  • Someone in the comments to the original twitter-thread showed the Claude solution for above “riddle”. It was equally sane as in your example, correctly answered that the man and the goat can just row together to the other side and correctly identified that there are no hidden restrictions like other items to take aboard. It nevertheless used an excessive amount of text (like myself here).

    Gemini: The man rows the goat across.

  • The only innovative thing CDU/CSU has done was inventing a time machine which can travel back to the 60s.

    Of all Bundesländers they got at the helm in Berlin. And wreaking havoc as always that corrupt industry obedient creeps under whose regimen the most farms died and who now present themselves as the only party (besides the horse farmer Christian Lindner) who wants to save small farms by posting 3 year old pictures of photo-op’s (Plöß) in a farm or putting on rubber boots and hugging farmers (Klöckner).

    They constantly don’t stand with their past opinions (Söder regarding cannabis legalization) are anti-semites (Aiwanger) and climate change deniers. They are against renewables, animal welfare, modern organic farming, abolishing of fossil fuels and alternative transportation methods and everything that’s necessary to save the asses of the future generations.

    They’d definitely coalition with AfD if that would be the only measure to get into power again and working into the hands of fossil fuel and alcohol lobbyists again.

    Everything that’s going bad in this country is not the fault of their 16 years of corrupt reign but of the Greens who are merely in power for 3 years, who made record low GHGs, record high renewables and the breaking up with Putins gas in germany possible (Habeck for chancelor).

    Look at this especially dumb conspiracy theorist specimen here who’s allowed to regularily write pieces for Springer-Press telling us it’s an imperative to save the combustion engine in favour of a dying german industry:

    I hate them with a passion.

    I read somewhere (sorry no sauce but it seemed informed) that it’s a deliberate choice by him to appeal to working class boomers or something. Did you all know that a medium channeled his deceased dog which in turn told him to run for president?


  • I’m at my 3rd moto atm. A slightly outdated g31. It came with Android 11 and only recently 2 years after I bought it, it got the 12 upgrade. Still gets regular security patches.

    Next the apps installe by Motorola (where I mean by optional that you can deactivate them, not uninstall). None of these apps are in the top 12 in the battery usage statistics and most of them are activated.

    Moto App (117MB, optional)

    A tutorial center with “kurzgesagt” like animations e.g. for gestures. A selection of shortcuts to settings for customizing your device and Motorola QOL settings.

    Moto Actions and Gestures (20MB, optional)

    Enables the gestures (has no other brand a shaking flashlight gesture or has Motorola patented it?).

    Moto App Launcher (4MB)

    The Motorola specific desktop customization. I don’t know how close it is to the Pixel stock image but it doesn’t get in my way.

    Moto AI Services (whopping 200MB, optional)

    The reviews for this service are scalding. I’m honestly not the biggest fan of having AI on my phone that’s not in my control. Two reviewers point out, that it probably isn’t very invasive AI and rather used for QOL features, like the shaking flashlight feature.

    Moto Feedback (31MB, optional)

    Helps the user sending feedback (bug-reports and memory-dumps?) to Motorola. Again smotheringly bad reviews. Never had to do with it or used it knowingly. Can be deactivated.

    Motorola notifications (88MB, optional)

    Again some furious reviews. Double edged sword as it’s used to send news about updates but also push ADs. But the latter isn’t very spammy. Just every few weeks or month a push notifications about a new moto. That’s about the only place where I would see ADs (apart from regular apps).





  • The browser login of my bank needs a separate application that’s windows only or an app. The Java(!) application Jameica saved my ass for the 6 years I’m on Linux now. It can manage multiple accounts. It offers statistics, saves all the transfers, deposits and balances ad infinitum on your disk, is searchable and has templates and schedules for transfers.

    The protocol my bank uses is FinTS, I think. I’m logging in via a certificate file and a password.

    I don’t want to use an app, cause I trust my cutting edge Linux (Kernel 6.7.6) a lot more than my possibly malicious app riddled outdated android.



  • I hope you can accept my apology. I just was in a very agravated mood because of all the ignorance on xitter. We’re try trying to make people less dumb there on multiple fronts and I think we starting to reach people in the last days and they change their stance.

    I never watched IT Crowd, but I’m a big fan of Always Sunny, The Office and Arrested Development. I hope there’ll be times when I can enjoy those again and be in a better mood.



  • And it’s more ethical and environmentally friendlier than Lithium-Ion, right?

    Norway has just started a deep sea excavation for cobalt and copper which as I understand (I’m clueless) can be omitted from sodium-ion batteries. The excavation is roughly of the size of equador and will take place in an area that may contain previously unknown lifeforms and critically endangered eco-system.

    A paragraph of an article seems to show their non-chalance regarding the ecosystem impacts and unknown side-effects:

    “The Norwegian government recognizes that it can’t be sure any mining would be sustainable—it’s not been able to determine the likely environmental impact of extracting minerals in its waters, nor exactly what minerals are there to be found. “We do not currently have the knowledge needed to extract minerals from the seabed in the manner required,” says Næss.”

    These are the guys whose grid runs on 99% hydropower but they keep drilling for fossile fuels and now rare earths to export them and in addition are still hunting wales.

    So to summarise: I’m very happy that there seems to be an eco friendly battery where its main component is the overambundantly availabe sodium. And the short wikipedia entry seems to reflect, that it’s a more simple tech.
