Brace yourself for repeated, senseless array manipulation. Don’t let it get to you. Being personable and seeking understanding when you are confused are the two most important things.

Sometimes. Maybe even often. I’m not so sure about usually.

I live in a city center in Norway. Grocery stores surround me. Several within a few blocks. Maybe moving soon to a rural area where the closest will probably be 10 minutes via bus. But still not too shabby.

True, we stack old technologies on top of older technologies, and somewhere at the bottom, there is z/OS with COBOL running. A young person right now learning COBOL has a secure future with big paychecks.

Tangential, but I just learned of a Quooker yesterday. Guy ran boiling water straight from the tap instantly at a house I was viewing. Blew my mind.

You really nailed it here. That’s is really funny. Like Dr. Melphi.

Yes, but connotatively it is just a marker of privilege. Especially here, since what we’re talking about is immigration, not temporary work.

I went to Norway. Big recommend. That said, I refuse to call myself an expat or use the term expatriate. I am an immigrant. I think it is weird that white westerners get a special word and everybody else are filthy immigrants.

• Pinball Deluxe Reloaded: so good

Also in Norway. Can generally see my FL in one or two days. He is always on time and takes good care of me. I can also just send a message for many things. Legavakt is nearby if something major comes up. My daughter’s experience is closer to yours and she too has seen private a few times. Good to have options.

Awesome. I’ve been using Lemmy for a long time now and this is the first time I’ve gotten that feeling that Old Reddit used to have. So nice having the expert you need right when you need them.

I’m the akshually guy here, but complex numbers are the combination of a real number and an imaginary number. Agree with you, just being pedantic.

This talk by Freya Holmer on Quarternions is awesome and worth anybody’s time that like computer graphics, computer science, or just math.

Oh I’m American; I’m an immigrant here. I’m no expert on it. I’ve just lived here for several years and not witnessed that. That said, I’m probably in a bubble.

they also feel like there is no country as good as Norway and everyone must really want to be Norwegian.

I haven’t experienced that in the many years I’ve lived here. It is a humble group of people, seems to me. They also have tons of love for the other Scandinavian countries. You paint a picture of stuck up nationalists, and that’s pretty far from the truth.

Say, would you like a chocolate covered pretzel?

Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned for SEGA.

You are not alone.

I’ve traveled around the world a lot and seen many great sites. Nothing compared to the feeling of home when I first reached Scotland. I can neither describe it nor understand it, but I had an overwhelming since of home.

Sorry. I was unclear. I just meant one would expect it to burn much as another textile of a similar blend. So more wool, less fire; more cotton, more fire.
