Bavaria was a very agricultural heavy state, that made a few things right in the last few hounded years. Bavaria has like every over German state a long and rich independent history. Only Bavarian nationalists dream of an independent Bavaria. Hitler joined the NSDAP in Munich and it was one of it’s early strongholds. Most German cities were destroyed in WWII. Germany did not “pay” reparations, because they still had a lot of open dept from WWI. They paid with land, factories, infrastructure and forced labor. What the guide meant was probably the so-called “soli”. It is a special tax that was levied from former Westgerman states to support former GDR states, which did not develop as much under the socialist rule. That tax was and is controversial and was changed to nowadays only applie to richer people.

Bavaria was always a big state in german, that tries to play a special role. Especially their main party the CSU participated in German politics, while enforcing predominantly Bavarian Interests. These methodes were obviously anti democratic but only borderline illegal and forced the government to restructure the parliament.

So yea. I grew up in Bavaria and I get why most Germans are quite annoyed with bavarians.

It is the German Texas.

Isn’t that the tool that let’s you brute force weak encrypted containers? I remember saving my sister that got a pin secured container and the pin was coming over mail/on a different channel (she needed it as fast as possible)…

Well it was a 4 digit pin and my very old notebook took a few hours. Even less if my sister would have told me that it was a 4 digit nummeric pin and not alphanumeric.

So yea. Hashcat will be your friend. Afaik can also take guesses.

Do not remember the video but isn’t that the whole problem: LEDs like to be cooler. Bright pretty LEDs get hoter. People buy smaller prettier bulbs. Things have a tradeoff independent of price. A small bright LED that is in an enclosed space will not last long. Recommend buying pretty LEDs and using them without enclosure or buying dimmable and setting them to 50% on default.

And not buying the integrated shit.

Yea it is crazy. Like most German ministries have their own mastodon Account and sprinkle in some news. And like some news channels have at least a Twitter relay.

Tech and scientists moved in big waves, so to be fair: I switched with the first waves and am fine. Yes I am using it less then I was using Twitter, but less social media is never bad.

I never used a mac, but if you want to have a machine that just works, you have the coin and are not power User enough, that the wierd quirks annoy you, Mac could be for you.

Don’t get me wrong but Windows sucks for non computer people. Mac’s have the “do not bother me I do not care” options.

Additionally a lot of creative stuff is focused on mac’s. Music, photography, design is at least optimized if not sometimes exclusive for osx.

And do not forget that if you want to have devices that “just work” and you do not care how or why, having all apple devices must be nice. No compatibility tinkering, seamless backups and transfers, etc. Things get better now on other systems but try explaining an older tech illiterate person over phone how to get her photos from the phone to her notebook…

I mean didn’t they achieve that? Today a lot of things are web based. Firefox is a powerful browser. Especially on Android. So if you want you can have your OS in a browser thingy…

Be aware that Firefox Android supports addons. So maybe there is already a fix…

There is a project called Mozilla? Afaik it is the company name? What is it?
