My PC has a i7-4790k overclocked to 4.5 GHz. It runs smoothly since I got it when it came out and it is still not a bottleneck in any of the games I play. But if I wanted to upgrade to Windows 11 I would need to buy a new CPU, new main board and new RAM, and it would not improve my gaming experience at all. It was my last machine running windows which I changed to Linux 2 months ago and I haven’t looked back.

What services do you think are worth letting them violate my rights to my personal information?

Oh yes please make Meta pull all their crap out of the EU. I can’t wait for it!

Ich kann die App KptnCook sehr empfehlen. Das Premium-Abo ist absolut nicht notwendig. Einfach jeden Tag reinschauen und alles was einem gefällt auf die Merkliste setzen. Dann hat man ganz schnell eine große Sammlung von Rezepten.

I’m not saying that rewriting he backend is a good choice, but for me specifically, I’d like Lemmy to be written in Java. Why? I’m a Java software engineer for nearly 7 years now and I’d like to contribute. Yes, I could learn Rust, like I did learn Go, C, C++ and other languages during my cs studies. But I really don’t have the free time and motivation to do that after I already worked 8-10 hours at my computer. If I could use my existing Java knowledge to quickly fix some small bugs or whatever, I’d love to do that. But the hurdle to learn a new language (including other paradigms and best practices) just to contribute to this one project is just too high for me.

I’m using Kagi for quite some time now and it’s awesome. But recently I was using a different machine and did not have my login credentials at hand so I used Google and holy shit I didn’t remember Google giving such aweful results. I was not able to find what I was looking for. Then searched the same thing on my phone through Kagi and the solution was in the first three results. So yes I also feel that Google search is getting worse.

Es gibt Studien die zeigen, dass der Placebo-Effekt sogar Eintritt, selbst wenn man weiß, dass es sich um ein Placebo handelt. Ist natürlich kein Argument für Homöopathie und schon gar nicht dafür, dass der Zucker teilweise von der GKV übernommen wird.

Yes. I know a bank where you’re trading fees are lower or even zero, depending on the size of your share portfolio.

I laughed at that, thank you!

Das tut mir sehr Leid, sowas sollten Eltern niemals sagen.

Ich finds schön, dass du erwähnst, dass man den Tortenboden nicht mit schütteln soll. Du bist dir unserer durschnittlichen Intelligenz scheinbar bewusst
