Following some advices, playing with fedora 39beta sway spin. I have to say that I don't have nor bugs nor bad surprises.

@movq Oh, very nice! :-) We don't have them around here.
@prologic That's what I was thinking, too. ;-) But no clue how that suddenly happened. Didn't touch the source code for ages.
@lyse Fingers crossed, dude. 🤞

@movq In the beginning that was very strange, since I was a big fan of handshakes. But now that I'm used to it, I rarely do anymore. Basically just if somebody else insists.
So far, I still feel healthy, no signs of the plague.
@prologic I mean not just work. :-) But yeah, I strictly separate personal and work stuff, too.

There are a few moorhens at the local pond. Yesterday, one of their young ones came veeeeeery close to me. Pretty unusual. 🤔 Maybe bad eyesight? It was getting dark already …

I hate that this is becoming normal again. Abolishing handshakes was one of the few good things that came from Covid. 🫤

Regarding the original issue with my battery: I have some hopes that it’s just a calibration issue. I did a couple of drain-and-recharge cycles and it looks better now. 🤔 The battery isn’t “puffed up”, either. So maybe I can use it for a little while longer …
I didn’t expect that I have to do this, because I sometimes forget about that phone and it completely discharges anyway. 😅 So I would have expected that it’s at least somewhat calibrated. 🤷

Oh, I can understand that. 😅 I’m a bit more egoistic in that regard, though: I often have my phone on silent mode, but I still carry it with me, so that *I* can call an ambulance or something. 😈

This is the primary reason why I NEVER install "Work" apps on my iPhone. I've gotten into the habit for many years now, never to mix work and personal stuff. If I'm not on my Work Macbook, I'm not available -- end of story.

[47°09′06″S, 126°43′26″W] Dosimeter malfunction
Hmmm, I noticed that tt is incorrectly counting unread messages. There's currently one unread one, but it says 0. When I mark it read, the counter goes to -1. It certainly worked a few weeks back. I probably should work on version 2.
@bender Hahaha! :-D To make it clear, I'm not one of those esoteric radiation jerks. I simply don't have enough use cases to justify one. And then comes the absolutely horrific UX I'm not willing to deal with. Lots of people love it, I just don't. Finally, in this day and age I do enjoy that I'm not reachable everywhere. There's not even a chance of getting distracted. All my good mates don't have an issue with that, at least they do not admit it. ;-) Of course there are people that think I'm silly, but I don't care about them.

@lyse a risk taker! Next you are telling us you often do bungee jumping! :-D Kidding, kidding. I know someone around here that does similarly; no mobile phones. He sure stands out as a sore thumb!

@bender It's Germany, there's no middle of nowhere. Sadly. Definitely not where I am. In case of urgent emergencies in nature, somebody is fucked, no doubt. I'm happily taking that risk.
[47°09′04″S, 126°43′32″W] Waiting for carrier
@lyse what happens if you get stranded with a broken car in the middle of no where? Or if an emergency comes up where there is no landline? In the US landlines are disappearing, mobile phones have taken their place.

@movq No private mobile phone at all, just landline telephone. I have a company smart phone but it sucks balls and I don't want to even use it for anything unless I really have to. It covers two use cases, 2FA and accepting/rejecting meeting invites (somehow my desktop mail client can't send meeting replies reliably). 99% of the time the phone sits either on the desk (during work hours) or lays in the drawer (after quitting time). So it moves less than a meter each workday. And for obvious reasons I have to take it to the office with me, too.
@lyse So you got no cellphone at all or just no smartphone? 🤔

@bender SUVs are known for their fuel efficiencies…
@movq No doubt, that's for sure. The only thing I can say: Works for me since forever.
@movq Thanks, yeah. Let's hope that we still get a few apples from these trees (they're marked for public use) in a few weeks.
Had to go to the office today. Leaving the house, some nice reddish spots appeared in the sky, probably saw a hedgehog and by the time I reached the train station, the sunrise had fully emerged. Unfortuntely, I did not have a camera with me, so I had to enjoy this super crazy, ultra red sky on the platform and can't show you anything. It was easily one of the most beautiful sunrises of this year. A very large section of the sky was very, very red.
This evening I had to go for a quick stoll after suffering from terrible seating conditions in this meeting room. I met a few friends on the way and shook their hands. Then it occurred to one of them that this was a bad move, he's home sick with a sore throat and a positive corona test. I watched like a hawk to not touch myself with that hand and sanitized the crap out of me when I got home. Let this cup pass from me. On the truly positive side, however, I saw a squirrel, the rest of the sunset (I missed the best part in the forest), six deer on a paddock and a bat flying over me couple of times. Good yield.

@rrraksamam there are plenty of under $400 laptops to chose from. Check Amazon, and filter “under $500”. Same applies to smartphones. Sadly, I don’t have a specific one to recommend because—and not trying to come across as a snob—I don’t “usually” buy cheap things. 😅
@movq yes, she spends 2.5/hours a day commuting, and her old (2010) SUV now runs at 21mpg (around 34km per 3.8litres). In the US everything is quite far apart. 😩
