@duponin what happened? I’ve noticed some weird crackling that doesn’t go away even when mumble is closed. Same with some steam games like Civ6.
@flipp 🤣
@StephanMatthiesen die kann ich gut gebrauchen, vielen Dank
@trysdyn I know what you mean, and who you mean, the decision didn’t even make sense back then. Fuck quakenet.

Could use some input:
HGST Deskstar NAS 4TB vs. HGST Ultrastar 7K6000 4TB:
The Ultrastar has 2M hours MTBF, double that of the Deskstar.
Warranty: Ultrastar 5 yrs, Deskstar 3 yrs.
Price: Ultrastar 193 EUR, Deskstar 137 EUR.
Is the premium worth it?

Every time you write code that requires Chrome or CEF or Electron, just remember: you are giving Google control over you and your users.

You are letting them dictate what you can and cannot do. You are letting them view your user's potentially private activities (URLs are always sent to Google without Debian's patch set).

You are becoming a part of their toxic culture, their neocapitalism.

Remember that.

Twitter is going full pro-censorship: https://blog.twitter.com/official/en_us/topics/company/2017/Announcement-RT-and-Sputnik-Advertising.html

How can we intelligently determine foreign and domestic misinformation campaigns when media distribution companies, who are prone to coercion and bias, actively censor?

Prediction: Twitter, a US-based company, will start distributing propaganda paid by the highest bidder. The general public will be none the wiser.
