That’s standard in Sweden. 60 minute unpaid lunch breaks, two paid 15 minute breaks, minimum.

“Encrypted DMs”

isn’t that just a longer way of saying “PM”?

This is the way. There is a GParted distro that you can boot from a USB-drive that will allow you to move the partition and expand it to take up the free space Windows left.

You should first install GParted to familiarise yourself a little with how the GUI looks. It’s relatively simple, definitely simpler than parted, but it doesn’t hurt to have a look around before doing it live.

It’s also good to note that everything you do in GParted needs to be applied before it’s actually done. You “cannot” accidentally delete a whole partition without actually hitting an apply button.

In Swedish (maybe also Norweigan and Danish too?) we have a"mil" which is 10 km, I wish this was more wide spread because it’s fairly convenient.

It could even be called a mile! We already have ton/tonne which is just an absolute nightmare of a unit, so we might as well add more confusion to “mile”.

I use IntelliJ for web development (switched from a Java based team to web based) and I don’t really notice any problems. Even with VSC and VS running simultaneously.

I don’t remember how it was in my previous team as I’ve walled of those memories and experiences for mental health.

It took me 24 years to realize it didn’t read Gisnep

You’re welcome

I’ve found that Spotify goes “oh you listen exclusively to Scandinavian extreme metal? How about some American screamo OR the exact same stuff you’ve listened to already”, which is the polar opposite to what I want. YouTube music is just a huge mess for me.

Tidal however has reintroduced me to some great bands I had forgotten about and shown me some new ones which are Top Notch ™️

Or at Älgens Hus where they’re tame! Then you really get to appreciate how fucking gigantic those beasts are.

Engineering manager, the one responsible for a team

€70k as a developer? That’s a middled aged EM salary here in Sweden

I’ve been trying to think of an example, the only one I could think of is “assault rifle”. In Swedish, where we contract words, it would be “assaultrifle”, so it’s clear you’re not encouraging someone to beat up a rifle.

English is an inferior language because it does not combine words into one when it would make sense to do so to avoid confusion.

Change my mind.

I’m curious about this “stealing wages” idea. How have their wages been stolen?

CHOOSE:

grouping everyone on a binary political scale with no nuances

not thinking that you’re either left OR right, but realise that you can have different opinions and preferences in different areas and those can’t always be forced into a left/right box, and that you can agredisagree with anyone, regardless if you vote for the same party or not

It’s Finland you’re thinking of

(which as an aside is not a part of Scandinavia, but is a part of the Nordics)

Here in Sweden you can cancel a subscription however you wish (as long as it’s within reason). You can send a company snail mail, email, go by their office, phone, text, whatever reasonably reaches them. They’re not allowed to pull the “Oh, buy you have to call [number which leads to an antichurn department]” or “please tell us why” (but of course they’re gonna try anyway. If it’s an online form you usually have a “I don’t want to disclose why”-reason).

Why are you not capitalizing and why do you only use either a full stop or two exclamation marks?

I do not agree with you, gayhitler420. That sounds as polarized as US politics.
