I never said it’s a good idea. I was just saying that it’s true that that’s a thing in Germany.

I think it’s good that they lock it but I also think there shouldn’t be a way to unlock it apart from race track use.

That’s not true. Cars are normally capped at 250 km/h in Germany. But it’s completely legal to pay extra to get it removed.

Chef’s Plate started putting stickers on their boxes saying “Produced in Canada” and below it basically says ‘from international ingredients’.

Why does it look like Signal might introduce backdoors?

The amount of my students that wrote the whole email in the subject line is crazy. At first I thought it was a mistake or something. But there are sooo many…

They also don’t know what a file browser/explorer is. As soon as the download notification is gone, the file doesn’t exist anymore.

Giving files proper names? Unheard of!

Oh, in the videos I’ve seen they all look extremely young. But maybe that doesn’t paint the whole picture.

Ohh, did someone let their young population die in an invasion?!?

I think it’s important to note that Kagi uses Yandex, besides others, as a provider and pays them for it. Yandex is Russian owned. Might not be a deciding factor for everyone, but I personally think we shouldn’t pay money towards Russia. And the US for that matter…

This has been brought up multiple times and the Kagi CEO(?), Vlad, said this won’t change and Kagi doesn’t care about geopolitical stuff and just wants to offer the best search engine. Which is fair, but I think not supporting a tyrannical, war hungry government is important.

Yeah! To me LibreOffice just looks dated and, to be honest, shit. OnlyOffice has a much cleaner interface.

There is also filen.io from Germany.

Isn’t raindrop.io also Russian?

It’s about sending the message that the world doesn’t need the US.

Hi, nice to meet you. Where are you from? America. Oh, like Mexico or Chile?

It’s always fun to see their faces :)

80% of the stuff mentioned can be disabled. Not sure what the problem is. CEO is a dick though.

Ohh, that’s a good point!
