Just a quick note for hosting a DB on a pi (or anything that uses SD cards for the OS), SD cards fail with some regularity, so I strongly suggest getting an NVMe board with a stick of SSD memory to store the actual files, because it’s much more reliable long term for data integrity. SD cards support reading large amounts but writes wear them out more quickly.

You can find great cases that come with the boards (but not the SSD, however that’s very easy to find separately).

For RPi 4 I have an Argon (NVMe board sold as accessory): https://argon40.com/products/argon-one-v2-case-for-raspberry-pi-4

And fro RPi 5 I have a Pironman case (NVMe comes as part of the kit): https://www.sunfounder.com/products/pironman-5-nvme-m-2-ssd-pcie-mini-pc-case-for-raspberry-pi-5

I recommend both of those but your use case may vary.

“hey baby why don’t we head back to my dry dock”

When I was at school (UK) there was a German girl and a Swiss girl talking in German and one of them said “Scheiser” really loudly, the teacher turnes and glared at them and slowly they realised why and had to apologise to the teacher, as they hadn’t really thought that while he couldn’t understand, he still knew the swear words!

Wasn’t a big deal was just funny and everyone laughed (incl teacher), needless to say they were a bit more cautious after that.

I thought so too before moving here, but there’s two cities, and a lot of empty space (in the north in particular) with lots of towns and villages, it’s not like Monaco or the Vatican City in that regard.

That being said, it’s still all very close together, you can drive from the northern most point to the south in about 1.5-2 hours.

The funniest thing I’ve learned about the geography is that there is a North/South divide where people from either don’t trust people from the other.

Schengen - the village in Luxembourg where the Schengen Agreement was signed. The population was 5196 in 2023 (appears to be the last census quoted on Wikipedia) and the “Schengen Area”, covered by the agreement represents 450m people.

I think OP was picturing a situation like this.

Thank you for sharing this. I’m going to try it out on my Italian friends :)

Yes, particularly as I get older the equipment doesn’t drain fully and needs a little help.

There’s a rhyme about it “no matter how much you shake and dance, the last few drops go down your pants”, well I choose to wipe instead of relying on the absorbance of my pants or trousers (the original saying is American so means trousers really).

I agree, the job of politicians is to reframe Trans rights as policies that benefit everyone. If everyone at a negotiation feels like they are winning you have a successful negotiation. Who cares if the new policy disproportionately benefits one group, we are all better off because of it, and in the case of Trans rights give them the same (non-codified) protections as everyone else.

(This is if course ignoring the oft used tactic of the far right which is to do the opposite and reframe beneficial policies (eh. ACA) as something that only benefits one group by calling it a funny name (eg. Obamacare), so it’s easier said than done, but that is what the democrats should be doing more of, imho)

I mean, yeah, he’d have to hold the phone, no way that thing would stay the nook of his shoulder with a neck like that!
