  • Hmm. Would be a workaround, but not really what I have and like with 1P.

    I currently have collected about 650 items in my 1P vault. Actually that are two vaults, as I share one with my wife.

    And notes itself aren’t structured, they are just free text. I like to have structured items with specified fields where I can enter my info.

    Also I have several login Items where I don’t just have a user, password, OTP, domain, note. What about if it is a service where the same account is used on different websites? I can save only one domain per password?

    The iOS features are so basic, I can’t imagine switching to them. Although 1P keeps to suck more, as 1P8 is only available via subscription and the 1P7 browser plugin isn’t working properly anymore. :/

    Not a good situation currently.




  • That’s why I switched sides. From programming myself to developing functions and writing requirements which someone else can implement into code. :)

    I could do some programming (did embedded C), but surely I wasn’t the very best in it. So now I’m the guy who defines what a small (but essential) part of SW has to do which will run in hopefully a few million cars in a couple of years. :) Much more fun (and money).

    Luckily the Discovery came from the past and saved everyone with the funghi-drive. :)

    Discovery had some nice ideas but… well. Alone the constant drama and crying Michael Burnham made the series quite unattractive.

    Also the story behind the great Dilithium Explosion. Well. A sad, and alone child. Well. They could have thought about something better.

    There were better ST series.







  • What about mobile apps? I’m on mastodon, but I basically never see the mastodon UI as I stick with Ivory (as I’m a former Tweetbot User on some ancient Microblogging Plattform which has transformed to something… else).

    I don’t want to use some „nice looking“ Webpages which are optimized for mobile screens. I want dedicated Apps, as they offer mostly the much better experience.

    I think the recent run of developing high class Mastodon Apps earlier this year (as the mentioned ancient Plattform kicked them out) gave mastodon an enormous boost.


  • By the way I’m not sure if Microsoft would be that sad if people would use Macs more than windows. As long as Microsoft can continue to sell Microsoft365 and alle their other Azure services. That’s where they make the money. They don’t really make money with windows.

    And with Satya Nadella Microsoft changed its focus: Bring the product to every single platform, not only windows. iCloud is nice, but I don’t see the huge functionality the Office Cloud brings into the game with all the tools Microsoft has to offer. Apple is here far far far away.

    So if in the end, the companies use Macs to access Microsoft365… well. 🤷‍♂️ it hopefully runs better than on windows.

    If hate my HP Elitebook 850 G6. Even with 32 GB RAM. It sucks.


  • Let’s see. I work at a huge corporation (tens of thousands employees each with his own laptop). Until now: only windows, currently since a few years HP Elitebooks (the suck completely if you need a little bit power) and optionally some zBooks.

    Some months ago they introduced MacBooks as another option. But with less support and some things a bit more complicated as the corporation completely relies on the AD user management.

    Unfortunately we have a ton of custom made software applications or specialized software which - of course - run only on windows. So currently, the MacBooks are only an option for the typical Outlook, PowerPoint, Excel user.

    I don’t see this being transferred to complete Mac compatibility within the next 10 years. Probably step by step (we just started using Codebeamer as our Requirements Engineering tool, which is completely web based. That’s nice. :)

    But that’s just the first step. We‘ll see in a few years.


  • The reliance on fossil fuel didn’t change a lot since shutdown of the last nuclear power plants. And basically… nuclear is also fossil. The fuel rods aren’t just there. They consist of materials which are mined. The difference is only that they are not emitting CO2. But instead the nuclear waste has to be stored for some thousand years. Germany already has a lot of tons of waste and still no place for final storage.

    And as we could see last year in France, nuclear isn’t also that much reliable too.

    The quitting of nuclear energy was still the right decision. The timing together with the Russian/Ukrainian war wasn’t the best, but unfortunate something like shutting down a nuclear plant ist something you can easily postpone when the plan is planned and startet to execute. Also a bad decision of previous german governments was to shut down nuclear plants and not building up a replacing renewable infrastructure. So in the end, there was no other choice for the current government to shut them down and rely on gas and coal a bit more than they wanted too.




  • Well… for iPhones (and other smartphones) I’m not sure if anything changes. There is a exception in the regulation: if the device is waterproof, it is enough if the manufacturer or repair shops can change the battery for you. They do not need to be user replaceable.

    But probably for MacBooks, there will be replaceable batteries in the future. I don’t see, how Apple will find a way around this regulation.

    Apple Watch: they are waterproof —> nothing changes.

    AirPods: well… are they waterproof? I don’t see user changeable batteries ever. Perhaps they will become waterproof in the future too? :) AirPods, now also for swimming and diving!

    iPads: well: probably there will be changeable batteries in the future. Or we will have underwater Tablets soon. We just need another input method. Probably gestures like the VisionPro?
