  • I wouldn’t say its on the lower end. We have the rightmost lane which is almost entirely occupied by trucks which are not allowed to drive faster than 90km/h. On roads with more than 2 lanes the left most is used for anything between 130-200 I’d say. If you are using that lane and see someone faster coming up behind you you get out of the way. If that’s not possible, well they’ll just have to brake won’t they.

    The highways are mostly straight as well in germany so curves aren’t really an issue




  • My solution is far from ideal but it works for me.

    I have a Chromecast connected to my TV which outputs to my stereo system. Power to TV and stereo are controlled via smart plugs that I can quickly toggle when I want to stream music.

    The good thing: It works.

    The bad things:

    • You have to connect navidrome to symfonium using the IP address and not a hostname when using a basic chromecast since that one has a hardcoded dns server. The Chromecast with google TV allows setting a dns server yourself but you loose software volume control through your phone.
    • No volume control except directly on the stereo system. This wasn’t an issue with the basic chromecast but it is now with the better one…
    • For some reason some songs crash the casting to the chromecast. Again this wasn’t an issue on the cheap Chromecast for some stupid reason

    Depends for me. In my casual day to day I don’t but when I had a lot of appointments to meet I find it quicker to check the time on my wrist than bu fumbling for my smartphone in my pocket, something that is probably even more true for women if they store their phone in a small bag due to lack of pockets.

    Also, sometimes I like leaving my phone at home because I have unfortunately developed the tendency to give it a short glance whenever I have downtime. If I still need to know the time I can still wear a wristwatch.

    My first thought was “yes”, my second thought was “actually, maybe not?” and my third thought was reading the word clockwise in another comment which would need to be replaced with another word to indicate direction around an axis and its opposite
