  • Volker Beck […] calls for Israel to permanently annex Gaza

    Where does he do that? (I know this is 4 days old.)

    Also all weapon deliveries needed approval by the Foreign ministry and the Economic ministry, both run by Green ministers, with the other Minister Habeck being now the “chancellor candidate” of the Green party.

    And there have been no weapons deliveries for the best part of 2024 (iirc, the last German weapons deliveries were in February), with the Greens stepping on the brakes there.



  • So for Android, the story is that Google really wanted to be able to keep the userland private whenever that fit their corporate agenda. Granted, they did take the time to modernize things and slim things down for mobile devices.

    As to the containerization thing: I don’t completely buy the bloat argument when it comes from the same kinds of people that think it’s a good idea to split applications into a million microservices, each running in their own container. What I do buy is managers worrying whether they need to release their super-secret proprietary code because they included a GPL’d component. Business distros are afraid include e.g. Ghostscript these days because Google T&C say they don’t want any AGPL software running in their cloud. I also know that engineers on regular distros have spent time trimming dependencies down to match Alpine, so you can get regular distros almost as small as Alpine images.




  • Your assignment of blame assumes that most people shouldn’t be involved in their democracies at all. But that’s kinda not how democracies are supposed to work. For the people, by the people.

    No doubt, the parties and the system share a large degree of the blame and they’re extremely far away from being perfect — but the notion that politicians have to come to you and dazzle you as a citizen is not excusable either.






  • In order to not fully dox myself, I’ll just say the following: I came after Nils and left before Melissa did. Around early 2021, I found myself suddenly thrown in Ivo/April calls and feeling tremendously unhappy, not just because Pandemic Year II sucked in general and team dynamic went to shit but also because these marketing folks were discussing not-so-grand grand ideas and blatant GDPR violations while sending literal hundreds of inexplicable 👏 emojis into the chat window of every call.
