don’t let you intimidate by fancy camera gear or fancy locations. everyone can make okayish photos when they have top notch cameras and a great location.

the interesting part is to take everyday situations and a simple camera and still being able to create good photos!

social media influencer get expensive gear for free to show and tell how good and fancy it is, and what you can accomplish with it. nobody will post a good photo create by a potato camera and be proud of it. they also get holidays for free. but let assure you good photos don’t need expensive gear or fancy locations.

find the special things in everyday life!

how do you buy stuff online? do you read reviews on the big shopping platforms?

back in the day reviews were a good and honest way to find out if a product is usable. the idea was that normal people do honest reviews and other people can use that as a guidance.

this was probably true for some years, until the system got rigged: users were payed to take bad reviews offline, or users are payed to post good reviews. simple products with good reviews got exchanged with cheap complex products, so the reviews seemed to be for that product.

what you see is one part of this system: a seller is asking you to do free advertisement for them.

i think this is the correct question to ask. did you just create ~/.local/bin folder? you can look at the end of ~/.profile that this will only be added to $PATH if the folder exists.

the easiest way is to log out and log in (no restart necessary!)

otherwise you can also execute source ~/.profile and then yt-dlp should be available.

the chmod +x tip from the other comments could also be necessary!

not giving a fuck

still giving to much fucks, but at least i’m tying

thanks for the detailed answer!

what is the use case for cloudflare?

is it still self hosting if you use an external service like that?

maybe the installation is simple, but the whole thing is still a beast and has tons of different services and does a lot of stuff. i prefer forgejo because of it’s simplicity (still not super easy) and it takes less resources.

this only works if both have the same energy consumption.

this is probably not the case, so you also have to measure the energy consumption and then adapt the measured time accordingly.

It works fine with heise.de, and is worth a try on other pages, too.

I’m a big fan of mikrotik: Simple no bullshit devices, and OpenWrt is support on most of them, see https://toh.openwrt.org/

what a coincidence. i saw one, too :-)

i think it was an european robin, but i’m not 100% sure.

this sounds like a good excuse to bake an apple cake :-)

do you have a link to the recipe you like to ginger up?

didn’t know you could candy ginger yourself hat home, but does not sound too complicated. thanks for the idea!

i tried ginger beer once, but chickened out when it was time to pressurize it in a bottle, so it got moldy and i had it to throw out… maybe i should try this again…

kombucha seems a bit easier. let’s see if i can find a starter set…

so i peel them, chop them into smaller pices, and freez them? it’s really that easy?

and afterwards you put them into the water when cooking rice? who much do you use for that? do you also eat the ginger, or is it removed after cooking?

from my perspective there are two types of t-shirt acquisitions: a) you need cloths b) you want to spread a message.

i would think most of the fashion brand t-shirts fall mainly into a) with a little bit of c) you want to be part of a superior group

most of the funny t-shirts and band-t-shirts fall into category b) and basically you also place yourself into a certain group but into a smaller, more specific one. the big fashion brands are arbitrary so many people can identify with them. they don’t want to be associated with a real message, because then some people would be excluded from wearing that brand.

so the t-shirt presented as exhibit 1) certainly falls into category b). but i really can not come up with a message you want to send by wearing the t-shirt: it’s not the “font-nerd” it’s not the “web-dev-nerd” or anything like this. how big is the overlap of star-wars-fans and font-awesome users?

i think at the end it’s just a marketing department that jumps on the latest bandwagon of internet memes in the hope that they can gain some popularity.

they could produce t-shirts that are fun to wear and spread the brand more subtle, but in this case i completely agree with op: this is a very strange campaign. and i also think that the comments here comparing this with fashion brands completely miss the point.

i thought this too, because i don’t like the Oktoberfest. but then i looked at the numbers:

Von zehn Besuchern kommen statistisch sechs aus München und dem Umland, einer aus dem übrigen Bayern, einer aus dem übrigen Deutschland und zwei aus dem Ausland.[75]

https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oktoberfest#Besucher

translated:

out of ten guests, 6 are from Munich or surrounding, 1 from the rest of Bavaria, 1 from the rest of Germany and 2 from abroad.

i think its a military map. in the lower right you can see words on German, English and something eastern.

I had some note pad by the same brand, and its quite nice paper, not the usual printer paper, but smoother. if feels high quality. always wondered what’s the name for this paper. maybe i should search for this note pad…
