Same, but even longer. I honestly can't remember the last time I used additional storage in a phone. My current phone has 512GB (was cheaper than the 256GB model due to a promotion) and after almost two years of usage I still only have about 77GB in use. I don't think I know anyone with a microSD card in their phone, which is probably why they're removing them, not enough people care anymore.

Put every game you want on your wishlist, make an account on https://isthereanydeal.com/ and link your Steam account, and receive a (configurable) e-mail when it's on sale which also tells you how much it's been on sale before. Never pay anywhere close to full price again. Except for the indie games that deserve it of course.

De rechter twee zijn wel echt heel schattig, dus kudos daarvoor. Maar ik begrijp wel waarom je voor Mondriaan hebt gekozen.

Matrix is federated, net als Lemmy. Je kan dus je eigen server draaien. En het is een open protocol met meerdere implementaties, de meeste open source. Het commerciële bedrijf wat er achter zit is Element, en die zijn Brits. Dus het klopt wel dat het Europees is. Het is meer op groepschats gericht, zoals Slack of een beetje Discord achting geloof ik. Heb er zelf wel naar gekeken maar nog geen ervaring mee, dus het kan zijn dat ik er met dat laatste een beetje naast zit.

Signal is ook Amerikaans 😄 Maar wel heel veel beter natuurlijk.

Ik zie de laatste tijd wel heel veel mensen er bij komen op Signal, maar of dat nou echt telt als de VS boycotten... 😄

Yeah it was, and the first episode hits quite hard on the heels of covid. I'm sure not everyone was ready for something that apocalyptic, but still.

My bank gave out a limited run of credit cards with this picture as a background a few years back and it looked gorgeous. It's been back to a boring slab of dark plastic ever since.

Station Eleven

It's absolutely criminal how little attention HBO gave this show. It wasn't even brought to Europe, so you can't watch it legally over here. But IMHO it's one of the best TV shows of the past few years, and it's a complete story so no cliffhangers. It's also one of the rare cases of a show being better than the book it was based on, and the book was already a bestseller.

Jesus Christ 600kW of power needed per rack. Most normal datacenters are still at something like 20 - 40 kW.

That already happened though. Tens of thousands of games on Steam can be played by hitting the install and then the play button. Only a few "competitive multiplayer" holdouts with rootkits and an irrational hatred of Linux don't work.
