Especially in Europe with exorbitant electricity prices, it’s perfectly normal. The prices just went from like 4 cents per kWh to 40 or even 70 last winter. That made everyone count kWhours really attentively. Now the prices have gone down - in some cases a lot, but the reflex to check prices is still there. A lot of us now have stock-bound contracts, so whatever the current rate for electricity is what we are paying.

That means we all have apps (mine is on my Apple Watch) and whenever the stock price is low we start our saunas, washing machines, ac:s etc. Currently the price is 4 cents per kWh and since the price is determined 24 hours in advance, I can see that the whole day will have similarly cheap electricity.

I knew there was a reason I didn’t buy Diablo IV yet.

“I didn’t need tickets” is the right answer.

Meanwhile, a lot of other apps have “not affiliated with Instagram” as a disclaimer as their first line of the description. I was wondering if Apple requires it or even automated it somehow. Screenshot

God for you! When someone only takes energy from you and never gives it, you’re usually better off without them. Hope the future is brighter.

So I wanted to read Meditations and I’m looking for the best edition / translation to start with. I’ve usually been the person to try to find the free version or the $0.49 edition. I’ve read a lot of people recommend the ~$10 edition by Gregory Hays. Would you say it’s that much better that for a first time reader it would make sense to get it? Money isn’t an issue, but I have this thing about wanting to verify quality before shelling out. I have the project Gutenberg version of course, but it feels like there probably could exist a better laid out edition.

I have pro, but not ultra. Haven’t been able to unlock my purchase since I got my new iPad. Maybe that’s why I’m not getting the pop up now.
