With weekends, public holidays and vacation days I work 220 days a year and with 8 hours a day that’s probably not far off the total hours of the 150 work day medieval peasant
I’m not saying that there isn’t a housing crisis but that article is a huge pile of BS.
I’m not familiar with Paris but I doubt there are a lot of furnished studio apartments compared to ones without furniture so the 6 months seems like cherry picked data.
Also the part where they talk about rent prices compared to median income is just wrong:
In London, the average rent for a one-bedroom flat in the city centre is now nearly €2,500 per month. The sum is more than three times the median monthly wage in the UK.
So you’re telling me the median monthly wage in the uk is ~800€, yeah right…
The same thing is happening in Amsterdam, with the average rent being over €1,500 per month, more than two times the median wage in the Netherlands.
Oh and in the Netherlands it’s less than 750€?
A quick google search tells me that the median wage in the uk is ~2600€ and for the netherlands I couldn’t find a value for the median wage but the average in 2022 according to statista is >4000€ a month.
I see a lot of people claim they tune/calibrate their printer any time they use a new spool of filament. But does anyone actually do this? It feels like a waste of time when filament is so consistent, even between brands. I can understand doing it for specialty rolls, but for basic pla? Seems unnecessary
I usually print a temp tower when I get new filament that I haven’t used before. It doesn’t take that long and if it prevents a failed print it’s totally worth it.
I’ve been fascinated by single-purpose devices such as iPods for music, flip-phones for communication, and e-readers for ebooks. Considering that my interest for these devices has reached an all-time high, I was wondering: Why has the iPod died out while e-readers continue to thrive and see growth? Don’t they both serve the...
A dedicated e-reader is way better for reading than a smartphone or tablet. They use e-ink screens which are better for your eyes and for battery life.
Also there are dedicated mobile music players. A lot of them are targeted at the audiophile market and can drive high impedance headphones and have a high quality dac. But most people aren't audiophiles and don't use headphones that would benefit from something better than a smartphone.

Da ich Reddit zu >90% in der (old) Desktop Version nutze wird sich an meinem Nutzungsverhalten nur wenig ändern. Selbst wenn ich irgendwann mal kein Reddit mehr benutzen sollte werde ich meinen Account nicht vollständig löschen. Einige Beiträge könnten auch in vielen Jahren noch für andere hilfreich sein, die vielleicht mit einer Google Suche drauf stoßen.

Do people actually tune their printer for each new roll of filament?
