Ready to review that.

Still waiting to see real estate prices falling, most corporate owner are so full of money that they prefer keep something empty than renting or selling it and private owners from the boomer generation will pass it to their heir as much as possible, the few that sell is still not enough to absorb the demand. At least in my region and most or my country, shops are closing to leave empty space because owner keep rising rent and boomer houses are getting off the market by promoter who over bid to flip a "worthless" but good quality house on a "2M$ land" into 5 or 6M$ of appartements or houses of the cheapest quality. Hopefully this will slow down before I get in.

IP code is just a way to test device, reality is other. I took part in such tests in the past (not for electronic but still), I can even tell that some results might be subjective, like the quantity of dust inside that is not impacting the good functioning of the device. Usually a simple functionality test for a few minutes to a few hours after the test would make it valid. Another point for smartphone that are dust/waterproof, is that it impact a lot the reparability of the device. The more it's sealed, the harder it is to open it to change the battery or anything else.

I'm still too young in my mind, then my body reminded me of my physical age the next day(s).

Do we ? I have been a big fan of Lightning for at least 3 years, running node, lnbits, btpay server, testing many wallets but core issues are still there : dominance of custodial solutions, difficult on boarding for non-custodial solutions, third party dependancy for Lightning Address, failed payements, pending payements that we are not sure if failed until several minutes (worst than confirmed failed, I paid twice due to a first failed/pending payement that confirmed after 10min), payements type partially supported depending on wallet or node type : invoice, bolt11, bolt12, Lightning Address, zap. Wallet connection is either reckless (RPC) or unstable (NWC that fail half of the time), CLN has advantage for Rune/CLNrest (what a messy name) but beside Zeus and LNbits is not really supported (would be perfect for nostr client wallet connection). I'm sure you can find more issue to solve. So yeah a lot of technical improvement happen but few resulted in a big UX improvement, sometimes it's even making it worst. And I speak as a Product Manager that try most solutions available and help onboarding people at meetups, newbie are still having a hard time. Onchain is still better beside the long confirmation time.

No Nintendo, I don't want the Joy Cons Splatoon I want the Pro Controller 2 Splatoon. And even these Joycons are boring, just a color accent, so lazy. Damn I miss the themed Wiimote, Mario, Luigi, Peach,... these were just money printing I never understood why they skip these on Switch already.

Can we suggest news feed ? Is it English only ?

Never. Brave as backup if something is broken with Firefox (and its forks), but it happens like once per month or less.

See how many steps they are to send sats ? Isn't there a better UX possible ? Like Zeus could be connected to the nostr client in thr background and the button would pay the noffer if available or zap to Lightning Address as fallback automatically.

Gameboy color, N64, iMac, maybe the DualShock controller were official release. The wiimote and PSP I'm not sure. But I agree, in general tech are lacking nice color options, not a fan of Apple anymore but at least they dare to release a full orange high hand smartphone, just bad it's the only bright color option. >90% of the tech is in a miserable black /gray/white colors only. Sad.

In Switzerland the largest cinema theater chain that acquired a quasi monopoly by buying small theater and closing them down, started charging a fee for each movie booking transactions, online by card, in theater by card or cash, it's 1 CHF (a bit more than 1 USD) per booking. It's illegal in Switzerland and they know it. A claim has been opened but the maximum fine for such violation is just a few hundreds thousand Swiss franc while it's estimated they charged already more than a millions from this fee, probably multimillions by the time court settle everything. Thank you government for protecting us, glad we pay tax for such service.

From experience the longest part is to dig the ground to pour the concrete to ancker the thing. And don't skip this as kids can be rough on it when growing up and it cannot stand safely without proper ankers.

They are always like if the credit card number is the worst that can be stolen, but cards are ready to block and replace while your name and home address is hard to change.

It's 128bytes of data but 2 or 3 were not usable as I remember. I could not for lightning:LNURLxxxx in full but I could for the raw LNURL so it's not opening automatically in a wallet but if you can read it and know what it is, you can past the LNURLw in your Lightning wallet. I didn't try to write 12 words of a mnemonic phrase, maybe it could works 12x4 is much lower than 128bytes even with space, but it would again not opening directly in a wallet.

Every time I bring shit to sell for sats at meetups, I end up giving it for free... Not sure why people are so averse to pay you a hundred sats for a sticker or 2–3ksats for a pins but they would gladly take it if it's free.

Households with kids and both parents working full-time is slowing down ? It's more like we are pushed into it while it should be norm to have one parent working full and the other taking car of the family. This latter is slowing down for sure. You mean we are more heading to 80/40 or 70/50, to have more than one income but both at reduced rate ? It's nice when both have similar income but when one earn twice more, 100/0 must shift to 80/60 or 80/80 to really increase the income and stay competitive (mostly on terms of housing affordability). Which is super sad. Working 80% is slavery, you get 20% income but but you produce almost as much as 100% while not having much improvement on your life. Ideal workload should be around 60% with 75-80% of a full time income. Efficiency would be close to the same from the employees if not more as their private life would br greatly improved and with enough free time for himself and to give back to society in another way.
