Our supermarket doesn’t have the scales, and let you scan in store with your phone. So it’s just a QC code and a tap to walk out, super convenient for me, and cheaper for them.
If I go to a store with a scale, I will for sure just walk straight to the manual queue.
- Comment on Bleep bloop 1 week ago:
There is a version with a scale. Where if your item is not within the small allowed weight, it will not work. I have also seen one with a camera, and if the AI things it is the wrong item it would also lock up.
Both of these options I hate because it gets 50-75% flagged wrong, and it’s literally faster just to wait in the old fashioned que
- Comment on Bleep bloop 1 week ago:
I like self checkout, or when you can scan the items in the store with your phone or scanned. But o-my-god please no weighting stations, there so much trouble I will avoid them at all cost

Good tip, I always just looked up dial-up sounds and played those. The robot calls will flag you as computer and leave you alone
- Comment on Why Should I... 3 weeks ago:
As a person who check all cheese in the supermarket for this. The current state (EU/NL) is almost 60%, 60% of the cheese in our supermarket is without murdering baby cows. Which I up from last year, and it has been trending up for a while.
I have no clue how other countries are doing, my guess us worse. Some france people still label ‘Fish’ as ‘Vegan’
- Comment on Why Should I... 3 weeks ago:
Fun fact, cheese is not always vegetarian. It can (quite often) contain animal rennet (from the inside of a young cow stomage, the cow needs to die for this)

- Comment on Google mistranslates the word because it uses English as a medium(probs). 5 weeks ago:
For German Dutch is does seem to do it directly. But I think it mostly is because a person has put in the effort for it.

- Comment on Google Maps Reviews in Germany are utterly pointless 1 month ago:
In Germany there some companies who after a few months just “force provement of visit” on all low reviews. And then the person who post the review is required do fight back and upload a receipt of the store. It’s verry annoying to find real good stores
- Comment on Amazon Alexa showing just how much they have embraced enshittification 1 month ago:
I have the problem with Google Assistant in Dutch that I asked for “speel muziek x” and it just starts to spel the words.
I’ve been moving to Music Assistant with nodes that use Nabu, so all local and it actually tries to do what I asked it for

I have a prediction. The sun will not run out in our lifetime and will keep on shining. Oil might be a problem, and become scarce

- Comment on Could heating oil subsidies be reduced or replaced with subsidies for installing electric heating and houses.? 2 months ago:
Our tax on natural gas is already higher than electric. If we buy the same amount of heat in a whole year (not accounting solar panels) we would save about €200 per year (almost 20%).
We have also bough an heatpump for €7000, of which we get abour €2300 as subsidies for a heatpump.
To answer your question, yes it could. But a knife will always cut on both sides, and people will always be unhappy about a change. But in this case the world would benefit from it so I think we should but more tax on non-renewable and put less on renewables
- Comment on Ok to dual boot Linux and Windows 10? 2 months ago:
Make your life easier, use seperated drives. Windows will “auto repair” (translate to ‘Wipe linux’) sometimes. Also a lot of windows issues with the updater not liking that there is another OS available at boot. But it is functional when booted
- Comment on Why are plug sockets region locked? 2 months ago:
For a better seperarion. You examples (laptops consoles phones) all run DC, meaning they Need to turn AC to DC, needing a PCB who does it who not design it for world use? For fridges, washing machines, dryers, they run on AC, they are cheaper to make if they just don’t have a PCB and run straight on AC.
Also note that EU kettles can run on USA network, they will just be horrible slow heaters (they are slower with about 230V/110V = ~2x)
- Comment on Why doesn't Android save app memory into storage instead of killing the process in RAM? 2 months ago:
Indeed, RAM is a memory latch by use of a capacitor. And on an interval it replenishes the charge of this capacitor . Thus when there is no power it will lose all its data.
These days it is possible (and Android has/does this) to just write old programs from RAM memory to the SSD, this is a slow process back and forth. But it saves RAM space and power.
- Comment on Why doesn't Android save app memory into storage instead of killing the process in RAM? 2 months ago:
I believe in the developer setting you can set up howmuch you wish to store in memory and such. But this has an impact on your battery life.
- Comment on What is negative voltage? 2 months ago:
Correct.
A good ‘at home’ example is your computer power supply
- Comment on What is negative voltage? 2 months ago:
This explanation is good indeed.
Sometimes you design a circuit where the main chip runs on +3.3V reference to the chips ground at 0V, but somewhere in the proces you end up with an extension board that wants 5V below the ground. For easy of use we just call this -5V instead of renaming everything to 0, 5, and 8,5V. Renaming also has the drawback that I like to measure everything reffering to the ground of the main chip. So I personally just don’t rename and keep my reference there.
