    Just for context: for an average single paying tax class 1 that’s 4.4k net per month, while the median working single earned 2.2k net in 2025. Source: https://www.destatis.de/DE/Th…

    With big enterprises, at least the one my account hangs on, the process of replacing the supplier would take months just to get through all the enterprise hoops. Not sure if anyone…

    That’s timing the cache, that’s old stuff by know. As I understand, this writes a relatively large file („Gigabytes“) using this OPFS api, which is different from the „localStorage…

    The reason stated in the article seems sound to me: if it’s broken ins safari/ff but works in chrome, users conclude that the browser is the problem and switch to chrome.

    Where do you see the lack of respect? The author wanted to learn how gzip works and chose to implement it in a language they like to do so. As a learning tool, not because the worl…

    True! Technically even 9.99% would be three nines!

    If I understand the description of this „telemetry“ in fyns „MANIFESTO.md“ correctly, it does not make outbound connections you did not asked for. It sets the user agent http heade…

    With CRTs I would think that the problem may be that they do not see a full picture at all. Because the full screen is never lit all at once? Don’t know how persistence of vision w…

    Except if you need WSLg, because then you can add RDP issue to all your Wayland issues, and, not infrequently, also xwayland issues! You can have all the fun!

    Mend is not a competitor, renovate is the software, mend is the company. They are tools that automatically check your repo for dependencies and create PRs when there are updates. I…

    Maybe worth mentioning that this „1.50€ compensation“ rule only matters if you use the „Deutschland-Ticket“ which is a fixed price ticket for a whole month, unlimited travel on the…

    The difference being that while people have a good intuition on one may spend their vacation and what one would talk about, it’s not so easy to extrapolate for other things. Sure, …

    if you are in the business of buying parts, assembling them, and selling the assembly under your brand (as tuxedo and others like them are), then Apple is a indeed not an option. T…

    from my first tests it does fine with german, at least for the gastly "handwritten" font the restaurant menu I used for the test uses.

    or - if feasible - extend the existing crate instead of creating a new one.

    its easy as in "simple to implement and execute" but not cheap, because it may require scanning large amounts of memory. You have to visit every list entry. Whats trivial for a ver…

    I am somewhat surprised (and happy) germany is not in on it already. There are already (afaik voluntary) block lists ISPs are applying, but I am surprised its not breaking things o…

    To add some context: man kernel_lockdown[1] reads "Unencrypted hibernation/suspend to swap are disallowed as the kernel image is saved to a medium that can then be accessed.". And …

    Thanks, I did not knew that. My understanding was that keeping the memory alive for suspend-to-idle was the main issue here. But that also might be something a vertically integrate…

    Some of the issues have been addressed. For example, iirc, there was a bug where pulling out the power plug while the lid was closed would trigger the device to wake up. Some other…

    I won’t complain about anyone investing into wine/proton. GOG/CDPR just seem less willing or less capable of spending that money. Valve is essentially printing money. From sales, b…

    As someone who’s using steam daily for probably 50-75% of their lifetime now: I don’t love them, but it’s the lesser evil for sure. Sure, if GOG had even 20% of steams catalog and …

    That sounds like the most reasonable judgement coming out of a Hamburg court I’ve heard of yet (selection bias applies, of course)
