Also ich hab neulich noch drei Stück für einen Einkauf bei Burger King eingelöst. Einfach probieren, viele Läden kümmert die Begrenzung anscheinend nicht

That hasn’t been true for years. I’m sick of people pretending that it’s somehow “natural” for TVs to be dumb, and blaming others for wanting their devices to do more for them and be more convenient. A TV that can run apps isn’t the problem. A TV that can access the Internet isn’t the problem. Even a TV that stays connected in standby mode is not inherently a problem. The problem is surveillance capitalism and that most of the world is unwilling to legislate and enforce proper consumer protections.

Sure, the article could’ve mentioned that not connecting your TV might(!) stop it. But framing it like this obvious and trivial solution that everyone can “just” do and saying that nobody should even want those features in the first place is just out of touch and borders on victim blaming.

Yup that’s it, you were quicker than me, thanks!

Oh dang you’re right, read your comment too quickly and mixed up v and w, lol

What’s the difference between /kʷ/ and /kw/ though? Never seen that first notation

It’s somewhere in the settings on the web interface, you can set up SMTP credentials for any of the email addresses you’ve set up in Proton there. Maybe you’ll find it on your own already, but I could look it up exactly once I’m on the PC later

That’s wrong, you can set up sending via SMTP pretty easily. And they also have an IMAP bridge app to access your mailbox through other clients like Thunderbird.

Italian does have qu which is pronounced /kw/

Same in German actually no

I signed up for the smaller version as well. Judging from the tracker website, you indeed had a slightly better change for that one than for the 1 TB:

Although that doesn’t tell us anything about how limited it was, since it also depends on how many ordered that version in the first place

Aw, that sucks. What country is that?

I only stumbled over these sites after I got put on the waitlist, if I had gotten on the reservation list I probably wouldn’t have looked around as much. Assuming I’m not special, that would mean there’s some bias towards waitlisted people. But I might be wrong about that, sure

That’s pretty standard to be honest. Every individual email takes some time to send since you need to communicate to external servers. Even if you don’t deliberately group them into batches for better monitoring and load spreading, that’s just gonna take a while to churn through

Inevitable. Fucking scalpers

If it says waitlist, then yes. If it says reservation list, you made it!

🆗

What do you mean by worst case?

As you said these sites are likely to overrepresent waitlisted people. As a fellow waitlisted person, I’m using them to get an idea of how “bad” the situation is, i.e. to curb my expectations about moving to the reservation list at some point. Waitlisted people being overrepresented will make the situation look worse than it is, meaning I’m more likely to be positively surprised than negatively.

I don’t actually mind that, as it gives a worst case estimation and it is likely to be better in reality. Better than the other way around

It doesn’t seem to be that bad, judging from the tracker sites. More like 4:3 or somethin

Ooof

That’s awesome! So jealous though
