  • "Earning a living"

    Jump

  • Deserving to live and surviving are not the same. In the natural condition if you don't gather or hunt, you have no food. You die. You do not deserve anything.

    Even in society you are not entitled to others working for you. However, in a civilised society we should provide for those incapable to provide for themself due to ethics.

  • Pebble Watch Software Is Now 100% Open Source

    Jump

  • Either you are misunderstanding something or I am. I don't think Gewährleistung applies here because it is not sold to the German market but instead you import it from the American market.

  • I get baited every time :( thinking "Ah! Finally a watch I can buy!" Then I, again, see the 30 day warranty (that would be illegal in my country) and remember that this is not a good buy for me. Good luck to all buyers.

  • Most, if not all car companies collect and profile your data, how can I improve my privacy when buying a modern car?

  • Yea, CCC actually has a huge problem by being too ethical. Apparently they had cases were the data protection authority did not force companies to disclose the leak because access by CCC does not constitute access by a malicious third party; absolutely bonkers. Just because the malicious party didn't open their mouth doesn't mean they haven't accessed the data, you pigeon.

  • Volkswagen (VW) had a massive scandal that showed how dangerous this is. By leaking driving behaviour, VW leaked hidden military bases, politicians likely visiting prostitutes and more. Lucky for them ethical hackers (CCC) found that and did not use the data.

  • Valve is about to win the console generation

    Jump

  • Fair. I am not sure what that means but probably: Valve PC Sales > Each Separate Console Sale

    Yea, that's unlikely but not impossible.

  • a sizable spot is a win no?

  • Valve's new Steam Machine and Steam Frame and implications for Linux

    Jump

  • The frames might be the first VR I buy.

  • Hungry for knowledge, are you?

  • Do you prefer to work alone or in a group?

    Jump

  • Alone. 0%.

  • Out of ten, how would you rate your ability to empathize with people with opposing viewpoints?

    Jump

  • 9.5 However, just because I can doesn't mean I have to. I had discussions with a traditional Nazi, with an antisemite, with Corona deniers, ... I've studied philosophy which teaches you to take other viewpoints to understand the inconsistencies.

    But doing it for a long time is extremely exhausting which is why I refuse to discuss renewable energy with my father; who's not categorically wrong on that topic but narrow minded and only educates himself as much as needed to believe some convenient half-truths.

  • From YouTube to PeerTube

    Jump

  • The main issue is that there are not enough users and not enough creators. Also, instance space is often limited.

    I sometimes take part in a German ttrpg streaming group and I thought about convincing them to also upload to peertube but most instances that are focused on that topic simply don't interested in hosting 300+ new videos that are each 3h+.

    Apart from that platforms like twitch "guarantee" a small revenue stream and YouTube a large audience. PeerTube is harder to sell both in regards of outreach and revenue. However, I think if you are producing for the English market PeerTube can be very interesting revenue wise as some PeerTube creators report that they get more donations per viewer than on other platforms.

  • What's the last song you found that was so good you had to let it play on repeat a couple times?

    Jump

  • https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=dv-1JmzU0Pw

    It is a german song to rile up oldfolk that feels threaten by the young. It just really hit home as my father is a big sceptic of renewable energy and repeats again and again that we will see how this will ruin the economy. I am just exhausted

  • The history of electoralism

  • Open source smart watches

    Jump

  • They have a warranty of 30 days for manufacturing errors... Wouldn't be legal if they would sell in the EU. Apart from that sounds interesting.

  • The history of electoralism

    Jump

  • I really like the idea of randomly elected representatives. Sure, they will try to better their situation for afterwards but with enough corruption control (which is probably easier to implement), this will only ensure that they support their kind of workers a bit more than the rest.

  • Electoralism == Democracy

  • Just use cURL

    Jump

  • I love it that the page is designed to advertise multiple pieces of software but stopped at curl ^^

    More coming soon. Or not. I don't owe you shit.

    ffmpeg is definitely also a candidate for this.

  • First time posting here — how does Lemmy feel compared to Reddit for you?

    Jump
    • Much higher quality interactions
    • Lot less random bot posts or subs that are 99% bots/trash stories
    • Not enough content to always keep me engaged when I am looking to mindlessly read some things
    • Many communities are mostly dead. Even if you want to revive them, no mods makes that difficult
    • culture is completely different
