Can someone please remind me of the site that allows you to check punctuality on specifc German trains? I’m wondering whether a 12 minute transfer in Mannheim is even worth thinking about. Thank you.
Yesterday was another Homebrew Website Club.
Nina showed us her newly created Instagram-Archive site using Memento Mori. She also detailed how cumbersome it is to delete one’s Instagram account. We then talked about Dark Patterns for a while.
AI has also always been a topic again. How it can for example be useful to get away from big tech and host services yourself. Jochen told us about how he does just that now. What he previously didn’t have the time for now became possible. He also uses AI to add new feature to the website of his Python Podcast.
We also talked a bit about podcasting and available apps as well as how one might get away from large music streaming services like Spotify. And we made our first money transfer using Wero (instead of Paypal).
The next HWC DUS will be on Mar. 17th.

People love the idea of the agriturismo in Italy. As explained in this blog post, “the synergy between agrobiodiversity and sustainable agritourisms, touch the grass.
There’s more to it than that, though, according to the FAO.
As explained in this blog post, “the synergy between agrobiodiversity and sustainable agritourism creates a powerful feedback loop that safeguards both biological heritage and rural livelihoods”.
