Personally my phone is my backup wallet though contactless payments. I may forget to bring my wallet with me, but never my phone .

Sad, but I guess somewhat understandable given the R&D competitors are putting in.
DrFuggles@feddit.deto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What are the highest quality search engines?71·1 year agoA 7 months old random fediverse account is a bot? You know that the entirety of the fediverse is like 0.001 percent of the user base of the social media giants?
That would be money really badly spent on astro-turfing bots.

Vollautomaten (I. E. Fully automated coffee machines that brew espressos and cappuccinos etc) tend to make worse coffee, I agree. That’s why I don’t use the one in the office.
Having an experienced barista grind you an exactly measured dose fresh for your coffee at a good Café is quite nice, on the other hand.
But that’s nothing to do with Germany or Australia.

Because that’s news to me. Germany tried to carve out an “E-Fuel” subsidy in the EU thanks to its libertarian DOT minister, but that’s a) literally meant as a drop-in replacement for gas and b) pretty much dead on arrival.
Everything I’ve followed so far seems to indicate that while BEVs have problems, H2 ist just massively less efficient to produce, store, distribute and burn.

DrFuggles@feddit.deto Technology@lemmy.world•What do you think of framework and their methods?English1·2 years agoThat sounds annoying, but manageable. To be fair, I’ve never had a Linux system that did suspend gracefully, so I’ve started to suspect it’s more a software issue with Linux in general.
DrFuggles@feddit.deto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•What are ways Renters (of a house) can get into alternative energy?101·2 years agoSeconded, same here, though if OP lives in the US chances are that’s illegal.
However, OP, it’s still worth a try imho if you have a way of doing it semi-stealthily. I got four used 220Wp panels, a used DC to ac converter and then plugged that right into an outlet. Now when the sun shines, we generate between 2-4kWh per day, which is usually used right up by appliances and chargers. We figure we’ll break even in 3-4 years, but that’s a bit skewed because of high electricity prices here on Germany and the low upfront costs of getting everything used and then installing it on our slanted sunroom roof conveniently facing southwest
lots of good advice here. I just want to restate: do yourself a favor and migrate your HDDs over to any solid state drive. Whether that means “classic” SSDs with a SATA-Port or M.2s is your prerogative, but in either case you’ll start wondering how you could ever stand that s pinning noise and the vibrations and the slow, slow data transfer.
