Betriebskrankenkassen warnen vor Pleite der Pflegeversicherung
Die Pflegeversicherung muss immer mehr Menschen versorgen. Nun schlagen die Betriebskrankenkassen Alarm: Die Pflegekasse stecke im Defizit, sie stehe kurz vor der Pleite. Die Kassen fordern einen Umbau der Versorgung.
@tagesschau Das ist doch mal ein Thema fuer den 11KM podcast: "Warum sind Pflegeheime privatisiert und nicht verstaatlicht?". Damit wird Geld verdient, auf Kosten der Allgemeinheit.
I noticed single houses and walls, made from this special stone. It's 大谷石/Oja-stone, sourced in the area around Utsunomiya. Easy to carve out and form, also insulating well - many of these houses store food.
Day 1/2 of this years rice planting.
While cycling, I saw this restaurant and got the "asparagus menu" recommended. Just a single big pice of asparagus, but very nice. After the 126km I stayed for a night in a hotel in Utsunomiya.
Next day: the beautiful valley where my friend lives.
First day of this year's trip to Tochigi-ken, for this year's rice planting. 126km to Uzunomiya. The bags attached to the bike make it much more convenient than the backpack I used last year.
@iramjohn I wonder if there is room for an open project to create a search engine where just pages get crawled/indexed which reach a certain level of the 'credibility' score. Basically, we as users who want proper information would via a browser plugin 'vote' for the credibility of the page we see, and if high enough it would get indexed.
'credibility' as in "I see this page is not a link farm", and such criteria.
As I got the Japan #HAMradio license, I unlocked also a new field of interest when going to Akihabara!
There are quite some shops with radio tech. Most interesting: I was every now and then in "Superpotato", a retro game shop. One of the most famous HAM radio stores is on the ground floor of the same building. Not sure how I could ignore that all these years. :)
At the skin doctor, first an assistant asks some questions and fills them into the computer, then says "wait for the doctor" and leaves me alone with the unlocked system. 5min, would have been enough to lookup data of other people.
"Something so easy, you can do it even before breakfast"
I introduced a friend to the #framework laptop, which can be self assembled easily, so 朝飯前.
Not yet shipping to Japan, unfortunately.
Let's take a task like "uncompressing a file".
It's clear that a Raspi is uncompressing slower than a new and shiny Thinkpad.. but the Thinkpad also uses much more power. Who is more energy efficient?
The article compares the energy efficiency of ARM/x86/RISC-V/AppleSilicon. The created framework can be used to easily compare energy efficiency of other tasks, i.e. kernel compilation.
AppleSilicon with #asahi#fedora remix shines for the uncompress task I looked at.
The Golden Week, a week with multiple holidays, is about to start in Japan.
At the end of our team meeting, the team leader reminds the team: "We all can finally recover from stress.. but don't overdo it! Driving under alcohol influence is against the law! etc." :)
@Jackobli Interesting.. can't check myself, the box with Mac OS X is at work.
The description for these products seems to say that resolution selection is not possible.
Apparently, Pachinko machines in Japan are mandated to use the Z80. Since this is related to gambling, it falls under specific laws, and the Security Communications Association only approves the Z80.
Now that it has reached the end of its life cycle, I wonder what they will do.
Wenn einen Toot geboostet hat und in seiner TL noch mal findet. Sollte man diesen nochmal boosten? Weil war ja gut oder? Und wenn ja(?), wie oft sollte man den boosten?
boost == "ich denke es ist wert das andere den Toot sehen/erfahren". Wir sind nicht bei X/twitter, also gehe ich schon beim ersten Toot davon aus das alle den Toot sehen. Den mehrmals zu posten waere dann nur stoerend.
Die andere Idee geht von Leuten aus die nicht alle Posts ihrer timeline lesen, da koennte es Sinn machen mehrmals zu posten. Aber ich gehe nicht von diesem Ansatz aus.
On Sunday, I went to Ota district by bike, to attend a friends concert: R. Wagner, R. Schumann, Beethoven.
Later enjoying the last sakura of this season at the Meguro river.
Und schon wieder ein bisschen aktiv gewesen. 25km mit Fahrrad und 10km zu Fuß. Da ich jeden Tag am Abend Workouts durchführe, war es gestern etwas anstrengend. Aber der Spaß und die Motivation sind wichtig, beides war vorhanden 🤣
Do you know a text which you are proud to be able to read in it's native language?
雨ニモマケズ is a beautiful text. It's now at my place in the office, printed pdf, generated with Kanji in classical vertical style, with #xelatex .
Some lines translated:
Unbeaten by the rain,
unbeaten by the wind,
[..] never be angry,
[..] this is the kind of person I want to be.
