She’s adding more layers to the convoluted origin of this pizza: put a Thai sauce and Swiss cheese on a German version of a Canadian pizza by a Greek immigrant who named it after a US state

You could use a different file manager. And there’s a few places I would look for files : downloads, pictures, etc, or in a folder named for the app under one of those places
It makes me feel a little better about myself seeing the New York Times communication department make a typo in a post

What shows were you watching? I can only think of the Exorcist and Psycho, but those are kind of unique falls. All the others I can think of were comedy pratfalls and definitely not fatal.

raef@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•Spain and Portugal Hit With Worst European Blackout in YearsEnglish4·3 months agoAbout a month ago, almost the whole city (northern Germany) lost power for about forty minutes.

raef@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Google won't bring new Nest Thermostats to EuropeEnglish1·3 months agoThat’s what I meant, the device is directly next to the heat source. It’s never going to be accurate. And you can tell in the way people use the two systems. In Germany, people don’t think about our check the temperature of the room or what the dial is set at, just, I’m cold, turn it up. In the US, the room is set to a specific temperature and just left alone except for day/night, home/away.
But, anyway, the comment was about how they wouldn’t work for Nest, and that’s true. You’d need a third party solution. It would be hard to sell these and then say, hey, by the way, you can’t use it until you go out and buy something from someone else and install it

raef@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Google won't bring new Nest Thermostats to EuropeEnglish81·3 months agoYes, but they are not electronic and they don’t reflect the temperature of the room like a wall thermostat does.
raef@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Google won't bring new Nest Thermostats to EuropeEnglish151·3 months agoTBF, over 15* in Germany I’ve only seen a couple of actual thermostats. The vast, vast majority use a valve on each radiator. There are electronic solutions for the radiators, but sticking a Nest on the wall is going to do nothing for someone unless the customer installs specific hardware that the Nest would have to support
