Wenn N26 auch endlich mal eine Girocard hätte und diese auch noch in die Apple Wallet kann, dann bin ich auch dabei.

I fear being a nuisance to anybody so I rarely ask for help, even if it’s their job. 6/10 for that, it has improved.

If it’s just for the sake of being social, then it’s a 9/10. If I don’t have obvious common ground with people it’s nearly impossible for me.

Few years back I was invited to a party of a friend where I knew no one but her (and she was super busy). The people there were just so different to me, I could not find a conversation starter and was honestly not really interested in their lives anyways. It was a horrible time and I left early.

But somehow, once I find the right hook I can be quite charming and funny and even sometimes the center of attention, even around strangers. 2/10. It really depends on the situation, vibe and people.

But even if it’s going very well, my social battery runs low after some hours and I need alone time. The less effort I need to put in the longer I can go.

Ich hab ja nirgendwo gesagt dass ich dafür oder dagegen bin…

Small government or limited government is a principle and theory about government systems that have minimal intervention into the lives of the citizenry. This shares principles with libertarinism.

EDIT: Hä warum wird man dafür runtergewählt? Könnt ihr kein Englisch?

Sieht cool aus. Leider nicht für Playstation

Maybe the shortage was not real but imagine what would happen if it were. Rationing? Communists!

I don’t think resources would be plenty. Then look at Covid and how people behaved when toilet paper was suddenly a luxury. And then we at least had a somewhat functioning government.

I’m usually friendly but in a scenario like this it’s better to be very cautious of people.

Versteh ich das richtig, das sind jetzt alle Stimmen seit 2023?

If you manage to convert just one or two others to the cause, it’s a win already. If not, at least you are not part of the problem.

And for many of the things you listed I see a lot of progress compared to even 10 years in the past. Slow but steady.

That Whatsapp button is very annoying and can’t be removed. It feels like every app has a „helpful“ chatbot now that sits in the corner, occasionally telling you it exists. They really want everyone to use it. DDG at least gives you options to completely disable it.

But I agree it’s not a red flag for me, especially if I can hide it.

Vorsicht bei den Bonusrabatten von Stromanbietern. Das ist meist an die Bedingung gebunden dass du ein volles Jahr den Vertrag an dieser Adresse hast. Solltest du vorher umziehen oder eine Vertragsänderung durchführen, fällt der Bonus dann weg. Wenn man das nicht vorhat natürlich kein Problem, trotzdem genau lesen was beim Sternchen steht.

Als ich zuletzt gewechselt bin, habe ich auch mal Preise des gleichen Anbieters auf 12 Monate ausgerechnet zwischen 1 Jahres Vertrag mit Rabatt und monatlicher Kündigungsfrist ohne Rabatt und kam ungefähr aufs gleiche raus.

Generell stimmt es aber, dass es sich lohnt regelmäßig den Stromanbieter (und alle anderen auch) zu evaluieren!

Wenn man mit dem Anbieter selbst sehr zufrieden ist, macht es auch Sinn ab und zu mal die neuen Tarife mit dem eigenen zu vergleichen. Da kann es manchmal deutliche Verbesserungen geben (mir zuletzt mit Congstar passiert, die ich persönlich sehr empfehlen kann). Idealerweise auf eigene Faust und nicht spontan, wenn man es euch am Telefon verkaufen will.

Oh I didn’t see that. I’m in Germany, we do not allow single handed opening, locked blades and certain blade lengths. They have an option for exactly that. Good to know, thanks!

Still not sure if I will buy one since there will be a hefty shipping rates and import duties and whatnot. I very rarely buy anything outside the EU because of that.

I also watched the presentation with Adam Savage and you could see the creator was very nerdy about his product and every single feature. I loved it. But unfortunately this kind of knife is not allowed in my country so I can’t carry it around with me, making the whole thing useless.

If I understand it correctly, you’re worried about hurting Sues feelings. Talk with Sue then.

Why? We already have devices with Siri. I also don’t want it to listen to conversations and interrupt me with useless information.

Don’t get me wrong, it’s cute and cool tech (there was a video about it months ago) but I just don’t see the benefit.

What useful information does a 50 year old record give?

I’m very happy with Things. Been using it for 7 years with an occasional dip into Todoist and Apple Reminders just out of interest, but always coming back to Things.

It fits exactly how my brain works. The only annoyance is that I cannot tick off recurring tasks before they are scheduled.

The US has a Left?

Naja die Union hat bei der Wahl ja auch nur 29% bekommen und trotzdem von der Stimme des Volkes gefaselt. Das Wie ist einfach Dreistigkeit.
