Yeah, I use Zigbee with Home Assistant, it’s pretty great, except it sometimes bugs out and I have to restart a few devices.

I bike to work, so I automatically do a workout 2 times a day. I definetly wouldn’t be able to get myself to do sport 2 times a day otherwise.

Yes, but also no. The GDR and the Soviet Union who supported it and supplied it were both almost bankrupt and economically broken. Infrastructure was falling apart because the state couldn’t afford to fix it.

The potests sure helped, but the government of the GDR was also in a state where it would accept the demands as a way out. The protests probably did accelerate the downfall a bit, but it would have happened either way.

Similar protests years before were leading nowhere.

Shit, I just wanted to make that joke 😂

Guess I am not the only one.

Yup, it was debian. I think I tried adding another repo, but gave up before I got it to work. I didn’t try to just download the file, because I had done that before and all I could do is extract whatever is inside the file, but not install it.

It was around 2 years ago, maybe Linux has gotten that much more user friendly in the last two years, but I doubt it.

I just wanted to install steam, but it wasn’t in the package manager list.

Then I tried apt-get and that didnt work, I forgot why.

You don’t have to do seriously advanced stuff on linux to run into issues without using the terminal.

My point was, even if you actually do some advanced stuff on windows you still don’t have to use the terminal.

It’s not realistic that you don’t have to use the terminal on linux if you want to do any more than web browsing and some text editing, etc.

That doesn’t mean that linux is bad, but let’s be realistic about what it is.

I tried that on linux, it doesn’t work if you want to do more than browse the web and other basic stuff.

You can do some seriously advanced stuff on windows using only GUIs

I am just outraged that some people are starving because they can’t afford food while other people have so much money that they don’t even know how they could spend it all.

If I want to be able to access my trunk easily I will have to go forwards.

Otherwise I always go backwards.

Am I the only one who would find the woman at the left more attractive?

The right just looks like plastic to me, same with all of these instagram influencer ladies who have more plastic surgeries than I have fingers.

Here in Germany we mostly use traffic cameras to enforce speeding laws. Unless you are driving way too fast you will most likely not get pulled over by police, instead some police officers set up mobile (and well hidden) traffic cameras in problematic areas which will fine anyone going too fast.

We do still have some traffic police, but we dont have as many as in the US. They will pull you over if they think you are under the influence or because your car has illegal modifications or is broken in an unsafe way.

I cannot believe that people in the US can just modify their vehicle or let its condition deteiorate so much that it is unsafe and its completely legal.

That is not the case here in Germany and it does probably help make it safer, even if some people, who would do a safe modification, cannot do it because its too hard to get it certified.

Thats impossible.

Yup, I said its possible to seed clouds to create rain. I didn’t say its possible to seed the sky to create rain.

It is possible to seed clouds with silver iodide to get them to start raining.

Best thing is, when you finally do do the thing, everyone is going to be surprised. And you can say that you did tell them that you would do it.

Ask me how I know.

That sign looks too much like the sign for the “verkehrsberuhigter Bereich” sign in in my opinion.

Holy shit, 300mg caffeine sounds insane to me (a German). Over here Energy Drinks are not allowed to contain more than 32mg caffeine/100ml. So a big can (500ml) would have 160ml. Those are already a bit too much for me, I can only imagine how 300mg would feel.

What I really hate is when I want to buy something from a website that was linked from a US Youtuber and the only place that hints that they only ship to the US is that you can only select US states in the checkout.

Happened to me multiple times, its not that hard to list the places you ship to in your FAQ.

On the official YouTube App or Website the thumbs up button goes from a white outline to solid white when you click it, thats why he thought you did.

Hey that is my name, it doesnt have to be associated with the idiot Elon.
