  • Yay. I ride Pirelli ones, but RideNow from Aliexpress are fine too. They are lighter and better rolling, more compact and I feel they are less likely to puncture (and if they do, more likely to puncture with a slow leak so you might get home just by re-inflating it). There are no downsides compared to butyl imo, besides the price (which isn’t an issue if you get cheap ones from China) and I puncture so rarely I don’t care about the added cost.










  • I have a PC running Windows 11 Professional that I use exclusively for gaming. It works fine for that and it doesn’t annoy me with OneDrive or Copilot etc.

    I’m open to switching to Linux on that machine if Windows starts to annoy me, but as it stands Windows runs all my games without issues and I can’t be arsed messing with things that aren’t broken.

    I wouldn’t dream of running Windows on a computer used for anything other than gaming though. Currently I use a Mac as a daily driver, but I’ve also used Linux in the past. The main reason for using macOS is that I spend too much time messing with computers at work to want to do it in my free time too. The Apple ecosystem makes it easy to have everything integrated without much effort. I’m aware it’s probably an unpopular opinion around here.



  • Surely it should deny any requests to put people in bikinis, regardless of whether they’re dead or not. And based on my attempts of pushing the limits of various AI models (admittedly I haven’t tried recently), to create weird stuff, it’s definitely possible. At least without some creative jailbreaking. I haven’t seen this guy’s prompt, but if he straight up requested “put this woman in a bikini” it should absolutely refuse. That’s not to let the guy making the request off the hook, but X is clearly to blame too.



  • Klar kannst du das beweisen, aber hat innerhalb der Gruppierung dann nur einer den Schlüssel? Oder mehrere? Dann hast du das Problem wieder nur verschoben. Es gibt dann zwei neue signierte Schlüssel von den beide mit dem alten Schlüssel signiert sind und behaupten der legitime Nachfolger der Volksfront von Judä… äh Vulkangruppe zu sein.

    Jedes Mitglied könnte auch einen eigenen private key haben mit denen der Schlüssel der für Bekennerschreiben genutzt wird verschlüsselt wird, damit er nur genutzt werden kann, wenn alle zustimmen. Oder man organisiert das irgendwie anders (z.B. jede:r hat eine Kopie vom Schlüssel aber man einigt sich den nur zu nutzen wenn es einen Konsens dafür gibt). Klar könnte es dann bei einer Spaltung Probleme geben oder wenn einzelne sich nicht daran halten, aber man könnte auf jeden Fall verhindern, dass False Flags durch z.B. Russland im Namen der Gruppe durchgeführt werden.

    Ganz davon abgesehen, dass du ein sehr starkes Indiz für deine Schuld produzierst, wenn der private Schlüssel bei dir irgendwo auf dem USB Stick gefunden wird.

    Das lässt sich mit vernünftiger OpSec wohl leicht verhindern. Man lässt einfach nicht den Key irgendwo unverschlüsselt rumliegen.

    Das ist, wenn du das öffentlich verifizieren kannst (z.B. deine Webseite zeigt auf den Schlüssel) gut brauchbar. Für geheime Gruppen nur bedingt nützlich.

    Das stimmt schon, aber du kannst zumindest verifizieren, dass mehrere Aktionen von der gleichen Gruppe durchgeführt wurden.




  • Last time I drank. I already had a drinking problem and it was the only way I knew how to quiet my mind, so it escalated. After a few months I quit (still sober 6 years later), went to therapy, let myself feel the loss and talked about it. After a while you realise that you haven’t thought about it all day, maybe all week. You don’t forget the person and the feeling of loss stays with you, but with time it stops feeling overwhelming. But you have to let yourself feel it first.


  • I think I’d be fine if I had to use eSIM (when I get a new phone every few years, I touch the SIM exactly once to move it to the new phone and then forget it even exists until the next phone).

    I still like having a physical SIM though and haven’t converted it, even though I could. I like the idea that, if my phone dies, I can easily switch it into a new phone (even someone else’s). I don’t think I’ve ever done that, at least not since the days of dumb phones with limited/expensive plans, but I like to know I could. The only downside is that I have to enter the SIM PIN if I restart my phone.


  • You need to go at it with the right attitude and be okay with rejection and FOMO (the main business model of dating apps). I’d recommend meeting in person early and moving on quickly if it’s clearly not going to work out. Be nice to the people on the other end!

    Stil, I don’t really like dating apps. The way they monetise preys on people’s emotions in a pretty ugly way. It’s also sad that capitalism even commodifies love/relationships. But as a person who struggles with meeting people in person I can’t deny they help. And considering I met my wife through a dating app, I can’t really argue with the results.
