Feature suggestion: cookbook

I'm really liking how the game is taking shape!
The biggest friction point I currently have, is that I really can't remember what potions the factions usually want.
So I often end up with loads of random potion, that only the merchants buy.

I therefore suggest a cookbook, which holds the last X potion requests you encountered,, either total X last potions or by faction. This could also be tied in with the guild halls, so that upgrading them would improve cookbook space, accuracy or something like that.

Ideally, selecting one of the recipe would then pin it to the brewing interface, just how it currently works with NPCs.

Nordwolle - German wool, from endangered German sheep, produced 100% in Germany

I just discovered Nordwolle thanks to "Lage der Nation" (https://chaos.social/@lagedernation) ! Production is only on-demand to avoid over-production, so it might take several weeks before your order arrives.

They are situated in north-east Germany, where I lived as kid for a long time, which is a region struggling with infrastructure and far-right tendencies.

Nordwolle is a light house of compassion and democratic values in the area! They predominantly employ refugees, make sure they earn a livable wage (16€/h + bonuses), and help with all the bureaucratic nonsense.

Shop like you give a damn - market place for (mainly) ethical fashion, often made in Europe

I came across the website a few days ago.
It is a curated market place of brands that fullfil self-defined ethics and sustainability criteria.
The website owners are Dutch as far as I can tell, and many brands are European, with often made in Europe products.
Not everything is made in Europe, but they are pretty transparent about it.

Looking for laptop repair shop

I'm looking for a laptop repair shop to switch the CPU cooling on my Framework.
There are guides available online, I just lack the confidence to do it myself.
I also tried reaching out to the hackerspace in Aarhus N via email, but no response so far. I'd prefer something that can do it the same day (I have all the tools and the replacement PTM).

Looking for glass food storage containers made in Europe

I'm currently looking for glass food storage containers (freezer safe, oven safe as a bonus).

My search so far has only turned up Pyrex Europe, which is an American company but produces exclusively in France.

Other brands I've checked:

  • Orthex: imports their glassware from abroad, and does not produce it in Sweden/Finland (confirmed via email, still waiting on the actual country) Edit: confirmed made in China by their support.
  • Glasslock: offices and warehouses in Germany, production in South Korea
  • Luminarc: French company, produced in UAE
  • Duralex: French company, made in France. Does not deliver outside of France (EU website is "under construction"). I reached out about the broken website.
  • IKEA 365: Swedish company, glass made in different countries (confirmed France, Czech Republic). Lids made in China.
  • Weck: German company, probably made in Germany. Not ideal shapes, and while theoretically freezer proof, not meant for that.
  • Frigoverre by Bormilio Luigi: comment said produced in Europe and China, their own website does not show a production site outside of Europe. No direct sales from their website, no local retailer for me.
  • vilde.pl seems to produce in Poland, but not what I am looking for
  • Kuhn Rikon produces in Switzerland, but no delivery for me
  • Status Innovation seems to produce in Slovenia

So I'd appreciate any tips and I will update the list with what I find.

Edit: Seems like Duralex fits the criteria but does not deliver outside of France. Please keep additional suggestions coming!

Current top list:

  • Duralex if the EU website would work
  • Frigoverre if there would be direct sales or a local retailer
  • Kuhn Rikon if they would deliver to me
  • Status Innovation seems to produce in Slovenia
  • IKEA 365 despite the Chinese lid
  • Weck, because the shape is just not practical for me and they do go beyond 500 ml.
  • Pyrex Europe, made in France, but US company.

Looking for European earbud producer with open-ear design

I'm currently looking to replace my in-ears (which are slowly dying) and I have settled on the open-ear form factor. Unfortunately open-ears are not very common, so I've had trouble finding many European options. I'd settle for a European company, because produced in Europe is even more difficult to find.

What I found so far:

  • Nothing Open Ear (UK, produced in China)
  • Suunto Aqua/Wing/Sonic (Finland, probably produced in China apparently completely Chinese now
  • Teufel Airy Open TWS (Germany, probably produced in China)
  • Beyerdynamic Veerio 200 (Germany, 85% of all Beyerdynamic products produced in Germany)

Please do not confuse open-back (full-size over-ear) and open-ear (small form factor).

European brands I have checked which do not have open-ears:

  • Steelseries
  • Bang & Olufsen
  • Austrian Audio
  • Sennheiser
  • Meze
  • Fairphone
  • Valco
  • Fresh 'n Rebel
  • Jabra

Brands with open-ears but not European:

  • Shokz
  • Bose
  • JBL
  • Suunto (used to be Finnish, now 100% Chinese)

Feuerwear - Products from upcycled firehose made in Germany & Serbia

cross-posted from: https://feddit.org/post/10190479

Feuerwear makes a series of bags and backpacks out of old firehose. I got one of their laptop bags since last year and I absolutely love it! They also offer a repair service and give a 3-year warranty on their products.

As far as I can tell from their website, some steps of the production are done in Germany and some (mostly sewing) is done in Serbia.

Referreral code warning
I got a code that gives a 10€ reduction for new customers (and gives me the same if it's used). I'm not sure if the code can be used repeatedly, so no guarantee that it works.
