  • I got one of those too. I called the customer service to get another path home because of disturbances, and they just have robot answering. The robot started halfway through the call just reading pure json at me, and then said “to get this information as a message press 1” or something. This is what I got:

    Here is your journey from undefined to undefined: BUSS 506 towards Karolinska sjukhuset 09:36 from undefined 10:18 arrived at undefined. Link to your journey.




  • It may only be possible to say so because I have not used windows in 20ish years, but I find mac to be completely horrible.

    Super slow. Even the arm ones, to switch to the workspace where my vscode windows are takes like 4 seconds, starting bash (I have gone through my bashrc like 10 times) takes several seconds. After a boot it takes minutes before everything is loaded in the settings, meaning some settings are not available directly after boot (why is the settings window modular and dynamic like that?)

    The mouse speed and accelleration just feels like I’m stuck in butter. I have made some config change outside of the settings to speed up the mouse, but I have to reboot to make them take effect is insane. Accelleration is suppose to be off, but that disgusting buttery feeling is still there. If I switch to linux it is not.

    They had an update where they broke ssh. They fucking broke ssh for like two months. How the fuck am I suppose to work on it?

    Not having a proper distinction between left and right opt/cmd/control which makes adapting keyboard layout to your personal workflow hard as shit.

    You have to like click everything and random shit grabs the window focus all the time. So many times I have switched workspace or something and it displayed it but the focus is still left on the laptop or something. Randomly you have to click on a window instead of just using a keybind to get there.














  • You are not uploading, others are downloading. The direction of traffic is the same, but the incentive is different.

    Before torrents, there were services where you just announced “there are all my files just download what you want” and some places had quotas on how much you should make available for download. People were sharing all kinds of random trash and also downloading that trash.

    A joke was – was it on like bash.org? – that you have some file you want to backup, you have to make people want to download it, so you just call it leaked_celebz_nudez.zip or something and it would be downloaded forever, even if it did not work because so much trash was shared and if could help your quota.

    So you’d have to use the strategy in that joke. Make a torrent of your stuff, just encrypted so it is trash for anyone who wants to download it, but you’d have to make the torrent content so imcredibly desireble that even if the comments and ratinfs of the torrents goes to shit, people will still be downloading it in the hope it works. What would be that desireable though, I do not know.
