- Comment on Is it possible to install my own OS on a "smart" TV? Is that a thing? 3 days ago:
In Germany, you may also use the built in DVB-C receiver of the TV for free TV and an additional CI card for pay TV. But cable companies want you to use their set top boxes.
- Comment on Is it possible to install my own OS on a "smart" TV? Is that a thing? 5 days ago:
Similar for me. I have an old Philips “smart” (actually today it is very dumb as basically all services are disabled and all apps heavily outdated) TV which I occasionally use for watching TV, but most times I use the attached Raspberry Pi with Kodi for watching public German Mediathek, Youtube or Amazon Prime.

A TV usually comes with a remote, a monitor doesn’t. Additionally, you can use it to watch linear TV if you don’t feel like making an election.
- Comment on How can I migrate my current Lemmy profile to another lemmy instance? 3 weeks ago:
AfaIk, posts and comments cannot be exported.
For the rest you may use the “export settings” function in the “personal settings” section on the webpage of your Lemmy instance (yet I don’t know what is actually exported).
Alternatively, you may use one of the tools mentioned in this post (the post is in German, the linked webpages are in English): https://slrpnk.net/post/10923543

Ah, obviously you’re right and bash is less tolerant than I’ve had in my mind. https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/an-introduction-to-useful-bash-aliases-and-functions
- Comment on Can Bash aliases be nested? 4 weeks ago:
Preferred over alias is function llaa { … }. Alias is for backwards compatibility.
Again what learned. What is wrong with having spaces around the equals sign, though?

The 600000 € probably include the development cost. Thus, on a larger scale, the cost per unit length will decrease significantly.

- Comment on Starlink is increasingly interfering with astronomy, scientists say 2 months ago:
Considering their instance, I’d assume they’re more out of their mind than huffing Elmo.
Another important part in this argumentation is that each type of telescope has its use case:
Extraterrestrial telescopes, as they are not objected by atmospheric blur can obtain much better ‘images’ from the cosmos even of weak, low brightness signals, which makes them best for observing the ‘far’ cosmos until the boundaries of recognition.
Yet, they are and always will be much more expensive and more difficult to maintain than terrestrial telescopes. Thus, using them for observing our cosmic front yard, the milky way, is like shooting with canons at sparrows.
Due to their cost, extraterrestrial telescopes also will always be ‘few’, too few to effectively keep track of the objects around us. Thus, ‘cheap’ terrestrial telescopes, large professional ones and small ones run by amateurs, will always be needed to observe the objects ‘closely’ around us, i.e. in our galaxis. - Comment on Starlink is increasingly interfering with astronomy, scientists say 2 months ago:
Don’t forget important discoveries are also made by amateurs, who permanently observe the night sky and measure the coordinates, i.e. their relative positions, of luminating objects. This allows others, mostly professionals, to calculate their motions and obtain information about the (hidden) masses, i.e. luminating and non luminating objects, inducing and influencing them.
- Comment on Starlink is increasingly interfering with astronomy, scientists say 2 months ago:
The number of satellites in orbit around Earth is rapidly increasing, with some 100,000 expected to be in place by 2030. And as their numbers grow, so does the difficulty of observing the universe from Earth.
So basically, our billion dollar radio telescopes are blind on certain frequencies during the rest of this decade.
- Comment on This Nightclub Turns Body Heat into Energy - YouTube 2 months ago:
The heat is probably stored in water by using a simple counter flow heat exchanger. So at night they are using the ‘cool’ ground water for cooling and during the day, they are using the ‘warm’ ground water for heating, probably involving a heat pump.

Maybe https://speechify.com/da/ works. At least they mention the recreation of the voice of your beloved one on their German page.
- Comment on How can I recreate my grandfathers voice? 2 months ago:
Maybe the term you are searching for is “AI voice cloning”. The engine of https://elevenlabs.io/voice-cloning claims to be able to understand and reproduce even Danish.

Yes you’re right. It’s more an untested hypothesis and no counter evidence has appeared by themselves to OC yet.

We can say thank you to Peter Altmeier for heavily harming the German solar and wind industry.

- Comment on Energy Efficiency: Why Are We Wasting Two-Thirds Of The Energy In Fossil Fuels? - CleanTechnica 4 months ago:
In large power plants, e.g. block D of natural gas power plant Emsland, you can get almost 60 %, but that’s neither the standard for power plants, which was like ~28 % in Germany a few years ago, nor is the technology applicable for small scale devices as car engines.
