Having read that book has caused me so many déjà-vus the last few years.

Very unintentional, and not an especially pleasant because not fitting surprise.

It isn't, but what has my username to do with it?

Soll das echt sein? Link?

Those recommendation systems have lots of problems, I agree, especially if they optimize for monetary benefit of the platform above all else.

But you need them if you want to have interesting stuff recommended, simple as that. I can't (and have no interest to) read every Mastodon post ever, same for Lemmy. And I admit it, I don't even want to read every post my friends make.

Mastodon feels like a torrent of random unrelated comments drowing out anything that might be interesting. I tried it, I don't see any value in it. Even for following friends it's unusable, there is the one that posts three times a day and the one that posts once every three weeks, there is no way to ever see one of his posts, unless I specifically go to his profile to look. I've given up on Mastodon.

I once broke my Ubuntu install by trying to convert it KDE Neon, that reinstalled half my packages and left it in an basically unusable state. I then un-broke the install while upgrading multiple Ubuntu releases, that reinstalled the other half as well. It actually worked, and I'm still using that install.

Ich bin echt immer wieder schockiert, dass Leute im Beruf angeschrien werden, bzw sich anschreien lassen (müssen). Ich bin da vielleicht auf der Insel der Glückseeligen, aber das wäre bei mir ein solches No-Go, dass ich instantan zum nächsthöheren Vorgesetzten gehen würde, und auf Disziplinierung bestehen würde. Und falls dem nicht nachgekommen wird, Kündigung. Das geht einfach nicht.

There are a few cases of mythological figures appearing in Bablyon 5. Even King Arthur shows up at one time.

I'll start calling it a Heckenschwein just to annoy you.

Finnish sounds cute.
