For me, it is a glorified auto-complete function. Could definitely live without it.

Putin will burn everything down as long as he can be the king of the ashes.

*furiously waves book around*

Thank you!

I can’t find it right now, but there is some explanation in “Clean Code” why switches shouldn’t be used all over the place.

Don’t forget the checks from the devil Georg Soros himself /s

Yes, exactly that.

Your head is going to hurt even more if you are a German: The prefix “ent” usually means to lose or get rid of something. I.e. “I got rid of it” -> “Ich habe es entsorgt” so everytime I read “enshittification” I had to remind myself it’s the process of making something worse not better.

So “disenshittification” is a double knot in my brain. I propose “disshittification” as alternative.

The Chaos Computer Club Initiative Chaos macht Schule might be able to help you with some materials and guidance.

Interestingly I found multiple physical copies of Concord at my local mall.

It’s different so I don’t like it! That’s at least until I am used to them in 2-5 days.

On more serious note: The delta/up/down count section on posts looks a bit overloaded to me. Not sure what I would change though.

As is tradition with MS and their complicated naming policies Visual Studio is not VS Code.

The EU had no credibility when it comes to migration to begin with. Frontex has been complicit in all sorts of controversies.

None and all of them. The video has been posted before but the essence is that the overwhelming part of Marvel’s films deals with the folloing scenary:

Bad guy tries to change something, often for legitimate reasons. God guys stop bad guy and everything stays the same. Even when people try to change something in a good way there is always something that goes horribly wrong.

Nah, slap a ‘Data lake’ label on it and call it a day

highly controversial figure in Germany

Understatement of the year. Courts have repeatedly ruled that calling him fascist and Nazi is a factual statement. He has been sentenced multiple times for using Nazi rhetoric and symbols.

His local chapter of the AFD party has been labeled “assuredly right-wing extremist” by the Verfassungsschutz which again was upheld by court decision as well.

In case you are serious: Lemmy.ml is known for being a tankie instance. So a nonsensical anti-west statement makes a lot more sense considering the instance the user chose.

Yay, let’s all hate on the one crypto messenger, that is independently verifiably secure.

If Telegram wasn’t good for privacy, Western governments would not be trying to shut it down.

They are not trying shutdown Telegram, they are trying to control it.

E2EE is nice, but doesn’t matter if the government can just sieze or hack your phone. Much better to use non-Western social media and messaging apps.

What kind of argument is this supposed to be? Governments can size your phone anywhere … oh wait … lemmy.ml … yeah, I see…

It IS the point. If Telegram was designed and set up as a pure carrier of encrypted information, no one could/should fault them for how the service is used.

However, this is not the case, and they are able to monitor and control the content that is shared. This means they have a moral and legal responsibility to make sure the service is used in accordance with the law.
