If you're in Berlin and want one of the most exciting bike infrastructure projects to become a reality then check out https://radbahn.berlin

Basically a 9km protected bike lane across the city under the U1/U3. The website has the details and if you have some time, fill out the survey (should be option 3 on the home page). I've tried the pilot track and it's lovely!

Yet another sign that despite constant naysaying, progress definitely is possible.

Almsot 2/3rd of newly built homes in Germany now come with heat pumps, gas is down to 20%. The trend is also expected to continue. 💪

Russian logic:
While Russia actively uses foreign weapons it buys from Iran, North Korea, etc. to attack sovereign Ukrainian territory all the time, it also claims that Ukraine using foreign made weapons on Russian territory to defend itself would somehow be inacceptable escalation. And the useful idiots agree.

Few things give me more Schadenfreude than zipping by a long line of cars stuck in rush hour traffic on a nice bike in perfect weather. Sun in my face, wind in my (very minimal) hair, life is good!

I genuinely think more people would convert if they tried it. Especially on a day with nice weather it's such a lovely thing

@percederberg I 100% agree. On the positive side, using the average monthly car costs you can probably have your bike stolen every 1-5 months and still be better off financially than the average car owner :P

Tom Warren says the new Snapdragon Dell XPS 13 has a tandem OLED screen already!

Very cool, I thought this would only happen with the next gen.

Bing and related search engines crashed today, because @Techaltar plugged Ecosia so hard in today's video, causing millions to suddenly switch, true story.

Scarlett Johansson is pissed and half the leadership team has rebelled. Again. OpenAI is starting to look more and more like the problem child. There is a good chance Google will beat them just by Pichai being more of the adult in the room

After seeing all the Snapdragon laptops, how are you feeling about them?

The Pixel 8 is the most buggy mainstream Android phone I ever had (my GF uses it and it just bootlooped itself for 20 whole minutes, often freezes, etc.).
Ironically, my Surface Pro 7 is also the most buggy Windows machine I ever owned and the Surface Pro X of my studio mate Kilian is currently unable to turn on, stuck on a boot screen.

You'd think that 1st party hardware would be the most stable, but in my small sample size I've never found that to be the case.

I literally can't think of a major bug on any of my Samsung phones, maybe ever. Never had any real issues on phones from LG, OPPO, Realme, etc. either. My self-built PC I threw together from random components has been working flawlessly. How come the OS makers themselves are this incompetent?

The fact that Notion will automatically launch its AI commands (which, afaik, is a paid feature I haven't subscribed to but it's trying to upsell me on) as soon as I press 'space' in an open text field is insane. Not some special character like /, but space!!!

People who use Apple's memojis or similar as profile pictures: I totally get that it's mostly anonymous while still somewhat personal, but ... do you find there is recognizability in it? My brain just subconsciously recognizes it as a memoji but then doesn't bother to look for any features. I never actually remember or recognize them. Is that just me?

Techaltar,
@Techaltar@mas.to avatar

@LoneLocust seems like they do! Welcome to social media, where people come to express and argue about their opinions :)

Techaltar,
@Techaltar@mas.to avatar

@LoneLocust ah OK then, sorry for assuming it. I just saw a memoji in the wild and had this realization that I could have seen it a hundred times and wouldn't have recognized it, which I found odd

@xadrav that's nice!
