The claim to have “nothing to hide” was not just born our of ignorance, but also out of comfort - to not having to do anything about it.

Now that even the last one accepted that they do indeed have something to hide, but in order to justify their own inaction, it’s labeled as inevitable: privacy is not real.

They are lying to themselves, because doing otherwise would mean they have to admit being wrong.

A hundred euro is quite a difference. Didn’t expect it to be that much, tbh.

The only consolation is that, with the discounter sets, you will get something that has been tried and tested and everything is according to the relevant technical standards. Should be, anyway.

Any of the Discounters, really. ALDI, Lidl, Netto, etc have regular offers in their online shops.

Fedora KDE.

I was happily using Windows 10 until a few months ago, but needed to build a new PC. I got a glimpse of Windows 11 on a friend’s laptop and didn’t like it. So I asked my Linux-friend which distribution he would recommend to someone who wants to try Linux, but doesn’t want to stray too far away from the windows look and feel.

The cult is attached to Trump, yes. But when he dies his followers won’t suddenly wake up from their madness and flock behind a “normal candidate”.

They will still go for the crazy ones who act and talk the way Trump did. There may not be a second Trump, but they are lost nevertheless.

Because people who never needed to use an annoying thing like to imagine and romantize how they would use it. Completely ignoring reality.

They shouldn’t worry so much about why the original satellite is in a new orbit. They should worry about the indistinguishable replica which took its place.

It’s not just. He should be locked up for his crimes. If people would want him released, they’d have to vote for a candidate who promises to do that. Just being a promising candidate isn’t a reason not to be prosecuted. There is simply no law for that.

The justice system is being intimidated by an angry mob into waiting out the situation. This is against everything what the justice system is supposed to do.

It’s not the will of “the people”, it’s the will of a minority. He HAS been voted out. Courts should indeed be more powerful than that.

I understand your viewpoint, but disagree.

By that argument any criminal ever could argue against prosecution because they intend to run for a public office. Ridiculous exaggeration of course, but if Trump gets this chance, everyone else should too.

You really took the downvotes with grace.

My so called broccoli-potato-gratin with pork neck includes quite an amount of cream, salt, bouillion cubes and cheese. My wife doesn’t know and it will stay that way.

The real question is: if Obama gave Trump an obviously terrible plan, with the goal to let as many people die as possible, would Trump have gone out of his way to save each and everyone - simply out of spite for Obama?

Of course he wouldn’t have, but I like the idea.

13% of Democrats agree with Trump on that. What the actual fuck?

No surprise? People have nuanced views, different opinions, from left to center to right, even hardcore racist ones… and vote Democrats. Just as you could find conservatives who do not agree with the statement.

The statement is so vague and loaded and can be agreed or disagreed with from all kinds of people.

Edit: And yes it’s quite ironic(?) that so many people agree with this - in a country where people unironically track that they’re 12% German, or 20% Irish, or whatever.

I’m proud that in that time of crisis I was strong and served my country and fellow citizens, simply by staying home and not bothering anyone.

You are correct. The ICC warrant for Netanyahu needs yet to be approved by an ICC judge. For now it’s only a warrant request.

The same people who warned us about the dangers of the internet and not to believe everything, are now the ones readily falling for and spreading conspiracies and lies from social media.

It’s tragic.

Totally the same /s

Ukraine:

Russia: invades Ukraine, committing war crimes on a daily basis.

I don’t think you’re eligible to judge anyone’s cognitive abilities.

I never found anything which scratches the same itch Claymore does.

In my experience: the higher up the management chain, the higher the chance that they are just in for the bonuses - not for the company / industry. And those bonuses are always bound to these numbers which need to go up. When the numbers go down, these people are long gone.
