  • I think it’s not natural, rather an illustration of covert media propaganda being very powerful.

    That the point…

    In reality nobody loses faith in democracy. They simply criticise the application/implementation (specifically the EU one that isn’t very democratic in the first place and the total lack of consequences for lying politicians).

    But the decline of democracy has another facet… the deteriation of media quality and information being replaced by attention seeking and framed clickbait bullshit. Which is what brings you this rediculous misinterpretation of the cited study.

    Or: reading this article should not tell you that people lose faith in democracy but should make you lose faith in journalistisc standards at the Guardian.

    The problem is that the people lacking those technical skills are struggling with Windows, too, but got brain-washed into believing that this is how it’s supposed to be. And they are somehow also the ones defending Windows bullshit the loudest because else they would need to acknowledge being wrong.




  • What do you mean by poor long term stability? It’s a rolling release. I run the same installation for basically forever, while fixed releases’ life-time is measured in just a few years before you lose support and need to do a full distro upgrade… which rarely seems to work without problems.

    PS: I just looked it up. The first date in my pacman log in from 2014…


  • Also so sehr ich mich selbst über das eklatante Versagen der SPD (und das seit Jahren schon) aufregen kann…

    Womit gewinnt man in diesem Land denn Vertrauen? Wenn ich mir die Umfragen so anschaue doch offenbar mit Lügen, Korruption, Ablehnung von Recht und Grundgesetz und populistischem Geschrei. Läuft doch für die C*U.

    In dem Zusammenhang ist der Artikel dann auch nichts anderes als absurd, wenn er auf von der SPD gebrochene Wahlversprechen abzielt, während der andere Koalitionspartner Kernversprechen des Wahlkampfs schon Stunden nach der Wahl und lange vor jeder Regeirungsverantwortung verworfen hat.

    Oder anders ausgedrückt: Wenn von zwei offensichtlichen Lügnern, nur einer erfolgreich ist, die Ursachen beim Lügen an sich zu suchen, ist mehr als abwegig…



  • What I cited was growth in May (with other brands having numbers from 3.3 to 6.3…) which then was followed by the statement that “Chinese car brands were the main driver of growth in May” with no numbers given. And that makes no sense.

    Nobody doubts that the yearly growth is impressive (out of context that is - see below…) but that’s not what the “in May” statement is about.

    Also we can find yearly numbers for registered EVs further down in the article. And sure… BYD’s +158% or Xpeng’s +350% for example look impressive. But then there are Skoda (+182%), Ford (+280%), Citroen (+411%), Porsche (+204%) with several of them having completely new entries in 2025’s most-registered top25… unlike those chinese brands. (Side note: the post’s description talks about increased market share “led by MG & BYD”… MG actually lost 40% in registered EV volume year to year.)

    So I still see this as manufacturing hype about chinese EVs when in reality growth of chinese brands just reflects the growth of the electric share (massively for those bringing brand new models to that quickly changing market) in the total car market, with multiple European brands showing comparable (or better) performance.

    File permissions…

    allowed to execute=1, allowed to write=2, allowed to read=4

    grouped by owner/group/everyone.

    So one of your own files you have full access to while users in your usergroup are only allowed to read it and nobody else has any permissions would have: 740 (read+write+execute / read / none).
