  • Well, not really. Your first reply to me got downvoted because you setup a strawman - arguing against something that wasn't even the point.

    Your second, the one you claimed said the same as mine, insinuated Dark Matter is just some mathy explanation among many. This doesn't give it credit. It's the current no 1 explanation with lots of evidence. Still didn't get downvoted though.

  • Nobody "automatically assumes" anything. Dark matter is the best candidate of possible explanations because it explains observation and still fits the standard model. Even if they find the necessary particles eventually, nobody would call it certain though. Certainty is a unicorn.

  • People don't think about that. You have to register somewhere in order to use your $12.99 cam, install some app and are good to go.

    How would a someone not interested in tech know that the footage data is stored on some online server and you are at the mercy of their itsec.

  • You're right about this specific case. Those guys were probably just greedy to the point of evil.

    However, the comment I replied to made a pretty universal claim about rulers. And at least looking at our rulers in Europe I see more incompetence than malice.

  • Are those people part of the ruling class? Never heard of them nor did a brief search bring anything up (I'm not American though).

    Anyway, instead of calling it a "war" by the ruling class I prefer to explain stuff with Hanlon's Razor which fits here, too.

  • Schon, nur beschreibt Gaslighting eine Form von Manipulation of persönlicher Ebene. Das passt in dem Kontext überhaupt nicht, weil da ein Politiker nur einfach wieder Blödsinn faselt. Niemand fühlt sich dabei in seiner Realitätswahrnehmung beeinträchtigt.

  • Linux if you’re prepared to support it entirely yourself

    What does this even mean? The most work caused in administering my company's IT comes from destructive patches from Microsoft. Just like a month ago they released a security patch that caused the domain controller to not reboot which is pretty much the worst thing you can run into aside outright malicious actors (not sure Microsoft doesn't count as one). So I had to "support" users by rolling back untested shit until a hotfix was released.

    My private setup runs exclusively on Linux. Patches also sometimes cause trouble but it's just as infrequent and less destructive if it happens.

    It's really not that different from an admin point of view but it's not Linux' business model to snoop on or extort you or to force proprietary hardware on you because sEcUrItY.
