It's one of the devices I really regret selling.

Maybe it was a test.

Pensioners in most western countries are the second most affluent cohort.

Working in IT and AI related fields I made the opposite observation. Taking as HR an example, professionals there wanted to keep the boring reporting tasks and automate the human part, e.g. career guidance, mediation etc.. At the time I could not understand the reason why. In hindsight it was a reward driven decision. Human to human interaction is rarely instantly rewarded. Producing reports on the other hand is measurable and mostly rewarded right away.

Microns stock is still up 470% yoy

It's a good smell. My kids are opening packs and I can totally recall the sensation of opening mtg cards in the 90s.

Fully agree, the led flashlight is ridicously useful.

Garmin watches might fit your requirements.

The best thing about Eneloops do not seem to leak. I can just leave them in rarely used electronic devices without worrying. They might discharge, but so far this has never been a problem.

Same with QiC80 drives. You could hear when the drive failed to read data.

Thank you. I was contemplating the logo but my brain could not make the connection.

As someone succinctly put it: The future is here, it is just very unevenly distributed.

I am still think that transfering state between devices is the next big thing(tm) waiting to happen. I am working on a file on my macbook, now I want to seamslessly move the whole application working on it to my nearby Windows machine and just continue. Seems impossible right now.

I wonder if this was driven by the Palm Pilots in the early 2000s. We beamed contacts, calendar entries, whole apps via IR. At trade shows exhibitors had terminals that would constantly send out contact informations via OBEX (?).

The people that push this agenda reside on secrecy. We need to expose the people involved and let the press do their jobs.

I had "Jugendliche". "Der" can make sense for a male person. But "die" would also work, for the female person.

Chicken egg situation. I would be interested to contribute, but I cannot run it on any of my devices. Alas I am not contributing.

There is also langflow.

Steve Jobs is no longer there to reign in the designers.

Unless I missed something they haven’t even completed their technology demonstrator (planned for 2026). No construction has taken place in 2025.

Perfect opportunity to point out that there is a 23x slowed down version of Brian Enos Windows 95 startup sound https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fNIfbdi41ho

We need an app that starts a user defined timer when I open a doom scrolling app. Unless the timer reaches 0, I cannot use the app. So for example, in order to browse reddit, I need to wait a minute. Delayed gratification.

A time capsule still intact on the Apple store.

Vastly better article. More pictures and details.

As a German, let me capitalize letters by pressing shift at the end of the word. Swiftkey had this feature. Afaik GBoard does not.

Do you have any numbers regarding companies that have left Germany because of energy costs?

I think the 4.1 percent that nuclear was providing was not having the impact you are assuming. Also the amount of energy produced by natural gas and renewables more than offset the cost of nuclear.

Hm, the available data does not support your point/sentiment that energy prices are increasing for industrial customers in Germany. (see https://www.bdew.de/service/daten-und-grafiken/bdew-strompre... or https://www.statista.com/statistics/1050448/industrial-elect...)

Economist and economy ministry advisor Jens Südekum called the analysis’s results “astonishing.” Commenting on social media platform X, Südekum pointed out that industry prices had fallen “significantly” and that price indicators continued to point downwards. The trend would be similar for private households, albeit at a slower pace, he argued. Once current contracts expire, Südekum said lower prices should become widespread in new ones. “Overall, the BDEW figures don’t chime with current mood in debates, which is that everything is going down the drain due to high energy prices,” he argued.

More often than not it is the wiring connecting the showerheads that is not well done. I got zapped at least once when I worked in Brazil so I took extra care handling the lever that selects the temperature.
