thank you for stepping up, I tried to connect with @Alchemy@lemmy.world earlier this year to talk about community topics but I think they are inactive

definitely Progressivist is the most active mod and I agree. There is no rule yet but maybe you’ll get into trouble with instance admins posting 100s of picture at once. I think with some common sense you should be fine. Maybe just post your top 10 pictures or strecht it over a period of time so that we get a picture from you each day/week for example

That is not entirely true. It’s a bit more complicated. Yes it is protected since the 1970s but it’s more of an academic title. You needed to study something that is “mainly” of technological or scientific nature. Basically befire the Bologna reform every student in Tec. Unis/FHs did get the title Diplom-Ingenieur. So the engineer part was literally part of your degree. This of course also true in case you studied IT. So yes there are many who call themselves IT engineers also in Germany. However it’s more of a philosophical question how much software development is actually engineering or rather craftsmanship.

Oh nice, I actually didn’t know that. Pretty nice feature.

I don’t think there is split tunneling in the browser add-on, not exactly sure what you mean.

See my update in the main post, please check if you also had split tunneling enabled. Still a weird behavior but now it is narrowed down to this feature.

See my update in the post, now everything makes a little more sense and it is for sure related to the split tunneling feature.

good to hear that I am not the only one and it is reproducible

again, this doesn’t make sense as the NordVPN Firefox extension is using the same IP address ranges. Also I tried different VPN server in different regions, even the “IP obfuscating” ones

No I am not sure, I don’t really see any error message, just a timeout. Not sure how an error of the DNS resolver looks like compared to any error caused by a timeout. However the DNS resolution should indeed be returning a different error, at least when entering a random non existing URL Firefox returns “server not found” instead of “problem loading page”(and NS_ERROR_NET_TIMEOUT in network debugging consoel). But what else could it be? It is so strange that the combination of Firefox and NordVPN extension does work, so it seems that the routing through the vpn network generally works, so it actually has to be something with the windows client interaction I guess.

That doesn’t make sense, why would it only cause google.com to break? Also I tried turning it off completely, didn’t work.

yeah I liked the area so I dod go for a walk. No resort, just something like an air b’n’b

no it’s probably just the panorama view that lets it look like it is slipping down. It still looks impressive in reality but it probably won’t slip down any time soon, I hope ;-)

nice, we can’t get enough

don’t tell them

yes

it’s been over a decade since I moderated any community but I really like the pics community, I’ll help you out if you still need help

it’s hard to believe…

well I guess he means that Nazis are like cultist or rather any zealots of any religion in a sense that they are blindly following some ideology made up by some guy and that he therefore neither likes religions nor nazism. To saying Lemmy would “sympathize” with Nazism is just plain wrong. Of course he did have a rather weird hobby…

yeah it was obviously the same on any playground so the above comment saying it was “to safe elderly” is just very short sighted. Additionaly implying that this was the case in whole of Germany is again wrong. Each federal state had it’s own health regulations in place but yeah some of those were kind of mediated by the ministry of health. Anyway it was a lot more complex than what this comment suggests
