"1) unreliable

Same for classical contraceptives ("the pill"), it's just women who bear the consequences.

@libreleah Apparently people you do business with. ๐
@libreleah Isn't paper an appropriate shock absorber? ๐ค Most people don't have that much bubble wrap lying around to fill a whole box with a laptop in it, and you never know how much those boxes will be abused in shipping.
I once even used empty plastic bottles since they were squishy (which, in Germany, is even somewhat of a donation due to the "Pfand" system, lol).
@solidsanek @kaia Without the financial incentive for the reseller you'd have probably been boned indeed.

@NeonPurpleStar @hannah Time to make a Bluesky account
@kaia @thatbrickster why?
@lizzy @kaia Oh god, I wish. Meanwhile me at 19ยฐC: "god damn, it gets hot".
Wish Germany spoke the same language as some Scandinavian EU country so I could just live there, where it's way more comfy. Wearing whatever-gender-just-comfy clothes.
Getting sick is part of the experience of going to a congress, isn't it? ๐
@toast @kaia Or put the installation package for dhcpcd on a usb stick and have pacman install it from there.
@selzero lol, this thing looks like a bad copy of a german high-speed train someone accidentally stepped on.
@Suiseiseki @jalict @CiaraNi @lispi314 You guys are actively making things worse for people. Your instance name is telling though.
@jalict @CiaraNi Haha, yeahโฆ and Mastodon is probably *the* social network where you'll get barraged by comments of IT hobbyists who somewhat miss that, for many people, a computer isn't more than a car or a toilet. It should just work, tinkering with it doesn't have to be exciting.
To share a buyer's guide for ready-to-use Linux devices would be more useful in most cases. Got an old one here, in case someone wants one (better open in desktop view though).

Can someone tell me if there's a fix for this weird phenomena with metal-case laptops (could be magnesium, dunno) where, when connected to a charger, the device got this weird "haptic humming" to it when touched? Not sure how to describe itโฆ it doesn't seem like static electricity (which would be way worse, obviously), but like the metal vibrates if you move your skin over it. Only happens if it's connected to the charger, I noticed this with different devices & chargers.

@antmetsa @kaia Ich habe so ein Ding. Es ist unglaublich nutzlos.
I'd like a box where I go into, which first does a 30 second power-washing cycle followed by a another strong 30-60 second drying cycle. Optional body lotion spraying included.
I like the result of a good shower, but doing it is annoying.
@grillchen @kaia I do use Recyclingfabrik, a german / EU company. They're pretty reasonable with their pricing (22-24โฌ for rPLA and rPETG), and if you send in stuff you also get points based on usable weight that can be used for a discount. And really, if you can afford a printer you can also afford two closed bins for PLA and PETGโฆ
By now pure PHA filament has also become affordable with ~25โฌ / 750g. Only true bioplastic that I know of.
Of course the best to do is to show resourceful humility.
@kaia "Have something around my keys"
Likeโฆ your keys?
