit says on a fancy dinner they paid?
No, haven’t tested bazzite. I’m sure it’s great as I’ve heard good things about it. My comment was just a joke comment since we are in a meme community (but I do actually use mint, btw)
Don’t know what’s all the fuss about (I use mint btw)
That’s a nice tip, have to try that out. Thanks!
Vinegar based cleaner for everything and you are good. Recommend a separate, dedicated mirror cleaner for mirrors though. Clean weekly to reduce the need to scrub with more powerful stuff.
Winpunch already listed some, but my favourites are at Karlsplatz and Altes AKH inner yard and highly recommend those. There are quite a lot of christmas markets and I don’t know all of them.
A tip: bring cash and go during the day. The markets get quite packed in the evening.
There’s quite a few inside Vienna, most of them really nice and pretty.
I’m not going to push anyone who uses a secure decentralized FOSS chat already to signal, but someone who uses telegram/viber/whatsapp is easier to get gradually on signal, which is super low effort compared to the ones you mentioned.
I’ve tried. I’m happy that I got friends and family to move from SMS and WhatsApp to Signal. Some I got to move to e.g. matrix but that’s only a few.
Just my two cents since you asked. I agree with you but I don’t want perfect to be the enemy of good.
That sounds like a nice stack! And true, self hosting is really nice. Just wanted to give options if you don’t feel like getting into self hosting.
Nevertheless, good luck on your privacy journey! I’m working on it too!
I had not heard of ubicloud, that’s pretty cool! Thanks for the tip!
And sure:
I don’t self host it, I got managed owncloud space from a domain and web host provider.
I manage my own VPS that I got from them but the cloudspace came extra with buying the domain + email services (I’ve managed email server at my job and no way in hell will I do that for myself, too much headache).
So basically, in short, I have a managed email + owncloud space (just 5gb, don’t honestly need more) from a commercial provider and just use owncloud app on my phone and PC to sync folders on both. I keep my encrypted joplin notes and (encrypted by default) keepass database on this cloud. Owncloud takes care of syncing and I just use Joplin and KeePass on both devices and set them to use the files in owncloud folder. Never had an issue in 2 years with anything.
Technically my provider could scan my stuff, but they won’t get anything out of joplin notes or keepass.
Your idea for a setup sounds way more private, but i think for my usecase I’ve been happy since it’s so low effort and still does what I want it to do.
I have seen on lemmy people recommend syncthing (https://syncthing.net/) for keepass, which directly synchronizes a folder between devices without a middleman if you wanr. But everytime you want to sync you need to have both devices on for that as there is no automatic middleman that is always available. Maybe that could be done with a raspberry pi?
Anyway: you can easily set this up with proton if you already have proton cloud no?
Didn’t see this comment but: I trust enough my cloud provider + the database file is encrypted with the masterpassword you set for your keepass.
I also use this cloud to host my Joplin notes, which are also E2EE (joplin supports it) so even if my cloud provider would take a peek it’s all encrypted.
Was about to comment: it’s afraid!
