So we got to torrent our YouTube videos soon? EU is pushing for this too

Just like my refrigerator

If you live in a touristy area, those “lads” come over every holiday season to cause trouble.

ultimatum: build device-level scanning to detect “illegal images” or we’ll pass laws to force your hand.

As if Google and Apple wouldn’t be more than happy to do this, if they aren’t already.

It’s been a while for me. Are there still edk2 indexing sites left?

Another fun fact:

In Dutch, the US is called Verenigde Staten.

But, the English United States sounds like u naait het steeds and means “you keep sewing it” or “you keep fucking it”.

I tried Wayland for a day but went back to x11 (using KDE Neon) because of annoyances. Mostly input-related issues:

– I used Fusuma to remap extra mouse buttons, which doesn’t work anymore

– Touchpad scrolling is buggy and pinch to zoom barely works

– Espanso has a Wayland version but doesn’t work most of the time

– select with shift+arrow and release shift: it also releases the arrow so you have to press it again (seems small but annoys me)

And there’s problems with windows opening on the wrong screen and then completely crashing when you try to move it (under Wine with full screen at least), and some apps with weird behaviors like drag and drop not working.

It probably doesn’t count as a shower thought. Also, the list is probably all wrong, e.g. Khmer and Tamil are abugidas, not alphabets.

Don’t forget Anna’s Archive. I found most comics I was looking for lately, also non-English.

I haven’t been able to find something better than Music Folder Player.

I don’t know why it’s so hard for Android apps to just respect my folder layout and not clump all files together.

Got one once as a kid but I don’t think it was very common (Netherlands)

Try Phuket or Mallorca.

Nothing at all. We were promised a comeback but it doesn’t seem to happen anymore.

Rick Moranis maybe

Well I was glad to finally earn over 2000 euros in Czechia, a salary I never achieved in the Netherlands. I don’t know anyone who earns over 4000. Averages are nonsense.

I’m just visiting the Algarve.

Luckily I found some store that had a free open wifi network (they had a server room so still had power). There were people lining up to use payphones (interestingly they still have them here).

Otherwise, no wifi, no data, no phone network, so no information on the whole situation. Can’t pay by card. Had a bag of chips for dinner because I can’t cook. Couldn’t book accommodation or a bus. Shops used pen, paper and calculator but took only cash. People barely have cash at hand and ATMs were out too.

I don’t know what I could’ve done without money if this would have lasted even longer.

Once, our classroom (early teens) had to get changed in a large, shared changing area for a swimming pool. One of those clingy volunteering mothers walked around, pointing out where we didn’t dry wel enough, touching, “helping” boys etc. But, she had two boys of her own and “there was nothing she hadn’t seen before”. Very uncomfortable.

Somehow I don’t think it would be accepted for me to walk into little girls changing saying “don’t worry, it’s nothing I haven’t seen before”.

Same for those cleaning ladies cleaning right behind me while taking a piss in a urinal. It feels weird.

Oh well, we’re just men, right? So who cares?

In many cases, you have to disable the privacy setting (hops) to be able to download anything. Probably because it still hasn’t attracted a lot of users.

They switched from a client application to a web interface in a recent update, which I’m not a fan of (mainly because I’m blocking right click hijacking in my browser).

It’s nice to add an extra layer of security, imo, but I wouldn’t rely on it completely if you’re in one of those countries where ISPs don’t respect your privacy.

If you’ve lived through covid, you would have seen that people just don’t give a fuck about sick and old people.
