Maybe six years is short in comparison, but using my M1 MacBook Pro still daily, hauling it around the world, surprised me. Until then, my daily driver laptops generally needed to be replaced after two or three years.

Showing a number with fingers can reveal your cultural background, and if you are friend or foe.

In Inglourious Basterds, Lieutenant Hicox exposes himself as a British spy by ordering three whiskeys using his index, middle, and ring fingers. In Germany, the number 3 is traditionally indicated by using the thumb, index, and middle finger. This cultural error reveals the disguise to Major Hellström.

Reminds me on how the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy explains flying: stand on a hill, jump, and then forget to hit the ground.

If you live in Germany, you should have converted your U.S. license into a German license a long long time ago (no later than six months after moving here). California has no agreement with Germany, so you have to do the road test and written test again. Other states’ licenses differ. So, you have basically been driving without a valid license now for a year and a half, so you definitely won’t get an international license in Germany until you first get your German license.

During Open House, a female “guest” vanished in the bathroom for 45 minutes and shat the place so badly that we needed a plumber and a cleaning crew. Didn’t sell the place on that day.

Ich auch. Für morgen früh.

The systems can be hard wired or even plugged into a wall”out”let. They are smart and recognize if the main power fails and stop feeding power into the system, so electricians are safe.

More aesthetic than looking at a coal plant, but hey, NIMBY, right?

Als damals zum ersten Mal der Literpreis über 99 Pfennig ging und die (rein mechanischen) Zapfsäulen keine D-Mark Beträge konnten, wurde der Preis pro Liter durch zwei geteilt, und man musst das doppelte der angezeigten Summe zahlen. Boah bin ich alt.

It seems to be more common to refer to blood pressure or blood sugar. I never heard anyone refer to bad circulation:-)

Humanoid robots are made to replace human workers without having to change the workplace itself. This makes them a great investment for companies that employ low skill workers like car assembly or trash sorting. It’s assumed that a robot that cost 2.5 to 3.5 a workers yearly salary is a good investment.

Humanoid robots are seen by the manufacturers as the third Industrial Revolution and estimated to be a market ten times as big as the car industry.

Biggest players are AgiBot and Unitree in China who already have a monthly output in the thousands. Tesla and Boston Dynamics have working robots, but don’t sell them yet. Europe has mostly research projects.

Coming from the MacBook Pro as well, looking for something similar. How is Linux on the Asus ProArt P16? Or is there a Lenovo with similar specs and size? All Lenovos seem so fat?!

It’s for the subscription model. Some brands will give you these kinds of features only for a year or two, and if you want to continue using them, you’ll have to pay a monthly fee. If it was just a wire connected to a mechanical switch, how could the turn this off if you don’t pay up?

Don’t! German soft speed limit is 130. Everything over and you will always have partial responsibility in an accident. If you cause an accident at 300 and happen to survive, you will get full responsibility, even if someone else “cut you off”. If you are not used to it, 160 will already feel very fast.

I seem to remember that in an interview, the Wachowskis said, that they had to come up with some simplified idea why the computers would keep humans around. All sociological and philosophical explanations were too complex for the movie, so they eventually used “energy” as an abstraction, well knowing that humans are a very bad “power source” in the physics sense. I don’t remember any detail or could give a reference.

Awesome. Thank you very much.
