Hey, I changed my desktop background and color theme… but yes, customization for me is copying all my scripts to ~/bin and set a keyboard shortcut to open a terminal. I’m-old-Gandalf-meme around here

edit: yes, .vimrc as well

Ja. Man sieht denke ich noch den Pfeil im unteren Bereich.

Jep, fand ich auch.

Hatte nicht die CxU auch Spaß mit der Rechtslage für das Remigrieren von Partei-Postern vor der Wahl… da waren dann amüsanterweise gps-tags montiert.

Aber im Ernst: Es ist eher unklar, ob das Wiederaufstellen (a) geahndet, (b) in geplanter Richtung geahndet, © in den entsprechenden Kreisen als negativ wahrgenommen und (d) bei den massiven Geldflüssen aus der 10⁹er-Riege den gewünschten Effekt hat.

Insgesamt sehe ich das Zerstören von Plakaten als fragwürdig - in diesem Fall empfand ich den offenbar zufällig entstandenen Trump-Schattenriss immerhin als dunkel humorvoll.

Weniger invasiv wäre es möglicherweise Trauerkränze mit ‘Unserer lieben Demokratie’ Spruchbändern davor abzulegen - aber den Graben in den Köpfen wird auch das nicht schließen.

War auch mein Eindruck. Jemand hatte das AgegenD Plakat kurz nach der Wahl zerfetzt und das bleibt dann offenbar übrig.

Kann man auch als podcast nebenbei hören (via newpipe oder so). Ist schon empfehlenswert. Nichts ganz Neues dabei, klar, aber grade in Punkto Tierschutz - aber nicht nur - war das ein sehr offener Austausch.

Und was mich immer besonders freut: Geprägt von gegenseitigem Respekt und echtem Interesse.

I always found the actual challenge to decide what to get rid of once the duplicates where found.

Some tools I tried would also ask file-by-file, which I found a bit useless for thousand of files. Yet, I cannot even express a set of rules to decide this in general, so I’m not blaming the tools.

In particular, with picture collections I also came to the conclusion that some redundancy is probably ok rather than accidentially deleting data that I duplicated on purpose and simply forgot why.

Frescobaldi as a front-end for Lilypond is quite nice as well

What do you recommend?

If Signal was not simple, my family and friends would likely use Telegram or WhatsApp. Even switching to Signal required a number of (general) newspaper articles criticising the status quo. It’s likely not optimal, but okayish and sharing opinions and holiday impressions feels a bit better.

Switching a service is a slow, difficult process and many contacts will not follow, given they would abandon other contacts among friends, family, parents at school, sports teams, … (now, I’m here, using 4+ solutions).

If training or even curiosity for the technical process is required, very few people will follow. If it takes me (with strong IT background) more than 30 minutes to understand/implement, I may have a decent private solution, but I will feel quite lonely soon.

Definitely. Also, one could get the impression that profit is not always helpful for sustainable use of resources. Better not open a thread on forestry, agriculture or … whatever really …

Nuclear power is usually not abandoned for being dangerous, but because it’s weirdly complex to keep it safe as compared to the alternatives [1]. This makes it one of the most expensive ways to produce energy (at least given European regulations). Also, the raw material is expected to be quite rare relatively soon.

I guess this may be more about the way caveman made their fire… and the multi-billion cavedollar structure for holding the magic stone can be annoying.

[1] reading other comments, I feel like it is necessary to clarify that by alternatives, I do refer to green energy like wind, solar and water, plus energy storage.

I agree that atomic energy is preferable to fossil energy in almost all regards. The most convincing aspect for me is that you can see, pack and store your by-products, at least somehow, while CO₂ emissions can only insufficiently be handled using carbon capture and storage (CCS).

People tend to understand dangers with visible effects easier (impressive boom) than indirect effects like climate change (less impressive, slow motion, yet possibly apocalyptic boom).

1. Password Safe Pro
2. My Expenses
3. FL Studio, formerly Fruity Loops (also: Desktop)
4. Threema
5. Through the Ages (boardgame adaption)

Otherwise, I usually prefer free open source solutions (FDroid), but I regularly donate to keep the projects alive. 1 and 2 are small dev studios that I am happy to support.

Just wanted to add that it’s a music sequencing/composition/recording tool. I also bought it some 20 years ago and they really delivered the lifetime free upgrade thing - bought some upgrades and plug-in packs now and then nonetheless - - great tool. I feel that presently, I use roughly 20% of its features, but I never find the time to dig deeper.

edit: refering to the Desktop version

I could provide a low-effort option…

iconic!

love the hat and also the grumpy face for the tech-duck (seemingly, you beat me to the idea)
