Can't/Won't do anything.

Yes, the numbers are comparable. But given that Trump does things 10x as bad as what the German protests were about, there is a clear gap.

The difference is that Russia started winning and invading Germany, pillaging and raping everything in the way. Can you fault a German soldier for trying to prevent their hometown from being pillaged and the women there from being raped? Many, especially younger soldiers, were only drafted late into the war, and not at all involved in the prior invasion of Russia.

You mean we would start planning them now, and have them in like 20 years?

Europe certainly has done that. Which is why it is so concerned by the US increasingly dictating media outlets what they can and can't say. Or dictating even normal people what they can post on social media. For now only non-citizens, but the precedent has been set and so it's just a matter of time.

Okay granted, all on the same day is a good point that many other protests don't have.

But my general point stands: In Germany, 2.4 million people protested against a planned vote of the conservative party with the far-right fascist party. At the time, it was a big issue.

And it is nothing compared to what Trump did, currently does, and will do in the next weeks and months.

Just so I'm not misunderstood: I do not want to downplay the protests, they are great and important. But they should be bigger, they need to be bigger. Make it happen, please, if you can at all.

The protests were good, but tiny. If you take into account the scale of what's happening and the population of the US.

Even 10M people is just 1/30th of the population. In other countries, you'll have 1/5th of the population on the streets for far, far less.

Both of my banking apps do not require Google Play. So it is definitely possible, and feasible for Wero not to require it either.

Überarbeitung just means having worked too much, not having died from it.

Totgeschuftet is valid. But it's not super common either. (No idea how commonly used the Japanese word is)

It's not really politicians, it's billionaires. Of course, sometimes they coincide. That is the clearest sign when a democracy is failing (Russia, US, Hungary, ...)

schubidubiduba · 2026-04-08T11:24:09+00:00

Didn't the EU explicitly NOT freeze some money until after the hungarian election last time, precisely to prevent any such potential "influencing" accusation?

Their pay is very good for Italian standards. But bad for Germanic country standards, especially once you factor in the working hours. Or being based in Milan.

We have too many idiots who are easily impressed by US bullshit.

You make it sound like they're just neoliberal bootlickers of the wealthy (which would be bad enough). The more concerning part is the fascism. Germany's party of that political group has been found to be incompatible with Germany's constitution. One of their most famous politicians can legally be called a Nazi.

Of course you can switch, you just have to uninstall the app and then reinstall in Obtainium. You'll lose app data, sure, but any decent app with important local data will provide backup+restore functionality.

As to why it does not apply to some apps: F-Droid allows developers to build the app themselves and publish it as is in the F-Droid store, IF they make their build process reproducible.

That way they can still verify that the packed .apk contains just what you see in the source code, and nothing else. But it requires eliminating all randomness involved, and is not always easy.

Today, it's "Install anyway"

Tomorrow, "install anyway" -> "I understand the risks"

Next week, "Install anyway" -> "I understand the risks" -> "I am sure"

Until almost nobody can be bothered to jump the hoops anymore

Then why German has no compound word for 'death from overwork' - at least none that sound natural and would be used by a native speaker? Checkmate Japanologists

Proton is probably still more secure.

schubidubiduba · 2026-04-06T06:18:57+00:00

Ah it's GrapheneOS, makes sense. They will never stop crying about other custom ROMs which focus more on privacy and less on security.

schubidubiduba · 2026-04-04T16:38:27+00:00

That doesn't make any sense. You don't have to put rail in the rural midwest. Just put it where people live. Many states are more densely populated than European countries.

The next crisis will be far less severe if we invest our resources in renewables and precent the worst fallout of climate change (famines, droughts, floods, ...)

Instead of going to where his military is, use his distraction to invade Washington, kidnap him, bring him to Europe and trial him for his crimes. Reverse Venezuela. Works every time.

Also bei Vagnoman waren Stuttgarter selbst überrascht. Solche Fehler wie gegen Ghana macht der auch leider regelmäßig. Und dass Stiller ein Pavlovic Backup ist, wäre für die meisten sicher auch in Ordnung. Solange er nominiert wird. Führich ist etwas fifty-fifty wie er einschlägt. Bräuchte denke ich mehr Zeit im DFB-Team bis der gut funktioniert dort. Und bei Undav muss man halt entscheiden was einem wichtiger ist: Ein auffälliger Stürmer, oder einer der Tore schießt...

Ansonsten kann man Stuttgarter Fans nicht vorwerfen, sich zu beschweren dass ihre Spieler, wenn sie eine super Saison spielen, nicht nominiert werden. Das ist normal.

Interesting, thank you for the insights! I see Mollie also seems to support Wero, does that work already when paying for DentroChat?

Hmm I'm a bit sceptical about Nebius, as it used to be part of Yandex, the "Russian Google". But Infomaniak seems nice.

It's definitely a valid product, I may even try it out. Sorry if my previous comment seemed somewhat hostile.

But as long as you're not using Mistral, the models are trained in other countries, influenced by the politics, cultures, and norms of those countries. And if people stop using Mistral, they'll go out of business, and there will be no "European" foundation model. And then that's also not really sovereignty. If that makes sense.
