Indeed. My girlfriend lives there, last time I was over we went to the big demonstration against mass tourism. I felt a bit sick at the airport listening to all the north European pensioners talking about how they rent a place year round for 800€/month just to spend the odd week now and then there. While many locals working in tourism make minimum wage, around 1300€/month I believe.
I know the Finnish National Library acquires and files a copy of every newspaper or magazine issue released in Finland, and many Finnish language ones released outside Finland. Other countries probably have something similar.
I’m not a Marvel guy, but I’m vaguely aware of that. But as someone who only read the occasional comic as a kid, it’s something I only learned of after the movies.
Well, he does play Nick Fury.
I realize I’m very privileged. If I’m working on an issue for a whole day or a half day, everything I do during that day is part of the solution and will be billed to the customer (and I’ll be paid for by my employer too). If that includes taking a nap, so be it. Results are what matter, as it should be. If someone ever starts saying I’m taking too long to do something I may consider changing my ways.
Thank you!
Thank you!
Stupid question probably, but as someone who hasn’t really gotten into V or VI yet and thought that at a cursory glance they seemed pretty similar - what kinds of big differences are there between them?
You don’t necessarily always check for something you’re used to buying, so the shrinking may go unnoticed for a while.
Here in Finland, since their return in 2013, Burger King has sought to differentiate from other chains by having self serve drinks and unlimited refills.
Reminds me of quite a dark joke that made the rounds in Finland some years ago, when a grooming ring run by recently arrived immigrants was discovered in Oulu.

Two screens and a laptop screen, could find use for more. I find myself shuffling things around depending on what I need, but most commonly I have the left screen split between notepad++ on one side for any notes keeping, and either documentation I’m reading, documentation I’m writing, a browser I’m using, or something such. Whenever I need to compare text files, notepad++ gets to take the whole screen.
On the middle screen I usually have the remote desktop or VM I’m working on at the time.
Right (laptop screen) is usually reserved for Outlook and Teams.
Live in a country where tipping is practically unheard of. Lately pay terminals have started appearing in restaurants that have asking for tip enabled by default, and restaurants often don’t know how to disable it.
Well, at least there are some safeguards. I was handed the terminal so I put in my PIN code, not realising it was actually asking for a tip. I was pretty confused when it said “value too high” or something like that.
Commendable effort, but I don’t think that’s how you’re supposed to make salmiac.
The way I understood it, it’s two million lines and nowhere near finished.
Anyway, satire.
There sure is, but mostly it manifests itself differently than in the US.
I guess we could call them tankivs going forward. It would be kinda fitting.
I just checked the site, it says the subscription includes a new detection module every three years. So at least some new gear is included.
Subscription for a product like this definitely feel very shady. But at least you can just straight up buy it. They say the subscription is intended for people who can’t afford the full price out of pocket.
This takes me back to the era when every other online store was selling DVD-gramophones.
