At this point, you’re just mocking us IT people for or lack in upper body strength. :D

I always assumed whale would be too fatty.

400 staff German state institution, Windows desktops are standard, but you can get a supported and standardized Linux Mint installation provided by IT on your personal computer upon request. A few dozen people do. We also provide some 150 publicly accessible PCs for research in or brach locations, all of which are Mint as well. And IT staff is allowed to install any system on their hardware they want, no questions asked; many run Linuxes. Linuces. Linnixees.

Yeah, many are by now, they feel way strong. We have state level elections in two weeks, and I’m genuinely scared.

Thx kind stranger.

+1 for gpodder, and of you have a Nextcloud, you can sync your subscriptions using an NC plugin that I can’t remember the name of.

Yeah, you would think so, but we have weekly demonstrations of Nazis in the streets (Pegida, Coronazis, people trying to disturb CSD parades,…), Nazis trying to get into parliaments and councils (AfD, parts of CDU), Nazis in talk shows and interview, Nazis writing for big newspapers, Nazis in our police and armed forces, … Just because they mostly don’t use 3rd Reich Nazi symbols, doesn’t make them any less Nazi, and Germany has far too much tolerance for them. It’s basically the same playbook as anywhere else: make small steps, undermine institutions, spread talking points, gain traction, destroy democracy.

As a German, I can assure you that there’s still a metric shitton of Nazis here, and as far as I’m concerned, they could fuck all the way off.

Yes, such a program is called an installer. /s

Sorry, I don’t have an answer for you that’s more helpful than the rest of the comments here, they all did well. I second booting a live system.

Now that’s a name I can trust!

Always has been. insert meme of astronaut shooting the other astronaut in the back of the head

EDIT: spelling

If you have a network share available on your LAN, you might want to try the FolderSync App. It can make your phone sync its photos every time you’re in your WiFi and plugged into the charger.

Alternatively, if you have NextCloud, the NextCloud App can do that for you.

And that unit shall be called “1 milliweasel”.

+1 for Ben Eater. There will be things you won’t understand, but for those at least you get a good starting point for reading them up.

EDIT: Main thing for me was to watch them when I was rested and could concentrate, and I didn’t binge them in one sitting; these are probably best consumed when they’re not just running in the background.

Fellow German here. As a child I always thought that the black man must be Death himself, wearing a black robe, his face on eternal shadow, bringing darkness to all who meet him. And of you get hit by the ball, death will come and “reap” you from the game. THAT’S someone to be afraid of.

It was only much later I learned that it could also be interpreted as a hurtful stereotype that should be avoided.

Very, VERY true.

Toddler related as well. Wanted to slam his face into the edge of the sink until the screaming stops. It was pretty close a few times.
