@yukiame Cockroaches.

@megfault What is your approximate latitude and time zone? Need to calibrate my astonishment.
-
@megfault If it is indeed Darmstadt in southern Germany consider me properly astonished. I hardly believe it's snowing in @lain's Berlin!

Here in our uninsulated apartment with open windows in Hong Kong, we have returned to a comfy 20 degrees C room temperature and outside the window is blue skies and sun.

Hongkongers, BRACE YOURSELVES. SUMMER. IS COMING.

@megfault @lain :-O
Is this a sight you would be able to see any given year in your town? I don't expect it is.
-
@megfault @lain Ok, so it's not super crazy to see a centimeter of snow then. It just feels weird for me to imagine snow south of Skåne. :-)
Now just waiting for the armada of Swedes snickering at Continentals when the "SNOW CHAOS" and "TRAFFIC CHAOS" headlines come in.
And after that the armada of Northern Swedes laughing at the "* CHAOS IN STOCKHOLM" headlines.

@benis I only heard about it on IRC this week!
The Fediverse is my bookmark list, I don't have a local store except my head.

@benis @jeff That one was probably from #oggcastplanet, possibly #lobsters, probably not but not entirely impossibly #picolisp. Otherwise I'm on the GS Offtopic, Lounge, Cryptid and Tech/Programming heldscalla matrix channels, #squatconf, #heropunch, #guix, #pump.io and #scuttlebutt. That's more than enough to keep me busy.
I think you are not interested to hear which Swedish-speaking Suckerberg groups I'm on.

https://dedi.jochen-hoenicke.de/queue/ is essential for basic life management these days. :-(
coinmarketcap.com
coingecko.com for rates in HKD or BTC and if you want some tickers on your start page
thelocal.se when I miss my parental home and want to find some memes to spread the Swedish hegemony.
datamost.com for my pump.io needs, but it's pretty quiet. Basically all the interesting stuff is identi.ca/avadiax and identi.ca/brainwane .
Don't know too many text-only sites actually. Would be fun to learn of more.

Summer brought its little friends. Haven't seen them for weeks, but last night I saw and retired 3 #haramböcek.
I hope a lidded rubbish bin, all food waste in plastic bags and incessant vacuuming and mopping will make sure I never have to see 80 of them again, but we will see.
I will pull out the washer machine and see if any hanky panky is going on behind there.
The paper box vacation homes worked for a few weeks on September and October, but then the few survivors had bred followers that avoided them. Then, luckily, winter came.
The dishwasher spray has improved the chase immensely. Will switch to killer spray only if it escalates to September levels.

Oh. I didn't remember it was that bad.
