Die selbstgefälligen Grünen Politiker*innen, die sich in ihrer Bundes- und Landespolitik Bubble eingeigelt haben und Demonstrationen höchstens nur noch von Transparent-Tragen-Fotos für die Presse oder bei Bühnenauftritten kennen und sich in ihren, vom Volk abgetrennten, Politikbetrieb lobotomisierten und sich nicht mehr an Gewalt, Kessel und Repression durch Staatsgewalt erinnern wollen, die erzählen ihre anekdotisch geführten Narrative, wie sie doch von der Polizei vor Angriffen geschützt werden müssten und das wäre eine gute Arbeit, die man nicht mit ACAB diskreditieren dürfe.

Geht Scheißen und überlegt dabei, was wirklich wichtig ist und wie weit ihr von der Realität abgekoppelt seid.

So I realized that this thing comes with a USB A to USB C adapter, an internet search says that it is to transfer data from your old phone to the new one, which means they acknowledge the fact that you might have a USB A cable phone, thus owning a USB A charger that is useless with their FILTHY USB C CABLE WHICH MAKES THE LACK OF CHARGER EVEN DUMBER

Digitalminister erklärt: Ausweis und Führerschein bald im Handy

Hm, was kann da schon schiefgehen?

Personalausweis, Führerschein, Kreditkarten – alle wichtigen Dokumente gut versteckt und griffbereit, zum Beispiel auf Reisen. Aber was, wenn man sie alle sicher an einem einzigen Ort speichern könnte? Genau das soll bis Anfang 2027 mit der digitalen Brieftasche möglich sein. Anfangs werden aber wahrscheinlich noch nicht alle Funktionen verfügbar sein.

Vermutlich gespeichert in einer App die man nur über US-Amerikanische Dienstleister, aka Werbefirmen beziehen kann. Und sicherheitshalber werden die Daten dann auch in irgendwelchen ominösen "Clouds", aka "Anderer-Leute-Computer", gespeichert. Was macht dieser "Digitalminister" eigentlich beruflich, bzw. weiß der überhaupt wovon er schwafelt?

The #Bose quality. How to spend almost 250 bucks for headphones that fall apart every few years. The quality of the plastics is simply embarrassing.

I just spent 3 hours trying to transfer data between two MacBook Pros using a Thunderbolt cable (not Wi-Fi, since the files are huge), and I failed. Turns out Target Disk Mode, which used to work flawlessly every time, is no longer a thing. Its replacement, “Share Disk,” is unnecessarily complicated and completely broken.

Lately, I’ve been finding myself wanting to throw my Mac out the window way too often. This kind of crap is exactly why I left Windows Vista 15 years ago.

#scams piss me off.

Because usually it's the most vulnerable people who fall for them.

I just spent two hours trying to convince a guy at my group home that his "girlfriend" was actually a scammer.

1. They were in a different country and had never actually wanted to speak on the phone or do a video call.

2. They constantly asked for all his money.

3. They would become extremely manipulative if he refused.

He is autistic and has taken out LOANS and is now also heartbroken.

More #rant on government not planning ahead.

Environment: we see a grassy area, we are going to upgrade into a small garden!

Transportation: we are building a railway (that no local ask for), the garden has to go!

All in the span of one year.

A certain pavement along the road is too small, people have to walk on vehicle road. Instead of widening it, they decided to add more handrails to the bridge (to cross the road), retile the steps to the bridge, to update the lights.

Finally they sealed an area, making people guessing that they would widen the pavement. Nope, they are going to build a lift to the bridge, and some of the handrails and lights would have to go because they are in the way.

They just don't plan ahead.

Random #rant

There's a cycling path near my place. But people prefer to walk on it, and cyclists still prefer to cycle on the original pavement.

Because the cycling path was built for the sake of building one, on top of the existing worn out dirt path. The cycling path is too sharp and sloped up and down for cyclists, but ideal for walkers. While the original pavement bend too much instead of a practical straight line, that's why people don't walk on them.

I have come up with a brilliant way to troll idiots on #reddit into not talking to you.

They will show up and insult you over just about anything, and then keep saying stuff that is so insufferable, and annoying that you feel compelled to respond.

It's extremely manipulative, and indicative of other #mentalhealth disorders, so I just say "hey you need help, so I'm happy to help you figure out what's wrong," then copy and paste random disorder definitions until they go away.

Bin kein Weintrinker, kaufe aber Dinge gerne im lokalen #Handel. Wie ja alle wissen, sind es Radfahrende und Fussgänger*innen, die dort den Umsatz bringen.

Nun gibt es Anlass für eine Flasche Champagner. #Rant: Diese blöden Weinhändlertypen hören sich dermaßen gerne reden, werfen mit Fachvokabular um sich und fühlen sich null in den unerfahrenen Kunden hinein - beim nächsten Mal gehe ich einfach in den Supermarkt. Nervt!

"I Will Fucking Dropkick You If You Use That Spreadsheet" by Ludicity from 2023 (https://ludic.mataroa.blog/blog/i-will-fucking-dropkick-you-if-you-use-that-spreadsheet/) is a hell of a rant about the ways in which spreadsheets are abused far beyond their actual normal uses.

10/10 ranting, top marks.

I'd quote it but I'd end up quoting the whole thing.

Ach, dabei kann ich noch einen kleinen #Rant loswerden:

#Mastodon z.b. erlaubt zwar die #Authentifizierung über #OIDC, aber es erzeugt im Anschluss ein Session Cookie mit einer Laufzeit von einem Jahr. Sprich, einmal authentifiziert bleibt man das auch für ein Jahr.

Das ist ein Beispiel für eine nicht gute OIDC (#SSO) Implementierung.
