I'ld still be amazed if European countries decided to pile up 150.000 soldiers, thousands of tanks and artillery somewhere in Finland near Russian border pointing towards st. Petersburg. They just can't not react. This would pull so much Russian force away from the actual frontlines...
it will become like many appliances... You want a dumb tv? Possible, but it will cost you more than a smart one. You want a dumb fridge? Fine, but soon it will cost you more than a 'smart' one you can't even turn on without making an account somewhere and registering your email and phone
Fair enough if it's decaying in many ways! I had gotten the impression it would be just for the usb-c only. In my perfect world many electronic appliances would also be forced to be a minimum level of repairable and have replaceable batteries of course. Possibly only "professionally replaceable", but not glued in and/or artificially made as little repairable as possible.
Logical things I think it could or should become the norm as well: electric razors, vaporisers, head-flashlights (like Petzl), many kinds of toys like RC cars and such, christmas lights, Halloween decorations etc etc.
It think in many cases it will usually be a lot more ecological to use devices you already own as long as you can and keep repairing them if possible. It's nice to have usb-c, but throwing out a fine, still functioning toothbrush to replace it by a usb-c chargeable model just for that reason seems to me like the opposite of ecological.
179 €. With windows pre-installed that I'll remove right away because it seemed cheaper than buying RAM and SSD separate currently.
Still have an old pi laying around, did OSMC+kodi on that for a few years, but now it's just not powerful enough anymore for handling more recent compressed video
Yeah seems super gaming oriented that's why I doubted, but apparently there's a Bazzite HTPC version, will probably start with trying that and see how well it fits the situation
Not German but moved to Germany. The word is still a normal word, it can be used, only in certain contexts not.
To me it is very very weird.
Especially in a comboword there is 0,0 issue: Reiseführer, Bergführer, etc. The no go zone seems very subtle to me, it's more about pronunciation and context, not the word itself. Especially the word "Führerschein" is super weird to me when used in regular conversations. I automatically hear translated "license to be the Führer", but it just means driver's license and nothing else and no one finds it weird.
The lowest earners making the company work aren't mentioned here. It's probably an external company cleaning the toilets, for hourly rates you probably don't want to know.
