Classic stuff.

So the rail networks are operated by private companies? I am not familiar with the various acronyms, but that would certainly explain the complexity... Everyone wanting their slice of the pie.

It certainly looks complicated:

Transport services are provided by over 40 companies. These include the Bayerische Oberlandbahn, the Deutsche Bahn that also operates the S-Bahn, the Münchner Verkehrsgesellschaft that operates the U-Bahn, tramway and city buses, together with multiple operators of regional trains and buses.

We (Queensland, Australia) have 50 cent fares at the minute - any public transport, no matter the distance / zone / etc is a flate rate of $0.50AUD. I assume any private interests are being compensated with tax dollars but at least it makes public transport simple and affordable.

There was recently a change from a Labor government (centrist?) to a Liberal government (right / conservative) so I suspect the 50c fares will be removed at some point, though they did make it permanent as part of an election promise. "Permanent" is a pretty flexible term from a politician though.

I am not educated in public transport logistics, but why do they make ticket prices so obnoxiously difficult?

It's seemingly a worldwide issue so there just be a reason.

.... Which I assume is "money".

I'm sure Android (well, Samsung anyway) had this years ago... I remember it on my i7500 back in the 1.5 days.

I wonder when it went missing....

It's been my daily client for probably 20 years now. My IMAP email account is around 80GB and it has no issues with that whatsoever.

Never understood how people use Outlook. It's so obnoxious and slow by comparison. To obsessed with a "modern UI" or whatever I guess.

Quick filter is amazing, as is instantly archiving to year/month subdirectories.

I really liked George Clooney as Batman.

But I also liked Pierce Brosnan as James Bond so I'm probably wrong.

I've run Nextcloud since OwnCloud was the only option, with zero issues on any setup - be it direct, via snap, or via docker.

(EDIT: Out of interest I looked up the first subdomain I can remember using - it sent my username the login details in February 2015 so that's over a decade now!).

On a cheap VPS, a dedicated box, and now self hosted since I finally have a decent enough connection to support it. Ran out of storage on the VPS, then the 4TB dedicated box, now on 120TB self hosted (Nextcloud only using around 6TB mind you). CPU and RAM were never an issue.

Mostly documents (PDF, ODS, ODT), photos and videos from jobs, and some people (myself included) use the storage to back up their phone gallery.

I use shared and private folders, shared and private calendars, and shared and private contact lists on Android, iOS, and PCs (Windows and Linux). I have a public upload directory for customers to send us files and often share files directly using expiring read only links.

It's easy and it works, no idea wtf people are doing to have so much drama with it.

I've got 512GB of RAM in my server, and 128GB of RAM on my desktop cause you can never have too much.

People who care about the environment should probably be breeding this things on a large scale and releasing them in heavily populated areas.

I'm not even a member of lemm.ee and was aware of it closing today^*^

Upvote: helpful information, handy tips that are those little nuggets of gold you mine comments sections hoping to find, actually witty comments instead of oft-repeated Reddit style puns, people who actually put some effort in to their post. Basically: stuff I'd want to see if I stumbled on this thread from a Google search in the future.

Downvote: comments complaining about downvotes, any reference to "tankie" or any other perceived and dismissive stereotype, users who complain about being picked on especially by mods (and usually back it up with some tinfoil fanfic about how they've been tracked by Them), Reddit-isms that were overused there and never worth using here, people who don't source their "fact" especially when accompanied by a comment like "it's easy to find this fact". If it's that easy, you do it.
