German homes are relatively okay insulated. Very remote: burn wood or some sort of wood pellet stuff. Not clean, but it is local and renewable. Less remote: heat pumps, runs on electricity. Cities: many are planning/extending heat nets, those can be partially powered by left over heat from industry. And import nuclear electricity from France in winter I guess!
I agree but not on the debt free part. Mortgage loan at 1,45%, savings rate at 2,4 %: I’ll not try to get out of that debt sooner than planned, thank you very much :')
Newpipe breaks very often for me. Freetube breaks less
How often do cults end in mass suicide?
but they might be worth a lot in 30 years if you take good care of them!
you make me think i might, who knows. It looks and feels as a half-blocked element by something tho. The lay-over pop-up thing is getting thru, it’s content is not. Now I found out that I can “click” some of the whiteness (turns into a hand), but don’t know what I’ld be agreeing to.
First there’s this: which the only option is “review options”. There is no “close it for now” or whatever. It’s not a choice but a command.

Review choices
If clicking the review choices, I get a blank window with some “ghost elements” and when I inspect some of these it for example says “yes, link”. But I’ld rather not. Tried turning off all my extensions and refreshing but that still didn’t render it readable to me.
Yeah i used to do that. Then i got hooked by how easy it became to just stream all the time. Local made me feel like i got stuck on the same music after a while a bit too much, and getting new music required effort. I became lazy.
I honestly don’t care if it’s a user issue or a platform issue. It’s annoying af.
Yes, EU, they probably have to. Thing is i can’t see a thing on that pop-up, something somewhere is blocking it. Turned off ublock, still not showing, turned off i don’t care about cookies, still shows nothing. So it’s a white, empty pop-up on which i can’t click a thing and can’t get beyond it.
i think it’s whoever made the playlist i dunno. It’s mildly infuriating to me anyhow that someone would post a “full album …” and compose it with videos which all together do not form the album they claim it is in the title of the playlist.
30 mins of a German professor who all his life studied doing dishes and how dishwashers work. (in juicy German accent English).
The answer is soaking.
I dislike the fact even more then the idea.
Called a bank recently.
They: "please say in a word the subject your call is about so we can immediately connect you to the right department "
Me: “LOAN”
They: you said “limits on your cards”, 1 for yes 2 for no
I tried 3 times, gave up. They won, I guess.
Been using searx a bit recently and it often is the 1 thing I’m looking for as the top result.
It is. I use it as such regularly. Keyboard+mouse+screen = browsing firefox as usual. Works quite well. Libreoffice, okular, signal desktop… I’ve used worse computers in recent years, steamdeck desktop experience is better than many 4 to 5 year old cheap laptops with win10 or win11.
There’s one good use case for me: produce a bigload of trialcontent in no time for load testing new stuff. “Make 2000 yada yada with column x and z …”. Keeps testing fun and varied while lots of testdata and that it’s all nonsense doesn’t matter.
I’ve found that testing code or formulas with LLM is a 50/50 now. Very often replying “use function blabla() and such snd so” very detailed instructions while this suggested function just doesn’t exist at all in certain language asked for… it’s still something I’ld try if I’m very stuck tho, never know.
they’re not dumb, they just have way more cows in their stables than the piece of land the stable is on could ever support with any crop. Am in Belgium. Pretty sure cows here eat a lot more imported crops (mostly from south america) processed to livestockfeed than they eat local grass.
Excepr they barely eat grass anymore, but imported soy from deprecated tropical forests.
are you going to rob them while they’re away?
i dunno, especially the music is really vast availability of full albums etc. Youtube + ublock is kinda my go to music. Used to search and store gigabytes, but it’s just not the same, not as easy. If youtube dies (ergo: it succeeds in blocking adblocking and third party such as newpipe), i’ll have a hard time finding alternatives tbh, that are just as user friendly.
Even if you’ld wait until rain stops and even if you don’t go off road: there’s puddles on bike paths after it has rained!
