Die 90% hat sich sich jemand aus dem Arsch gezogen. 90% wovon denn bitte?! Immer wieder dieselben Mist Argumente. Und in der Zwischenzeit sieht es das BKA nicht als ihre Aufgabe an, bekanntes CSAM von File Hostern entfernen zu lassen

It will surely help significantly preventing a tactical nuclear strike from russia, though it won't end the war. It is an absolute last resort trigger. Ukraine will be annihilated after they use it (Russia has way more nuklear weapons).

So somewhat good for them and OK to do so, though no solution and no substitution for western military aid.

A few months ago a german activist (I think it was Arne Semsrot) wrote a book about how low and middle positions in government agencies can work against the governments intentions in case of a extreme right wing takeover by the AFD. Though I don't know, if it was translated to english or would be 1 to 1 applicable to the USA.

Imagine Harry and Hermione getting a card of them, but not Ron. inferiority complex intensifies

And: Who doesn't want to die a gruesome death should not go into this specifoc corridor on that storey. But hey, have fun finding your classroom with all the doors and stairs, that so often lead to random different places.

We have a saying here, which would also fit for Hogwarts: Up to 10% lost is still OK XD

Though having cash is not enough. The stores also need to be able to accept cash without internet usage. I think we had a case in germany a few years ago, where some supermarkets could not sell anything, because the servers, to which the local payment system connected (also uses for cash) didn't work. Not sure, if that was because of a security incident.

Common insult in germany for people being too stereotypically german. Used it on multiple occasions :D

In germany - I think - blood and plasma donations are most commonly done with the DRK (German Red Cross). I might be wrong, but DRK is not a for profit organization, but "gemeinnützig". Organizations with that status get controlled by the government for it, so they are non-profit. I think the 25€ are an incentive to come and donate, just as the chocolate and drinks and the small goodies, that you get there. And you only can get the money, if you go to one of the fixed DRK locations. If the DRK comes to somewhere near you (as they often do with churches, town halls, schools and universities) you don't get any money. I can at least believe, that these two are monetarily similar for the DRK. If you come to them, they don't need to pay for getting the equipment and people to you. And providing incentives for donating blood is in effect a good thing, as they are working, thus we have more blood to save lifes.

Ofcourse actors later in the chain are probably profit oriented. Though there I would see the discussion disconnected from the donation. It is more about if we want profit oriented actors in healthcare.

And - as always - the US healthcare system seems to do the worst thing possible every time. Sorry, americans, don't want to bash you, but capitalism...

An interesting customer base might be small communal organisations. At our local scouts troop I had a discussion with a friend, who is also in IT. His idea (not fleshed out) was to provide small local organizations with a stack of already configured open source software to support the typical needs of such organizations (like a wordpress website, a nextcloud for file storage and common calender, limesurvey for surveys and event registration, mailman3 for mailing lists,...). Depending on the needs you could sell the initial setup process (your personal work in setting up and skill transfer) or ongoing support. Though such organizations normally don't have much money to give away. So probably its not really worth your time financially (though probably really appreciated in the community).

And probably thinking like "That kid is not even in school yet and already causing hassle for me. Will be good 7 years with him in my house"

Though in the books he is also an insecure asshole to harry and hermione again and again - until he comes around this in Deathly Hallows. Its basically rons character arc to overcome his insecurities.

Hi,

I need help with my first homelab hardware. Maybe you experts can help me with that. I looked at this tutorial about building your own Openshift one node cluster using an Intel NUC, though I’m unsure, if I really should buy one of these.

I have set a budget of 1000€ (I’m located in germany). The tutorial suggests the Intel NUC10i7FNK, which I can get for 450€ new here (would buy 64GB RAM and a 2TB M.2 SSD for that). And I would follow the tutorial in getting a dedicated router for my lab environment.

Can I get more for my money (also in terms of upgradability) with some other product? Or should I just get that suggested NUC? I don’t need it to be that small (can be a tower), but I don’t want real server hardware, since the lab will run in my home office.

Thanks in advance for your help. My brain hurts from comparing products, searching for their availability, etc.

EDIT:

I've now decided to buy the NUC10i7FNK. It seems to be a sensible choice and the tutorial says, that it has enough beef for my first goal of building my own Openshift cluster for experimenting.

Thanks to all of you! You helped me to get to a good decision in this wide field of home lab equipment.

 

Ich habe gerade einen Text wiedergefunden, den ich vor etlichen Jahren geschrieben habe, und dachte, ich könnte den mal teilen. Wurde damals durch meinen Vater inspiriert, der als Markscheider im Bergbau tätig und sehr davon begeistert war. Ich hoffe er gefällt euch.

Einst, vor langer Zeit anno domini XXXXVMCMIIIrömischeZahlenmachenmichverrückt3 da erfanden die Gebrüder Fred und Ingwer Net etwas, das eine große Ära des Wohlstandes auslösen sollte. Und sie erfanden es aus der Not und dem Wunsch heraus, immer wissen zu wollen, wo sich ihr heißgeliebtes zahmes Hausnashorn namens Inter befinde. Zu seinen Ehren nannten sie es das Inter-Net. Ja damals, in einstiger Zeit, als Internetanbieter noch ein ehrbarer Beruf war. Das Erz der wertvollen Bits und Bytes wurde noch per Hand von feinen und arbeitssamen Bergmännern aus den Untiefen der Erde geschürft, ja, das war noch Arbeit für richtige Männer. Oh wie heißt es doch in dem unendlich besungenem Bergmannslied: Glück auf, Glück auf! Der Byte-Mann kommt. Und da tragen sie das Smartphone vor dem Arsch bei der Nacht, ja da tragen sie das Smartphone vor dem Arsch bei der Nacht! Und posten es a--uch und postens auch. Und da hörte es noch nicht auf! Einmal ans Licht des Tages gebracht übernahmen die ehrenwerten Hüttenleute und ihre Arbeit war so anstrengend wie schweißtreibend. In der glühenden Hitze der Flamestorms schmolzen sie den nun glühenden Hass heraus, geboren aus den Teilen der Erde, die nicht für die Erschaffung eines reinen Inter-Netzes geeignet sind, die da wären: Trolle, Nazis, Salafisten und ähnliches Gesocks, dass sich des Nachts in den Bergwerksstollen in den dunkelsten rechten oder religiösen Ecken herumtreibt. Die reinen Bits und Bytes, nun gegossen in stahlharte Pakete, gelangten nun zu ihrer letzten Station, nur noch wenige Schritte von ihrer Vollendung entfernt. Männer, groß wie Kleiderschränke und muskelbepackt wie Eber, schlugen nun auf die Pakete ein, verbanden sie mit den Stoffen http und PHP zu einem harten und doch biegsamen Ganzen und zwangen es durch ihre pure Willenskraft in seine endgültige Form. Die meisten dieser Männer wurden Systemarbeiter genannt, aber nur die härtesten durften sich Administratoren nennen. Und so konnte damals noch ganze Fässer handgemachten Internetzes an die Menschen dieses Landes ausgeliefert werden.

Doch wo sind wir hingenommen? Heutige Anbieter, die die Verträge aus ihrem Arsch ziehen und sie dir als Gold verkaufen wollen, haben keinen Sinn mehr für die Ästhetik eines ehrenwerten, lohndumping- und überwachungsfreien Internetzes. In diesen Zeiten, in denen durch Massenproduktion in jeder Sekunde mehr Internet an jeden von uns geliefert wird, als früher an einem vollen Tag hergestellt werden konnte, haben wir das Gefühl für den Wert dieser Daten verloren. Wir werfen sie der Welt zu Füßen, stellen unser gesamtes Leben online, weil es bestimmt jemanden interessiert, was ich heute zu essen hatte und welche Konsistenz ich in meinem Stuhlgang festgestellt habe. (Interessanterweise entspricht das auch dem Inhalt der meisten Posts bei Gesichtsbuch und Sofort Bild Abkürzung: Scheiße) Wir kaufen beim Online-Händler, nur damit er uns analysieren kann. Warum gehen die Leute nicht gleich zum Proktologen, wenn sie wollen, dass man ihnen in den Arsch kriecht. Und auch ich bin so jemand. Auch meine Daten sind dort draußen und schippern den Amazonas hinab, weiter getragen vom Corporate Marketing und Big Data. Manchmal, wenn ich abends im Dunkeln ganz allein auf den Wellen des Internet surfe, dann wird mir wehmütig und ich vermisse meine lieben Daten. Sie sind nicht die besten, aber sie sind meine. Und dann gedenke ich ganz im Stillen den starken und ehrenwerten Männern des Internet-Bergbaus. Glück auf!

 

Hi,

I'm rather new to web development. For my local scouts troop I'm currently trying to build a webapp to show a big browsable timeline of the troops chronicles (We have many big folders of paper showing what the scouts did that year). I've already build the ground structure based on Django for the backend and vue for the frontend. And I can display the individual elements of the chronicles (Writings, articles, pictures; videos and audio for newer entries) in a list.

Now I want to create a component, that will display a horizontal timeline with the ability to move and zoom, showing elements depending on the zoom level with different level of detail. I want to make it easy to browse the timeline of over 70 years with entries per year (like 30 elements per year).

I already tried timeline-js, but it doesn't quite behave like I want it to be (zooming, different levels of detail,...). For me it seems, that it cannot really be customized enough to reach my goal (though I might be wrong about that).

Then I thought about building that timeline component myself, though I don't know where to start in building such a component (how to draw the timeline itself with its markings, how to draw the elements at the correct position,...)

Can you give me a hint/direction where I should look for a solution? Maybe you know a tutorial for a similar situation (creating your own complex UI components)?

Thanks in advance for your help! Currently I feel like I don't know enough to ask the correct question to a search engine for a solution.
