German far right hails 'historic' election victory in east
  • Many attributed gains for the AfD with people voting out of protest. I think that explanation does not cut it anymore.

    Over 30% of two German federal states voted far right out of conviction. You can no longer claim this is just protest. Wish I could say where it all went wrong, why a big chunk of east Germany rejects democracy and embraces this.

    Dark days ahead for our democracy.

    EDIT: the results in Saxony had to be corrected, robbing the AfD of the blocking minority size in parliament. Probably seeing a „they stole the vote“ form soon on social media.

  • How to decide what kind of controller one should purchase?
  • Like others said, driver support for console controllers is pretty good through the board.

    My suggestion: try them out, maybe in a local store on their demo stations (pretty regular around here at least) or by ordering and returning the one you don’t like.

    I personally like the controller layout of the XBox controller more than the PlayStation one. But it comes down to preference. So definitely test drive to find the best suit for you.

  • Child medicine
  • For me it’s the size. Can not really trick my body to just swallow. „But that’s huge! We have to chomp on it to break it down! Trying to kill yourself by choking?“

  • The Callisto Protocol Shipped Too Early At Publisher's Insistence, Director Says
  • That is so incredibly short sighted though that it makes me really mad. How does an underperforming game make shareholders happy? That it dropped this fiscal year and not the next?

    I’m with you, I’m tired of this shit.

  • Geldautomaten-Sprenger: Bringen härtere Strafen etwas?
  • Vor allem weil es in so ziemlich allen umliegenden Ländern Pflicht ist. Warum kommen die ganzen Banden denn nach Deutschland? Weil zum Beispiel Belgien und die Niederlande Banken zur Absicherung/Aufrüstung der Automaten verpflichtet hat, und die Automaten dort nicht mehr angreifbar sind.

  • Separate 2FA OTP app from my password manager
  • At the end of the day it is a matter of preference and convenience. Is it safer to separate them? Absolutely. Is it as convenient as keeping them in one place? Absolutely not.

    So, pick your poison. Personally I have my MFA tokens in three separate locations, two self hosted server applications and in a mobile app (2FAS Auth). More for fallback/backup reasons. Having them in my password manager is just too convenient.

  • EU Council has withdrawn the vote on Chat Control
  • From what I understand it was withdrawn as a vote „in favor of the goals of the commission“ was not guaranteed. In part because Germany announced its decision to withdraw support yesterday. Seems to be standard behavior.

  • Why don’t you like Apple?
  • Well, there is in the EU, but that does not help anyone not here.

    An unlocked boot loader is something that would have to be forced from Apple’s hands like sideloading was in the EU. No way in hell they would pursue that on their own.

    Rapairability is a point that bugs me as well, hoping for right to repair laws in the EU to force all manufacturers to make the devices better in that regard.

  • Raspberry Pi Smart TV?
  • Basically a pair of bouncers at the door to your Home Network whose specific purpose is to manage the flow of guests from outside (the internet) to your club (media server with library).

  • hell yeah mint
  • Nala is a great apt frontend. It supports parallel downloads of packages and speeds up the whole process up a lot.

    Not sure which commands irk you as too long. Nala makes a good overview of changes like which package is bumped to what version and where it stands now. So I basically only use

    nala upgrade
    

    and take it from there. Updates the sources, lists the diff for upgradable packages and ask me to go forward or abort.
