I am writing this from mi9s. Bought it six years ago and I use and abuse it daily. The only thing I've replaced is the rubber back cover.

It's good phone but like with everything no software updates make it obsolete quickly. And bootlader unlocking is a pain in the ass. My next phone will be definitely something I can flash with Lineage once vendor decides it is no longer profitable to provide updates.

Not sure if best, but:

  • cleaning the kitchen in the evening. I listen to podcasts or music while doing it, and the mornings are easier as I don't have to confront mountains of dirty dishes.
  • reading - I try to dedicate at least one hour a day and read a book. I guess with general decline of the content on the Internet it got much easier to go offline.
  • meditation and relaxation techniques - I started doing this as a teenager and thanks to hours I've put in I have no problems falling asleep. Even when I am high on caffeine I can relax my body during the night and wake in the morning not feeling like a zombie.

Yet there if always mountains of money for ridiculous projects like superexpensive highways in the city or car subsidies. But building new affordable housing is always refused with an absurd excuse like "we don't want to distort free market principles".

I always wonder how resilient are these solar parks when a big hailstorm comes. There were some really large storms in Germany in the last couple of years and they caused really serious damage in the cities.

Maybe you have Chutzpah on your mind?

"a man who, having killed his mother and father, throws himself on the mercy of the court because he is an orphan" (Wikipedia)

In Germany they just always censor shotgun seat with a black rectangle. Precisely because of the same issue, someone's wife got hold of photo taken by the speed camera, with the husband and another woman on it, the guy sued and won privacy infringement claim.

In Berlin, in 2004, a letfist local newspaper Taz initiated a move to rename part of a street their office is located at in remembrance of Rudi-Dutschke. He was a prominent socialist activist in the 60s, even survived assassination but unfortunately died a couple of years later.

Another newspaper, Axel-Springer has their headquarters on the same street. The same company did play significant role in dissing the student movement Rudi-Dutschke was part of and some believe they are indirectly responsible for the assassination.

What ensued was a long legal battle, where the court had to decide whether the street could be renamed. Taz won the court case and in 2008 the street got its new name.

In 2009, Taz installed a sculpture displaying well-known editors of Bild (owned by Axel Springer), the most sold tabloid in Europe. Their chief editor Kai Diekmann (sic) sports an oversized dick that goes up to the roof of the building. Of course Bild tried to sue, but they lost and the sculpture is there to be enjoyed to this day.

In Germany, you can have fun, but it must be blessed by the court.

Stop obsessing about Reddit and create a content on Lemmy instead. People will come once they see there's enough activity here.

vim, neovim and a bunch of plugins. It's such a great productivity booster, I am using it daily for SW development.
