- Comment on Will any UPS work with Linux? 3 weeks ago:
I just bought a random UPS at MediaMarkt back in the day in Poland and calculated that it would be able to power all the CCTV cams, the CCTV recorder, a raspberry pi and the modem which is connected to a long range WiFi antenna for at least half an hour. This worked very well for a couple of years until the battery gave up. The one I had had a ethernet port but I never bothered to set it up to send the signal.
Mine was running at my parents summer house in Poland while my parents live in Germany and I in Sweden and now in Korea, so if something breaks down it's down for up to a year until someone goes there to fix it.
Right now everything is down, my dad was there a couple of month ago and said that a marten chew up the Ethernet cables. Sadly my dad couldn't fix it so now I hope I will be able to get there during Christmas.
- Comment on Sitting too long can harm heart health, even for active people 5 weeks ago:
For the access fat it's the diet, exercise influences it very little.
I blame the standard diet with this huge amount of carbs at the bottom of the food pyramide.
But actually it's probably the huge proportion of ultra processed food.
- Comment on AI-generated poetry is indistinguishable from human-written poetry and is rated more favorably - Scientific Reports 1 month ago:
The difference is the intent and the background behind it.
Sure for maximum mass adoption the computer can out-research any human and just find the blandest set of rules which cater to the highest percentage of the majority.
What it still will have a hard time doing, and I predict it will be for quite some time - probably until we have quantum computers - is to come up with a new way of doing poetry which is not just copying what humans did but better.
I think of AI like it's China, they are super efficient in copeing things and gradually making them better and cheaper but the setup of their society makes it impossible to really innovate.
And yeah I'm saying that it's the setup, because in Taiwan they are able to innovate at a much higher rate.

Approximately 10 hours or more of sedentary behavior per day is associated with heightened risk of heart failure and cardiovascular death, even in those who regularly exercise.
This means every single office worker.

Uhm it looks very odd, like you somehow have miniature wrists.
- Comment on Apple Removes Ability to Run Unsigned Apps in macOS 15.1 1 month ago:
Nice, when they introduced the AppStore I was convinced that this would happen within a few years and as a developer I moved off Apple products and towards more open hardware and software. I was confused why - while they did it from the start on iOS - they kept allowing side-loading on their computers. In the end they just tried to cook the frog slowly so it wouldn't jump out of the saucepan.

- Comment on Selfhosted alternative to google keep/onenote/evernote/goodnotes? 2 months ago:
I use radicals for CalDAV and save notes there together with my calendars. On Android there is jtx Board which let's you work with them. Sadly on Linux I couldn't find anything so I started writing something myself but don't have much time to work on it.
- Comment on I can imagine the "will you be using the mobile app?" question to get cheaper food is going to devolve into the Mark of the Beast and someday no one will be able to buy anything without using the apps 2 months ago:
Once Elon evolves X to the everything app, we will finally enjoy what is what you describe and what is already the case in China.
I was there a month ago and we were driving through some rural area and the bus stopped so people can go to the toilet. There was a seller selling dried fruits in small plastic bags. I wanted to buy some and I had some cash on me, but the only way to pay was to use WeeChat and the QR code he had there.
- Comment on Is china as bad as america makes it out to be? 2 months ago:
I'd say not quite as bad, but it's still pretty bad. Especially if you like freedom, you won't have much fun there.
On the other side if you like political games, bootlicking and bribary you will have a very good time, not as a foreigner, but if you're Han Chinese and from a family which is already established in the party it's quite nice.

If that wasn't on purpose than that was a big fuckup. I was sometimes thinking about testing Bitwarden but with this volatile license situation I'm not interested anymore.

- Comment on Maybe all this AI bullshit might finally push people to touch grass and interact face to face some more 2 months ago:
And I said, what's the difference with lies in text in a newspaper and lies on video on youtube? There is no difference, so nothing will change.
- Comment on Maybe all this AI bullshit might finally push people to touch grass and interact face to face some more 2 months ago:
How is video different from text? We had a lot of lies and propaganda in newspapers durin WWII and everybody believed it, I don't think it will change just because it's a different medium now.

You put hops into your cider? That's the first time I'm hearing something like that. What is the cider made of, just normal apples?
- Comment on Study hack 2 months ago:
It was in Sweden.
- Comment on Study hack 2 months ago:
Yeah it was a fully online thing, they also had like a forum where you could talk to the other people taking the course but they just gave everything on day one so you could do it at the pace you wanted.
It was at the University of Umeå https://www.umu.se
- Comment on Study hack 2 months ago:
Before I started university I already worked as a web and iPhone developer.
At university I failed some courses so I needed the points for three additional courses at the end of my studies.
Durin summer vacation I found online courses from a different university which would count towards my own points. So I registered for three of them. Web development, iPhone development and open source development.
When the courses started I waited until the weekend and then did all assignments and tests for all 3 courses during a single day. I started in the morning on Sunday at 10 am and sent in my last test at 11pm. So instead of half a year (one course takes normally half of a semester and I had three), I did it in one day.

It also has mobile apps to do the backup and as a frond end on the phone. And what I really like is you can mount in your existing external libraries without copying all the pictures in and they will just be integrated automatically.

- Comment on FTC Says Social Media Platforms Engage in 'Vast Surveillance' of Users 3 months ago:
So this is why I switched to the fediverse. But to be honest, I have no idea if someone does things like that here or not. All my posts are public to everyone and machine readable. The only thing which would prevent someone of survailing users on the fediverse is it's very small scale. It is probably just not worth the effort.

- Comment on So professional looking it must be true 3 months ago:
Oh I forgot to add one thing about the Italian pizza. I've eaten pizza in Rome too, and it was practically as terrible as in Portland.
- Comment on So professional looking it must be true 3 months ago:
I couldn't disagree more. I've also been to Italy, specifically to Napoli, and just the dough alone is phenomenal, something between pancake and bread. Then the fresh tomatoes and mozzarella on top with the fresh basil leaves for the something extra - perfect balance, heaven in my mouth!
I've also been to the US (west coast, Portland) and Jebus, that was terrible. First they don't give you a pizza but a slice of pizza, then it's reheated because they make a lot of it and can't sell it fresh. The toppings is dry ham and tasteless cheese, a ton of cheese, but just flavorless cheese. I tried in a couple of places there with practically the same result. Thanks, but no thanks.
The Swedish pizza is probably what I would say is what you're talking about, tons of toppings and decent dough.
