    First introduced in the late 1970s as an effort to boost low voter turnout, postal voting was anchored in Swiss law in 1994. By 2006, all 26 cantons had introduced functioning systems.

    “It works well, so there’s not much debate about it,” says Uwe Serdült, a political scientist at the University of Zurich. Cantons report that around 90% of citizens now vote by post, and some have reported figures up to 97% (Aargau, 2017). There were debates about security in the early years of postal voting, Serdült says – as there are now around e-voting. But over the years it has been accepted, largely due to the high levels of trust in Switzerland – “vis-à-vis the state, and in the postal system”.

    Fairphone, Kamera ist für viele der Knackpunkt, aber für dich ja kein Problem

    Oder einfach den Akku tauschen, wenn das geht wie andere bereits gesagt haben

    > Das #Vertrauen in die #Wissenschaften scheint zunehmend zu bröckeln. Die Pandemie-Jahre, zurückgehaltene Forschungsergebnisse oder solche, die sich im Nachhinein als falsch erwiesen haben, haben diesen Trend zusätzlich verstärkt. Dann noch #Populisten, die Zweifel sähen und gezielte #Desinformation betreiben. Wem soll man da noch glauben? Gert Scobel schaut sich in einem neuen Video an, wie es um das Vertrauen in Wissenschaften bestellt ist.

    point all the lights down

    This is so simple but way too many don't do it. There is a streetlight that illuminates our room completely, even though it is 4 stories below...

    Fair point, but I think there are technical solutions for differentiation

    Another more crazy idea could be to use a remote (e.g. a smartphone) which communicates with lights to automatically have illuminaiton around you from public lights. People could even set their own brightness

    What about some combination of 2 and 3 with "smart" control, like motion activated or buttons that light up a street for the next 500m or so and turn off after some time

    While watching the video I couldn't stop thinking about the fediverse. It's basically self-organized social-media. While it is far from perfect it is so much better than the corporate alternative in terms of relevant content. I'm just sad that basically nobody I know personally actually uses the fediverse... --- https://piped.video/watch?v=AuZgTAW1QvA

    I think this is why I like solarpunk. It enables us to imagine a better world, focused on us instead of the economy or whatever society thinks the most important construct is.

    Note: I might just be uneducated on the subject. When I read about web3 with blockchains, smart contracts and dapps, all sounds very promising. But once you look for any real world applications it is just some obscure things that kind of only exist to support the decentralized system. I guess that makes sense, but are there any actual real world uses for that? Like day-to-day things that make a persons life easier, not harder?

    I love the new community! I created a website to swap plants, however it currently only works in Switzerland really (due to zipcode locaiton lookup). But I would like to extend it to more countries, at least in Europe. Feel free to have a look at https://pflaenz.li and test/use it for yourself! It is open source and you can contribute and look at the code on https://git.thisfro.ch/pflaenz.li/pflaenz.li Also any feedback is very welcome! <3

    My current water kettle leaks more by the day. It is mostly stainless steel, but the few plastic parts are corroded and lead to leaking. Do you have recommendations for fully stainless steel or similar kettles that are basically not able to break? I was looking at this: https://www.digitec.ch/de/s1/product/xiaomi-wasserkocher-170-l-wasserkocher-23599517 But I don't really trust xiaomi to make quality consumer products

    Fix leaking kettle

    Hi all I have an electric kettle I use to boil water often. I bought is because it is stainless steel, except for the indicator to see the water level. Of course this plastic part is now leaking... Does anyone have an idea how to fix it? My idea would be to fill it with silicone, but not sure if that is safe for use with foods

    Ich habe ein Projekt gestartet, das den Handel mit Pflanzen vereinfachen soll. Das soll auch völlig unkommerziell sein, und es werden so wenig Daten wie möglich über die Nutzer gesammelt (die Postleitzahl muss nicht angegeben werden, aber sie hilft bei der Suche in der Nähe). Die E-Mail-Adresse wird nur preisgegeben, wenn du jemandem ein Angebot machst. Die andere Person kann dann antworten, wenn sie dies möchte. Funktinoiert zurzeit leider nur in der Schweiz richtig (wegen PLZ). Funktionen: - Angebote erstellen - Angebote suchen und filtern (nach Titel, Postleitzahl/Entfernung) - Wunschzettel erstellen - Benutzer per E-Mail kontaktieren - Kategorien für Angebote - Deutsche und englische Übersetzungen **Link zum Ausprobieren: https://pflaenz.li/** Das Projekt ist Open-Source: https://git.thisfro.ch/pflaenz.li/pflaenz.li Vielleicht ist ja jemand an so etwas interessiert :) Ich freue mich über jede Rückmeldung!

    I have started a project that aims to simplify the trading of plants. It should also be entirely non-commercial, and as little data as possible will be collected about the users (postal code does not need to be provided, but it helps to search for nearby options). Your email address will only be revealed when you make an offer to someone. The other person can then respond to you if they wish. Features: - Create offers - Search and filter offers (by title, postal code/distance) - Create a wishlist - Contact users via email - Categories for offers - German and English translations (lmk if you would like to translate to French or Italian) **Link to try it out: https://pflaenz.li/** The project is open-source: https://git.thisfro.ch/pflaenz.li/pflaenz.li Maybe someone is interested in such a thing :) I'm happy for any feedback!
