  • It does not. Spending money you borrow at an interest rate that's as low as it currently is, is way, way, way cheaper than going "Oops, sorry, there's currently no money for roads / bridges / hospitals / Kitas /..." and waiting until they've fallen into complete unrepairability, at t which point you'll have to rebuild for way more money.

    And speaking of Kitas: we currently have far too few. This forces some parents to stay at home even though they want to work. Borrow money, build Kita, a sizeable portion of the population returns to the workplace.

    Better infrastructure allows people to earn more. More earnings is more taxes collected, without raising them on the individual.

  • I've been wondering this. I have multiple of the older (non-Dot, the tall, cylindrical ones) Echoes. I hate using them. But I do like the form factor and sound quality.

    It probably can't be too hard to gut everything but the speakers, microphone and DC port, then wire in a Pi / Pi Zero, right...?

  • If you're not using a standard DE (Gnome, KDE,...) but rather something like i3, Hyprland,... then I highly recommend starting with home-manager on whatever distro you're currently on. Once you're happy with that setup, it's really easy to add the "rest of the system" without risking a giant headache because your desktop still needs to be configured

  • ...no?

    I think what plays into this is also language. In English / to you, I presume it makes perfect sense to say "Pi is approximately three point one four". In other languages (for me, German) the literal translation "Pi ist ungefähr drei Punkt eins vier" sounds awful and wrong. We say "Pi ist ungefähr drei Komma eins vier" ("Pi is approximately three comma one four") so we also write it like this 🤷🏼‍♀️
