People providing software with a hard dependency on Microsoft SQL Express of "some" version (because it's "what we know to use") - who then fail to do even a basic setup of such an infrastructure on a clean, newly installed machine, asking to please just "re-install the box" after three failed MSSQL install attempts. Just my kind of humor. 😐

@Modern_Industrial Ahhh ok, I just saw these both passing by without paying much attention. I *am* a bit woried about privacy in #firefox lately, though - not too much to stop using it, but at least enough to take a closer look. Still trying to find a path, however, between optimism, realism and just enough distrust... 😉

@Modern_Industrial Care to explain ...? 😉

@nippon Guess so. 🙂 I think I even saw that picture elsewhere before with an actual description *where* this is but didn't manage to find it again...

@gargron That's a problematic comparison however: It's not the fact that people have to learn. It's the fact that, in case of Facebook / Twitter / Google+ / WhatsApp and any other mainstream system, people have *less* to learn than in order to use distributed social networks, and that possibly some of that learning curve could be avoided. Same as with cell-phones and early mobile internet: Everyone used SMS because few people even knew how to make e-mail on pre-smartphone devices work... 😉

@Karneol Danke! 🙂 Die Pflaumen waren noch etwas wässrig, aber das tat dem insgesamt nur wenig Abbruch...

@nunatak Care to explain...?

Pflaumenkuchen vom Bio-Bäcker zum Mittag. Eher für die Seele als für den Körper ... 🙂

@datenkanal Stimmt. Danke für den Hinweis. 🙂 @Digitalcourage

@Digitalcourage Ich hab noch au-revoir-utm (um Google Analytics - Parameter in Links zu entsorgen). Können aber vielleicht auch andere Addons. @datenkanal

@Digitalcourage Ah. Schön, danke. Ich werde drüberlesen und sehen, ob ich Sinnvolles beizutragen habe. @datenkanal

@Digitalcourage By the way: Habt Ihr eine Reflektion auf #brave als alternativen Browser? @datenkanal

@datenkanal Wird es Mitschriften der Erkenntnisse dazu irgendwo geben? 🙂

@xosem Cook, thanks, gonna have a look and see how far it gets me. 🙂

Anyone out there knows how to make #thunderbird 60 screen fonts usable (a bit larger, at best adhering to the rest of my desktop) on #linux / #gnome?
