Pineapple

Sounds like it is designed to make it difficult and cumbersome… which is the opposite of what you’d hope for a wide adoption of practice.

I always wonder why there are no pan-Europe deposit systems in place, or at least some sort of recognition across the countries.

Imagine you travel from one country to another, you grab a bottle of water for your trip, and then you are supposed to return that bottle only in the country where you originally got it.

Or you not only miss your deposit—sometimes you can’t even throw plastic bottles to recycling collection points just because the plastic bottle you got doesn’t have their local sign/icon printed on the packaging.

Any key at the corner. Usually arrow right. It doesn’t mess up my password during the time it is waking up where I’m unsure if it is missing one or two characters. Sometimes also [ or control or fn or even backspace depending which keyboard I’m using.

Sometimes you can set double tapping at the phone’s back to take a screenshot. At least it works on Pixel phones, I know.

But then Android Auto and NFC payment like Wallet/Pay won’t work…

Really appreciate your elaborate sharing! I tried installing Splitwise but it seems to require a subscription to use or only allow me to add a few entries. I don’t think I would be using it frequently enough to afford a subscription so I guess I will try out other alternatives suggested here.

Thanks though!

Thanks! I’ll check it out.

Thanks! I installed Splitwise and it seems to require a subscription to run? I think I’ll just be using it for a trip or maybe two so subscription for it is a bit too much.

How do you add a dictionary?

Could be a series of villain criminal superhero vampire romance stories.

I always find the privacy-sensitive Germans coexisting with Schufa for so many years bemusing.

I really had to think hard and I guess I seldom use it. I touch-type but somehow my body has learnt to use only the left hand for almost all the modifier keys no matter how many keys I have to press there. It’s actually a good idea that I only realise now that I should map that right shift for something else.

All the lingo and acronyms.

I tried their email out for some time and was contemplating fully switching over. But somewhat in their email has always felt broken to me. Some days it was the text editor. Other days it was the reader and account thumbnails. Their support was responsive but their engineering really gave the feeling that they didn’t care in the past few months.

I guess that’s why. I just wish something in tech isn’t just working towards an MVP and then once it is out or sold, goodbye.

Alternative to Google, they said. It didn’t seem so alternative by its way of hitting the graveyard.
