These results are just a drop in the bucket in relation to the grim state of German election results and overall societal discourse.

There's not much room for optimism right now. Very dark skies ahead and things may get much worse before they will become better.

In my workplace we worked tirelessly to get rid of all VMware VMs as fast as possible when new pricing became clear. Thousands migrated. What a huge fuckup by broadcom.

That so called regime is a travesty. Hope the Iranian people can some day be free.

or substituted its own SSH host keys,

why would the backdoor do that? It would immediately expose itself because every ssh client on the planet warns about changed host keys when connecting.

Uncompressed WAV files, lol I’ll never get over that

It doesn't even make sense. Simple compression algorithms like in use by FLAC or AAC are pretty much free to decompress on CPUs from this century and the cpu cycles you save by not doing wasteful IO of huge files from storage easily makes up for that.

I'm sure game devs can make some argument to not use 'expensive' compression, but not using any is just wasteful.

or maybe western society as a whole got shittier and people are dumber

12/20 is not a good result. There's a 25% chance of getting the same score (or better) by just guessing. The comments section is a good place for all the lucky guessers (one out of 4 test takers) to congregate.

Maybe i don't know enough about Bierzelt culture. If they were singing Hölle, hölle, hölle or Atemlos, would you notice the (right) arm in the air?

Did we watch the same video? In the Twitter thread I saw the lady right in front was doing multiple Nazi salutes in a row, very excited about the song. Don't think there's any ambiguity what she was doing

Well they are also playing "Erika" which is a right wing dog whistle, though maybe not as uncommon in these circles, as outright Nazi salutes

Edit: Also curiously most people, myself included, never find themselves in danger of accidentally heil hitlering even when blackout drunk. Seems to become a more common occurrence in Saxony though.

does it support foobar2000 plugins?

probably not, since those are windows dlls. So here's a short list of what I'd want from a fb2k replacement:

  • a UI plugin with the power and flexibility of Facets/Refacets
  • browse library by folder structure OR tags (most only do one or the other)
  • powerful query language to actually find what I'm looking for
  • binaural stereo for headphones plugin
  • convolver
  • convert to opus and replaygain scanning
  • DR Meter
  • handle my >100k tracks library without constantly crashing or being incredibly slow

Most alternatives I've tried can't even deliver on half of those.
