  • Nur weil man privat mit Windows defender und einer basic Firewall auskommt, heißt das noch lange nicht, dass große Firmen das auch tun. Noch dazu hat Linux im Bereich Cybersecurity quasi keinen Unterschied zu Windows. Privat kann man sich den Antivirus sparen weil:

    1. die Nutzerbasis zu klein ist/war
    2. Linux Anwendungen normalerweise aus bekannten Repositories kommen
    3. die Nutzer sich mit Technik auskennen und selbst als Antivirus fungieren

    Als größere Firma (vor allem Banken und kritische Infrastruktur) muss man permanent mit Angriffen von außen und innen rechnen. Ne einfache Firewall hilft dir da nicht mal gegen nen basic DDoS Angriff.

    Klar kann man viel abdecken durch einfache Mittel wie gut gemanagte Zugriffrechte und das Sperren von USB ports, aber das schützt halt hauptsächlich vor der Dummheit/Unwissenheit der eigenen Mitarbeiter.

    Das soll auch nicht heißen, dass alles in so einem Software Packet relevant ist, da ist sicherlich auch viel unnützer Müll dabei. Aber ganz ohne IPSec Tools kommt man nicht weit.


  • Apple is a bit like Microsoft in that regard. Their browser (safari) is so tightly integrated into their operating system that removing it is basically impossible. Due to that, they can use/abuse it for basic functionality like a pdf reader instead of creating a separate app for it.

    Android, on the other hand, doesn’t even have a real default browser. While Chrome ships as the default since android 4, it’s basically just the app tacked on top. Since PDF readers on android existed before Chrome became the default, Google was never really bothered with including a build in PDF reader in their browser. It simply wasn’t necessary. And since most browser depend on chromium, which lacks this functionality, they don’t have it either.

    Firefox on Android has the option to open PDFs, so if you want it, that would be an option. It isn’t a limitation of the operating system, Google simply couldn’t be bothered and most others just use copy + past on Chrome.

    That has nothing to do with age. Most people nowadays are so used to instant gratification that they struggle with stuff that only helps them in the long term, me included. Last time I tried to seriously sit down and learn I caught myself doing dishes and watering plants after not even 30mins.



  • Or have a public social media account and a ‘business’ one I use to share my own music or something? My dual-boxing MMO accounts?

    Wanna bet that you are already breaking TOS with both of these things? And I don’t mean SimpleLogins TOS, but the one of the social media platform and MMO. Most big platforms only allow one account per user, no matter how the account is used. Sometimes you can create a business account, but that’s still linked to your private one. Same goes for pretty much any online game, you are limited to one account per person.

    I don’t think that there is any sense behind these limitations, but simplelogin isn’t concerned about that, they only care about the legality of your actions and limit their service accordingly.








  • Nuclear is the worst possible option to fill said gaps. Nuclear reactor need to run at a mostly stable output permanently, they are slow to react to changes and can’t be switched on or off at will.

    You could use them to generate a stable base power level, but that’s the opposite of what we need. It wouldn’t change anything regarding the need of energy storage.

    The best option currently as a gap filler is gas cause it can be turned on or off in minutes when needed.

    Not keeping up with demand is a self-made problem. Multiple EU countries already have multiple days a year where they use 100% renewables.
