I always wonder if these areas the people’s legit feelings or is this “just for the sake of the show”.

I don’t know, sometimes there’s a flash of bright light at the end of the tunnel
- Comment on Breaking: Google is easing up on Android's new sideloading restrictions! 2 weeks ago:
I may simply have had a good run. But I do recall negative experience from the last, when I’ve used local SIMs. Ive been constantly harassed in some countries by their operators sending me ads all the time. Couldn’t be stopped.
No such issues currently with 2 eSIM providers that I use regularly.
- Comment on Breaking: Google is easing up on Android's new sideloading restrictions! 2 weeks ago:
I never claimed it worked better or worse. I’m saying my experience is good though. And the hassle is much less.
Can also come to another country prepared. I don’t have to be looking, swapping. It just works.

I never said it’s hard. It’s much more convenient. Can also come to another country prepared. I don’t have to be looking, swapping. It just works.
- Comment on Breaking: Google is easing up on Android's new sideloading restrictions! 2 weeks ago:
Very convenient for travel.
- Comment on Breaking: Google is easing up on Android's new sideloading restrictions! 2 weeks ago:
For me it is yeah. It’s really convenient when traveling.

I’m still slowly moving towards a Linux phone. That I can install whatever on, of course.
Maybe even eInk screen. Just that currently there’s nothing with eSIM as well.

Sadly it seems no e-SIM support?
- Comment on Microsoft wants you to talk to your PC and let AI control it 1 month ago:
As much as I hate the idea and do not intend to be a part of it, I think their idea is that you won’t be thinking in terms of folders anymore. You’ll just say what you need. According to them
I recall articles that younger generations don’t even really understand the concept of folders or files per se, because they’ve learned about them differently on smartphones.

- Comment on Phones may come without bundled USB cables in the future, if OEMs have their way 1 month ago:
Yeah. But they should literally charge less then. Even if only 5 buckaroos.

Isn’t it about the same in the series?
- Comment on Immich finally goes stable, a talk with the team 1 month ago:
There’s no reason there wouldn’t be a possibility. Maybe more effort, but simply duplicate what it does. Or launch in Docker and analyze how it’s done, then reproduce.

Oh man, I thought it was “just” me 🤣 To be fair, the light counts as well (Qnap).
- Comment on 1919 (correctly) 1 month ago:
I hate it… When you actually need a person you can’t reach them. Is it really so hard to toggle DND? I really haven’t got any issue with that.

Because they’re providing services over there and they’re subject to local laws.

Agreed. But then they’ll “simply” seize your domain. Federation is the way, and P2P.

- Comment on Card payment surcharges should be banned for debit and credit payments, RBA says 4 months ago:
Several neo-banks provide. free, instant SEPA transfers. Sure, it’s not debit, but it’s a form of free money transfer. Also monthly charge.
Yes, one might argue that you are the product then. But I really don’t see what they might be getting from these clients. Must be something I’m not aware of. No ads, no upsell (apart from occasional offer to paid plan), …
- Comment on Krafton plan to delay Subnautica 2 and deny the studio a $250 million bonus 4 months ago:
As nice as that sounds, you’re just asking for a gigantic lawsuit, most likely.
- Comment on Solar + Battery (covering 97% of demand) is now cheaper than coal and nuclear 4 months ago:
Still a lot. I have to say my cost was before the “recent” hikes. Though my house doesn’t share walls either.
- Comment on Solar + Battery (covering 97% of demand) is now cheaper than coal and nuclear 4 months ago:
I’ve got solar with net metering. But apparently I leave in a much gentler environment still, compared to you. Got a small house (<150sqm), winters reach -20°C and have sustained -10°C for multiple weeks and yet the bill hasn’t reached past 1400€/mo before solar panels. Everything in the house is runs on electricity.

- Comment on Solar + Battery (covering 97% of demand) is now cheaper than coal and nuclear 4 months ago:
Not where I live. By far. Not to mention that it doesn’t even cover winter months at all. Battery or no battery it doesn’t cover even the usage most of the time when the sun is out, let alone charge the battery.
- Comment on Solar + Battery (covering 97% of demand) is now cheaper than coal and nuclear 4 months ago:
Exactly that. My worst case winter month (not even by day and I like to be warm every day) is generating less than 25% of consumption. Not that other winter months are much better.

I’m guessing the ratio might be wildly different.
