Last time I worked with Odoo (v15/v16, enterprise, self hosted) we had to send a dump of the production database over to you to be migrated to the new version and then it was sent back. The upgrade path for third-party and custom addons was not defined. And since it is Odoo, everything is in that database: from employee's time tracking to customer support chats, from stock info to accounting data, from e-mail addresses to password hashes. I found this inacceptable but at that point we had no choice.

What's the state here?

Too lazy to build it: Physically accurate bird view of the solar system at year zero of <INSTERT CALENDAR>. Grab whatever object with your mouse and move until reaching the desired point in time. Like grab Pluto to get somewhat near today, finetune with our Moon.

Can you elaborate a bit? Why would that make my attention more valuable than other's?

Well then support an option to enable that kind behaviour? Make it an explicit decision by the devs. I think running in a type error and then adding an exception to your config is safer than silently pass and only learn about the mixed types in a production bug

While there seems to be an alternative, the root cause of Google's hostility to foss apps does not make me optimistic about this being a stable solution in the long run :(

Browsing without dependencies is a bit tricky due to a) deduplication, b) encryption and c) compression of restic's backups.

Mhm, I noticed the issue is not 100% clear from my description: I eventually got two votes in the same election

I voted in the 2021 election for the current German government. Later, I moved to Berlin, where they had to repeat the election this spring due to some screw-ups back then (turns out running a marathon on election day is not a good idea). So I was asked to vote again and I did. I checked with the authorities and everything is fine.

I suppose there's some noise in any voting system, and it's fine if the magnitude is small and its distribution random. Looking at the US, I'd be more worried about gerrymandering than a few votes from the dead.
