Programs are mathematical proofs. If maths cannot be patented, software can't be, either.

If it's on company time, it's fine.

Former managers of Deutsche Bahn did not care to invest into modernization. Managers get money for showing and keeping plus in their Excel sheets. They leave the company with all kinds of bonuses for that and risk no repercussions.

The next generation of managers are simply fucked. They inherit all the neglected infrastructure and bad processes.

Additionally politics made it even worse. They told the managers that repairs are not a matter of subsidies. Only new infrastructure is supported. So Deutsche Bahn literally let the tracks and stations rot until they need to be totally renewed.

This all based on absolute greed. And the best is you can harm Germany for free without any risks and keep all your money. No one here would get the idea to jail the responsible people who let it happen.

So they have no shame to admit they have committed war crimes. And as a parent I would be sceptical if I am safe collecting the children.

There is also many complications when citizens of a country they are at war with enter the other country. The most reasonable thing to do would be to bring the kids near the border where they would be collected by officials or an organization which makes sure the kids find a safe way home.

I am not a guy who blindly trusts technology. Why go forward when you cannot see what's in front of you? How can that happen?

AFAIK Google makes a disclaimer about it. A bridge can also be destroyed on the same day, so...

Well,...

  2. They make squeeky sounds (that's why "pig")

TIL password managers charge for 2FA.

  1. Get a free password manager.
  2. Get a free 2FA App. Please don't mix passwords and 2FA so you don't reduce it to 1FA.

For 1) I use PasswdSafe, because I can merge databases with Password Gorilla as I like.

For 2) I use Aegis. You can download an icon theme, which is quite cool.

Partially off topic, but I won't buy OnePlus anymore, because they lock down the bootloader.

Adobe has already proved they don't understand web technologies when creating Flash.

You can install Steam on Linux. In fact I have 2 PCs in my house for my sons. They run Windows games flawlessly. See for compatibility in the ProtonDB.
