Are they that bad? I do not understand the contempt against them. I live in a different city in Europe and my neighbors seem to have a dislike to the pigeons (also they asked me to destroy the nest they have built in my balcony).

In Europe, they are seen as rats that can fly, which I find funny.

Advertising is essential, you need people to know about your product somehow. People will not buy something they do not know, especially when there is competition. The methods that are in use in current times on the other hand...

Got a Thinkpad X1 Carbon today, thank you for the suggestion. I love it!

A keylogger, as it seems. So, if you give your phone unlocked to authorities, e.g. during a border check, they can log your passcode and you are now screwed.

Then, they sell packages/boosts that remove the like limit, making tons of money :)

The bouncer will also not check your ID as long as the barcode scanner says it is a valid certificate. He just does not care at all.

Thanks for the heads up. I was wondering about the Quadro as well, since I know that NVIDIA and Linux do not play nicely at all.

Yes, that is the case.

Makes sense. My employer actually issues Thinkpads to employees, maybe I can ask for a second hand one that they have decommissioned.

Unfortunately System76 gear are rare in Europe, I was not able to find any second hand or new online.

Very interesting. I will definitely check it out.

The question needs to be asked here is: Why there is a shortage of developers in Germany, while people having access to free education? One reason is that I can be paid three times more in the US, and with the extra disposable income, I can

That's exactly the point. For example, my parents sacrificed a lot of give me and my brother the opportunity to get a good education, and now when they want to retire, they are unable to do it safely, as they could not accrue the wealt

who cares about new rules when nobody is enforcing them. it has been 3 years since gdpr is in effect, but nobody actually cares, especially the U.S. tech giants.

No, actually, it is the opposite. For legal compliance, the company tells you when it is safe for you to trade, assuming that you do not have any insider information that would affect the stock price during the allowed periods, without gett

Make sure to visit it in Spring/Summer! The place is very lively with joggers, bikers, wind surfers, BBQs (although it is now banned because of lockdown I think), and tons of people just lying around and chatting. I understand that peo

Tbh, illegality aside, creating a very highly secure system like this from scratch as an one or two person project sounds very exciting and fun.
