  • Ah, I see, that’s a pity

    In an age, where people all around the world can communicate and exchange ideas in seconds, it’s still a PITA to actually share locally produced products.

    There is so much stuff, I’d like other people to try, that we have here in Austria.
    And the other way round, I’d really like to taste my way through the pearls of different kitchens of the world.

    Well, hopefully some day either teleportation gets real or we find a way to authentically print food stuff ;⁠-⁠)




  • Not so sure about that
    Many words, especially combined ones, have implicit meaning, because of the words they use

    It’s not like ‘chainsaw’ could mean a ‘mouse trap’, because we already know what a saw and what a chain is

    Of course in principle words are consensual social constructs, but I always find it highly irritating, that we throw out the baby with the water, by saying, nothing means anything until we decide on it






  • Well, depends on what you need to restart.

    If it’s just a service or two, then it’s pretty quick.

    Obviously you need to know, what you’re doing.
    And I think that’s pretty hard with windows, because it never tells you, what it’s actually doing during an update.

    With Linux it’s much more transparent and often the restart of a service is just part of my update routine.
    No need to close and save all my open stuff, and reboot. Just restart the few services that got an update and that’s pretty much it.

    So, really depends on the update, the transparency of it and also the personal insight/skill








  • Are we still enough equipped, when we throw out all the American jets, the USA can just disable remotely (or at least don’t give us the codes to start - actually I’m not entirely sure, what the reality here is, but it seems the USA has some say in the usage of our fighter jets, when they are bought from the USA)?

    I’d really like to find some comfort in your words, but all the shit I read doesn’t look pretty for us in Europe
