Man, I wish there were some pictures. I didn’t even know that there are LTE modems that small.

Tried with a few snippets, mostly just got a JS alert "Не удалось создать задачу".

GDPR was never about cookies but about freely given consent.

Two things that make Utiq absolutely terrible (and imho illegal)

1. It's crazy that any person who is using my internet connection (guest wifi?) can give "consent" that leads to everyone else being tracked.

2. ISPs are abusing their highly privileged position. It's not easy to switch providers (if at all possible), so as "gatekeepers" they should behave responsibly (c.f. DMA designated Gatekeepers etc) and not abuse their power.

I'm sure you already made up your mind about heat pumps and that I can't convince you otherwise. But for other readers, let me add some thoughts to your points.

1) well, there's a grid. So as long as someone somewhere on your continent produces green energy it is viable and green.

2) arguable. Depends on your legislation.

3) Again, there's a grid. And even considering the worst case of no renewable sources at all: A heat pump (which uses 1kWh of electricity to provide 3-6kWh of heat) powered by a diesel generator is still more efficient than burning the diesel directly. Now add efficient combined cycle power plants, wind, biomass, hydro and battery storage systems...

There was a time that XPS meant something. I’m still holding on to my XPS 13 9360. It’s (even for today’s standards) lightweight and Linux compatibility has been perfect from day one.

What do you mean by regime? Last time I checked Germany was still a democratic country?

I agree that it’s probably not a big amount. But note that it can be potentially quiet a bit more than the 90$. Task runtimes are always rounded up to the nearest minute.

For example, in our pipeline we have 5 different linter tasks (for different subprojects), running each only a few seconds. Nonetheless, we’ll get billed for 5 minutes on every commit.

TIL.

+1 for .http files

Also, TIL that these are not IntelliJ-specific (that’s where I use them)

Now I'm wondering which of these extensions and strategies are employed by mainstream mail clients like Thunderbird, Apple Mail and Outlook?

I'm currently doing remote work from a location with an instable connection. Naturally I expected mails to work well in an async fashion, but instead... everything is really janky and I'm always unsure whether actions like moving an mail to a different actually 'went through' without loosing any mails.

Wow. Disabling Transparency makes a huge difference on my iPhone 13 (sluggish, stuttering animations -> smooth af). Thanks!

May I ask where you got such a cheap VPS?

No offence, but "please don't do X" where X is favoured by the big majority of users AND has a broad scientific base sounds a bit... entitled?
