  • Learning a new language is easy!

  • Hilfeleistungs-Löschgruppen-Fahrzeug is a very odd composite word for Germans too. It's not commonly used, this is probably "Amtsdeutsch“, a bureaucratic way of naming things as accurately as possible. Mostly used like that by government institutions and Microsoft help documents in german.

    See also: Umschaltfeststelltaste (Caps Lock) und Gruppenrichtlinienbearbeitungsprogramm (Group policy Editor).

    Shudders. This is why I (as a native German speaker) prefer english documentation.

  • YouTuber LegalEagle sues PayPal over 'sleeping leech' Honey extension | TechCrunch

    Jump

  • I just checked the original video. It works a little bit differently than plain URL replacement. They open another tab in the background and then send a manipulated URL to get the affiliate cookie set to their own. Guess it's for the courts to decide if that is a legal practice or not. But to me it seems that the malicious extension sends a manipulated URL to the server pretending to do that on user's behalf, without his knowledge. That is classic malware behavior.

  • What was the worst love triangle you were involved in?

  • Potato chips and chocolate. It was difficult but necessary to have them both at the same time

  • It's more than that, at least from a EU perspective. Don't know what is legal in the US, but manipulating URLs in an obviously malicious way and without the user's explicit knowledge and consent would be highly illegal here.

  • Is there a search engine that blocks websites known to create low effort/AI generated articles?

    Jump

  • I don't know. Maybe Google is actively limiting results for Startpage. When I don't find what I'm looking for in Startpage I switch to Google and boom, adequate search result. I refuse to permanently go back to Google though.

  • I'm using Startpage too, but I have a feeling that the search result quality had a massive drop lately.

  • Elon Musk insults German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier – DW – 12/31/2024

    Jump

  • So, the comment in question is"Steinmeier is an anti-democratic tyrant!". What the muskrat probably doesn't know: The German president has only representative powers, unlike the US president. The German president can't be a tyrant cause he has basically no power.

    Musk has no clue about German politics and it is pretty obvious he is talking out of his ass

  • there is just something about FLOSS updates

  • Some NT net utilities even had BSD info in their binaries.

  • Sooo, does the crocodile face to the left or to the right?

  • My guess is grading. When you're grading you need to supply a different amount of power to the arms depending on the angle. But I'm no expert in this. Seems to be the standard euro configuration and I was looking for this to setup a simulator

  • Fox News host gives Trump voters 1 huge reality check: ‘Let’s be realistic’

    Jump

  • You're right that regard. I was simplyfing the matter by only using wages as the primary factor. Of course it is a combination of factors which drive production costs, many of which you just explained. However, the end result is the same: Building products on shore is expensive. Someone has to pay the price.

  • Musk wants to abolish consumer agency that has been a ‘model of efficiency’

    Jump

  • I remember last time Trump was in office. There were massive tariffs on european products as well. There are no communist countries in the European Union. Trump and his gang openly push the "America first" narrative and that very obviously means that every other country in the global market is under attack, even those who were traditionally viewed as allies. Communism is not the issue here.

    We'll see if the US manages to bully the world into submission but I have my doubts. A free global market is bound by capitalist mechanics. If the US is not an attractive trade partner the export profits will be made elsewhere.

  • Musk wants to abolish consumer agency that has been a ‘model of efficiency’

    Jump

  • I very much doubt that tariffs and pissing off basically everyone outside if the US will help a goal of a global free market.

  • Fox News host gives Trump voters 1 huge reality check: ‘Let’s be realistic’

    Jump

  • You'll be surprised how expensive everything is to build if you pay domestic wages instead of buying things dirt cheap from other countries where wages are low due to slave-like working conditions. This is probably what Trump wants to establish in the US, but when other factors like housing, food etc are already way more expensive than they are in those countries, this creates a poverty hellscape for y'all. The result will be that people can't even afford to live at the standard of a chinese factory worker. Enjoy.

  • Is there any proof behind the idea that "reddit is filled with bots"?

    Jump

  • Oh no I might be a bot and didn't know it yet

  • German populists' rise concerns EU parliament head

    Jump

  • The BSW is neither left nor progressive. It's a populist attempt to steal votes from both the left and the right with political views taken from both ends. And that might actually work out for them, because people looking to "protest vote" might view BSW as a less extreme alternative to AFD or a less left leaning Die Linke. Which is wrong in any case. Having the party leader name in the name of the party might give a hint on what this party is about.
