I know that in Poland there patronite.pl works great, but it seems to be unavailable in other languages.

Check Vinted and Sellpy (or any other second-hand, but these have the widest choice of products). You might just get your favorite product second-hand with no profit for the original producer ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Well, yeah, I guess they remove smoke detectors from their houses, as they could create smoke anxiety when a fire breaks out ¯_(ツ)_/¯

I've used Pocketbook for years. Durable equipment, good battery, simple but robust OS. The company was first founded in Kyiv and then moved its headquarters to Switzerland. Production, to the best of my knowledge, is in Taiwan. Highly recommended.

Amazing. They are the best app for hiking (Komoot might be nice for planning, but nobody has the paths mapped so well - middle of nowhere, north of Sweden, Georgia, Mauritius, everywhere ti had silly small paths mapped for me).

I hope they can also be an option in the city. I don't drive, but I need to check their public transport coverage, and accuracy of opening hours ^‿^

Whatever you think about the pro-Palestinian movement, the Palestine Cola just tastes good.

And also, as an alternative to Coca Cola, think what Coca Cola stands for and if this is what you prefer ;)

Alright, that is a bit uplifting.

I have one more skeptical comment/question: I would imagine the difference between 70s and now is that the new aircrafts have some digital component to them. And that the US could ensure they can use the digital part to "turn the aircraft off" for their "national security". I have a very limited knowledge on the subject, so maybe this is all inspirational thinking...

Mastodon.social has millions of users (and millions were active at some points in time):

Can't the US shut them down?

I have too many people into arthouse around, but especially when it comes to movies I have long been watching more European than American stuff.

Ruben Östlund makes both movies that are fun and deep (e.g. "Triangle of Sadness", "The Square").

I love Kusturica's movies. A touch of magical realism and humour from the Balkans. His political views are... let's just say you do not have to agree much with the views of an artist to enjoy his work ;)

"Do Not Expect Too Much from the End of the World" is a great recent comedy from the Romanian Radu Jude.

"Blue Is the Warmest Colour" is a beautiful lesbian love story.

Petro Almodovar has made incredible melodramas.

I can also very much recommend "Cold War" by Paweł Pawlikowski (another love story, but this time with a very sensitible perspective on Central European history in the background).

Lukas Dhont makes very touching movies, I have rarely cried as much on a movie as on his "Close".
