  • People that really want convenience just pay for streaming services.

    Streaming services stopped being convenient a couple of years ago. Introduction of ads, content strewn all over the place, shitty UI, etc.

    I went with Stremio because it has everything in one place. Seeding is not an option because Germany is a shit country for seeding Torrents.

    Real Debrid does the torrenting while the end user downloads the cached content. I’m not sure if they seed or not however.



  • You’re absolutely right! In Germany this type of behavior is even propagated by conservative parties. They’re blaming the green party for acting on ideology. This is “emotion” paraphrased. It doesn’t come as a surprise to me that simpletons adopt this narrative. Right wing propaganda essentially works by triggering emotions.


  • Mate, you ever stop to think that maybe you are the one falling for right wing propaganda? No one here is saying that it’s time for full EV. That’d never work. No one is being forced either. It’s a transition. ICEs will be here for decades to come. It’d be nice to have less of them however. Plus EVs can be a puzzle piece in solving energy storage, so full renewables becomes feasible.

    You’re blatantly ignoring scientific data and logic and are just parroting boulevard magazine level bullshit. Seek help, you’re definitely on the side of ignorant people who are afraid of change.


  • What does that have to do with your initial comment? And have you ever heard of photovoltaics? The fuck does that have to do with emotion?

    I myself still drive an ICE, because I don’t want to afford an EV yet (they’re extremely expensive in Germany). An EV would be ideal for me however. I produce a shitload of energy with the PV on my roof. In the last 30 years I’ve lived here, we had exactly one power outage that was fixed within an hour. We brutally overproduce wind and solar power, EVs can actually help store that surplus energy (think vehicle to grid).

    Maybe you should inform yourself before you make a fool of yourself.

    Unless that was sarcasm again, because that was just such a dumb comment. Jesus.






  • I make memories in winter too though. Nothing better than playing in the snow with your little daughter. Or ice-skating.

    Also, pubs are fucking great in the winter.

    That said, I do prefer the summers we have here. The temperature is always around 23-27 °C here, which is great. Also very little humidity.






  • Wieso soll er denn ein Troll sein? Einige Linux Distros sind schon ganz nett zu bedienen… Bis etwas schief geht. Dann fängt der Clusterfuck an. Bei Problemen mit Windows googelt man das Problem und findet eine einfache Lösung. Hat man ein Problem mit Linux, muss man sich mit der unfassbar toxischen Community auseinandersetzen und die Lösungen müssen wirklich Schritt für Schritt, Zeichen für Zeichen genau umgesetzt werden. Meistens wird dann ein Schritt ausgelassen, der für so’n Linux nerd selbstverständlich ist und man kommt nicht weiter. Ehrlich, ich hab es so oft versucht und scheitere jedes Mal am Troubleshooting. Wäre ich damit aufgewachsen, wäre das sicherlich kein Problem. Aber als Erwerbstätiger hab ich keine Zeit etliche Wikis zu studieren, einige Installationen zu schroten, damit ich meine Erfahrungen damit machen kann.

    Windows wird immer schlimmer was die Bevormundung der Nutzer angeht, aber es ist immer noch deutlich einfacher zu maintainen als Linux.
