  • Bei mir (ewig her) war der Druck und das Leiden schon jahrelang präsent, aber ich hatte quasi keine Bildung im Bezug auf trans Menschen und ihre Erfahrungen. Trans als Begriff war mir irgendwo bekannt, aber als abstraktes Konzept, nicht als Sache, die “ganz normale” Leute wie ich sein konnten.

    Hab irgendwann absolut zufällig einen Erfahrungs- bzw. Rauskommensbericht einer trans Frau gelesen, und mit ziemlicher Panik festgestellt: das ist 1:1 mein Erfahren und meine Gefühle. Oh fuck oh shit.

    Hat auf einen Schlag jahrelange Ängste und Leiden rekontextualisiert. Bin quasi in einem Nachmittag trans “geworden”.



  • At this point, package management is the main differentiating factor between distro (families). Personally, I’m vehemently opposed to erasing those differences.

    The “just use flatpak!” crowd is kind of correct when we’re talking solely about Linux newcomers, but if you are at all comfortable with light troubleshooting if/when something breaks, each package manager has something unique und useful to offer. Pacman and the AUR a a good example, but personally, you can wring nixpkgs Fron my cold dead hands.

    And so you will never get people to agree on one “standard” way of packaging, because doing your own thing is kind of the spirit of open source software.

    But even more importantly, this should not matter to developers. It’s not really their job to package the software, for reasons including that it’s just not reasonable to expect them to cater to all package managers. Let distro maintainers take care of that.






  • WHO IS GOING TO SELL THEM THEN?

    From what you keep repeating over and over in this thread, it seeks like you think the German state should seize Tesla’s assets and sell them off.

    That is an absolutely ridiculously unrealistic idea. But hey, let’s say you start campaigning for it TODAY. You start convincing all the “low average intelligence” people in order to get a sufficient portion of the population on board to sway politicians to seize Tesla.

    (Note that this is not 50%; for example, legalizing abortions has had far wider support in the German population for a long time, yet it’s not happened so far.)

    So let’s be really, REALLY optimistic and say, in 10 years you will be able to get a government voted in which enacts the seizure of Tesla assets, agaojat all corporate-backed influences and interests. And somehow change the Grundgesetz so Tesla can not spend years moving up the courts to prevent this.

    Do you see how this does nothing TODAY? I’m all for the systemic change; go vote and campaign in that direction, but here, in this comment section you are not offering a realistic or timely solution. Should nothing he done until your “perfect” solution becomes workable?





  • I’m sorry but how is anyone this dense?

    Yeah… asking myself the same question here.

    The position of the German state on EU topics has not changed significantly through this election. The Ampel-Coalition, CDU, and SPD each have roughly the same position on Ukraine. The fact that Germany will most likely have a 2-party coalition going forward does not change ANYTHING in the European Parliament. Those elections took place in June 2024, and will not be held again until 2029.

    That’s like saying “Oh, Oregon just had elections for their state government and the makeup of dems vs reps slightly shifted; this is huge for US foreign policy!”

    Sure, it can be a mood indicator, but as stated above, the actual positions are more or less the same, and the German state being a bit more swift to act thanks to a 2-party coalition is irrelevant for the day-to-day business and direction of the EU, which is governed by supra-national institutions unaffected by Germany’s elections.
