  • Ich kann an der Stelle zumindest teilweise relaten:

    Ich war in einer Verteilerliste drin, die einem die Möglichkeit gibt, eine tägliche Zusammenfassung statt lauter einzelner Mails zu erhalten. Aber mein Mail-Client hat dann wohl die Mail für zu lang befunden und nur einen Teil davon angezeigt und den Rest abgeschnitten (vielleicht als Spam-Schutz oder so, keine Ahnung). Man hatte aber auch einen sehr offensichtlichen Button, um sich die komplette Mail anzeigen zu lassen. Vielleicht hat ihr Mail-Client ja etwas ähnliches gemacht und dort war der Button dann nicht so offensichtlich?









  • Mine’s a bit closer to your proportions, although I’m not sure if Google can accurately predict the effects climbing a steep hill up and down will have on cycling and walking. The weird thing is the public transport. It must not know about all available lines, because that should be more like 90 minutes.









  • Because you don’t need to have significant experience or rent a VPS in order to do that, and I can respect that. We don’t need to force FOSS developers to become proficient in everything.

    What needs to happen is some kind of tool (ideally FOSS) that lets you spin up an actual forum with the same difficulty to set it up as Discord.



  • Huh, TIL.

    Regarding your edit, that amount wasn’t the cumulated cost of whatever Limewire were distributing, that would be idiotic indeed; rather the RIAA tried to call for a ruling that somehow those guys were causing $150,000 in damages - per instance. Now the article unfortunately doesn’t state how they possibly tried to justify that number, and I can’t be bothered to research that myself. Another thing that would interest me is how the plaintiff expected them to pay with almost every dollar on Earth.

    So while I don’t think this had anything to do with “lost sales”, I do agree with the possible fines and damage calculations not being fit for any sort of realistic purpose at all.
