Today in Labor History March 5, 1871: Rosa Luxemburg (1871-1919) was born in Zamosc, Poland. Together with Karl Liebknecht, she helped found the radical Spartacus League in 1916. The Spartacists and other leftwing Council Communists launched an uprising to replace the Social Democratic government with a communist one. Many of the workers obtained arms. They tried, but failed, to get the support of the Navy, which remained neutral in the conflict. However, the Social Democrats got the anti-Communist Freikorps paramilitary to fight for their side. Many of the ultranationalist Freikorps members were suffering from PTSD from WWI. Many went onto to become members of the Nazi Party and served in the SS. The Freikorps had weapons and military equipment leftover from WWI and were able to quash the uprising within a week. Up to 200 people died in the fighting, including 17 Freikorps soldiers. The Social Democrats captured, beat and executed Liebknecht and Luxemburg.

Windows 12 is due to come out this year.
1) Your computer does not meet the system requirements. Again.
Why?
Your PC will need a dedicated NPU — a specialized processor designed to handle AI tasks. So, if you recently bought a new PC just to use Windows 11, Microsoft wants you to go shopping again.
2) It will finally, unfortunately, introduce a subscription model.
That's right — you read that correctly. They want you to pay and keep paying to use the computer you just bought. Technically, you won’t own your computer while Windows is installed.
NOW is the time to try Linux. Stop waiting. Don’t make excuses. Don’t even complain — we all knew this day was coming. Either try Linux, or admit you’re Microsoft’s little bitch.
Source? Yes, this is real.

For whomever needs to hear this: you are not alone. I am not vibecoding any of the software I write. I write it all by hand. I have leveled up to using ed(1) on a glass TTY rather than a hardcopy-output device. I am modernizing my stacks and using languages with excellent compilers like C89. I think about how to do more with less. I am trying to combine the best human-written libraries and modules and assemble them with minimal boilerplate. I enjoy reading manuals and references. I believe in robust, secure, human-written software.

Katherina Reiche: 2012 die PV-Vergütung abgewürgt. Danach direkt zum Energieversorger-Lobbyverband, dann zu E.ON. Jetzt wieder Ministerin – und macht exakt da weiter.
Das ist keine Zufälligkeit. Das ist ein Geschäftsmodell.
Der neue Entwurf ist kein Versehen, keine schlechte Politik, kein Irrtum. Er ist das Produkt jahrzehntelanger Arbeit für Konzerninteressen – auf Kosten von Hausbesitzern, Handwerksbetrieben und der Energiewende.
Die deutsche Solarindustrie hat Reiche & Altmaier 2012 nicht überlebt. China hat den Weltmarkt übernommen. Kohle und Gas liefen weiter.
Jetzt: Komplexität statt Klarheit, Direktvermarkter statt Planungssicherheit, Verunsicherung statt Ausbau.
Wer das als »Wirtschaftspolitik« verkauft, lügt. Das ist Lobbypolitik mit Ministerausweis.

Motorola und #GrapheneOS tun sich zusammen. Was zunächst wie eine Randnotiz klingt, ist tatsächlich ein bemerkenswerter Schritt: Das bisher Pixel-exklusive, gehärtete Android soll künftig auch auf Motorola-Hardware laufen.
Wer digitale Selbstbestimmung ernst nimmt, braucht Alternativen. GrapheneOS ist eine davon – mit Sandbox für Google-Dienste und ohne den üblichen Datenhunger. Noch dazu hochsicher und datenschutzfreundlich.
