The payer couldn't care less about how much the store pays for the transaction. He or she just wants to tap with their phone, and the default here are Visa/MC cards. In addition to the transaction price not being an argument for the payer, Wero also afaik does not have as much consumer protection as (certainly some) credit cards offer. I also bet the average person doesn't understand or care about the whole political dispute either. Again, they just want to pay easily and safely.
I don't think Wero can "win" this from just the merchants side. It's got to be better for the customer's side.
A full integration with Cloudflare means it is their SSL certificate that’s presented to the visitor of your website, and all traffic is passed through them. They do read everything.
Thus it’s pointless to host in the EU if everything first has to go through a US company.
I feel this and as a German company, we have our stuff hosted in the EU. But where it becomes pointless to have the host in the EU, is when Cloudflare is a requirement. Since we expose ourselfs through their certificate, we might as well host with a US company. And I’m not aware of a EU Cloudflare competitor with similar WAF offering.
This is correct and to show what that means:
Frankfurt to Berlin with a fast ICE: 4 hours, no changes.
With regional trains only: 10-14 hours, 3-6 changes.
With a car this trip is 5 hours. No one in their right mind would ever do such a trip with regionals only, it is extremely painful. In addition, the chance that one of the connections will be missed is extremely high.
100% agree. I also do a swim 2-3 days a week and then sauna. It multiplies the mentioned effects greatly. I don’t think I could feel any better than I do after swim + sauna.
Yes that’s about right, no phone or anything, I just close my eyes. Sometimes I fall asleep.
It is very possible, that this is simply what it takes to sent my mind into a mental break.
I have tried Headspace and all that stuff and I see the benefits, it is just much easier to send your mind into relax mode after above mentioned schedule.
There also is a steam room adjacent to the sauna and from time to time I use it as well, but I feel like the heat does not penetrate as “deep”. What’s nicer is how the steam soothes the airways in comparison to a Finnish sauna.
I have been going to the sauna of the nearby gym everyday for about 2 years now, rarely skipping it.
It is honestly hard to express how much I love the effects of it and how much I attribute to it. I can not live without it anymore.
If I wake up after a bad nights sleep and feel extremely groggy, sauna fixes it.
If I am overworked to the point where my head is pulsating, sauna fixes it, and I get another 2 hours of extremely focussed work done afterwards.
Bad mood, a cold, sore muscles, even certain types of headache, a sauna can fix.
I should mention that a sauna for me includes a cold shower immediately after leaving it, as cold as the shower will go. This is the key, the shock will make all the difference. Then you lay down, at least 10 minutes.
I do 2 rounds most days, it’s about 80C, I manage between 12-15 minutes in the first sitting, then 8-10 in the second.
I can not recommend it enough, it has changed my life.
That sounds very normal, at least it’s the same for me.
Sometimes I spent a considerable amount of time brainstorming an idea or concept over and over during alone times, and then at some point it won’t return to my thoughts again, but something new replaces it. Sort of like I am “done” with that thought and my brain wants to move on.
I don’t know why that happens, but I guess I get stimulation simply from that iterative thought process. Thus your garbage collector comparison seems accurate to me.
Secretly though, I do hope to get that business idea at some point via that process. Not sure if that’s ever going to happen, but that’s okay too.
Anyone noticed, how Google Meet screen sharing on macOS is broken on a daily basis? I then always check for an update and then after a restart of chrome, it works again. Next day, it has some weird issue again.
But boy is it annoying. I wonder if it is an Apple Silicon only issue.
