I usually wear an FFP3 at CCC events when I'm in an enclosed space. The only issues I've had so far is when carrying heavy loads (we need Engel, btw!) I sometimes soak the mask in sweat so quickly that I need to replace it every h

Considering covid safety measures also help avoid the flu, the common cold, Norovirus and RSV, it'd be wise if we as society found a way to keep them up even if COVID becomes endemic. Especially considering how with every previous cong

Well, society ignored the problem of infection through aerosols far too long. Now at least some care is taken, and some spaces bought and configured large air filter systems to allow unmasking without infection risk. You don't want a r

There will be an infection control concept for the congress itself, but that's not fully planned as of yet. Many CCC spaces currently require proof of vaccination, daily testing and rigorous masking, and while Congress will likely be a

> The ratio of the median income to the median housing cost is significantly worse You're again quoting income vs the price to buy property. You're arguing against a strawman with that. The argument is about the cost to rent,

It's primarily the missing middle. Skyscrapers and high rises only work for luxury apartments or shitty soviet style blocks. Single family homes only work in rural areas. The vast majority of cities and housing demand is in-between, wh

Well, they threatened LibreSignal with legal action, both for accessing their service and for using the Signal name, demanding that any third party client runs their own entire separate server network. Sounds pretty much like a ban.

Some hosters will freely give out the personal data of who owns what, others won't. This would explain why only some hosters are affected and not others.

Jellyfin works perfectly fine with subtitles. But if you use ASS subtitles, which are entirely unspecified and unsupported and only have a single working implementation that requires half of Wine to work correctly, well, then you're f

Whether you heat the water in the dishwasher or in an instant water heater, it's still going to be the same amount of electricity for the same cost. I think in the US people might heat water with natural gas, which is cheaper, but that

Sure, it optionally supports it, but that's an extra water line that'd need to be run. And what for? Whether the instant water heater or the dishwasher heats the water, it's still going to be the same amount of electricity, t

At least in Germany, dishwashers are hooked up to the cold water line. No matter what I do with my sink, the dishwasher will never get hot water on its inlet.

> Other countries' dishwashers are also connected to the hot water supply. No? I'm in Germany, all dishwashers I've ever had were connected to cold water and heat their own water.

Ah sorry, you're indeed right. Some PET materials would also contain BPA. Either way, I'd be careful.

Yes, but the best way to wash Lego bricks is to disassemble the build, put the bricks into a washing net (the type you'd use for a bra), and put it in a european-style washing machine together with your regular clothes. It'll come

BPA-containing materials are not food-grade in EU.

If you use ABS or MABS bricks, yes. If you use older PP bricks, I'd recommend against it.

That's the point — even my relatively affordable (for a home theater setup) system is still far outside the price range of 99.9% of the world. So for the vast majority of people, the only way to properly listen to a movie is in cinemas

Tbh, all the Apple Music tracks I've heard so far were absolutely underwhelming. If you can recommend some great tracks, please do tell!

Atmos or DTS:X or Aura3D content sounds absolutely incredible, with a proper setup. And yet, most atmos mixes aren't very good. Even movies with good atmos mixes for cinema often have a shitty mix on streaming or BR with only the surro

It turns out the people who want to be addressed by neutral gender usually don't care as much about Siezen and honorifics, so the systems I built usually just go with "Hallo" or "Moin". I even had one system which w

That's hilarious, so the Pixel 2 not only dropped the 2.5mm port, it also dropped the USB3 cable. One could speculate that the moment Google knew their phone was a success, they stopped caring about open standards.

My Pixel 1 came with a blue USB 3.0 cable, which handles 5Gbps just fine.

Most modern color laser printers actually use LED arrays. If your laser printer has the same speed (pages/second) for b/w and for color, it's very likely using an LED array. The printer I got from brother is definitely using
