Seen in London (apparently)
  • At least VW is kinda open about it, and as far as I know, they even built a memorial…

    I mean, the least thing as a company you can do now, is to be open about everything and make an effort that this shit never happens again!

  • After 40 years of being free Microsoft has added a paywall to Notepad
  • After taking a look at the pictures of the article, I noticed “requires AI credits”. Credits?! What is this now? Some shitty mobile game? Really, Microsoft isn’t ashamed of anything anymore…

    I mean, I don’t know about Microsoft and windows, so maybe this is different, but the name sounds crazy!

  • XDG_CONFIG_HOME
  • I actually use chromium to do watch party’s. As you can disable hardware acceleration and for some reason the Netflix DRM doesn’t work anymore. (So I can stream the video to friends on dc)

    But otherwise I never had problems with Firefox.

  • ‘The tyranny of apps’: those without smartphones are unfairly penalised, say campaigners
  • Understandable. In Germany it isn’t customary to have an AC, but I got one. It’s from Mitsubishi and has some cloud remote control app thing. I mean, ok, controlling the temperature from not home is maybe useful, but I haven’t and will never use it. I just set the Temperature and go on Auto mode…

  • Thats actually pretty nice. And on the subject of cars: I don't get why (some) people with E-Cars say they are so much "greener" and then use like 10 different apps for the car, recharging, etc. Those servers produce so much, really, so god damn much CO2... (Not saying combustion engines are better, but...)

  • McDonald’s (in Germany at least) needs your location to “see when you arrive at the restaurant”. What the hell?! That doesn’t even work properly and they force it on me! I uninstalled the app and now I am actually happy, because without the promotion and discount stuff, I don’t eat McDanks that often anymore.
