Do you have a source for this claim? Otherwise, please don't spread unsubstantiated rumors. All reported Corona deaths in the German media that I am aware of were linked to pre-existing health conditions.

There are reports from Switzerland that the government considers to block video streaming as the Swisscom infrastructure is overly taxed. I have only been able to find German language sources (I'd suggest to try DeepL translator or sim

I like the app (on Android though) and paid 3 Euros or so once. Their weather and rain "radars" are really useful.

There's usually two types of reverse-vending machines in a German store: One that takes refillable bottles from glass or hard plastics to be brought back to the bottler, which have been part of a deposit system for ages, and another on

But the English word "journey" has precisely the same roots as today's French "journée": A journey may have been a day's worth of traveling. A "journeyman" was paid day by day.

I could not reproduce the example issues from the blog post, but the dual asterices inside the back ticks still fail for me. The upside is that it's now possible to have bold passages in monospaced text. I missed that before.

I just tried the new web client for the first time: Both issues highlighted in the blog post seem to have been fixed already. As it stands it does not actually feel all that disruptive to me. It's a bit annoying that there is no way to

I was thinking of parcel deliveries. Narrowish European inner city streets are regularly blocked by delivery trucks and fundamentally it's unnecessarily many of them because there are so many different companies servicing the same stre

Did I hit a nerve by picking public transport as an example? If it does not work out, regulations are bad. Competing non cooperating infrastructure service providers are a bad idea if they hinder each other.

But surely they would rather have one truck service a shorter route than have two trucks service the same longer route if it leads to the same overall utilization rate.

I feel delivery companies should bid for providing service for the last couple of kilometers, then the winner should get an exclusive contract for some time frame. That's how it's done for other services like regional rail public
