What the hell is an Arnold Schwarzenegger sound? Does he just speak German with Austrian and American accents?

They make money with people looking for dates, not with people having found them.

Thank you for the good work, you're making the fediverse a better place.

Yeah, but you'd need to own a public domain and use it for your LAN, no? Or would it be possible to get a letsencrypt certificate for example.local?

I mean, if the server is running in a host you control, you can do whatever with it, no? You can just modify the software to just not do what other servers say, no?

On feddit.de, when I registered (during the great reddit migration), I had to write a short introduction about myself too. I believe it was read by a moderator and manually accepted, but I'm not sure.

Yes this is right. There may be confusion happening with binary and metric prefixes.

For example:

Kibbibyte (1024 bytes) vs Kilobyte (1000 bytes).

So I can in theory just do apt install nix-shell (or whatever), do something like nix-shell -p curl and then curl just works?

For me personally, I just haven't taken any steps into the nix environment. Seems rather complex, setting up those nix files and stuff.

I use Debian on servers and LMDE on my PC, most things I need are in the Debian repos and for other cases I get by pretty good with appimage s and flatpaks. Installing is just a simple command and me happy.

Nixpkgs are probably easy too, I assume. I know a lot of people really like nix, but the effort required to start seems significant to me, especially when we have other methods that just work.

You're right and it is a real problem. But consider that the EU is a huge contributor to the stability of Europe, and the world as a whole. War between EU member states is unthinkable, that wasn't the case 80 years ago.
