@jsonbecker I do need to wear a breathing mask at night at it is always a hassle when I need to use the phone with that mask on. Just smashing my thumb on the phone would really help.

@jsonbecker I love FaceID, but there are occasions when I miss the home button. If I could have a TouchID fallback I’d be over the moon.

@eurobubba it worked well in Lord of the Rings. I get that subtitles are more work for the audience, but I don’t buy the excuse that it is more work for the production team.

@pratik sounds interesting. I might give it a look.

@manton what annoys me most about the portrayal of the elves in Rings of Power is that their use of Sindarin is inconsistent. Why are they speaking common amongst each other and only when they want to say something with gravitas they switch to Sindarin. Makes no sense. It is just lazy on the part of the filmmakers.

@pratik I found it very entertaining. True the story itself is rather meh, but Clooney and Pitt riffing of each other is just fun to watch. The could argue about ice cream for two hours and I’d probably enjoy it. 😀

@pratik would you recommend it? What did you get out of it?

@pratik I see. But isn’t the backup part easily handled in the writing environment? Although I guess it is less ideal then having a backup of your actual blog.

@pratik what was you issue with Micro.blog again? Because isn’t that the simple solution you crave? Write in Drafts or iaWriter for safekeeping your posts and then publish to Micro.blog, which takes care of all the publishing and cross-posting and running your blog.

@odd here you go: BabylonDreams Etsy Shop It’s not fully done yet. This is a first batch of motives and just t-shirts for now. I’m pondering whether to add more clothing options like hoodies or caps.

@alexink because the cubes–and the granulated stuff–are essentially flavored salt. Broth or fond is just another product entirely in my opinion.

@manton but haven’t your heard? Apple knows best.

@slaws0 hello and welcome

@christianselig reminds me of when I got my first Mac—a MacBook Pro 17“. When I got home and placed it next to my desktop PC, the PC died there and then. Wouldn’t turn on anymore. It was like it saw the Mac and gave up the ghost.

@christianknaut tut mir sehr Leid dies zu lesen. Ich bin seit 3 Jahren mit Erwerbsminderungsrente unterwegs und bin sehr zufrieden damit. Ich hatte aber auch das Glück vorher recht gut verdient zu haben, so dass die Rente relativ hoch ausfällt.

@pratik I find Federico‘s writing style too verbose. He could use a little more inspiration from Hemingway in his writing style.

@christianknaut als jemand der Schwerbehindert ist und Erwerbsminderungsrente bekommt kann ich dir nur widersprechen. Cc: @die_rente

@alexink understood. Makes more sense now. I figured it must have been something like that.

@alexink the reason I ask is because from my (German) point of view, your account actually read like you were being the aggressor blocking her entry. From context I feel like there must be a cultural difference.

@alexink may I ask how you knew she wasn’t going to pay? Over here (Germany) there would be no way to tell. She might have a ticket already or have a monthly or even yearly ticket so she could just get on public transport without having to pay anything for that specific ride.

@hutaffe I do like his take on the mandatory default browser sheet. But that is more of a technical/design note, the thing he excels at. But getting in a huff about his precious Apple having to pay back taxes is just silly.

@hutaffe agreed. I like Gruber‘s take on most things. But his view on EU policy is mostly misguided.

@glennf but then he has all the best words anyway.
