  • Partially, at least not what I use regularly. The account settings has a system for exporting settings, communities and block lists. You cant really retroactively move comments and posts to have been made by another user, but making a post on both the old and new users claiming eachother should propagate to other instances and be archived correctly.

  • Now don't get me wrong, I am not hype about moving from a great instance, but I feel this has been a great demonstration of why the federation is a good idea. All in all, migrating has been a fairly smooth experience, and most communities are either on other places or are moving fairly structured. Previously, closure of services or enshitification has caused me to spend weeks to months hunting for new places to read. This has been a great experience in most ways, and I think I can live happily jumping from instance to instance like this for a few years until I give up and set up my own.

  • Sometimes it randomly stops synchronizing without telling me, and I need to physically move between machines and locations to get everything back online again. Network issues can happen to any vendor, but why is there no notification for days at a time about it?

    Somewhat related, it happens that overdrive fails to read timestamps and deletes my work because another computer without it comes online. That's fairly unacceptable from a synchronization tool that demands to replace my hard drive.

  • Not an electrician, but I would imagine the danger being if the technician checked the wire was off locally, started work and then the home generator starts feeding mid work.

  • Men hvorfor i all videste verden holde seg til tysk når kontinentet har så mange andre språk også? Det er like mye kveld her nordpå som der nede, om noen ikke kan samtlige språk er det vel det britene kaller "skill issue".

  • It depends a bit what couldn't afford means in your context, but I would recommend paying for your own (cheap) domain. That way you can move between email providers if for example Google suddenly bundles AI in its plan and becomes too expensive. The whole package would come to ca. 30€/year here in Norway.

  • I've made a couple batches, mostly with honey and meadowsweet. Just remember to feed the brew with yeast nutrient along the way, so the fermentation doesn't get stuck eating only sugars. I like to remove the carbonation before bottling, but that is up to personal taste.

  • Debian Sid, the unstable rolling release branch of Debian. It has the worst of both Debian and Arch!

    On a more serious note, it allows me to have a somewhat standard Debian system with bleeding edge tooling.

  • The climate here is not economically competitive, we have fairly large toll walls and subsidies to protect local farmers. In a completely free market, most food production would be outcompeted by foreign goods. This does of course make food much more expensive for us than strictly needed, but it also gives a safe supply.

  • We have Grans Cola and extra cola here in Norway, probably a lot more as well, but shipping them internationally would probably not be worth the hassle if you have local produce. I can recommend club mate cola for import, its strange enough not to be too commonplace.

  • I don't know the details, but if you get hired for a position here while living abroad, you can get a work visa as skilled labour. That can later be converted to permanent residence after living here for some number of years and passing some language and/or culture test (I think). I know several people who have moved here either through work or university, including from the US. Best of luck no matter where you end up.
