I left NZ a few years ago and one of my main reasons were the lower incomes and high cost of housing. It all came down to the fact that I couldn’t even afford to rent a flat by my self, whereas right across the Tasman I could earn twice the salary and have a comparable if not lower cost of living.

Eventually I’ve ended up in Europe and I’m earning almost 4 times of what I was earning back home. I’ve considered coming back, bit the prospect of maybe never being able to own a home keeps me away.

No, never had an issue with Signal backups.

NZ is usually used as a Guinea pig by tech companies, small population, English speaking, etc.

However I think it might be that the Alll Blacks might face off the Springboks in the Rugby World Cup Final and Elon wants to minimise the shitposting on Twitter. /s

I had to replace the USB C port on my Fairphone 3, took about €30 and 10 minutes.

In any other phone it would’ve meant getting a complete new device

My sister’s job just switched to LibreOffice in 2018, OO is still alive and kicking in a lot of small companies

I am a light user so I just stayed on version 3.0.2

It works for my use case as it is and the day it doesn’t, I’ll look for whatever fork is most popular

A friend works for a large-ish company that makes a product on Unity (not a game tho) and he just told me they were moving to Godot ASAP

they do, my sister just bought one

no worries mate, idk why my comment was missing some words, spaces and letters

My sister shared me an Instagram reel for a [brand] bag review and asked me to buy it for her (there’s no [brand store] in her city).

It was such an obvious advertising campaign by the brand, when I walked into the store the same reel she shared me was playing in the store screens

There’s a museum of the incident with a reconstruction of the plane crash in Italy. Absolutely worth a visit. https://www.inbologna.it/the-museum-for-memory-of-ustica-in-bologna.html

It was known for a long time that the plane was downed by a missile, with the French being suspects.

I have the following apps backing up to a syncthing share

• Aegis
• OpenScale
• Gadgetbridge
• OpenTracks
• Signal

all of them were set and forget, except for Gadget bridge who would randomly loose access to the shared

The following apps allow to manually backup to a file, but not automatically.

• AntennaPod
• Catima
• Birday
• Tickmate

Also, the last mile issue is very real and needs to be solved.
