Über eine Methode namens Client-Side-Scanning könnte dann bereits vor dem Verschicken eines Bildes oder Videos dieses gescannt werden - die Verschlüsselung des Messengers selbst würde dann nicht angetastet.

Das nervt mich maximal, dass ständig an der Definition von Ende-zu-Ende-Verschlüsselung gezerrt wird. Die “Enden” müssen offensichtlich die Kommunikationspartner sein.

Wenn ein Ende zum BSI führt, oder die Enden frühzeitig gekappt werden, um dort alles unverschlüsselt anschauen zu können, dann ist die Verschlüsselung gebrochen. Das ist ein klassischer Man-in-the-Middle-Angriff. Jeder Sicherheitsexperte bezeichnet das als kompromittiert.
Zu behaupten, die Verschlüsselung würde nicht angetastet, ist einfach nur Grütze.

That’s hilarious, that the three sections of a bilateral body plan are two times brain and then the rest. I guess, it’s the lowest common denominator, though, as you can’t really section off a snail, for example.

Would be interesting whether the starfish larvae have tissue that’s genetically the trunk.
Wikipedia tells me that apparently the adult mouth forms on the left side of the larva body, the adult anus on the right side, so it’s certainly not as simple as just the trunk shortening until the head remains.

Damn, I think that’s two bass trombones. It certainly sounds it.

Yeah, that’s how they get you and then they stab you in the back, when you least expect it.

In German, it’s called “Satz vom Igel” (verbatim: “Sentence from the hedgehog”). Sounds like some fable. 🙃

In particular, that they signed a 20-year-long deal. I’m guessing that gets them lower prices, and it is Microsoft, so I would expect them to weasel out of that contract somehow. But still just wild to me that they would even consider such a long-running contract for technology that’s been around for barely a fraction of that.

I think, it works kind of well in games where you’re able to enslave/recruit the random encouters (Pokémon, Shin Megami Tensei and such), as it’s then a surprise what you’ll find, somewhat like a slot machine.
But the way the more recent entries work in these series, that you find out what creatures roam the world by exploring, that kind of works, too.

More generally, I don’t particularly like the problem that random encounters solve. Which is that you’ve got sections of gameplay where nothing happens, so you throw enemy encounters into there. That also goes for non-random encounters.

RPGs do this and I used to enjoy RPGs as a form of escapism. But now that I’m doing more stuff in real-life, I want it condensed down in roguelike form, or I’ll just play other genres…

Are you sure about that?

Well, uh, mine is Kate. Not sure, if you need much selling on that, then.

I use it with an LSP server to provide highlighting and refactorings for Rust. Other languages are available.

The project-wide search & replace feature is really useful. It’s available from the bottom bar.

In the settings, you can activate the “Filesystem Browser” plugin, which I sometimes prefer compared to the Projects view or the Documents view.

You can search for features with Ctrl+Alt+i.

In general, though, it’s lightweight and easy to use. It’s not going to win an award for a riveting new usage concept, which is why I like it.

Seems like they just asked people “Would you be willing to give up owning a car for good?” and then people got to respond with:

• Yes, definitely
• Yes, probably
• No, probably not
• No, definitely not

It’s described in the report on pages 19, 20 and 150.

The five on the left are where cars are most dispensable, and the five on the right are where cars are least dispensable.

There’s two alternatives currently in development, inZOI from the PUBG devs, and Paralives from a smaller indie studio.

I frequently hear them dubbed “Daily Hate Mail”.

As I wrote elsewhere already, I’m not saying that it’s not available in stores. I’m saying that a sizeable portion of the population didn’t grow up with it and therefore might not be terribly eager to try it.

Yeah, same. The game where that screenshot is from (DCSS) also has an ASCII mode, where that skeleton dragon would probably look like this: D

The text log would say that a skeleton dragon appeared, and I could even imagine a skeleton dragon by itself quite easily, but when it comes to a whole room full of monsters, then it’s just a lot of info to keep track of. The small textures are almost like icons, in that they’re a compact way of telling me where which monster is.

Yeah, I remember them running TV ads which were like “to give you the diabetes energy to start into the day”.

I mean, I might very well just be talking of my niche experience. My dad has probably never eaten anything with chickpea in it and is absolutely not interested in trying any new foods.

That also unfortunately includes trying Nutella alternatives. He’s been eating Nutella since the 70s and even though Ferrero has gradually made the recipe worse, he hasn’t noticed enough to want to try something else.

You could probably just as well gradually swap the milkpowder with chickpea + rice syrup and he wouldn’t notice either, but since they’re specifically marketing it as a separate variant, he’s just never going to try it.

Clearly, my dad is a special case. But I just feel in general that many non-vegans will not want to try the vegan variant, because its recipe is so different, whereas they could’ve also created a vegan variant that just doesn’t use milkpowder.

And yes, they will have done some market testing, which is why I’m asking ‘why’. Maybe they can sell the specifically-vegan variant at a higher price. Maybe chickpea and rice syrup are actually really cheap for them to get. Maybe they figured, they should introduce these ingredients to match the original Nutella’s taste as closely as possible, because otherwise people will just by the alternatives. There is probably some reason, I’d just like to know what it is.

Well, I’m from Southern Germany, so pizza has definitely arrived even in the most rural regions.

But rural regions is a good shout. I’m pretty sure, my dad has never eaten anything with chickpeas, at least not knowingly. Like, you can find it in the store, it’s easy enough to put a can of it on the shelves. And what’s also generally arrived in rural regions, is döner kebap, where I believe the shops will usually also have hummus available. But yeah, you still have to go out of your way to try it.
