Thanks, it looks like it could be something but it only has DOCSIS 3.0, I will need to check if that’s enough.

I would like to just buy a modem but somehow I can’t find any cable modems in Germany. There are a few I could import from Amazon US but they apparently don’t support EuroDOCSIS. I used to have one from Cisco, provided by the ISP, that worked perfectly but with a contract change they demanded it back (a condition they did not tell me about and I’m still angry about that).

Oh man that would be amazing. My ISP at some point stopped giving out modems with the internet contract and instead only offers these shitty routers with integrated modems. I read somewhere that you can still get a modem if you asked. So I called and spend 15 minutes trying to describe the difference between a router and a modem and gave up.

Third result in DDG.

I don’t know how the contracts look but games on Apple Arcade get support years after release. It does work somehow.

Ah this is why they started showing screensavers now in the pause screen on the Apple TV app. They just needed this feature to bother people even more. Well, I won’t see it since I made the deal with the devil half a year ago and got Premium and I think it’s actually worth the money considering it’s my most watched streaming service by far.

This is fun! Unfortunately it’s always overwritten by someone else. I guess too many people playing at the same time?

Don’t get me started on how uncool this country actually is. You only ever hear the good news.

Only if the instance you’re on is not one of those fuckers that block Threads.

My personal life is fine but I see how we keep destroying our environment, how we keep torturing billions of animals every year while we can easily do without and how the extreme right is gaining power even in Germany. This makes me unhappy.

What a beautiful thought

And it might be a little wet

I think even more annoying are touch buttons on the steering wheel. It’s easy to just accidentally activate something with a light touch while steering. And when you do want to push it, it doesn’t work consistently. Mine even has different inputs depending on how long you touch it. I’ve heard that VW has the learned the lesson and will introduce real buttons again but apparently it takes a few years to change this simple thing in a car production even though they’ve been doing it in the past for many years.

Web developer :) I’m doing pretty good and if a job doesn’t offer Macs I can find another one. So why should I accept Windows?

Fine by me if that’s true. We Mac users are also the only ones at the company who don’t have managed computers and can do whatever we want with it.

It’s shit to work with Windows as a web developer. I did that for too many years and hated every second.

I don’t ask for, I demand a Mac.

Edit: I’m sorry that I’m privileged enough to be able to do that.

Edit2: Didn’t realize I’m in the linux sub, of course there will be outrage. If it helps you sleep better, Linux would be my second choice.

I see you’ve ordered HP

Some of our politicians in Germany love the idea of flying taxis and monorails but “luckily” they don’t like actually spending money on infrastructure so instead they opt to do nothing at all.

You think he would develop and build a whole tunnel boring machine and dig through Vegas just to sell a handful more cars? It’s not like the people potentially buying Teslas in the US would even consider going for a subway instead. If anything those people might use the subway in addition to driving a Tesla.

I’m a web developer and used to work for companies focused on SEO over quality. It’s a pain in the ass and takes all the fun out of the job.
