  • Pandoras box is ripped to shreds...

  • Believe me, as a German, that pisses me off as well...

  • As much as I'd like to, I don't try starlink for the exact same reason. (Although Starlink has other reasons why I'm not going to give them any money)

  • Yeah, I have to vehemently disagree with that one. Rick is anything but a fascist and very different to Elon...

  • That's not entirely true, Norway and Australia are the two on top of that list, the U.S. comes in fourth. I believe it would be possible to reduce the U.S. part even further and I also think it's inevitable it happens, because Norway and Australia don't slap tariffs on it - so they are going to be cheaper as well.

  • Germany's Election and people are relatively robust. The efforts Russia pooled in to the AfD are tremendous and they resulted in mostly nothing. The resulting chaos in the rest of the parties are mostly their own doing. The SPD and CDU bickering and fighting stupid battles that do not need to be fought, the greens not being united and still trying to make many things outright illegal, the FDP not getting rid of Lindner and the Linke/BSW being way to far up that Russian ass came about without considerable effort from the Russians. Also, Germany has the same issue like all countries these days, "the common people" do not want to deal with politics

  • They can just shift countries. 32% of Bluesky users are from Brazil, ~ 7% from Japan, ~ 4% from the UK and 2% from Germany.

  • You should loose the comma, then i agree with you. An authoritarian controlled economy will fail. A controlled economy is an absolut must.Without rules, that's anarchism. That will fail either. Case in point: The USA. None of the rules are enforced and capitalism gone wild just bought the government outright.

  • Name one. Price hikes are not illegal in any country in Europe. Changing prices after selling and other shady stuff is illegal in most European countries on the other hand, but this is not it. If the 55 were on sale before, a "sale" price can be axed as most see fit. This screams coincidence and bad luck to me.

  • To get ultra wealthy, you have to go over corpses and be radical and very detached from reality AND your own humanity and humility. Because if you're not, you'll stop yourself and give back eventually.

  • Didn't know that exists, that's pretty neat! However, not really what i'm looking for in this case, because i don't want to use a device other than the printer itself. With scan to folder, you just set the MFP to scan something to an FTP, SMB or whatever folder. The ET-4850 unfortunately doesn't support that, so i'm looking for an alternative...i could just run a Windows VM on my Proxmox and let that do the "Scan-To" stuff, but that's pretty resource intensive... But the more i look in to it, it seems there is no solution (except a Windows VM) for this, as SANE only "speaks to the MFP" and the MFP can't talk to SANE via WSD...

  • That's none encrypted and i don't really want to push some sensitive invoice data unencrypted to somewhere else...

  • For that, the PC has to be on. I'm using that as well, but that's not really what i want it to do in this case. For example...i get a an invoice in the mail, i open the mail and the Epson is in the hallway downstairs, right next to the main door. I put an ASN/Barcode on the original document concerning the user paperpless should file that document under, scan the document and put it in the loose filing bin...etc. Basically, i do not want to have to use the PC.

  • Ballots have just "vanished", due to being challenged by the Vigilante stuff. According to Greg Pallast, investigative journalist with the BBC, there have been over 800k provisional ballots that have not been counted because they have been thrown out. He even has the exact names of people, who's ballots have been thrown out.

    If it wasn't so dire, I'd find it extremely fascinating...

  • You don't have to fake ballots. You can just throw absentee ballots out, after them being challenged...which happens since 2000 (it's apparently one of the reasons Bush won), this time however there have been over 800k ballots that have been thrown out...in swing states alone.

    Considering the margins are so slim, a few 100k challenged voters here and there...and you have "We don't need your votes, we have enough" https://youtu.be/X3hXeEiFcJM?si=-lJLqmIDZM4PewcT

  • I think that's all BS. However, what is not BS is that ballots have just "vanished", due to being challenged by the Vigilante stuff. According to Greg Pallast, investigative journalist with the BBC, there have been over 800k provisional ballots that have not been counted because they have been thrown out. He even has the exact names of people, who's ballots have been thrown out.

  • It's not only a political struggle. Working conditions are tremendously better in Europe, Environmental Protection as well. Manufacturing photovoltaics takes a huge pile of chemicals that need to be handled properly to not cause any harm to the environment - China neither cares nor has any other incentives to actually do this properly, which is exactly why they are so cheap. Theres also the issue of poor quality, that if you're manufacturing something that can have a significant impact on the environment, it should "count" and not be waste 10 years later.

    Not only that, China's subsidies are utterly unfair.

    Destroying the environment in one part of the world to "save" a different one due to climate change is just ridiculously stupid and simple minded.

  • Those controllers are fortunately not what TSMC makes.

  • Do not forget, the Germans didn't have Weapons at that time AND there was way less to actually organize - you can fight this! And do not let people tell you, Germans just did go with it.
