  • Musste mein Trauma teilen. V.a. weil er in einem Interview mal erzählt hat,wie die Damen reagierten, wenn sie darunter aufwachten und es nicht vorher gesehen haben.

    Stell dir vor,du wachst auf als Frau. Realisiert es ist nicht dein Bett. Erinnerst dich,dass deine Freundinnen Veronika und Karin dich zu so ner Teutonia Feier mitgeschleppt haben. Und weil es ohne nicht auszuhalten war,hast dich zulaufen lassen wie alle anderen. Und nun wachst du auf. Langsam öffnest du die Augen UND FRANZ JOSEF STRAUẞ schaut dich von der Decke an. Und neben dir hörst du: “Fesch der Titan der Wordde,Schnegge. Und ich bin der Maggus!” …von einer Dose mit Haaren.



  • Worked as a paramedic around the world for two and a half decades now. Saw a lot of shit.

    But the worst one was when I was teamleader of a neonatal critical care transport service. That was…not something I could do for long. There is an amount of dead babies people can see in their lifetime. I ignored my limit and now have to face the consequences.


  • Their solution to central management (Capsman) is a burning mess, when WiFi6 came out for a long time(I think 2 years) you were unable to keep older and newer APs on the same controller, so you needed two Capsman instances. Roaming between them is very unreliable and generally their hardware is underwhelming in terms of antenna quality, etc.

    For one AP it is not as bad, but still annoying, if you want to centrally manage more APs it is a nightmare.

    I replaced my MK APs with Omada with the software controller on a LXC and couldn’t be happier - they play along nicely with my MT infrastructure and are way more reliable.

    I really love MT,but not their WiFi.





  • I don’t think Trump would be worse for them. It might actually part of their strategy.

    • While Trump was worse for them back then when he wanted to play “hardass”, it’s a different situation now. He is far more isolationist than before.

    • Harris has always backed both Israel and Ukraine. Both things are bad from a Iranian regime POV. For them it is much more desirable if Trump stops aid to Ukraine and Putin wins the war - which will keep Europe occupied for decades, out of their way in the middle east and very likely is favourable in a lot of ways to them. If Putin looses it will very likely mean a regime change in Russia - and the chances that Iran looses their last relevant ally are fairly big.

    • The same goes for Israel itself. Trump might have played “nice” with Bibi the last time,but it’s another situation now. If shit hits the fan even more than it does now, Trump will do whatever his base back home likes most. And while most of them are surely deeply against Muslims, they are also/maybe even more antisemitic. And if Trump will do nothing in a situation like that, he wins in the eyes of his powerbase (while Israel and the middle east as a whole looses). The only thing risky for Iran in that situation is the fact that Trump would be far less likely to restrain Bibi. But Bibi is on the way out anyway.

    • It might also simply be an “suggestion” from the Iranian “friends” in Moscow to influence things a little. Someone asks for a favour because a second crisis area puts the focus away from ones own front yard. And having an old friend/employee in the oval office surely helps.

    • Let’s not forget the perversion of regimes like Iran: A conflict with an old enemy can be a very stabilising factor for a dwindling regime. The lack of restraint Israel showed in Gaza and Libanon put even the more moderate forces in the middle east but also within Iran back on the “Israel is the arch-enemey” line. This is the point where the regime now can unite more moderate parts of their internal as well as external stakeholders behind a common cause with a slight “we told you so!”. That is sadly very much a benefit from a prolonged conflict for them.(Which Trump is far more likely to enable them to sustain)

    Anyway: Iran would be surely worse off with Harris - so they might have a lot of incentive to do what they can to get Trump into office.



  • They set up a business. They do business. They should ask someone to do this whose business it is. Not you. They are taking advantage of you.

    You will certainly and 100% ruin your friendship with them.

    • Keeping a server secure is an ordeal for a professional - especially when it comes to using it as a business server.

    • Doing E-Mail yourself, especially in a professional capacity, is a god damn nightmare and even most professionals refuse to do it and rather pay someone who handle it. For a reason.

    • The usecase you mentioned does not require a server. It can easily be done via a web hosting provider. Unless there is something shaddy going on and you/they are afraid of storing that stuff with a provider. But for what you mention here you need a simple web hosting provider for 5 bucks a month.

    • Actually doing that yourself is far more complicated than you imagine here. It’s not just the server. How do you get a connection with a static IPv4 to host your services? Actually preferably multiple static IPs? Are you considering a CloudFlare tunnel? How do you plan redundancy if that connection craps out? Or the server kicks the bucket. Or power goes out? This alone costs FAR more than the money you pay for a cheap webhoster or even a VPS. (Which you don’t need,imho)

    For the love of god or whoever: Don’t do that. You will be liable/responsible to them (at least from their point of view) if their IP is on Googlemails blacklist and now “that one important client mail did not arrive in time”. Or if the cheap residential DSL craps out and their very important site is just having the sale of their life?

    I am absolutely for self-hosting things, don’t get me wrong. I selfhost basically everything (but no mail…that is a shitshow), mostly on FOSS. But don’t start with someone else’s business if you start doing this. Selfhost a few easy things. Get a Mini PC and proxmox, selfhost within your home network, then expand slowly.





  • Was Panzer angeht nur bedingt - Verteidigung erfolgt traditionell wenig mit Panzern und du kannst mit einem Infanteriezug mit den richtigen Panzerabwehrwaffen problemlos einen ganzen Panzerzug (4 Panzer bei der BW) zerlegen wenn du weißt wie - was die Ukrainer ja im Vorgehen gegen den Konvoi auf Kiev bewiesen haben.

    Offensiv können die Ukrainer scheinbar ihre deutlich kleineren Bestände meist relativ gewinnbringend einsetzen. (So gesehen in der letzten Offensive, auch in Cherson. Zwischendrin mal ziemlich reingefallen) Das Problem da sind im Bereich Panzer eher die unendliche Anzahl an Minen und die Tatsache,dass es massiv an Artilleriemunition fehlt und die Russen immer noch eines gut können: Stellungen bauen (das wohl sogar besser als die Ukrainer,da hört man viel Kritik von den Expats die dort kämpfen), mit alten Rohren viel Artillerie “so grob in die Richtung schicken”,wohl wissend,dass es die Masse macht und v.a. arme Schweine in Massenangriffe schicken die dann von eigenen Blockeinheiten am Rückzug,tlw.sogar an der Verwundetenevakuierung gehindert werden. Und da sprechen leider die Zahlen gegen die Ukrainer-solange der Westen nicht endlich massiv seine eigene Produktion hoch fährt,auch wenn es kostet und unbequem ist, kann Putin das schlicht aussitzen. Oder wie sprach ein ukrainischer Bekannter so schön: “Putin braucht nur 2-3x Glück haben. Wir müssen jeden Tag Glück haben.”

  • Linux Foundation is a US foundation but Linus lives in the US and is bound by the laws there but depending who wins the vote these sanctions might not matter for long anymore if Putins orange wins.

    But he is also still a citizen of Finland- which is bound by very similar EU sanctions. And the Finish police is known to take these things seriously, as do a lot of other EU countries (not all of them,sadly. Hungary and Italy don’t give a shit,for example). So if he fucks things up here he might have two major legal targets painted on his back-both the FBI and a bunch of EU law enforcement agencies under Europol can massively hinder his further travel options.

    In the end there is a lot to lose for him and Linux(him being persecuted, companies pulling funding from the association) and little to gain(feeling edgy and being applauded by Russian shills)when he keeps these maintainers.

    And tbh, from the outside it looks like a fair process was followed.
