Well, not only this, the private movement of avoiding American stuff is also getting stronger in the EU. Somehow it's like game in the store, YESSsss, +1:EU -1:US. It's feels so satisfying to find and buy alternatives to US products where it's possible, from tech over clothes to food. Somehow Trump is doing the EU a favor by pushing us to become independent again. It will take time, but we'll get there.

Like how many US products are there really? Pretty much everything's made in China, except some software. Even the stuff with a "US" brand.


lol, what a money grab.


Well, I simply don't accept nor attend meetings that are setup directly after another meeting. There must be also time to pee, poop, drink, prepare, etc. in between them. At least 30mins gaps between meetings is a must have for me.

But yeah, this guy work for google, says it all.


Same here, running MacType/Windows on a 65" LG 4k OLED C5 TV with 100% scaling as my main display for all kind of stuff incl. coding. But i must admit that fonts on Linux looks noticeable better out of the box and MacType/Windows does not apply to all applications. E.g. for LibreOffice i had to change the rendering engine(disable skia) under options and on PDFGear MacType does not apply at all.

Anyway, OLED is great, I'm sitting 2 arm length away from the panel.

People complaining are probably Gen.Z that never sat in-front of an ol' CRT in the 90s and are spoiled by smartphones running 4k on minuscule 7" displays with 460ppi.


Good ol' times :) Cheers to all the ex. Efnet and Underworld #warezgraphics, #warezart, #3dee, #3dwarez, #3dgfx, #warez3d fellas.


Can't forget #linuxwarez


and #oldwarez where we were trading 80s games in the 90s


Well, Teams does the job(listen to bigger events and waste productivity with chit chat)


Wow this site, logo and everything is so ugly. But the FAX styled photos fits well to Europe's deficit.


What deficit?


Confident politics and military, meaningful future proof investments, innovation in modern tech areas like CPU/GPU, AI, EV, Mobiles, etc. there is a lot.

What else, hmmm... Ohhh yes digitization, we "Germans" still can't let our FAXing machines go.

What we are good at, outsourcing and riding into deeper dependency of other continents.


Releasing a browser without cross OS support incl. mobile devices, makes no sense now a days. Extension support and bookmarks sync is also a must have. That's why Firefox is still my browser.


Seems like >=2026 will be the year I'll start buying stuff again that has been replaced by mobile phones during all the years (Camera, Mp3Player, etc.) With this coming, buying a flagship mobile phone simply doesn't worth for me anymore. Currently i own a S24Ultra, my next mobile phone will probably be the cheapest Chinese crap I can get, just for the mobile things i "have" to use it.


I started the desmarting process two years ago with a new camera and protrek casio watch, no more BigTech Pay, etc.
