Citation needed. I've never heard of this being an issue (certainly not an "infamous" one) and almost everyone I know constantly travels by train and uses the app regularly. Maybe you're mixing things up with Deutschlandticket apps by regional transport associations, but that's not DB's fault.

Tickets get hidden from the default view once they're expired, but that's to be expected and you can press the prominent "Previous trips" button to see them.

If a project taking a stance against people spamming the n-word makes you lose respect for them, that says a lot more about you than the project.

There's a nuanced technical discussion about the merits of adding this to Mastodon and whether the effort would really be worth it. Eugen made some reasonable points against it.

But instead of engaging with the discussion in good faith, people like you automatically assume the worst intentions and claim Eugen personally is "blocking progress" like there's some grand conspiracy (Instead of the much more boring reality of limited dev time and having to prioritize things).

For example the old tiles displayed rail tracks extremely prominently, which just aren't relevant 99% of the time even when traveling by train. In the vector tiles they're much more muted and thinner.

I think there were also some technical details I liked better about Litestar where it was more explicit about things while FastAPI was more "opaque magic happening in the background", but to be honest I don't remember all of those.

For me the reason to use Borg over Restic has always been that it was _much_ faster due to using a server-side daemon that could filter/compress things. The downside being you can’t use something like S3 as storage (but services like Borgbase or Hetzner Storage Boxes support Borg).

That’s probably changed with the server backend, but with the same downside.

As I understand it, the new organization is supposed to be a non-profit association (e.V.), which is a distinct type of organization under German law that enforces democratic decision-making and enables people to become voting members of the NGO.

It's a bit difficult to explain as there is no analogue in most common law systems (sadly).

Having to go through the iPhone two factor dance every time I want to just play music is so annoying that it's made me consider going back to Spotify.

This is in stark contrast to Spotify, where after a while it would invariably throw in some songs that just did not fit in at all with the rest, and it made for a jarring experience. I've never really had that happen with Apple Music.

For a very long time, there were substantial issues with getting traffic from Hetzner to Deutsche Telekom for similar reasons. At the time, when you rented a server at Hetzner you could actually pay extra to get 'premium' routing to Deutsche Telekom though Core Backbone (AS33891), which did make the ransom payments (unlike Hetzner itself).

They were also hard at work undermining net neutrality for a while by zero-rating some companies on their mobile network until they were stopped by courts.

I'm not sure what's going on in this specific case, but I'm not inclined to give them the benefit of the doubt.
