Yes, and it's always been hot in summer!

> go to your local record store, look at their wall of employee recs, or gasp talk to them and ask them.

What local record store?

What local cinema?

What local bookshop?

Congrats, if you're resistant to addictive algorithms and same-day delivery convenience, but it's ignorant to deny the new baseline.

> To state that it is not acceptable kinda evokes the image of some higher force that intervenes and changes the situation

Yes, this higher force is morality and conscience. Going back to the original argument, Saxony isn't sponsoring these developments all by itself. It's a larger collective's effort. As a tax paying citizen, I am entitled to judge the situation and at the very least demand conditions for success, or ask for reallocation of resources to more fertile grounds.

As can be seen in this thread, the people living in these regions feel zero accountability or problem awareness. Unsurprisingly you even see the common "How dare you call us Nazis, we're just against multiculturalism and anything woke", ironically proving the point: Foreign engineers are not welcome. The foreign workers are not all going to be drawn from white Norway and Poland (what an idiotic assumption), but India and Asia etc.. They will make the landscape "multicultural". Not too mention the higher percentage of queer and other "woke" minorities in the tech sector, which are also "just" not welcome. After all, being not accepted at home may be another reason to seek shelter elsewhere.

Saxony is not full of Nazis, just people who kinda prefer the authoritarian ethnostate. Wessis need to be more accepting of the fact Pride parades are cancelled. And did you know, statistically you are far more likely to die by other means, than a hate crime in Saxony!

Quite frankly, you can't get to them (reactionary idiots) through rational discussion. It's been tried over and over again. We don't know how to do it, but talking to them isn't it. Meeting them with brainrot TikTok, seems to be somewhat effective (see Linke campaign), but in the end the simplistic answers win social media and the right got a natural edge there. They are living in informational bubbles and, in the East, due to liberal people leaving/fleeing (no judgement), these bubbles become lived realities. Worth noting: The high AfD turnouts are likely due to demographics, population density is really, really low across the east. Self-fulfilling prophecy. Of course there is historic baggage, too, but it's not just the old fucks, so at last let's start putting accountability where it belongs. The people there need to change, if they want the economic prosperity they feel entitled to. Rainald Grebe's "Brandenburg" is 20 years old: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uellmynA34U

And yes, some of this entitlement and mental retardation is also rapidly growing in the West. All of Germany is very sick, geriatric, mismanaged and racing towards precarious inequality. Whatever the East is cooking is not the solution, so let's not call it a virtue.

Yeah, this is all about sentiment, not facts, huh?

> the point is whether it is actually dangerous for the everyday people.

Again, that's not just whataboutism, but irrelevant. "Everyday people" in Saxony are not affected by xenophobia and racially motivated violence, so your thinking is just really, really insufficient. The death stats include dying of old age. Mind boggling, you think of that as relevant and even keep insisting it is. Not a good look really.

If you can't understand this reasoning you should not be using statistics to make a point. It's not for you. Your goal isn't truth finding, but venting some hurt caused by self-ascribed entitlement, so I am out. Good luck with that. I am getting popcorn watching Saxony fuck up this undeserved opportunity.

You are right about the pH implications, but respiratory acidosis leads to hyperventilation, not hypoventilation. CO2 will kill you regardless of oxygen supply.

I am frequently in Leipzig, it's indeed a very nice city. But it's also immediately obvious people with a (visible) migration background are a smaller minority than elsewhere (which is backed by stats). So for a lived experience, I would strongly suggest talking to those minorities. The reports I heard speak of a lot of casual racism.

While you don't have to travel by carriage, you may even use the airport, avoiding the Umland is still an alienating and saddening state of affairs you can hardly call acceptable. For example, Saxony has absolutely beautiful nature along the Elbsandsteingebirge/Sächsische Schweiz, but those areas are also notoriously hot spots of the violent far right (e.g. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skinheads_S%C3%A4chsische_Schw...). For me it felt moderately dangerous, as a white person. As an Indian, are you gonna join your colleagues on "workation" there, are you gonna bring up your worries? It's all fine, bro, racism in Saxony is all Wessi propaganda, bro. Just avoid leaving the safe zones.

Wrong comment? I wasn't talking to you and you didn't address any argument made, just reiterating the ever same Ossi vs. Wessi blabla.

> I have grown up in one of those apparently 'nazi-infested' areas, my entire family lives there and I visit every couple of weeks.

And are you even targeted by racism to make yours a relevant experience? Do you even try to understand the problem?

Man, and you even got some refugees! Saxony has one of the lowest shares of migrants and people with a migration background in all of Germany. Even Leipzig and in particular Dresden show up at the bottom compared with other German cities. That's facts.

* https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Migrationshintergrund * https://www.destatis.de/DE/Themen/Gesellschaft-Umwelt/Bevoel...

In contrast, as shown above, Saxony has one of the highest rates of violent crimes motivated by right wing extremism (going on for decades). Tendenz steigend. All together, this makes Saxony factually one of the most dangerous and unwelcoming places to be for anyone targeted by racists. And dude, this is violent crimes, it doesn't even consider the daily verbal hostilities etc..

Maybe, just maybe, if people there would care as much about this very real problem as they care about its perception, things would change for the better. Making yourself the victim is what's disgusting.

My man, I didn't even bring up the AfD. So think about that for a moment and do some introspection. You are projecting a lot.

And downplaying those numbers with all cause mortality... Maybe think about that too, hm?!

And your source states Bavaria had 144 violent right wing crimes, which is the number to match. Don't even sweat, for other reasons I would call it a shit hole too. But please, redo the math and be sure to not contrast the total population but the relevant potential victim populations. You know, since xenophobic violence isn't threatening everyone the same...

I live in east Germany and speak from experience. So maybe you are the arrogant one trying to ostplain the world to those seeing just fine.

> Which is of course exaggerated as usually and if you are referring to the AFD, my take is that the focus on the eastern part is just cope by the western part, they are rising the same in the western part, the eastern is just ahead of the curve.

Sure buddy. https://www.raa-sachsen.de/support/statistik/statistiken/rec...

There is a reason, every young person with half a brain moves to Leipzig/Dresden, or leaves Saxony completely. Cope...The problem with right wing extremism in the area predates the AfD, Saxony was always in the top three for right wing hate crimes. Maybe read criminal stats or Verfassungsschutzberichte instead of crying injustice. Dude, you can't blame lack of decency and empathy on the economy forever... And it won't get better by ignoring shit feeling entitled to outside help fixing your mess.

> How are they shooting themself in the foot, by investing into semiconductors?

Maybe read the comment you replied to. The investment into semiconductors is the great chance for prosperity, reactionary politics and xenophobia how they ruin it.

I know about the historic connection, but that doesn't change the political/cultural climate in the area.

As a matter of fact, the chairman of Silicon Saxony is concerned as well: https://www.zeit.de/wirtschaft/2024-02/afd-sachsen-silicon-s...

Not to mention federal politicians doing their best to kill the German economy and motivation to work at all, it's quite hard to imagine why any foreign engineer would chose to move to Saxony of all places. Have you been to the countryside in the Bundesland? It's bad. Neonazi and racism all over the place. Literally visible to the casual observer, you don't even have to talk to anyone. T-shirts, stickers, graffiti, stupid notices, ... people there don't hide it.

I wonder how these will fare in Saxony. I presume it's an industry which will attract and depend on highly qualified foreign workers. Dresden itself may be fine, but parts of Saxony are sadly no-go areas for anyone remotely non-white, or even moderately liberal. It's a really brain-damaged region outside of Dresden and Leipzig, and even those cities are not exactly welcoming examples of diversity. Given a historic chance of prosperity, I think odds are eastern Germany will shoot itself in the foot epically with this.

If I was Queen of Germany, I would put everything into a platform like Arduino or RaspPi which can be widely used across industries and education. Some amount of taxes will be allocated to buy these boards and guarantee demand for manufacturing. Then every citizen gets such a device in return. Basically mandatory purchase. The education sector can completely lean in on the platform, abundance will have it dominate DIY projects and may create additional demand as reference platform. Whoever doesn't need it, can sell it or give it away to charity. This will stabilize a critical industry and aid digital education, engineering and so on. I feel like people would be more easy about a tax, if they get a physical product in exchange.

Over time this program would be extended to include and bring back other critical industries and manufacturing capabilities, ultimately leading to citizens being able to choose their mandatory product to some extent and preference. For example it would be really cool to have a basic, but very robust and repairable sewing machine, 3D printer, ... which all aid survivability/adaptability of the collective in crisis, if widely distributed. These products would also set the baseline for quality and accessibility expectations.

Of course this goes hand in hand with a 4 day work week, so people can actually learn to appreciate their mandated crisis hobbies and indulge their family and friends doing so. And if all of this doesn't pan out economically, I would simply plunder and enslave a neighboring country <3

Europe's economy has a higher share in the industrial and agricultural sector. The US isn't the sole "western" benchmark.

For me that IP belongs to apple, when using the iOS mail client. I presume Apple forces third party apps to use their API and then stuff like this happens. Guess that's also on google, not mitigating that issue, tho.

Have you tried a VPN? I wonder, if Apple manages to expose IP despite a VPN. They had issues with stuff like that before.

I am not using Yahoo. Idk. I tested it multiple times to make sure I am not making up drama. I would post screenshots but I can't be bothered to edit them for privacy right now.

The disclosure mail has this in source (from OMA perspective):

X-Icloud-Hme: [email protected]; d=; [email protected]; r=to; [email protected]; [email protected]

I know little about mail, but I think it's pretty evident there is a fuck-up, because the HME and real mail address should never be found next to each other anywhere. I kinda suspect this is meant to be forwarded to the sent box like this, but got forwarded to OMA or something.

Again, I checked multiple times, the iOS mail client shows the HME in from-field. It could be, this is "just" a bug in the iOS mail client. I presume the OP found something generally wrong with HME. But only the abyss I see here makes me absolutely not trust Apple with this anymore.

Did you do 2. and to the same OMA? The thing is, initiated from from iOS client, the ping pong goes fine-ish (despite disclosing HME usage) first time, but then "reusing" the alias, exchange initiated from same OMA is the important differentiation, apparently. There must be some issue with header rewriting, threading, idk... I presume OMA structures the header differently and does not trigger HME response as Apple expects. Or Apple already got a HME translation route for the OMA, and can't make a new one, fails to reuse the old one. Some mail servers may cut some X-whatever meta data. I mean, "X-Mailer: iPhone Mail" is cringe as fuck bloat...

That's what I thought, but I happens to coincide with the actual leakage, so....

What is bad UX is the fact there are two reply buttons in the iOS client. One "in" the mail and one for the thread. The mail one pretends to reply from HME alias, the thread one does not. This alone could expose you by accident, since anyone would expect to reply with HME in any case, but you get exposed either way.

I am starting to think all these "privacy" features merely exist as excuse for getting people to hand off their mails to Apple. Clearly the all do not deliver on the intended functionality, but the proxy/relay routing happens to some extent anyway. How convenient. If you were a company promising its users all the privacy, but secretly not giving a fuck beyond collecting user traffic and meta data, wouldn't you expect the state of things to look exactly like that? I mean, how could you explain this any other way, considering the size of Apple and the relative ease of developing such features reliably? Apple is hardly breaking ground here.

> then the real mail gets disclosed in the mail source.

It's not just in the source, I totally overlooked the fact the real email address is shown as sender. Lol.

> Does the initial sender matter? Like if it’s the HME address that sends first and receives the reply? I have around 180 of these addresses.

Appears so. Here is exactly what I did:

1. Created the HME through mail, sending to other email service address (OMA). (This disclosed the information in my original comment.)

2. Did some reply ping pong. (No additional disclosure.)

3. Send a new email from OMA to above HME.

4. Replied from iOS mail client (UI showing usage of HME alias. Yes, I verified this multiple times not to make a fool of myself.)

5. Received at OMA, the real address is disclosed.

6. On the iOS client side, the mail shows up as sent from the real mail address, too.

Not sure if 1. for HME creation is required, you can likely skip straight to 3. for any HME address.

Funny enough, I observed 6. in the wild before, but was kinda hoping that's an artifact of forwarding a copy of the mail to the thread. I tested this some, but not this particular ping-pong. So yeah... I now gonna check where I evidently leaked my real mail address already...
