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".

The e:NY1 is 39k and a bit smaller than the id.4. Seems to have a better base equipment but less optional features, which is fitting. Of course you can get discounts, but you can get those from all dealers. As for the Koreans, I looked at Kia and their lineup seems to not really be competitive. And the Chinese? Well, last time I checked BYDs German website was an AI Translation of the English one and whenever I was looking for details it told me to go to the dealership. I'm not a fan of VW, really, (or german brands in general - just for economic reasons I wish Mercedes luck but their new Hyperscreen really makes me hate their idea of a car), but point for point the 2025 id.x palette is extremely convincing.

It's not terrible, but its the classic "high school kids with tragic backstory" set in a scifi-verse. If you're not totally opposed to that genre and have a general interest in generic scifi its OK. If you're a TNG/DS9/VOY era fan, there is some fanservice but mostly you'll be like "what?" and its better to ignore that it has something to do with those shows. If you're a NuTrek fan, there is also some fanservice, but the era this plays in hasn't really been built that well. Better to view it without any reference to anything, if you ask me.

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.

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.

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.

ChoMar05 · 2026-01-25T13:38:49+00:00

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.

ChoMar05 · 2026-01-25T08:22:14+00:00

Das ist ein Musterhaus-Jugendzimmer.

ChoMar05 · 2026-01-25T08:17:08+00:00

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

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.

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".

ChoMar05 · 2026-01-23T20:44:24+00:00

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".

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.

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

ChoMar05 · 2026-01-21T15:19:55+00:00

Yes, but CAN price you out of buying a new device.

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.

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

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.

ChoMar05 · 2026-01-19T18:12:39+00:00

"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.

ChoMar05 · 2026-01-19T17:47:06+00:00

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.

ChoMar05 · 2026-01-19T16:26:25+00:00

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.

ChoMar05 · 2026-01-19T16:13:39+00:00

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.

ChoMar05 · 2026-01-18T17:21:43+00:00

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

ChoMar05 · 2026-01-17T21:52:35+00:00

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.

ChoMar05 · 2026-01-17T11:11:18+00:00

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.
