I wonder if this goes away during winter when the humidity drops … That’s my only hope. 😅

This is what Audacity looks like after watching YouTube for a while:

The screen is two years old …
These ghost images go away after a while, but they’re annoying as heck. 😳

Oof. 😂 I personally go with “free software” for these reasons: https://www.gnu.org/philosophy/open-source-misses-the-point.html (In fact, I misunderstood “open source” for a very long time. Embarrassing, even.)

I’d go with “human readable formats”. Some arguments here: https://blog.codinghorror.com/there-aint-no-such-thing-as-plain-text/

I kind of miss the audible feedback of home computers, too. When the drives were active, you knew the machine was doing something. 🙃
(I still have hard disks, not just SSDs, but they’re so quiet these days that you hardly hear them anymore.)

Finding a specialist doctor in germany can be difficult. Not just eye doctors, but all of them. And when I *do* find a new doctor, I expect to have to wait for several months until I get an appointment. According to this statistic, there are only about 8.4 ophthalmologists for every 100'000 people in this country (in 2020). What the heck, isn’t that a bit low? 😂
You still get help in cases of emergency (afaik, they are even required by law to help you *if* it’s an emergency). Luckily, that’s not the case for me. Technically, I can wait. Still annoying. 😅

In fact, none of the ophthalmologists I called so far take new patients. 🙄 Might take a while until I find one … 😩
(Dude, “ophthalmologist”, what a word. In Germany, we call them “eye doctors”. 😂)

I saw a couple of these UFOs. 😅 Planes were crazy/desperate enough to approach the airport. They were flying right into the heart of the thunderstorm. Next day, I read reports that passengers couldn’t leave their plane, because everything was flooded at the airport. 🤷

I would have loved to work at that company during times like these, though:

Big machines. And you could actually understand what they’re doing and how they work. I hate that that is impossible these days.

Well, this report reminds me why I don’t do camps/festivals anymore. 😅 Sounds like a lot of fun on the one hand, but boy, a lot of work. 🥴
I take it this was a church thingy?

I indeed use very little of the computing power of that server. But it offers me a great deal of flexibility which I wouldn’t get otherwise.
