sznowicki@lemmy.worldto Ukraine@sopuli.xyz•Expert says Russia long uses word “peace” to justify aggression, Poles understand this9·9 days agoIn Russian “peace” and “world” are both “mir”. So when Russians say we bring peace they mean we bring a Russian world upon you.
Pax Romana made by barbarians.
Ich vermute, es wird in zwei Jahren tot sein. Wero will wie das polnische Blik sein.
Das Problem ist, dass Blik im ganzen Land gefördert wurde. Die Einführung von Blik fand kurz vor einer Gesetzesänderung statt, die alle Geschäfte dazu verpflichtete, mindestens eine digitale Zahlungsmethode anzubieten. Das galt für alle, vom Großhändler bis zum Zuckerwatte-Opa.
Blik war für Händler kostenlos. Daher haben alle kleinen Unternehmen sofort die Blik-Handynummer in ihrem Laden ausgehängt.
Wero ist nicht bei allen Banken verfügbar, und manche Bäckereien wollen immer noch Steuern sparen. So wird sich nichts ändern.
sznowicki@lemmy.worldto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Have you tried self-hosting your own email recently?English1·17 days agoGood read. Now I want to do it too.
I’ll add your blog to my small search engine I you don’t mind (kukei.eu)
Also, you don’t need that cookie prompt. If you only use technical cookies and no tracking, no consent needed.
So far it never happened but just in case I always leave one of my keys at some neighbors. I do it anyway because if something happens like broken pipe, it’s good when someone can just enter home without destroying our doors.
Holy fuck. What country was it? Some kind of small forgotten by world country where time stopped during apartheid?
sznowicki@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What is that random movie that you watched multiple times throughout your childhood only because your family happened to own it's DVD (or VHS) ?10·3 months agoButch Cassidy and Sundance Kid. On VHS, with Polish voiceover.
sznowicki@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Have any of you ever actually done the cost comparison calculations for cooking vs buying pre-made, including cost of energy?1·4 months agoIn Poland there are small bistros that follow a tradition of communist “milk bars”. Some of them even deliver in a subscription model. This totally makes sense financially if it’s for just one person. You can eat there for really nice prices.
Other than that, when it’s for a family of even 2, it never makes sense financially to get food delivered.
Ready to heat food is another topic. Those can also be very competitive in terms of costs and they can be really healthy as in EU it’s forbidden to do any preservatives in that kind of food (frozen or pasteurized).
sznowicki@lemmy.worldto Fediverse@lemmy.world•Do instances exist where you can be 13+?English1·4 months agoIf I recall correctly beehaw is the one that federates with nearly no one right? If that’s the one I also think that would be most appropriate. They have good moderation and are safe space by design so this would be least problematic.
What is this for a name? In Silesian “chachara” is a female from “chachar” which means someone with no job, heavy drinker and potentially thief.
sznowicki@lemmy.worldto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Backup for important files/pictures?English9·4 months agoBorg + hetzner backup storage (that supports Borg and rsync but I use Borg so my backups are encrypted)
sznowicki@lemmy.worldto Linux@lemmy.ml•Which program is the one that surprised you most that it is available on Linux?2·4 months agoThey add referral codes to your sessions on Amazon and a like. This way all your purchases are feeding their ref accounts.
It’s not that bad practice if they’d do it as opt-in. I never consented to this and only figured out once when I looked at networking tab.
sznowicki@lemmy.worldto Linux@lemmy.ml•Which program is the one that surprised you most that it is available on Linux?11·4 months agoI use Edge on my Ubuntu setup. Tried all the browsers that integrate with KeepassXC and Edge won. It’s the only browser that has a nice UI with tabs on a sidebar, decent performance, nice devtools and is not doing shady shit like Vivaldi.
sznowicki@lemmy.worldto Explain Like I'm Five@lemmy.world•ELI5: Why does time slow down for something as it approaches the speed of light but then are suddenly fast when they are the speed of light or faster?English21·4 months agoTime for you is relative to your movement. You experience time because shit is moving inside of you. By shit I mean each particular atoms that build your body.
If you’d be close to a light speed, entirety of you would move in that speed. So for yourself the time is normal. One second is one second.
For someone observing you from earth, you’d blast the universe and after an hour you wouldn’t be visible any more.
For you tho, it’s not even a second.
Time is movement. No movement no time. If something moves then also time changes. If all your atoms would stop now you wouldn’t get older. Also you wouldn’t think any more and you wouldn’t notice any time.
Ps. I was at the same state as you some year ago. I’ve spent several hours absorbing this topic and eventually it clicked. Take your time.
sznowicki@lemmy.worldto Selfhosted@lemmy.world•GitHub - gardner/LocalLanguageTool: Self-hosted LanguageTool private instance is an offline alternative to GrammarlyEnglish17·5 months agoLooks like it is an actual LanguageTool server so it uses all the clients from them. They have tons of integrations that help a lot.
Source: using 3 languages every day while one of them I’m still shit and need this tool to not look like an idiot with no grammar
sznowicki@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.zip•Figma ignores the fear, files paperwork for an IPOEnglish42·6 months agoNaaah. They are already pretty well off on enterprise and pretty expensive for the others.
BTW Kubota ist ein polnisches Meme mit 90er-Jahre-nostalgischen Vibes. Ein polnisches Unternehmen hat die Markenrechte bezahlt und verkauft Kleidung mit Kubota-Branding.
sznowicki@lemmy.worldto Ukraine@sopuli.xyz•Over the last week, US military aid flights to Ukraine jumped, with 747 freighters delivering supplies from a number of locations: 2x from McGuire Air Force Base, 3x from Joint Base Charleston, 1x...16·6 months agoWe don’t know if they don’t fly empty to get some eggs from Poland.




Noted.
If this survives this week. I just turned into ollama.com cloud model to test it that way (need to go to sleep and my wife would kill me if we spend this night with that hot PC running 70% thermals :D).
I need to find something that hosts tiny models (cogito:3b was perfect for this task), not int my bedroom and doesn’t cost a fortune.
