We were moving between countries and could not bring it all. Transporting it would be the big hassle, and we dont need the like maybe some 100€ at most we could get for the stuff, so we put it up for free. Lots of people were bringing candy, store bought and even homemade, for the stuff they were getting. Very nice actually.

I have not seen them in Germany nor in Sweden

I’ve also seen these in Italy. Quite genious.

Such a pain moving from a country where it is the default to a country where it is unheard of.

I did. I just wanted to share my thoughts on this one point so others may get some inspiration to write.

Fundamental rights impacts: The non-content data retained and accessed could provide information to authorities about the private life of persons to whom these data relate and thus interfere with the fundamental rights protecting their privacy (Art. 7 of the Charter of Fundamental Rights of the European Union), their personal data (Art. 8) and their freedom of expression (Art. 11).

[—]

Where the options considered in the impact assessment should limit fundamental rights, these will be weighed against the interference with such rights, and full consideration will be given to providing adequate safeguards to ensure their necessity and proportionality for achieving the intended objective.

I absolutely hate this. Why even have fundamental rights if you are gonna be “well, it would be more convenient to not follow these rights”. If they are fundamental, treat then as such.

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.

After a day at work, forced to use mac, I just have to start my linux machine, even if I do not have anything to do on it, just to feel sane again.

Has he worked with other far right parties in Europe?

No, he just regrets posting it. In that phrasing, it is still true, meaning the lie alternative is not relevant.

I sort of used to do this with the Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy books. If you have read or listen through them already it works quite well. There are so many random stories and in depths quirky explanations through out, so you basically get to experience them with another focus.

You know, the world’s twelve thousand years old and dinosaurs existed, and existed in that time, you’d think it would been mentioned in the fucking Bible at some point:

And O, Jesus and the disciples walked to Nazareth. But the trail was blocked by a giant brontosaurus… with a splinter in its paw. And the disciples did run a-screamin’. “What a big fucking lizard, Lord!”

“I’m sure gonna mention this in my book,” Luke said. > “Well, I’m sure gonna mention it in my book,” Matthew said.

But Jesus was unafraid. And he took the splinter from the brontosaurus paw, and the brontosaurus became his friend. And Jesus sent him to Scotland where he lived in a loch, O so many years, attracting fat American families with their fat fuckin’ dollars to look for the Loch Ness Monster. And O the Scots did praise the Lord: “Thank you, Lord! Thank you, Lord!”

Ah, very clever twist on the famous Thatcher quote

There is no such thing as society.

There are individual men and women

and there is the thunderdome

I installed Ubuntu, and never looked back. I’d recommend trying it, and I hope it fits you too.

Tried this once, sort of. But it was in wmii. I switched workspace, and then my friend wanted the browser, so I say go ahead. He presses the little 2 down in the corner, I did not even know it was clickable, and that happens to be the workspace with the browser.

Older than this. I stopped before XP.

If either, a symmetric matrix would stop being symmetric and would hence not be able to wear pants. With this conclusion in mind I propose that symmetric matrices are from now on called naked matrices instead.

The AM/PM bullshit:

AM: 12, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11

Then the same for PM. Who counts like that? Whats after 12? 1! What?

Well, I would not give them that much credit. The majority governing coallition is with the far-right. They were clear before the election they were going to work with the far-right. They have a common platform with the far right which has a large overlap with e.g. Trumps; mass deportation of immigrants (like for reasons like being a victim of a crime), slashing government agencies, extreme restrictions on free speech, and so on. It is just a bit slower here when it comes to reaching their goals.

In Sweden the far-right tried to play this game. They started chirping about the social democrats being rasist and made a list on like an A4 with names and events. Then the same was done to them, matching the font, their list was taken up a skylift and holding one end they folded it out to the ground in a television program.
