In der Bahn-App kannst du auch Adressen eingeben, die findet dann selbst die nächste Haltestelle.

It could be done if peertube used a scheme like BitTorrent. We are approaching a time where enough users have sufficient upstream bandwidth for video.

But then, even without hosting costs, creating videos takes much more time and effort than writing a short text.

I once lived in a small village (population 160). You could still see the former school building, the former grocery shop. Both had been closed when everyone got a car. The only infrastructure left was a pub.

Cars killed infrastructure in rural communities. First, it was nice to be able to shop in the cheaper shops in the city by car. Then the local shop closed and the car became a necessity.

But at least no wrinkles after ironing..

Making progress on linen shorts. The belt fits, despite some unfortunate inaccuracies while attaching the waistband. Button hole and button are next. Or hemming..

Bahntickets müssen endlich Länder- und Bahngesellschaft- übergreifend buchbar werden. Es ist unfassbar, dass ich zig Apps brauche, um in Europa mit dem Zug zu fahren.

Bei Telefonnetzen existiert seit Jahrzehnten die Regulierung, dass die an einer Verbindung beteiligten Firmen untereinander abrechnen. Als Magentakunde muss ich nicht wissen, ob mein Gesprächspartner bei Vodafone ist.

There are also medical conditions that happen so slowly, people don't notice them. Here in Germany, no medical examinations are required for older drivers. You are 80, can't walk properly anymore? The car lobby will fight for your right to still drive your SUV. Or else we would have to think about rural public transportation.

Before I had a cataract surgery, I thought my vision was not good but acceptable, just need new glasses. Only after the surgery I realized how bad it was (there are some weeks between left and right eye surgery, so one has a side by side comparison). Good thing that I stopped driving cars in 1995.

Wie machen das heute Baumärkte, die Schweißbrenner vermieten? Wenn jemand damit beim Safeknacken erwischt wird, wird das Tatwerkzeug auch eingezogen. Das Problem ist, das Rasen hier nicht als Straftat sondern als nicht so ernstzunehmende 'Verkehrssünde' gilt. Wer mit +60 km/h über erlaubt erwischt wird, gilt als toller Hecht und nicht als Verbrecher.

Gibts in der Schweiz schon lange. Rasen -> Straftat -> Einziehung des Tatwerkzeugs.

Es gibt auch immer wieder Katastrophen. Aber heute ist das sehr professionell durchorganisiert, mit Hilfe der besten Experten auf dem Gebiet Crowd Control - der Staat kann sich das leisten. Aber die Herausforderung ist gewaltig, Pilger aus allen Bildungsschichten und Kulturen - außerhalb der Hadsch oft im Krieg miteinander. Daran gemessen haben die das sehr gut Griff.

GPS. In the 80s, I learned how to navigate by taking the bearing of landmarks. It took some time and gave you only a general idea where you were.

When I got my first GPS device in the late 90s, it was breathtaking. And at that time, the accuracy was still degraded for civilians.

The idea that a navigation device can show on which side of the road you are on - in real time! -feels like magic.
