  • I am writing this from mi9s. Bought it six years ago and I use and abuse it daily. The only thing I’ve replaced is the rubber back cover.

    It’s good phone but like with everything no software updates make it obsolete quickly. And bootlader unlocking is a pain in the ass. My next phone will be definitely something I can flash with Lineage once vendor decides it is no longer profitable to provide updates.











  • Not sure if best, but:

    • cleaning the kitchen in the evening. I listen to podcasts or music while doing it, and the mornings are easier as I don’t have to confront mountains of dirty dishes.
    • reading - I try to dedicate at least one hour a day and read a book. I guess with general decline of the content on the Internet it got much easier to go offline.
    • meditation and relaxation techniques - I started doing this as a teenager and thanks to hours I’ve put in I have no problems falling asleep. Even when I am high on caffeine I can relax my body during the night and wake in the morning not feeling like a zombie.


  • They collect minor things like search terms and app usage info. The rest is stored on the server only if you explicitly upload a photo or a recorded track or something similar. No collection of location data or WiFi networks etc. The telemetry can be blocked of course if you have such setup (VPN+pihole for example)

    Yeah it was nice. I didn’t do the highway route because the kid wanted the child-friendly part, but still it was really nice to see so many people in the streets.

    There were people coming from other cities as well, riding the whole night to get to Berlin on Sunday. Love it.

    By the way, 32k sounds a lot, but in its heyday there were 200k people riding around. Even last year with 50k crowd it was completely different feeling, the inner city almost without cars.
