My friend (looking to buy a house) used to say Surely the housing prices can’t possibly grow any more! … That was 10 years ago. The bubble is happily bubbling away…

Endless knife for an endless pizza. Nice.

Oh nice, now it’s going to drive up housing prices. I’m glad that is not being left behind. /s

Oh you just made my day. The shift will just fly by. Thanks!

Let’s leave nuclear out of this, they look magnificent! In our area, the nuclear power plant is a photo point / trip destination. The surrounding nature is very healthy thanks to the strict regulations.

I genuinely wonder if rust helps guarding against slop coding vulnerabilities, at least statistically.

I hope this idea spreads. I’d love to have this around, getting rid of the free parking. And I own and drive a car, mind you.

Our commie blocks in East Europe tend to get colorful when their owners (either the city or the dwelers) decide to insulate the facade, which often happens across a whole district in a short time. Random image to ilustrate.

July 01, 2025 … I guess nothing changed since then?

What makes this a “transistor” battery?

Building when you could be buying a solution for a supporting project like this? I wish you good luck finding a better employer.

My experience exactly. I even dared to migrate my mother-in-law to Fedora Atomic. Much better to maintain and support than Windows.

Adding icons, even if they are not perfect? Hell yeah! I find it difficult scanning through text, it all seems the same. Even just crappy icons will improve my orientation because every menu becomes a recognizable map. Now if we added colors, that would make it perfect…

This. I was putting a lot of hope into the PinePhone, but the effort required to 1) make it at least barely usable and then 2) keep it that way across updates is just too huge.

And believe me, I tried back then. Even as a software developer, I couldn’t live with it, making all the possible sacrifices. After more than a year of struggles I just got a Pixel 7 and couldn’t be happier to this day.

Exactly. Unless the CEO’s machine struggles with the app (or the top tier customer keeps nagging), optimizing anything gets pushed down the backlog. Sure, let’s create a followup ticket. And then cancel it in a year or two. If it runs, it runs. Good enough.

This works well for me. The hardest part comes from social interactions, not from hunger. Cooking for a family and not eating, that sucks.

Not what the post is about, but finding my MX5 on a parking lot is getting increasingly difficult, yes.

They lose some of their sound, literally. This is very audible with the mandolin, it gets quite muted as the strings age. What a difference when you change them.

…the suspense is killing me! What is it?

I love the design and idea behind these things, I just wish I had a good excuse to use one.
