@briankrebs I completely forgot this is actually a thing, because in the EU net neutrality regulations disallow this and mandate that your internet access must not be treated different depending on which device you use for accessing your data plan.

I sincerely hope that the US might get some sensible net neutrality regulations as well so folks don't need to deal with this.

@jwildeboer How's the Linux driver support though? That's one of the few traits of HP printers. Hplip is FLOSS works well, and is kept up to date.

When trying to run an old Brother printer I recall only finding proprietary 32bit drivers for it. Has that improved by now?

Job-search follow up: I'd like to thank all of you who spread the word, I received quite a lot pretty interesting offers and hints.

I now have made my decision for one of them, making the immediate search for new opportunities less relevant in the next time.

The recording of my talk at #ActivityPubConf on Hashtag Federation is now online.

Dear IT crowd who works from home and additionally does some side projects in their spare time:

How do you separate work on jour day job from *fun* spare time projects? Do you have separate desks or do you only do hobby coding on the sofa? Or does everything happen at the same desk with the danger of blending in with each other?

@Gargron Is there any good one? :O
I only found acceptable vegan fresh cheese (Oatly), all other stuff was rather underwhelming.
"Pizzaschmelz" does everything but melt for example.

Only exception: Cashew camembert, but that costs an arm *and* a leg.

So keep your suggestions coming. 🤤 🥺
