Stimmt. Habe den Post angepasst.

Nach dem Vorfall, temporär. Nicht nach den Urteil aus dem Dienst entlassen.

Oh yeah, parts of what he did were pretty evil. I’d just say he was not quite Mengele-levels of evil and was pretty flexible, unlike those that were hardcore Nazis til the end when the Mossad had hunted them down.

Right? Windows doesn’t even show an “unknown” partition/file system, but I’m sure it’s still there.

I was thinking about the fact that my B450 board does not support PCIe 4.0 which, depending on m next GPU, might not be a good thing. Other than that, I’d maybe consider a mobo swap if I had new requirements like more and/or faster SSD slots or something.

I was wondering last night where Ubuntu was on my gf’s living room gaming rig. I can’t recall uninstalling it, but the boot menu was only listing Windows. Will have to live boot Ubuntu and have a look at Gparted to see if the ext4 partition is still there.

I dunno, but I enjoy his voice very much.

Can’t watch the video right now, but I can say that I’m very conflicted about the guy. I visited Mittelbau Dora not too long ago, which is the underground production site they dug into a mountain to produce the V2 rockets when things had gone sideways in the war.

Historians pretty much agree that von Braun had visited the site on multiple occasions and must have known that it was staffed with forced laborers under horrendous conditions. He actually requested those people if I remember right. He was also a party member and ranked pretty high in the Nazi leadership.

From what I know about him though, I get the feeling that he was not among the worst at the time. Was he okay with forced labor dying in the production facilities he was ultimately responsible for? Probably, likely even. On the other hand, he was an incredible scientist and engineer and probably had to make the best of the political circumstances at the time, while he was driven by his crazy ambition to advance his field and build the awesome jet engines that he dreamed about.

The US just flying him over without any consequences for his actions was shitty, but then again: Would it have been better to let the Soviets snag him first? Probably not. He’s one of the figures you just cannot put in either the “Good” or “Evil” drawer.
