Ah man I hate that so many Americans seem to think they are paying anything for Germany’s defense. It’s just not true. Sure there are US troops in Germany but only because you need them to be here for your own purposes like that Rammstein b

Would you mind elaborating on why you dislike GDPR? I, as a German, like GDPR. Sure it isn’t perfect but it’s better than what we had before. Now when I request the deletion of my data for example a company has to and will nearly always com

I can see why you’d feel that way but for me it still blocks a lot of stuff I don’t want. I block some domains/companies via my hosts file and run a pihole but there’s always the odd advertising network etc I, or my pihole didn’t knew

If you want more granularity I’d suggest giving uMatrix a try. You’ll basically break every site at first and have to make adjustments for every site you visit (whitelist certain Ressourcen on a per domain basis) but I think it’s well worth

I don’t think disclosing user names of requests would be in the interest of those users.

Plain‽ That’s not a word I’d use for PR! I’d encourage you to try some again and maybe go for one that’s older than 12 months.

Pecorino Romano is my favorite cheese! It’s flavor is more subtle than that of Parmaggiano Reggiano and it lacks some of the bitter notes which makes it excellent for Carbonara as you said. But I think it’s perfect for tomato based pasta s

I’m a resident of Hanover and have been to every Cebit in the last ten years. The fall was inevitable. You could feel that Cebit was struggling to attract visitors and wasn’t sure what it’s identity was. I feel like they should have focused

Renting out private homes is, or shall I say was still a big part of Cebit in Hanover in 2018. As a resident living in the core of the city you’d always get flyers in the months leading up to it asking you if you’d be interested in renting

I assume you have more disposable income than me. For me this would be a gamble and like I said the chance of data recovery isn’t to high in my case that’s why I haven’t done it mainly. I had someone who works with HDD’s take a look at it a

It’s questionable if the data can even be restored. Plus there’s more sensitive data than just Bitcoin private keys on that disk I’m not really that comfortable sending that in to some lab for data recovery. When the disk broke I inquired w

Sometimes I nearly shed a tear when I open my wallet that shows me how many coins it held over its lifetime. It even converts it into my local currency as if to mock me. I remember times where those Bitcoin faucets (is that still a thing?)

I’ve been using elementary OS since a few years on my main machine and really like it but there are a few quirks that bother me. For example I can’t use the WiFi drop down to change networks but instead have to open the network manager to s

I’ve been using elementary OS for the past two years or so; you can use everything that runs on Ubuntu which of course includes .deb packages.

I use and like Bitwarden but their iOS app feels a bit slow especially when I need to search the Vault. After tapping the search icon it takes somewhere around five seconds (sometimes even longer) of loading time until I can enter my query

I could do that but I thought there’d be someone who I’m supposed to send GDPR complaint to. I haven’t looked into this at all yet I just remember there was some mention of some supervisory agency or something like that in the GDPR which I

Oh for sure, there’s no way I wouldn’t report them for all the hurdles they threw at me trying to not accept my GDPR request. I only received the account deletion confirmation email on Friday though so I still have to write that all up and

You should be aware that FullContact is known to sell customers data. I didn’t know that either and have tried the iOS App once but did not upload anything to them, I just wanted to see what the App could do/how it feels like. Then I r

Shouldn’t something like this be relatively simple to do with some kind of system with mobile connectivity & GPS housed in some kind of floatable shell? It wouldn’t have to be powered on for the whole journey (to preserve power) as long

Just guessing here but I think it’s due to the financial troubles SoundCloud had in summer 2017. They had to lay off half of their staff and closed some offices in SF & London. Wouldn’t be too far fetched to assume they scrapped their A

> The fine is the maximum allowed under the old data protection rules that applied before GDPR took effect in May. £500k, what a joke for a company like Facebook. I’m glad that GDPR has a wider range when it comes to fines.

T-Mobile (my provider) has a plan with unlimited LTE data and when someone in the EU advertises something as unlimited is really has to be unlimited. I managed to download as much as 2TB within 24 hours with no complains. I pay 80€ per mont

I don’t even have regular WiFi.. I’m mostly using my phones LTE via hotspot because it’s much faster than anything I can get (in a big city that is) here. I don’t have a cap for that.
