Found out today that we’re paying more than the current equivalent of our internet/TV plan while getting half the download speed. Called them and they said we can switch but have to pay X amount. Dividing it by the remaining duration of our plan revealed that it wasn’t as great of a deal. So I said fuck it and went with the next higher tier. Up from 125mb/s down / 12.5mb/s up, for ~9€ more per month.

That wanker yesterday that was supposed to deal with the new internet/tv plan only initiated the shipping of the new tv box but nothing else. No wonder the new tv box doesn’t install and the internet speeds are still the same…idiot.

But I made a spontaneous purchase after I returned the old tv box to the store. Wanted this 10 years ago but always pushed it off thinking “next time I’ll buy it” until it suddenly wasn’t available anywhere. Got it even a bit cheaper than on Amazon and without possible shipping damage (plus it’s FSK18 so Amazon would charge for shipping).

At a linux conference in town and got this cute little guy :smiley:

Acquired a 1U server chassis a couple of days ago. This is it with my duel core Celeron inside™. My plan is to use it as a backup server with NixOS

Also 100% can’t use those fans unless I want to annoy everyone in the house XD

Not my picture, but I ordered the first 4 books of the Diablo novels in German + The Book of Cain (paperback) in English cause the German version (as well as of the Sin War trilogy) is out of print. I grew up playing Diablo2 + Lord of Destruction and Diablo 3 in German and the localization team and voice actors did a good job. When I’m already used to the German names etc. I’m usually not keen on switching languages unless it offers an advantage and quality improvement.


Also original replacement earpads for my HD 598 SR from Sennheiser.

Groceries…the unhealthy kind. That’s what I get when I watch Himoto Umaru-chan before going out shopping.

2x 2-packs frozen pizza
2x Kelly’s Riffles ‘It’s Big Man’ Cayenne
1x Lorenz Monster Munch Big Pack
1x Jack Link’s Beef Jerky (Sweet & Hot) only cause it was marked down and I had a -25% coupon for all snacks
1x Chocolate covered raisins
1x Napolitaner wafers
3x cans of Sprite
1x bottle Rauch Black Tea Lemon-Ginger

That should be enough splurging on unhealthy stuff for a while. Even more so cause I’ll probably gonna get new glasses this year which will bite 250-350€ off my bank account. Seeing is expensive, yet there’s so much shit I don’t want/need to see.
And in October I’ll get a new dumbphone for my grandma cause Nokia is releasing an outdoor phone (Tough 800). Her Samsung has seen better days.
