Screeslope
As a browser, I notice that Lemmy seems much more dynamic and engaging. It’s small, weird and there appear to be all sorts of things going on in the corners which I didn’t notice so much on reddit (they were probably there, but got overlooked die to sheer volume of content). I like the experience so far, reminds me of the early days of exploring the web.
Actually I like having a “smaller” space. Reddit was already way too big, with an anonymous giant blob of users. I wouldn’t even have bothered writing an answer like I do now, since it would have been buried under 100s of other posts and comments within seconds. Sometimes smaller and slower are positive features, at least to me.
Kurzer Hijack: ich stehe vor einem Umzug und rechne damit, dass die Umstellung vom Internet in der neuen Wohnung ein paar Wochen brauchen wird. Der Normalzustand sind eine Synology NAS, Raspberry Pi mit Pihole und ein PC, die über einen ETH Switch an einer Fritzbox hängen. Mein Gedanke war jetzt, einfach ein LTE Modem an die Fritzbox zu klemmen und darüber die Außenverbindung zu bestreiten, bis mein Anschluss umgezogen ist. Sind Reiserouter ein sinnvoller Übergang, um meine Heiminfrastruktur in der Zwischenzeit ans Netz zu hängen?
Of course the comments on my local news site immediately filled with people crying about the dangers of electric cars… Not a good look for convincing people to switch to EVs. Though I do wonder how this will affect insurance premiums and subsequent shipping cost for manufacturers?
I think a key benefit here is that the pre-registration allows for faster processing at the border itself, cutting down on queues at the airport. Singapore runs a system where after preregistration you can just walk through an automated (though somewhat finicky) scanner. No queues after arrival, I basically stepped off the international flight and went straight to the city with barely a wait.
