Well, in some European countries you could load your car while at work or grocery shopping.
Depending in your commute this could just be enough.
Anyhow: the prices and (country-specific) loading network might be show stopper. Many other things are just habit and/or subjective convenience.

Sorry for the late reply.
I feel your question is a quiet country and living situation specific.
Here in Germany the guideline says to store 2 Liters (0,53 Gallons) per person per day and to have a stock of 10 days.
Having this said, our country is smaller, ways are shorter.. supply chains easier to establish.
You could talke your problem by a ) have some canned water stored as the guidelines say, b ) get informed about water sanitation with filters and chemicals and prep these items.
Without owning some property, having enough storing room and for example a well, you won't be able to be really independent.
So my best advice is you prepare to bridge the time until supply is up again (may it be logistics or pipe), or until you can move to a different unaffected location.

I would chill and not call it a scam per se. I believe the two devs tried to built a honest business and something went sideways.
It is not as if about 1500 subscriptions buy you a yacht and a sunset in a southern country.

Thunder is made with flutter. When I realized it, it went straight to the bin.
I prefer native over react native over flutter. But to be honest: they all do look alike in many cases. Not much setting them apart (design-wise) 😅.

Took a look at Avelon, and even bought lifetime. Had to refund it, because dev isn’t reacting since 4 month 😂
Currently I am using voyager, which is okay-ish. There is also arctic which is a native App for a change.
A nice overview if drought areas in Europe.

I suppose such complaints are more hefty If more people raise them: http://reportaproblem.apple.com/

I am quite relaxed: 35 bucks for a lifetime update of an App is still quite cheap and I spent more for worse 😅
That they allegedly sold 1.000+ licenses without communicating their downfall is what lead me to involve Apple Support for a complaint.
Now that http://wearecocoon.co.uk is officially out of business (subpages are still working) did anybody try to get a refund in the App Store? **Edit** I just opened a fraud case with Apple support: http://reportaproblem.apple.com/

Idk. The devs run a business and still advertise with bean. If it is really abandoned instead of just low prioritized or idling they would start a coverup...in the end reputation sells.
The “likely” in the heading needs to be emphasized as we cannot say with certainty what will happen…
I would also not recommend anybody to subscribe or renew until there was a sign of life.

Well, the App basically works and there have been updates. Also — come time — there will be further updates in the future.
What would be the basis for apple to grant a refund?

Maybe an opening. You look like a nice fella. Maybe you want to be a community manager 😂 Be prepared for some pitchforks 🧐

I'm 100 % with you on that. Health comes above all else.
But his mate, who is also running the business, could just leave a message of absence or so. With the pre-course this would honestly be enough - at least for me.

Yea, I read you the other day commenting a post. Yet I thought I would love to bring this upfront to devs attention and provide some simple ideas on how to communicate… ehm.. more 😂
Hey Steve, its been a while since your last occurrence, when you and your buddy re-assured your commitment and explained some time of absence: fine with the most of us. But since then: silence. Some of your early customers already moved on and wrote off their invest. Could you please step the game up a little and start managing your community and maybe our expectations? For example you could share a rough roadmap, just so we know, that you are still on it and your community issues were heard? Or take half an hour once a week, biweekly or monthly to communicate your progress and what you are up to? Best wishes a early stage customer that already resorts to other clients
Just for the sake of communication and keeping this sub relevant: how are you situated (rural/city/flat/house) and what are your skills and preps to e.g. deal with harsh weather, a short-term cut off of energy and heating or cold and ugly weather on the trail with your BOB.

I actually enjoy the Anker bolder LC90 torch and for general purpose a set of two LC40 as well as a no name mini torch as EDC.
With everyone running LEDs it is only the case and the features and use case that sets them all apart.
For headlights I went with three different Petzl torches (ACTIK, TIKKA) and am totally satisfied with the quality and feature set (one in the BOB, one as daily driver, one for my partner). Others like to go with ledlenser. In regard to regular torches olight is celebrated by the tactical community.
It comes down to this: how much are you willing to spend on this subject. I would go with products that are ranged in the realm of reasonable pricing.

With black week and some headlessness I bought my second Sawyer Mini on eBay. I hoped for a sellout, but when I received shipping information from China and was not able to cancel the order, I already knew whats going down 😂. Anyhow, I received a cheeky counterfeit and am now talking to Sawyer and eBay. I'm not worried about the money, it is more like these filters can be life threatening and should be pulled from market.
Hi, I just saw that tags containing a slash are not recognized as flair tag ( https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/post/2118160 ) `[does not/work]` This seems to break the parser, but I cannot imagine how.

Hi folks, did you uncheck, that your AppStore builds should be available on macOS? Back in the early days, I installed an test flight build (1.0.1) on my mac. Now I wanted to check back and see, if there is any of improvements in regards to macOS. I can't find bean in the macOS AppStore (with the iOS/iPadOS filter) 😞, so I suppose you deactivated it on purpose?
Hi, I simulated to buy the pro version in TestFlight. When I installed the AppStore version my pro status was not reset properly. Edit: This is how I found out, not part if the problem: I recognized this, when I installed the App on the iPad and tried to restore the subscription: there was none.

Hi, sitting in a bigger City in the center of Europe I realised, that I have the short term problem covered, but no real plan for long term inconveniences. To be clear, in my opinion this is tailored to the EU as the USA has a vaster landscape, and a different infrastructure in regards to power and food delivery. The point is, that almost all European countries can be traversed in one day, so in case of regional events help and relief could be there faster. ## Bug in I have in accordance with the [Federal Office of Civil Protection and Disaster Assistance](https://www.bbk.bund.de/EN/Home/home_node.html) goods to stay self sufficient for about a week, maybe more. Because of a hiking and camping hobby, I have everything to deal with colder weather. So, I have some gear and skills which can be put to use. ## Bug out Hopefully seeing the signs early enough, I plan to leave town when everyone goes mad. I plan to head towards family and friends, which have houses and are situated more rural. I have one bag packed which would help me to make the way by bike or by foot. But actually I hope to have a car until then, or that the trains are still going. Anyhow: I would make my way out with a dedicated place to go and would stay there **until I can come back**. But what If there is nothing to come back, too? I mean, if something is fundamentally changing the world or my country as it is? Would it be okay to stay with said friends and family and to build up a community that watches after each other? I have certainly no clue but with this densely populated European countries the many times dreamed up living in the backcountry is no real option -- simply because there is not enough backcountry to provide for all the people. What is your take?
I am about to print and laminate DIN A6 cheat sheets that go into my BOB. What would you add to the essentials (in Germany/Europe)? E.g. - Maps of ROIs - Basics for landnav - Fire setups (warmth vs cooking, which wood) - Radio frequencies (and their usage)

Hi my super productive overlords (no joke, u all got my utmost respect), thanks for the latest updates of memmy. The new sidebar sits well with memmy, and you can see, that the UI gets more polished. I had the iOS version installed on my mac from the getgo.. I was just curious what catalyst does to the App. The recent updates made it even more useable — by accident I suppose. Do you have the **long-term** goal of making a apple [multiplatform App](https://developer.apple.com/documentation/xcode/configuring-a-multiplatform-app-target) targeting iOS/iPadOS/macOS ? Also the App did not update via AppStore. Had to uninstall and reinstall it? I mean otherwise there are upcoming options like leomard I could settle with, but I really love the way memmy looks, feels and behaves. Best wishes
Hi, I did not fall for it, yet, but the "edit" (community info button) and the links "leave mod team" are pretty close to each other. Best wishes, a9987dcd7a

A quick reminder to check your sources of information, and a big disclaimer for an *incoming rant* A friend of mine just came along with a youtube video talking 2023 power management in Germany and the video was far beyond conspiracy and resonated too heavily. A key competency should be to check sources for relevance by questioning the presentation style: - Wording preset to inflict fear and insecurity - Wording preset to stimulate a conflict (we against the others) - Author profits, e.g. by promoting his store/hardware - Author evades naming further sources - Author use portions of statistic / single sources to "proof" his point If all that checks, oh boy. Maybe the source is not as independent, philanthropic or enlightened as you thought it would be. Especially the point with the sources is something I come along in many discussions lately...
