To add, Switzerland is a little weird with accident vs disease. If it’s an accident (ie sudden, unavoidable, unpredictable, more or less) it’s great because you have nothing to pay, you don’t even need to worry about the bill and there is n

Oh wow. They were cool with me they said if we transport you it’ll be expensive. I didn’t have a car, I was living pretty high up a hill, it was midnight, and I had lost quite a bit of blood already so I thought “fuck it I’ll find out how e

I had to call an ambulance in Switzerland where ambulance prices are freely set by the operator (except in a few cantons which are enforcing reasonable flat rates) A 5 minutes ride cost 1500.- (more or less the same in USD) Because I had us

I too loathe LinkedIn. However it kinda feels like you have to use it if you’re a freelance senior developer and want to find projects. At least that’s what many B2B people say. So I’m wondering: long term freelancers who make a living out

That’s not how it is there though. Any change whatsoever, justified or not, is opposed. So the government goes for bust and makes changes that help the biggest companies, the richest in the country, friends of the president (whoever they ar

It’s not only their printers. Their computers and peripherals are also very low quality nowadays. Enterprise buys them because they’re cheap not because they’re good. The bar they have to clear is to keep working for the lease’s duration (3

There is a strike or demonstration of sorts every other day in France. Or so it seems living there. It’s become so frequent that it has little to no meaning anymore. The government is scared to implement any meaningful change because it’s g

It’s as if they were working super hard to obliterate their domination of the consoles market. Xbox is in shambles but if Sony keeps pulling these braindead moves and annihilating any goodwill they have, Xbox might come out on top despite t

E-bikes. Not super hilly but I think it’d be tiring with an acoustic bike for a business.

You’d be surprised. A family member bought a 2025 utilitarian car (Dacia). It’s the one on the newer platform (Clio 6) so they can implement all the beeping mandated by law. The car beeps exactly the same way whatever the reason so you can’

I own a car and a bike. I wouldn’t mind if cars were banned or very heavily restricted in the city. I have a trailer for the bike, we can haul 100 lbs. it’s more than enough. Businesses can be allowed to get deliveries, just personal cars a

Well we still use Roman months and weekdays, and carry over the 30/31 days months even though we could’ve had a way better system by now (base 10 and equal divisions)

To me it signals bad engineering in the underlying system which doesn’t exactly encourage trusting the system with my data.

I worked some (terrible) place that did that and wouldn’t allow you to use your last 3 passwords. So what we were doing is that when it was time to rotate password, we would change our password 3 times in a row and on the fourth time we wou

The point of a wide monitor for me is to have two 720 wide windows side by side, not a single gigantic 1440 window with impossibly long lines.

Good that Americans have a right to bear arms exactly to prevent this kind of totalitarian overtake of the country. From the outside, it looks like what the stasi was doing, in the oh so vile communist regime (it was also a totalitarian one

I would not recommend wireless Sony earphones or headphones. I’ve owned three different models and in all of them the batteries failed after a few years. Check out the reviews there is an abnormal amount of failures. My conclusion is that w

Terrify me? Really? There are other, genuinely terrifying things happening right now: climate change, human rights violations, animal rights, the spread of totalitarianism… that’s terrifying.

I had 40 Celsius today at around 9pm. Middle of the night now and it’s 34. It’s as cool as it’s going to get before it starts heating up again tomorrow. Where I live there are no laws on max temperature in residential housing so the owner (
