Can anyone tell me why my “purge cache” button is missing? I thought i was crazy

Yes, as a Swede I’d say we have way greater chances of reaching retirement, but it still comes down to saving by yourself if you want to live reasonably while retired.

I set myself a “spending budget” every month. After salary comes in i move what goes to bills and such expenses into a separate account. I divide whats left into 50/50, one half into savings the other to leisure. My savings account is set up to make long term investment into stock groups managed by the bank (unsure if there’s an english word for this, we håll them “fonder”). Usually i dont spend all the leisure money either way because i rarely purchase things and whats left when next months salary comes around also goes into savings.

I’ve been blessed by my parentes to start off with some savings so saving by myself once i started working was also allt easier.

To properly secure your future you need to earn enough money to even be able to start saving. Truly a “society” moment.

Also, this is an old meme, and a bit outdated for our times, but no one has mentioned it so ill do it. The Nokia 3310. Truly the AK-47 of phones.

I think every Swedish household i’ve ever been in has owned the same Moccamaster coffee brewer for over 15 years. My parents have had the same one for over 20 years probably, swear those are indestructible.

I did not know about that! Very interesting! I might need to update my logo a bit then 😅

You can check ProtonDB for specificerar games compatability. Most games from steam just install and run as usual. But other launchers and some games with anti-cheat can be a bit more wonky to get running or just dont work at all.

Personally ive almost never enjoyed gaming alone. I can count the singleplayer games ive finished on one hand. I almost exclusively enjoy playing games with friends. CO-OP, PVE, PVP, you name it. As long as i can play with friends and we can progress together im happy. Long term progression is my favorite, really seeing something grow that youve all done together is great. I enjoy MMO RPGs but also games like Minecraft, Factorio or Satisfactory.

As others have already mentioned breaking the pattern is the cure to boredom. Maybe try something new? Look for a genre youve nerver played or bringa some friends onto a Minecraft server. Maybe join a community and find some people to play with if no friends are interested. Or just take a break. Sometimes we ned to leave the cycle for a bit to be able to enjoy it.

Personally WSL has always been riddled with issues for me. I mainly used it for dev things before I switched to linux entirely. Recently I came back to Windows to try some of AMDs new graphics driver features and decided to try out WSL 2. Hell, Windows fucks up so much basic shit in there, i couldnt even run ‘git init’ because some permission issue with drive mounting. Had to move my entire project to a separate drive just to make it work. The way Windows handles the filsystem, permissions and “cross-OS” functionality is so weird and always results in some issue, making the Linux experience feel significantly more wonky than it needs to be. Performance is also a pain, since i had to love my project to a disk that was not part of WSL reading and writing files in VS Code becomes significantly slower.

I have a pretty high end rig and even my PC runs slow when using WSL, its great to have an option for linux in windows but when a docker container or even just a VirtualBox machine performs better than WSL i have no fucking clue why youd use it.

Thanks for listening to my rant. Take it with a grain of salt ig, maybe im just incompetent and doing something very wrong.

Who now? It was just a small scribble of my own logo as some form of watermark

Swede here, we have had strong labour laws and union laws for many years. The general reaction among people here when Musk tried anything remotely close to strike breakers were laughter about how stupid it sounds. It still baffles me that something like that is even allowed in the US.

We have many strictly enforced laws that help workers and employees not be abused by their employers. Unions have way more legal power and rights than in the US and usually just the mention of them makes employers bend over.

It is very funny to watch Musk trying to salvage his mess because thats just not how it works here.

Ofcourse our system isnt perfect, there are lot of flaws but its an imaginary utopia compared to whatever the US has.

They were in-house but the local dev team were not working with them. Work force in that country was cheaper so i just got fired shortly after :)

Me maintaining an old codebase and implementing features for months before boss shows up one day and says the 60 remote workers have been working on an identical project which will be the one we actually use. Bruh wtf

Not even kidding, my dad watches YouTube on this smart TV and when an ad pops up he covers his eyes and screams until he finds the mute button. He then keeps covering his eyes until he can fully skip the ads.

Yeah im saving that

I feel like im the opposite from a lot of people in this thread. I very rarely get upset. Like, once a year maybe? Sure, some things annoy me, but they’re rarely worth getting upset about. I think most people see me as a “funny guy” thats easy to be around.

Now I swear a lot, like very alot. And its mostly for comedic purpose or putting that tiny bit of emphasis on something, usually opposite from what i actually mean. Saying something like “a fuckton” usually means i had 2 apples instead of 1, where if i actually had way too many apples i would be more descriptive about it and not swear. People tend to take things more seriously that way.

I think casually swearing can help with not getting upset to begin with while also being more expressive if used correctly. I feel like i can get emphasis on what i say and having some form of relief from just swearing casually, which helps negate the build up of annoyances and eventually actually getting upset.

I very rarely swear in an insulting manner, i find it way more insulting and effective to use words that are very “unharmful” for that purpose, such as calling someone a clown or gnome. In the right setting those are devasting. I dont think it translates very well to english, but just imitating a 10yo and saying “your mom” is also just insanely funny as an insult because of how inherently stupid it is.

Very valid. I really enjoy it so far. No matter what browser im on i always spend a new minutes setting everything up. Might actullly harden this some extra. Probably wont get close to librewolf levels but i night be fine with that depending on much i manage to fix.

I found out they have a compact mode which completely hides the sidebar until you move your cursor to the edge. I didnt personally like it but maybe thats something for you?

Same at my new place, i tend to take a shorter lunch and leave earlier, i usually get into office at 8am or slightly before

This is indeed the appropriate reaction to being banned on counter strike. Joke aside you could just lock the entire functionality of adding an account to your family if someone got caught cheating though.

This looks very bandy. Thanks allt for the link!
