With how often night trains are delayed due to their low priority there should be an alarm clock that keeps track of your train's delay status and wakes you up at a predetermined offset relative to your actual arrival time rather than the scheduled one.

If you're interested in contributing to #postmarketOS but don't know what to do, #pmbootstrap currently has some missing pieces w.r.t. type hinting. In particular adding `disallow_any_generics = true` under `[tool.mypy]` in pyproject.toml and then running `mypy .` reveals many places where types […]

First time navigating with #postmarketOS on the #PinePhone using #PureMaps today. First impressions weren't very good as navigation kept failing due to that my origin was set to somewhere the phone couldn't navigate from and it was a bit non-obvious how to fix this. Once that was fixed the rest […]

W.r.t. #accessibility of #postmarketOS, I'm thinking maybe we should have some sort of flashing lights warning for the #PinePhone given that—at least on my device—the panel sometimes starts flashing rapidly on startup? Of course this is a bug that should be fixed but perhaps it would be good to […]

What is Deutsche Bahn warning about. Nothing shows if I hover over it. We are not delayed so you can't slack off when getting off the train?

So far I'm enjoying the new #Snälltåget day train to Hamburg. Much better than the decrepit DB & DSB EuroCity I've taken before, nicer carriages and most crucially the staff doesn't act like they have joint custody over a child they hate. Good food too!
