Just set the timezone environmental parameter accordingly. Librewolf might pretend to be in UTC but doesn’t care if the time given by your system is wrong to get the correct time again.

Oh, they really fixed this.Didn’t notice as Librewolf is only my backup.

And with “dependent” they mean, the US and Russia had the free capacities, so it was slightly cheaper use them… Already ten years ago Galileo satellites where launched by Ariane5 or Soyuz in parallel (where Ariane5 transported twice the amount in one launch as Soyuz, or as Falcon9 in later years for that matter…).

It’s really sad how “dependence” has become a totally hollow term.

Yeah, actually just minutes after this comment I saw the latest joke at Spiegel writing about far-right European parties and the AfD in Germany in particular building up connections with MAGA in the US… while just -and totally concidently of course- forgetting to say a single word about the fact the the governing CDU did exactly the same and there are several loud massive MAGA-fanbois in their leading ranks right now.

That’s not journalism. That’s a laughable “Look over there! Nothing happening here”-diversion.

Sorry, but no.

There is nothing left even remotely resembling journalism and they only focus on Trump so they can ignore the MAGA friends in Germany’s goverment doing variations of the exact same shit.

Joke aside…

Who has not reached that “just say yes so they shut up”-point with some people?

Wants to be Pro but doesn’t even do it recursive…

Close. The correct answer is: “Lol! No! Fuck off!”

it’s quite obvious to everyone, including the press and citizens, that the current implementation is not sustainable long-term.

No, that’s just the neolibaral capitalist propaganda talking. The actual unsustainable part are the less than 1% sucking up most of the money while the remaining fraction is supposed to sustain social, health and pension system from their stagnating wages.

It’s actually very easy to look up facts and numbers. The rate between people working and people sustained by them has basically not changed in nearly a century. Sure, children/pensioneer rate changed but that isn’t actually a problem as long as the general rate keeps steady. And as long as the workers don’t suddenly become much less productive of course.

Funnily the systems worked in the 1950s, in the 1970s, in the 1990s… and then with -as mentioned- roughly the same amount of workers in the total population AND a massively increasing productivity (GDP per capita increased to ~x2,5 in the last 50 years; naturally caused by the exact same progress that also raises life expectancy) it suddenly didn’t work anymore and we have to constantly increase the quota of wages workers have to spend on health and social costs. (And the same is true for taxes: how can countries that build infrastructure once fail to even sustain them nowadays?) So what actually changed?

The aswer is quite easy. Up until the 1990s (in Germany… but we see the same bullshit happening in other countries, sometimes a few years earlier, sometimes a bit later) wages and pensions kept in pace with the GDP. And then neoliberalists sold the fairy tale of privatisation and other means of not only funneling money to the top but also stopping to tax that money. And while wages stagnated the whole system was still linked those wages.

Seriously… production per capita is high as never before yet -magically- neither health, social and pension contributions based on those wages nor basic public functions based on taxes are sustainable anymore? If you seriously believe the constant propaganda of how you (or better those indolent youngsters) are just lazy and need to remember how to be productive, how <insert whoever is in the government right now) is just wasting money for nonsense, and -most importantly!- how we only need to get rid of all those lazy immigrants exploiting us, I have this really fancy bridge here that…

Als Anschauungsmaterial:

Wenn du also das nächste mal in einem unbedeutend scheinenden Nebensatz das Wort “Binnennachfrage” hörst, denk einfach mal darüber nach, wieso sich Menschen in einem der reichsten Länder der Welt nichts mehr leisten können, während die Milliardäre im Land ihr Vermögen alle paar Jahre (in Krisenzeit tatsächlich noch schneller) verdoppeln.

When you say “consensus” do you mean an actual one (as in: the population agreeing) or a manufactured one (as in politicians and the media drowning us in the narrative 24/7)?

Because the government that just increased debt by about a trillion needed for investments (which of course aren’t spend for their intended purpose) doesn’t have any money until we finally dismantle social security.

And so they can sadly do nothing because they don’t have the manpower to investigate anthing or enforce any legislation (for complicated reasons I’m too dumb to explain this even includes tax investigators who would bring in ~10 times their cost…).

I mean seriously… it’s already so much work to keep all actual issues out of the widely consumed media and constantly invent new populist narratives as a diversion should something slip through. We really can’t expect even more hard work from them.

But there will be no next step from the “we refuse to do anything (but enriching ourselves)”-government voted in by the “everything has to stay the same”-morons.

At best enough people actually care to trigger yet another loud populist diversion.

You do a massive disservice to the overwhelming majority of computer users.

By explicitly telling the rest why Bazzite probably isn’t for them?

yes, it’s linux…

and never bothers me

For some time… but nowadays I would never go for anything not rolling release anymore.

Because those distro upgrades were traditionally when something broke (or there were just too many changes requiring my attention at the same time), triggering a fresh install… usually combined with trying another distro.

Yeah, sure.

A brain-washed moron alternating between insane “USA!”-cheers and supporting a small German party trying to unify covidiots, anti-vaxxers, conspiracy theorists, esotericists, populists, and anti-semites (icing on the cake are some of their former candidates convicted for membership in a right-wing terrorist organisation) wants to tell me I’m falling for propaganda and desinformation while parroting MAGA narratives about Europes self-destructive course (often even phrased clearly to emulate nazi speech…) and how undemocratic European government manipulate their citizens. What’s next? Arguing for a US military special operation to free us Europeans from the evil leftist governments suppressing us?

🤣

Same… but I also remember a single outage in the last 15 or so years.

At least in my experience the chances that I move or replace hardware are much higher than the chances for a power outage.

And I thought the attacks to scare stupid people into voting for screaming right-wing morons in those months before the last election (and suddenly stopping after) were done with cars and knives instead of paper…

After those nice photos from the White House I was sure the US goverment had abolished the flag code as woke already.
