Psychotic delusions, very likely.

When you go to the mall, what exactly causes the anxiety/feeling weird?

Do you already have a server deployed? How familiar are you with Linux?

No server. I just installed Linux a few months ago as dual boot after being a lifelong Windows user (since 3.1 lol). Currently using both OS but will move fully to Linux once I have some projects finished. Self-hosting might become a future project after that and if yes, I’ll come back to this community and this thread!

I.e., not limited at all.

What’s stopping people you know from taking this step?

I’m a noob when it comes to IT. (Even though in my family I’m the one people ask when they have computer issues lol.) I would really like to get into self-hosting and all that, and I think if I found some good guides I would probably be able to make things work, but it still sounds very daunting to me. Like, I imagine days if not weeks of sifting through online resources to fix a thousand little errors and issues that would come up. (Maybe I’m mistaken, maybe it’s all really easy even for noobs. Just trying to explain my feelings on the matter.)

Edit: Woke up to 10 replies lol. Thanks for everybody’s input and helpful links. I think this might become a future project for me, but not before winter 26/27 (for life reasons).

Yeah I’m gonna make a bold prediction and say this guy will face no consequences whatsoever.

You got that all wrong. He ended the US-Venezuela war! I’m sure he’ll end the US-Greenland war next!

Hier ist auch noch ein, wie ich finde, sehr gelungenes Analysevideo der NYT: https://www.nytimes.com/video/us/100000010631041/minneapolis-ice-shooting-video.html

Warnung: Gegen Ende des Videos (ungefähr 3:30) sieht man die erschossene Frau im Auto.

In einem der Videos habe ich es sehr deutlich von der Decke tropfen sehen. Ich nehme an, das war dann der Kunststoff.

That’s such a (US) American thing. “Someone coughed when the cop didn’t order it? Deserves to be executed right then and there.” I see it all the time in comments about killings like this and it never stops weirding me out.

Good for California. If only all countries of the earth followed suit so the billionaires would have to move into their weird libertarian ocean hubs.

…or the time travelers were just unsuccessful. I mean there have been attempts on his life.

Das Gruselige an der derzeitigen US-Regierung ist ja, dass ihnen das alles (Völkerrecht, Zerstörung der NATO, …) völlig egal ist. Ich weiß nicht, ob die US-Oligarchen irgendwie von einem Angriff auf Grönland profitieren können, aber falls ja, dann sehe ich nicht, was sie aufhalten sollte.

Unklar bleibt, wie der Polizeibeamte überhaupt an das untergeschobene Marihuana gekommen ist.

Das ist auch ein starkes Stück. Der Polizist war offensichtlich im Besitz von Marihuana - entweder, um es selbst zu konsumieren (aber gibt man es dann für so eine Aktion auf?), oder schon mit dem Vorsatz, es unliebsamen Verhafteten unterzuschieben. Das erfordert m. E. auch zwingend eine Untersuchung sämtlicher früherer Verhaftungen, an denen der Polizist beteiligt war. Ist ja nicht ausgeschlossen, dass das System hatte.

Im Übrigen bleibt zu hoffen, dass sowohl in den höheren Instanzen als auch im Disziplinarverfahren die Gerechtigkeit siegt und der Mann nie wieder in diesem Beruf arbeiten darf.

Thanks, very interesting. I think I had read about the US occupying Greenland during WWII (defensively), but not about the buy offers.

And yes, obviously nothing legitimises these threats. I was just interested to see whether Trump came up with it or whether it has some history in US political circles, which it appears it does.

Canada would be wise to build nukes ASAP.

A related question I have: Was the US ever (publicly) interested in “acquiring” Greenland before Trump? His comments are the first of the sort I ever noticed, but I could imagine the idea having a longer tradition.

Don’t know if true but also completely plausible.

No. I was just interested because I’ve seen a lot of headlines about how Grok creates all these problematic images of women, minors etc., but not about other similar generative AI software. But my understanding so far has been that there’s no real way to safeguard generative AI at all, so I was wondering whether this was a Grok-only problem, and if so, how others were avoiding it.
