Hotels are a lousy option for me and my family with small kids. We need an option where we can cook, play and be a family. I grew up using Intervac, which is a homeexchange service, where families from Germany, Austria, France etc lived in our house, whilst we lived in theirs. Now we do the same, but also need places to stay when we are driving down to the house where we are going to live.

Renting out your apt or house whilst you are on vacation is not eating up the cities, but speculating in it like many are doing with AirBnB, should be regulated/illegal.

Well, in Norway we have a cartel/triopoly which is not good. Lidl tried to establish here, but were quickly squeezed out of competition.

Proton, but I don’t think they can justify their monthly price for «premium» features.

Erdogan is afraid of competition, or how we call it in Europe: democracy

So cleaning, refill food and water once a week? And the 6 days left you only pick up eggs?

How much work is it? If there’s a war or anything, getting chickens is on the top of my list!

Downloaded and will try komoot. Thank you

 

I use Strava mainly for running, but also it has a decent tracking ability for my e-bike rides. Any good non-american alternatives?

Here are some I really enjoy, which I also use to fall asleep to.

  • Fall of civilizations - great history show
  • Sweet Bobby - Weird and fascinating story
  • The Spy Who - Awesome storytelling about different spystories from around the world
  • It could happen here - Podcast that tells how a second american civil war could happen
  • Decoding the gurus - decoding weirdos like musk, jordan peterson and other scammers

I really never did, not a well functioning at least. They've practiced voter repression for decades, and then they had fun testing how low they could go after 9/11, doing a lot of unlawful shit, going after citizens who spoke out against their policies and wars.

I’ll check it out, thank you 🙏

Or collaborate with server providers for a more seamless product? I’d consider paying for that, but many cloud services are already offering this in some kind

 

I’m having issues with Google takeout, it messes up the file names and thus the order of the photos.

Any tips?

 

Homeexchange.com is a popular home-swapping site, where you only pay a yearly fee of around 200€. You can do a simultanously swap, or earn points by letting others use your home when you're away. You can then use those points to stay anywhere in the world.

Do note that Homeexchange has dual headquarters, both in the US and in France, but has a huge membership base in Europe

As opposed to AirBnB, Homeexchange is more:

  • cost-effective, you only pay the membership-fee
  • sustainable (it's not speculative like people buying property just for renting out)
  • better traveling experience, when living in residential areas instead of a touristy place.
  • It offers you a sense of community, respect and connections across borders.
