  • What’s wrong with reverse parking?

    • Backwards parking is actually easier because your front wheels turn.
    • It’s better for your future self. Backing out of a parking spot with reduced visibility is harder and can be dangerous.
    • Overall safety. I used to work in a company where reverse parking was mandatory because in case of an emergency the parking lot could be evacuated faster.
    • Better visibility when leaving the parking spot is safer for other traffic participants
















  • No background but I can read and listen. There are plenty of resources around.

    I started out of privacy concerns and I wanted to deGoogle It started this year with a RPI and pihole. Then I saw Mealie, bought a domain, and started sharing recipes with my family.

    At first I messed around with Casa OS. It’s like a gateway drug. So easy to use and get stuff running.

    Last week a 2nd hand i5 arrived and now I moved everything to proxmox. The RPI is still running pihole. At the moment I’m setting up Immich and I’m thinking about buying a NAS.

    Since it is a new hobby I keep everything low cost. If it sticks I’ll invest in a proper home server.


  • Took me a while to get that reference. In my mind Epsons are printers not projectors.

    I live in a country where cars are part of your salary. Especially because that part of your wage doesn’t get taxed. It is very clear that ‘they’ installed a very car centric thinking into society. Sure, some people aren’t affected or influenced but way too many people are.

    Since a few years bikes are treated in a likewise manner and now 30% of my colleages chooses a bike over a car. That has resulted in a surge of bike sales and that unfortunately. made them terribly expensive.

    I do like cars though. That’s why I hit the track a few times a year.
