Es ist deprimierend wie oft innere europäische Grenzen hier sichtbar werden. Offensichtlich passen die Verbindungen nicht.

Zero expectations that anything in Germany will improve in our lifetime. The only thing left to do is to hedge our options and enjoy the squalor. 🍿

Back then I found Germany was quite advanced in many areas. I really don't know what happened.

The news from Germany are so depressing to read.
Whenever I visit, it feels like travelling back to the 90s.

Question over on the Orange Calamity Bucket says “I have 176 logins/accounts. How many do you have?”

Uh. There’s 1180 items in my Bitwarden vault with both username and password set. Another 159 with one or both missing. And a further 115 with both missing (why are these even here?!)

This is about 13 years worth going from 1Password → LastPass → Bitwarden.

I think I got about 400 in keepass and some more in Google and Firefox.

Dass so viele Radler unterwegs sind, finde ich angenehm, weil die Autofahrer dadurch quasi automatisch eingehegt werden. Wenn das bloß nicht 70% so nervende Fashionradler wären 😆

I swapped the DAC* on my Schiit Jotunheim today, it was a pain to do but got it all done and working. After I had everything back together I realized that I used a black screw internally (i.e. not visible) when I should've used a silver one. It’s really bugging me.

  • I swapped it for purely functional reasons, the old one had weird USB issues once in a while, not for BS audio reasons.

Q: Is 24-bit “high-resolution” digital audio audibly better than plain ol’ 16-bit (“CD quality”) audio?
A: Apparently not.

The older you get, the cheaper your equipment can be.

These are some other test that made me worry less about quality of audio:

    It makes sense though, because nobody in Europe has three kids.

    Report: I’m being sealioned. As in, real actual sea lions are invading the docks at our family's summer cabin. It’s nice that nature is coming back… sometimes. Sea Lions are noisy, smelly, smart, lazy, and defecate disgustingly and in massive quantities.

    If my Dad were still living he’d say “Huh, no problem really, just get a rifle, you’ll need a fairly big one.”

    Ich schiebe gerade das Rad aus der Haustür, als mein Nachbar nachhause kommt.

    Er so: "Na, wohin geht’s?“

    Ich so: „Cafe am neuen See“

    Er so (entsetzt): „MIT DEM FAHRRAD?!?“

    (Es sind knapp sieben Kilometer pro Richtung 😆)

    Alles mehr als 100 km ist aber wirklich gesponnen!

    The bullshit generator is great to write quick scripts to access APIs.
    Except when it is just making up end points.
    "Apologies for the confusion. You're right; the library doesn't provide this method ... here is a modified version."
    You just moved it into a function now!
    "Apologies for the oversight. You're right again"
    Now you made up another endpoint!
