Still, repairability is right up there with privacy for me, so I'm quite happy with the hardware right now

At night?

We use less power at night. We generate a LOT less power at night. Because the sun is off for the most part.

Your mentality is old school. We have often more need at night than during the day for non renewable electricity right now

This is a very old school and outdated mentality.

In my part of the EU this year, we had very very many days of negative sale prices and having to curtail wind parks because just solar and wind were making up more than demand during the day. Afaik we only curtailed at night one time.

TIL this exists. Super cool.

Hvad koster det?

[–] frank@sopuli.xyz 2 points 5 days ago

A good bit harder since I'm not a native Dane. In some more years when I'm a full fledged citizen I can start in earnest, but I'll ask now at least

Fascinating. I knew about the key fob but not the little pedometer looking thing.

I wonder how it actually works, since a lot of it is integrated into apps and I don't see a spot to instead type a code. I'll have to play with it

There's a post about this on the Danish community here every few months. Afaik no one has any proper progress on it other than carrying a burner device or something

I do, but as far as I was aware my Fairphone can't run Graphene? I would love to keep using my Fairphone over buying Google's hardware at this point

What? You can't use an alternative app. It's government issued identification and required for life here.

I (and as far as I can tell, all others) can't get it to work outside of android

For me, MitID in Denmark. 100% required for society and life here, requires Google Play Services now :(

I tried e/os on my Fairphone for a bit. I think I could make it all work okay enough besides that. I should write people at the government or something I guess?

Plus they're helping continue to push EU regulations towards repairability. The premium going to that is fine by me
