“Technology leaders to the United Nations and the Vatican worry that the use of drones and AI in weapons could reduce the barrier to killing and dramatically escalate conflicts.”
Interesting read, didn’t know the Vatican had “technology leaders”.
Had a colleague who did this regularly, till I put his new pw on a postit, and that in his coat pocket. Worked as long as the weather stayed same… It escalated away, until he let his gf call me for his password, because he did not dare to anymore. We finally gave up and set his pw fixed to “123456”. He was really good at the job, only not with his pw.
Testing the waters…
It’s the first step of many to follow. Bavaria already “promised” to make it as tough as possible for the clubs to establish. They will now need to spread and root fast before the next (most probably rightwing / CxU) government can start to revert all that was achieblved.
Thats probably the cause the price of these floppies was so high back then, they needed replacements ;-) /s
Just let’s wait a bit. Those folks bringing the money “home” will not last long in their cope cages.
Thank you for that information. It’s a company machine, but if I ever get annoyed enough I’ll try it out. I just f*s my brain that they’re bold enough to change the UI for worse.
tl, did not read all. sry, tired.
“The reality is that while you’ve gotten very good at navigating the operating system that you’ve been using for the past twenty years, very little of that knowledge is useful in GNU/Linux.”
One could add “Or on the next version/release of Windows”, cos they’re breaking that “knowledge” with each new (forced) change on the UI. Yes, I want to right-click on a file and choose “rename” in a context menu, not choose one of a ton of icons, I want excel to open a new instance with a new file, and so on. It kills productivity for me to be forced on these changes.
“he almost mocked the inability of the west’s $40tn economy to organise a battlefield defeat of Russia’s $2tn economy.” <- this really bothers me. There is no will here for Ukraine to succeed.
Very interesting link, thank you.
Thank you for your words, setting this in another perspective. What bothers me most with this, somewhat -please excuse my words- cold view is the pain inflicted on all involved. I do not have any deep personal ties to both of these countries, but a huge sympathy to their inhabitants. Plus, I think any death or injury, even on the Russian side, hits mostly innocent, but probably misguided persons. And all of that because of one man’s aspirations. I’d rather like my and other’s governments to be more involved in this conflict, and also to show some more balls in regard of weapons usage and support. Do they all really think that person’s gonna push the button when totally cornered? Because that’s what he is, alone in that Kremlin of his, depending on his mafia buddies.
Article 5 is only a can-do, not a must-do. Which is also why NATO partner armies are stationed in those countries. If one of those partner soldiers gets hurt, it should make NATO’s decision to intervene easier.
I would think Russia’s next target will be Georgia. The invasion there is only frozen for the moment, but with the pro-Russian government there it only needs some more Russian style laws like those anti-LGBTQ or foreign-agents one, plus massive protests in the young city population and Russia will “come to help the government”.
Well for me it does not work (T470s, two docks, different monitors). Well, it does sometimes work after the second reboot.

Olimex had a ARM board with POE, if I remember correctly… though I cannot find it atm. Here’s an ESP based instead: https://www.olimex.com/Products/IoT/ESP32/ESP32-POE/open-source-hardware
German here. According to my experience, on some places you’re the weird one not greeting.
Doctor’s waitimg room: greet and goodbye expected.
Bus: Usually you enter in front and leave in the back, so only greet the driver, usually.
Nature/dog walk: Indifferent. Usually we greet everyone we meet, due to the shared nature experience probably. And usually nobody greets back. If you make room for cyclists, nobody says thanks or even breaks a bit to give you more time to get out of their way. Last weekend, however, everybody we met greeted first, and every cyclist breaked and said thanks, which was a remarkably strange but positive experience.
Office/company grounds: I tend to greet everyone. Except for a few who regularly don’t greet back. Usually at least saying “hi” once a day is expected.
What miffes me most is that most people here are reluctant to thank for services provided (cashier, doc’s assistant, cleaners, security…). As if these hardest working people somehow were invisible, or machines.
Plant trees around your house. Shadow and natural cooling because they tend to evaporate water. Use white outer surfaces to reflect sunlight for additional benefit.
