  • so i startet on kbin.social and lemmy.world, but kbin became shitty and overrun with bots. than i switched to kbin.run and now it seems to be down. No idea what actually happened there. Don’t think i will start a new kbin/mbin account for now. i think i will just stay on lemmy.world for now and not have an alternative instance as backup


  • It’s beautiful, but there was a good chance to get stuck everywhere in cars without all-wheel drive. In my neighborhood the snow services dont run through to remove the snow from road and parkings, so you have to do it by hand. Took 3 hours to free our house with 2 people and there was not much place left to shovel the snow too. Over night the temperatures dropped to ~ -12°C so everything is frozen now too. Can’t imagine what 70 cm in a day would be like. This was probably the highest single day snowfall i experienced, the only comparable time was i think in 2005

    But yeah has been a while since i last saw a white christmas. Nowadays the most snowfall seems to happen in february/march










  • A year ago I would have been absolutely for this. I mean I still had a smartphone with swappable battery (LG G4) 2015-2019 and only changed away from it because of the bootloop issues this phone had.

    Though last year i switched to the Zenphone 9 and this phone has a phenomenal battery time in my eyes. I only slow charge it to 80% every 2 days and I could use the phone for more than 48h if i wanted. Fully charged i can use it for 3 days. I don’t think i will see battery issues for a long time.

    I could see that some future phone designs and technologies (like bendable phones) would have it difficult to include swappable batteries. I wonder if those could still use fixed batteries if they offer a free replacement each year or sth like that, instead. The USB-C changes are good for sure though
