Ik krijg alleen de profile directory niet geladen van de lokale gebruikers. Nog iemand dat probleem heeft? @Dylan

Fijn dat men de last-mile van het pakjesvervoer probeert te verduurzamen. Is natuurlijk ook het meeste zichtbaar voor de burger. Maar tussen sorteercenta's bijvoorbeeld wordt er uitsluitend alleen over de weg getransporteerd en niet (deels) met de trein dat nog tot eind jaren '90 gedaan werdt.

Exploring #postmarketos #phosh on my Oneplus 6 😊

Has anyone tried to install #PostmarketOS on their smart display with #Google Assistant? Like the Lenovo Smart Clock 2? I know that it is possible to install 3rd party Android apps on it via the screenreader feature.

I've got one as a Birthday present a few years ago. But I'm afraid that it will be e-waste sooner or later.

Anyone else noticing that when deactivating your #Twitter account that the login page keeps refreshing? Anyway. I've finally said goodbye to Twitter.

Just setting up my own #Matrix instance. Like #Mastodon it's also decentralised so you can make contact to other Matrix servers as well.

It's also possible to create a bridge to 3rd party messaging apps like Messenger, Telegram or Whatsapp.

Is it just me of having a déjà vu when seeing the logo of #Twitter 's successor #x With the stylized 'X' in #Dexia ? A large Belgian bank which is now called #Belfius nowadays. The backslash looks almost identical and the forward slash has two strokes instead of one. I wonder if their logo designer used to work for Dexia/Belfius 🤔
