@Hamiller In Chișinău I had once to order a meal using Google Translate as nobody spoke English and I neither spoke Romanian nor Russian ;-).

@Hamiller Sorry, wrong thread.

Feedly won't load anything here. I get only an error message from CloudFlare:

This page (feedly.com/) is currently offline. However, because the site uses Cloudflare's Always Online™ technology you can continue to surf a snapshot of the site. We will keep checking in the background and, as soon as the site comes back, you will automatically be served the live version. Always Online™ is powered by Cloudflare.

@Hamiller

a) My posts don't turn up in the streams of my followers.

b) Posts of people I'm following are not turning up in my stream.

Google seems to be doing a rollback at the moment. Situation has been improving for the last 30min.

On another note. Beside G+ also feedly.com is having problems today.

@encarsia @hennejg @beandev No hurry ;-). I guess the problem will stay with us till tomorrow. I sincerely doubt they are fixing G+ on weekends any longer....

@beandev @encarsia @frari @cynix Can you please check:

a) Do you see my last postings in your home stream?

b) Do you see more postings from me, when you go directly on my account in G+?

@cynix @hennejg I see the first one too... But that are too few anyway...

@cynix @hennejg On the web. I now have 1 post newer than 7 hours :-(.

As @hennejg is pointing out and I noticed too: We don't see any post on G+ newer than about 7 hours.

My own post from about 1h ago also already disappeared from my own stream.

@dredmorbius The graph from CircleCount does not take into account that a lot of users were force to the new UI earlier than depicted (e.g. GSuite users like me).

And it is not just because I do not like the new UI, it is plainly impossible with the new UI to keep my engagement on the previous level. The new UI has cut my throughput by a factor of 3-4.

Is it just me or is there an increasing trend of Amazon sellers to beg for reviews?

*Internet of Shit*

You thought the /Juicero/ was the most ridiculous /Internet of Shit/ thingy? Think again, after you've watched this video about the Wi-Fi enabled wine bottle:

@weberc2 I do it mostly "because I can" too. But I am terribly ambitious and don't deal well with such setbacks ;-).

Home Automation should be called Home Manualisation :-(.

For every 10min you save through the Automation part, you have to invest 1 hour to coax some part into working again....

Today the controlling unit informed me, that 3 of my actuators require a firmware update. 2/3 updated without problem, the third one fell into some kind of "safe mode" (bootloader) and it took quite some googling and experimenting to get it working again.

@frari Little surprise, but depressing nonetheless

Is there a way to retrieve an (id) index of my uploaded media files?
