They are fighting not only the symptoms, but also the root cause

New drives are more like 20€ per TB. Factor in redundancy with something like raid 5 and boom, off-site storage costs you a government toppling 20 000€ in hard drives.

I’m sorry for your loss

I don’t go to the office often, but when I do, I usually walk. The distance is 4km and it takes me 40mins. It’s not like I walk often, most days I get less than 2k steps, but I do walk fast.

It is up to you (unless the infrastructure is an ass) to make it there in 40mins or 2 hours

One thing to note is that the ANC shuts down during charging (so does Bluetooth) but you can still use the wired connection.

I wouldn’t want my local crows to OD on ketamine

In my experience, it is not an issue. I turn the oven on when I start cooking and only then start gathering the items. By the time I want to stick something in the oven, it is already hot. Doesn’t work with frozen pizza tho

If you don’t have an oven with a fan/convection, then sure, get an additional appliance.

You can make stews, soups and other things one would use a slow cooker for by taking a stainless steel or some other not-made-of-plastic pot and sticking it in the oven

Rant about kitchen appliances:

People should learn to use the things they most probably already have in their kitchen.

1. slow cooker is just a tiny pot shaped low temperature oven with a timer

2. Air fryer is a tiny oven with a fan

Why do people get so hyped about a smaller and more limited version of the thing they already have? Just use your oven which most likely already has all these features. I haven’t seen an electric oven without a fan or without a timer in my lifetime

Ah, yes, lets generate more needless waste

The /e/OS version of Fairphone 6 is still almost 50% cheaper, while providing slightly higher IP rating, 3 years longer warranty, schematics for board repair and a guarantee of 8 years of software updates. In addition to that, the phone is built ethically.

Murena phone has a faster GPU (2x) and up to 36% faster CPU, but only 2 years of warranty and 5 years of spare parts. Fairphone still has spare displays on sale for Fairphone 2, which came out a decade ago.

Hiroh phone also has a “sustainability” field in the specs, which is nice and empty

Fairphone doesn’t have any bloatware either (besides base google apps), yet their phones aren’t priced 1k+

Bonelli is a boner

Either that, or more realistically, the output of the company tanks during the summer. It’s ok because everyone expects most people to be on vacation during the summer time and everyone will just work around it.

Aaaand one of them is stuck in your skin

It is doable, but it is a pain if the docker requires any special config like permanent storage. Getting nginx up and running for mTLS was especially annoying

Truenas Scale works well as long as you don’t want any dockers on it. Once you want to run docker images it is easier to install a VM on Truenas and run the docker from there than it is to try to set up custom “Apps”

I remember making my own ringtone on the Nokia

Amphetamines and caffeine= sleepy time
