Exactly. There’s a minimum 4 weeks that can be increased in the employment contract. Going up to 3 months is not rare, depending on the industry/type of job.

And it works both ways, so if the employer wants to fire you, the same notice period applies.

I’m very happy with my FritzBox (7590), it handles de ADSL connection to the ISP, supports various DDNS providers, Wireguard VPN, 4 port gigabit switch (5 of you don’t need the WAN port), guest WiFi with client isolation.

It also has basic media server and NAS functionality (with USB3 external hard drives).

Of course you can change the DNS server and other network controls like QOS, wake on LAN, port forwarding, different profiles with parental controls, filters, connection times, etc.

They also seem to take security seriously.

Replicators! Yes!!

Some restaurants probably will still exist as a premium option. And chefs can create recipes and sell them online.

They’ll probably add DRM to it. Crap! 😬

It’s really great on the Stream Deck. The controls work perfectly. I played it a lot while commuting.

Any suggestions for overcoming addiction to capitalist big tech social media and streaming etc?

I’ve tried getting into peertube to have something to watch. I’m exploring copyleft music on open audio / funkwhale. I’m on here in lemmy as of this week. I’m playing with mastodon and the fediverse. I’ve tried studying psychology and psychology-adjacent territory like Deleuze and Guattari and Foucault and Derrida so I...

For a YouTube replacement, maybe look into Nebula, it’s a subscription streaming service, but owned by the content creators, no ads. It also has some podcasts.

Regarding music, I listen mostly to somaFM. It’s an Internet radio with lots of different stations. Mostly independent artists. It’s free, no subscription, no ads, listener supported (you can donate/buy merch to support them).

I don’t think it’s related. It’s been a new years tradition in Berlin for years.

I have friends and family in Berlin and I spent new year’s Eve there five years ago. It was totally crazy. People shooting fireworks at each other in the streets and from/to the balconies.

I ended up with a jacket full of burn holes, and we were in a kind of quiet neighborhood on the outskirts of the city.

It says that they have 50 full time employees.

It’s not only salaries:

about half of Signal’s overall operating budget goes towards recruiting, compensating, and retaining the people who build and care for Signal. When benefits, HR services, taxes, recruiting, and salaries are included, this translates to around $19 million dollars per year.

Yes, I agree it’s a lot.

I think that with “recruiting” and “HR services” they mean outsourced services, so maybe not all of it goes directly to the employees.

Great game! Just finished it on the Steam Deck.

Now I’m starting Botanicula. Loving it so far

Yes!! I used Linux back then (still do) and I absolutely hated M$, but I loved the Intellimouse.

The option was there, but it wasn’t ready for every day use. The performance impact was significant. The couple times I tried it, it was practically unusable. The UI also showed a warning about performance when you enabled it

Return to Monkey Island, Vampire Survivors and Northgard.

Plus, my boss bought an arcade cabinet for the office, so I’ve been playing lots of different arcade games, mostly Golden Axe, Bubble Bobble and Street Fighter II

One of the best games ever! Doing a vanilla Royalty run now, and looking forward to try Biotech later.

Great game! And very playable on mobile too. I also enjoyed Shapez a lot. Looking forward to the sequel.

I code in C/C++. Work laptop is windows, but the products run on various Linux and Unix flavors, as well as in Windows. So I use Clion on win, that syncs the code changes to a Linux VM for building and testing. The toolchain is in a docker image, so I can change the build and test environments without affecting each other. Since I need to test on different OSs, I have multiple VMs in a server at the office.

I like SomaFm. Lots of different ambient music stations without commercials. I Specially like SpaceStation and DroneZone for coding.
