500: maintenance mode

Greetings from the Engine Room!

Sorry, but there's really nothing to see here right now. Our server is in maintenance mode – and our little bot is trying to sort the error messages with its last bit of energy.

Whether it was a data leak, a power outage in the cluster, or just a grumpy bit – we don't know yet. But what we do know is:

The data drama escalated into a server meltdown. But don't worry: We're on it.

What now?

Everything is surely running smoothly over at our colleagues from inside digital – why not stop by!
Or you could pass the time by visiting our social media channels – for example Instagram, YouTube or TikTok. At least there are no server problems there – promised.

Thanks for your patience. Our bot is already rebooting at full speed. 🔧

Want It Wired? Apple May Release Earpods with USB-C for iPhone 15

Apple is planned to adopt USB-C on its iPhone 15. While the decision is seen to improve sustainability overall, it will undoubtedly reduce compatibility with older devices that are stuck with the old Lightning port. The good thing is that Apple will also switch to the versatile interface for its accessories, including the wired EarPods headphones, and just in time for the next iPhone.
