I have a Bluesky invite, if anyone wants to leave this place and doesn’t like Mastodon… 😜

What Wikipedia did: we stood strong for our principles and fought to the Supreme Court of Turkey and won. This is what it means to treat freedom of expression as a principle rather than a slogan.

@EbenUpton would be great to get an update to your Dec 2022 post on supply chain progress, half a year later still no improvement in sight it seems… 🙏

@duolingo I‘m getting 5xx errors when I try to start a lesson. Haven’t logged in to Duolingo in a while. Is this a known issue? Tried over Wi-Fi and 5G, same problem every time.

@gebaerdenHD kann es sein, dass eure Website down ist?

[Stadt Düsseldorf @Duesseldorf]

In #Düsseldorf werden bis zu 200 #Grünpfeile für Radfahrer*innen eingeführt. Dort dürfen sie bei Rot rechts abbiegen - bei entsprechender Umsicht.
🚴🚦
Die Umsetzung erfolgt 2023 – nach Prüfung der über 600 Ampelanlagen im Stadtgebiet auf ihre Eignung.

@jensenharris @stevesi Also the multiple background processes it adds are totally unexplained. Besides Microsoft Update, what else does edge need to do while it’s not running?
Worst part is: if I turn them off, the Ventura notifications keep popping up every few minutes again and again 😒

@eLmaChrip @BMWK Im Rahmen der Umstellung auf erneuerbare Energien macht es doch Sinn, Stromtarife so zu gestalten, dass Strom teurer oder günstiger wird je nach Verfügbarkeit am Markt, und so einen Anreiz zum Sparen bei Knappheit zu geben. Dafür braucht aber jeder Anschluss einen Smart Meter.

@whatjoewrote @josephbrock Agree with both. I would add checking out Heidenpeters (a small brewery started by an artist), and Protokoll Bar if you’re bored.
BRLO has an excellent kitchen, too - would probably go there more for the food than the beer, which is good but not great!

@katie__arabella @ThreeUK This year is the first in a while where they tried to significantly differentiate the two with hardware, so the 14 isn’t actually a big jump in hardware from the 13, while the 14 pro got all the new hardware goodies this year (camera, dynamic island, always-on display, new CPU)…

Es ist gut wenn man prinzipiell einig ist, dass Brandstifter für die verursachten Schäden aufkommen müssen.

Nicht gut ist, sie weiter zündeln 🔥 zu lassen.

What if @taylorswift13 breaks up the Ticketmaster/LiveNation monopoly next? That would be an epic outcome…

@bnSonic @akrauss Also Nudeln ab sofort im Schnellkochtopf kochen?
