That’s not entirely correct: One achievement was me donating money to the IA after this nonsense 😁

30 years ago we definitely had snow in winter. Sometimes more, sometimes less. But I remember playing in snow basically every winter as a kid. And I’m living in a very mild region of Germany. Now I’m considering all season tires (just for legal purposes) to not change wheels twice a year, since there is maybe some snow for one week in total.

Spoke with a guy this week who was born in the 30s. He said winter back then was much harder. Whole lakes or even rivers were frozen solid. I can’t imagine being able to walk to the other side of a major river…

But I’d say (at least that’s my experience) it’s not a very addictive substance. Or it depends heavily on the person.

I drink 0-5 cups a day. I like the taste and I like drinking it in some social settings. I don’t need it in the morning to get my body awake. I can just stop drinking coffee any time for longer periods of time without any issues.

Once I was working in Bavaria for about 6 weeks. We drank around 1l of beer every dinner. Returning home I wanted to drink a beer after the first dinner. This made me stop drinking alcohol for two months and since I made this experience I regularly stop consuming substances that may be addictive. I never experienced this with caffeine.

Wait until they start to orbit in formations representing company logos and serving us advertisements from space…

This is the correct answer. Don’t overthink this. Just go, have a look and that’s it. Tell everybody involved that you don’t have to proof anything if they ask.

I know people who could afford this house easily that walk around like a regular farmer. Sales people having regular contact with wealthy people know this.

Yes.

Poor fish will get very depressed when it realizes no one is going to feed him for free 😂

Nice

Well what a intelligent decision it was to bombard people with ads in OSs that were paid for.

I switched the day Microsoft clickbaited me into clicking on an ad while testing the new outlook with the paid 365 subscription I had. At this point I was having a constant stream small annoyances at least every week since Windows 7.

My host is running Linux mint now and 365 was replaced by only office (since this seemed to be the most similar and compatible office package I found). Trouble free since January. Battery lasting twice as much. Zero work lost because of unexpected update reboots 👍🏼

I’m so happy, I even bought a Steam deck to support Valve/Proton

I agree. I maintained a dyson (I think it was a V6) for a couple of years. They are generally designed so well, it literally pokes your eye where they made the materials extra thin to break earlier (for example the pipe connection mechanism and the electrical connectors)

I gave up when the main body started to break. Using a Philips now. Better in many ways but still far from perfect.

The availability of spare parts is really good though for dysons. Lot of cheap stuff on Amazon and eBay. Buying a spare battery for the Philips for example is much harder.

I agree. I would expect any service holster to at least have some kind of a mechanical lock to prevent theft or an accidental drop of a gun.

I have a cheap plastic holster that requires a button press with your index finger. You can do this while grabbing the handle and starting to pull the gun. When completely pulled out, your finger is then aligned near to the trigger for quick response times. That’s the system I expect a modern police to have. It’s really difficult to take the gun out when you’re not pulling from above from a natural position.

I know the cops in the US have a very bad reputation but this can’t be true.

I’m relaxed. IMHO this is just another trend.

In all my career I haven’t seen a single customer who was able to tell me out of the box what they need. Big part of my job is to talk to all entities to get the big picture. Gather information about Soft- and Hardware interfaces, visit places to see PHYSICAL things like sub processes or machines.

My focus may be shifted to less coding in an IDE and more of generating code with prompts to use AI as what it is: a TOOL.

I’m annoyed of this mentality of get rich quick, earn a lot of money with no work, develop software without earning the skills and experience. It’s like using libraries for every little problem you have to solve. Worst case you land in dependency/debug hell and waste much more time debugging stuff other people wrote than coding it by yourself and understanding how the things work under the hood.

I first didn’t see this face but your image made me LOL 😂😂😂

This is the right answer. Source: worked as a cashier.

• You are surprised you have to pay for stuff and need minutes to find your money? I’m surprised too that I have to hand you back some change and need just as much time.
• You have been an asshole in general? Just let me grab a fresh roll of small coins, open it an take coin after coin and put everything on the counter.
• My all time favorite: A guy came and was ready to pay the correct sum (it was like three coins). He immediately left after putting everything on the counter. I wondered why he was in such a hurry. Then I saw that he paid with a foreign coin that looked like a 2€ coin but was actually worth around 50 Cents back then. I don’t know why but I am really good in recognizing faces. So I used my superpower for my petty revenge: I waited around 3-6 months until this guy came again. He paid with a bill. When giving him his change, I grabbed that coin as the last one placed it on the counter and gave it back.

Cashiers are human beings. They are intellectually as able as everybody else. And they know all tricks from customers. So please, have some respect for people doing their jobs.
