You can have manual light switches and home automation. I have exactly that, but given I built a new house with KNX integration. All light switches are physical switches and can on…

The software on Sony Cameras is known for being very bad, but that's not the only brand. All the other brands are definitely better in that regard (but I prefer my Sony because of …

That "waste" of resources was absolutely tiny. Took me just some minutes. And I didn't do it because of DEI, just because I think it's a better name.

I find the comparison about being good for newcomers rather interesting. I would say none of them are easy for beginners. I don't see where C(++) can shine here. For a beginner int…

Schwachkopf-Affäre is a good example of how the right wings try to put in your head censorship and making you happy about having even more censorship in the future. There is a ton …

As another commenter said, the part with Intel is the only manufacturer making leading chips, doesn't really makes sense. Right now Intel is losing a lot, lucky to them Nvidia inve…

That specific law is for politicians only yes, but you can still go to court if someone insults you - § 185 StGB.

How harshly and swift, not just in theory? And please come up with a good amount of examples. The statistics say otherwise. And yes I know - in my opinion wrongly done - cases like…

For me the first chart says everything: It is a feeling. I know so many people or seen them on the internet who say "you can't say anything anymore" and then still continue to writ…

Ok, that's cool that you can develop faster now, but as the other comment: it is a tool, not the cost of a team. It still for me a very strange comparison. But nonetheless, thanks …

That is a very strange calculation for me or I missed something. This is an open-source project, so all human contributors cost zero. He does not count himself as a cost, ok fine a…

I agree only partially with you. Yes some problems were ignored for far too long, but these providers sometimes block stuff that is just adult content. And it is an issue, if a sma…

Not the airport itself, but the route.

I think what he means is the same issue I have. I also fly a lot in Europe and the only choice I have is Ryanair. I don't have a problem that Ryanair exists, rather having an issue…

For me the search results are much better. Even more since sometimes Google is full of AI and ads. And what does Maps and Flight has to do with it? I use Kagi and still Google Maps…

Then maybe it is just not for you, completely fine :). I used DDG in the past, but didn't see a big improvement (it is better than Google though). Kagi really changed it for me and…

For me it is a great index, much better than all the alternatives. Especially against Google that is now filled with AI and Ads. Sometimes so bad, you really have to scroll down, t…

I have a very different experience. For me the algorithm works pretty well. And I use youtube a lot since many years. Also have the paid subscription so no ads anymore (beside spon…

It is still being sold in Europe, but by a pretty small amount (always was). I personally (yes anecdotal evidence) never seen one. And the discontinuation in US happened also in So…

And again, how is this Obamas fault in other countries, where you can see the same trend?

This sounds for me a very Obama hate(?) conclusion. If it's really Obamas fault, why does this happen in many other countries as well? Living in germany and italy in both countries…

Do we know that guy is bright? And do we beg for that? I was 25 years old and thought I can do everything. Now I know better and would definitely not trust myself going into such a…

What is the absolute worst that can happen? People not getting their money is nothing bad for you?

So was I, now I'm over 40 and boy oh boy can I tell you how I would definitely not trust myself at that age going into such critical systems.
