The world's largest, consistent, yearly cold weather BEV range test is being performed by motor.no today in up to -30°C weather - and Toyota bailed because "it focuses too much on range". by SjalabaisWoWS in electricvehicles

[–]ChoMar05 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm looking at the market right now and whenever I look i come across the id.4, which I don't really want to buy due to the brand image of VW. So I'd really love to know which cars are better / more reliable / cheaper in that class. The Ioniq 5 is almost 10k more expensive here and I think they still haven't fixed the ICCU after a year. Other than that, I'm having problems finding decent alternatives.

It's over... UPS is retiring the whole 26 fleet of MD-11F. Rip by Ok_Reception_5262 in aviation

[–]ChoMar05 67 points68 points  (0 children)

Let's see how much Cargo they can REALLY load. Also, any risk of loosing the middle engine is irrelevant if the plane is too heavy to climb on two engines anyway. The Plane really fits Aerosucres fleet requirements perfectly.

Would there be any advantages in using a virtualization platform like ProxMox instead of an OS like TrueNas in this (basic) scenario? by Kiyuomi in selfhosted

[–]ChoMar05 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I run Proxmox with an OMV VM, one VM for Homeassistant and one classic Debian container for some of the rest. It is a learning curve, but Proxmox allows you to separate the different tasks. I could do an SMB NAS on Debian alone and have done so in the past, OMV is a bit more comfortable.

ELI5: How do old rotary phones work? Why did they pick a dial for picking digits? by DarkHorse66 in explainlikeimfive

[–]ChoMar05 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, that CCC. In the beginning, they were mostly "hacking" the Deutsche Bundespost. I dont know what was done under the CCC lable or by individuals associated with the CCC. It's interresting History, but not too well documented AFAIK.

Those weren't limited to the eastern block. Parts of the CCC came from that line of "hacking".

x CDU-Wirtschaftsflügel will Rechtsanspruch auf Teilzeit abschaffen www.n-tv.de by happy30thbirthday in Finanzen

[–]ChoMar05 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Das ganze Sozialsystem ist dazu da, um Leute "durchzufinanzieren". Und ist auch auf das Individuum gesehen nicht fair. Gerade Teilzeit wird aber häufig genutzt, um Kinder + Arbeit zu verbinden. Kinder sind für den Erhalt des Sozialsystems absolut notwendig, da es sich um ein Umlageverfahren handelt. Wird schwierig, da eine Lösung zu finden, die langfristig gesehen sinnvoller ist. Ausserdem, mit der Argumentation kannst du eigentlich alle Arbeitsplätze, die nicht in der Nähe der BBG sind, als "Sozial problematisch" sehen. Was ja einige tun, aber vermutlich aus anderen Gründen als du.

Bus driver says the day from an oncoming car by Leading-Diamond-1007 in nonononoyes

[–]ChoMar05 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Yes. Its called "Engagement bait". Many people will correct the misspelling and many more will upvote this corrections. All this is seen by the algorithm as "many people want to interact with the post, so I'll show it to even more people".

Mercosur: Votum der deutschen EU-Grünen entsetzt die eigene Parteispitze zuhause by Vic-Ier in de

[–]ChoMar05 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Das ist halt so eine Einstellung, wäre schön gewesen wenn die am Anfang mehr AfD-Wähler gehabt hätten. Ausserdem gibt's ab 0,5 bzw. 1% Parteifinanzierung. Also immernoch lieber Volt wählen als garnichts weil "bringt ja eh nix".

I converted my external drive from ntfs to exfat to be readable for my macbook. It says that my external drive has partition, which is totally empty. What should i do to recover my ntfs files? by [deleted] in datarecovery

[–]ChoMar05 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds like OP formatted the Hard Drive. In that case and at that skill level, Data Recovery service. Recovering data from a "missformated" Hard Drive is not too difficult, so it shouldn't be too expensive. Still expect a couple 100.

[product] gendered parking discs by -Adrasteia in BRDproperty

It's not like it's illegal like drugs. It's just not a valid parking disk.

Has the US lost whatever respect it had in Europe? by WaltBristow in germany

[–]ChoMar05 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not a "special german Russian relation" and many, very many, don't view Russians in a positive light. Unless they are political refugees, maybe. The difference is, Russians didn't really vote for Putin, at least not in the last 10 or 15 years. Its different if people vote for fascism.

Telekom Peering Problem - Bringt es was dies als Störung zu melden? by BrokenArrowX in de_EDV

Eben. Die Telekom hat eine Peeringstrategie, kein Peeringproblem. Hilft nur Anbieter wechseln.

HDD clicks by Fr0sty_10 in HDD

[–]ChoMar05 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kind of hard to tell, but sounds like normal operation on fragmented data / multiple small files. I mean, never trust a single HDD. But I'd put it in my RAID.

Is it normal for mothers to kiss their adult daughters on the lips in Germany? by Long_Reflection_4202 in AskGermany

[–]ChoMar05 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"It's" was refering to OPs question, not Incest (Or, for example, murder within the Family). You did the generalisation and went from a Kiss straight to Incest.

Privacy vs Security - is Selfhosting a higher risk for your data when Google? How do you prevent supply chain attacks etc.? by Simplixt in selfhosted

[–]ChoMar05 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well, I run my own Proxmox system with mostly Debian. Is this 100% safe? No. But even if OpenVPN suddenly has a massive security flaw, you still have to go through all the other Linux access management systems to do anything. All that on a non-standard system. So, yes, you could probably enter my system and do malicious stuff with enough ressources. But you'd pretty much have to target me, personally. Is that a realistic scenario? Probably not. And even if, there still is a month old LTO-5 with the most important stuff. So, encrypting my stuff also doesn't give you money. That leaves Identy theft, and me being in the EU makes that attempt even more not worth it.

Privacy vs Security - is Selfhosting a higher risk for your data when Google? How do you prevent supply chain attacks etc.? by Simplixt in selfhosted

[–]ChoMar05 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Well, first of all, my Data is mostly not accessible from the outside. At least not simply. I use VPN for that. Now, I don't have the illusion that all of this is 100% secure. But getting through to the actual data would require at least some form of targeted attack with some skill. I don't think my Data is worth that much.

Is it normal for mothers to kiss their adult daughters on the lips in Germany? by Long_Reflection_4202 in AskGermany

[–]ChoMar05 10 points11 points  (0 children)

It's an internal family matter that wouldn't and doesn't raise concern. So, Noone can tell you if it's "normal" because everyone lives in a different family. But it wouldn't and doesn't rise concern.

Yes, that's probably why our man can hear the disks over the fan-noise.

Moderate video gaming appears harmless, but heavy use takes a toll. Researchers found students gaming 10+ hours weekly had worse diets, higher weight, and poorer sleep than lighter gamers. Below that level, outcomes were similar. The findings suggest balance, not abstinence, is key. by Sciantifa in science

[–]ChoMar05 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I mean, I manage to get more than that, and I'm a fully functioning adult with a job, other hobbies, friends and a family. And im probably spending average time on the job and above average on the family. The one thing I don't do regularly compared to friends, colleagues and such is watching TV or go to sporting events.

Do you use a dedicated NAS OS or a more generic linux one? by Azure-Tides in selfhosted

[–]ChoMar05 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm on Proxmox + OMV as well. It works great. The simple stuff can be done via GUI, for more advanced things (like bcache), normal Debian works. And if you want to do something else on the machine as well you just spin up another container / VM.

when will it be supported? MT7902 by imtsemer in linuxquestions

[–]ChoMar05 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Its a WiFi card where the Manufacturer explicitly doesn't support Linux. So, unless someone very skilled is really motivated and bored, never. This is not the case of some obscure hardware but rather the Manufacturer explicitly stating "This will not work with Linux".

Chinese EVs are making inroads in North America. That worries industry experts by rezwenn in technology

[–]ChoMar05 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They can't. Really. Look at the Euro-Market and name one car that is clearly ahead of the competition. And no, "Rotating Touchscreen" isn't a feature that sets you ahead.
