Repair what’s broken, slap Linux on them and donate to charities.

Recycling companies?

There might be some old Ladas around.

[…] and what owners can do next.

Sell their Porsche and buy a car that can’t be locked remotely?

To show that this whitewashing is an international problem I would like to refer to the page of our “beloved” Chancellor Friedrich Merz. For years the running gag (and fact) about him was that his German article starts with “Friedrich Merz is a lobbyist and politician”. In this order. Lobbyist first, politician second.

Well, I am impressed by what it can do. I am unimpressed by what higher ups claim it can do.

What do you use the Trackpads for? I never felt the need so far and always wondered why they are there in the first place.

Yes, we have stuff like HTTPS nowadays, but I think that given a certain importance of an application, transfered data should be encrypted on the application level as well.

One thing that comes to mind is that you might find a lot of instances with only a few or even one user because they are intended as personal mirrors.

I guess one way to counter this is to check whether registration is enabled.

I’ve recently noticed a lot of new accounts which post a whole series of news articles and then get deleted. Notot fake news or conspiracies but mostly reputable sites. No idea what’s going on there.

What’s your experience with the vaccination so far? I’ve heard it can be pretty brutal in terms of side effects such as fever and more.
