  • Vogelaufkleber sind nutzlos, es muss ein engmaschiges streifenähnliches Muster sein, mit einem Streifenabstand, der kleiner ist, als der Vogel. Sonst versucht der halt, durch die vermeintliche Lücke zu fliegen.

  • "Being vegan is unnatural"

    Jump

  • By your logic, obligate carnivores would have the larger brains. Humans are obligate omnivores. Studies show no significant differences in cognitive function, cardiovascular risk, or bone health when vegan diets meet recommended dietary allowance levels. Animal protein contributed during the evolution of the human brain, but the development was driven by cooking. Cooking externalized the energy required for digesting food, which allowed for a reduction of jaws/jaw muscles, and especially gut size, freeing energy that could be used by the brain instead.

    Also, the brain is fueled by glucose, not protein …

  • Tesla owner blocked the Toronto Streetcar

    Jump

  • Germany. I found an article about a case where the parking offender tried to appeal the penalty (translated):

    The taxis picked up passengers waiting at the stops and drove them to other stops along the route. This went on for an hour, then the car parked not far from a sign saying “Please keep a sufficient distance from the tracks” was towed away and the route was clear again. This interactive view on Google Street View shows the location.

    When the VGF then demanded €973.13, €25 of this was a flat-rate fee for expenses – and the rest was the cost of the rail replacement taxis. After hearing witness statements, the court ruled out any manipulation by the taxi industry, and the court also found no evidence of any delay in towing the car.

  • Where I am from, the transportation company will call Taxis to get the people to their destination station in case a car blocks the tramline, until the car has been towed. The car owner has to pay the Taxi invoices.

  • Kleinanzeigen "IP gesperrt"

    Jump

  • Gleiches Problem hier. In Firefox auf meinem PC ist mein IP-Bereich angeblich gesperrt. Die Anmeldung am Handy in Fennec hat funktioniert. Daraufhin habe ich eine E-Mail erhalten, Betreff: „Neue Anmeldung – bist du es?“. Ich habe den enthaltenen Link „Login bestätigen“ in Firefox auf meinem PC geöffnet, und jetzt bin ich dort auf einmal auch angemeldet.

    Selten so einen Unsinn erlebt.

  • Should Greenland join the EU vs USA

    Jump

  • The EU-poll is from 2024, before Trumps second term started, and most definitely outdated. The US-poll is from “2025”, which is also pretty vague. The sources are different, probably also the methodology (0% vs 9% unsure is quite a large difference).

  • Over the past 10 months, Russian losses in the war with Ukraine have been growing faster than any time since the start of the full-scale invasion in 2022

    Jump

  • Interesting. According to the daily numbers published by the AFU, the average daily personnel losses were ~1560/day in December 2024, and ~1130/day in December 2025. This BBC analysis (which does not explicitly reference AFU) explicitly refers to people killed, whereas the AFU also counts (some) wounded soldiers. This could imply that the survival chances for Russian soldiers have decreased (attacks are more deadly)

  • Bazzite has seen a massive jolt in growth over the holiday season, surpassing 50k active users. The Fedora Atomic image has gained 38.8k users total in 2025 since it began counting in April 🥳

    Jump

  • The graph shows weekly active users. So you wouldn't be counted unless you actively boot Bazzite.

  • Sekyuritee

  • One has to find the right balance between security and comfort, and this entirely depends on the threat model one has. Nowadays, I will always enable full-disk encryption on all of my devices, even if I then decide to store the keys in TPM and unlock the disk at boot.

    I have at least 5 half-broken HDDs sitting around, completely unencrypted, I have no idea if they still work, but they are surely full of private data that I would like to have purged. I fear mechanical destruction might be the only solution for some of them, but just wiping them manually is more effort than doing nothing, so I guess they will still be around for some time. And with SSDs, there is no reliableway delete all data.

    With encryption? Just delete the key and you are done.

    The threat model changes in the future? Easy, the data is already encrypted.

  • Approximately 1 in 25 Pixel users run GrapheneOS

    Jump

  • Google sold 40 million Pixels between 2016 and 2023, and that number has grown rapidly in the last few years. I think an estimate of around 40 million active Pixel phones is reasonable, which would give GrapheneOS a relative market share of 1%; certainly less than 2%.

  • Depending on the input method you use, you might be able to move your .XCompose file to ~/.config/X11/xcompose. Don’t let the X11 in there confuse you, I am using this with fcitx5 under Wayland.

  • Alternative to KDE-Connect?

  • That is not correct, gsconnect has no dependency on KDE Connect, it is an independent implementation of the same protocol, not a wrapper
