Try getting your hands on a Pi Zero 2 W. Here in Germany you cannot get them at all any more and the quoted price has gone up 3x.

If you don't feel like downloading a large model, you can also use `yap dictate`. Yap leverages the built-in models exposed though Speech.framework on macOS 26 (Tahoe).

The base model has only 128GB of storage. IMO they are pushing uses to upgrade storage more aggressively than ever. This should make up somewhat for the increased cost of volatile and non-volatile memory.

But cards are offline from the perspective of the consumer. Sometimes even on the merchant side of things. Not that it is an important distinction nowadays--but I have definitely tried to pay with a merchant's own app-based payment solution that refused to load due to a bad cellular connection. I haven't looked into how Wero will handle this.

One can see easily make out the power station Lichterfelde and the affected substation inside of it. The area to the east of the power station was without power between Saturday and Thursday morning.

The situation with chargers isn’t ideal. With a single USB-C port, everything works fine.

The problem starts when multiple ports are involved. Plugging in a second device can trigger unpredictable behavior, which is usually acceptable for battery-powered devices. But for devices that need a continuous power supply (e.g., a Raspberry Pi), multi-port chargers aren’t reliable –– connecting another device may briefly interrupt power.

Using a traditional power strip with one dedicated adapter per device avoids this issue.

For now, I’m sticking with individual USB-C adapters for non-battery-powered devices.

This might be more pure, but there is nothing to be gained. On the contrary, this would lead to very long sequences for which self-attention scales poorly.

Sketch used to be the first choice for app developers. However, it has always been macOS only and their collaboration tools were lacking for a long time. Don’t know about current differences though.

Link was broken for me. This one works: https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3430936

I can recommend Viu. They are available in some European markets and by focusing on a essential selection of frames, they are able to satisfy most peoples needs. Paid 150€ for mine.
