Reminds me of a story a friend told me when I was traveling through South America.
My friend was walking home late at night and a guy from another country (forgot which, but it was obvious from his accent) asked him for money. This exchange of course happened in Spanish:
“I have an iron” “what does iron means in your country?” “by iron I mean knife” and pulls out a knife “oh, because here iron means this” and pulls out a gun.
Then the robber just ran away.

I bought a laptop that came with a broken charger, I could easily test it myself as a friend also had an HP laptop with the same brick (this was before the days of USB C).
I tried to make a warranty claim and they wanted me to send the laptop too and wipe the HDD, the RMA process would take weeks on top of that.
I ended up buying a 3rd party charger, I’m sure their RMA process is overly long and convoluted to deter people from making warranty claims
NZ is usually used as a Guinea pig by tech companies, small population, English speaking, etc.
However I think it might be that the Alll Blacks might face off the Springboks in the Rugby World Cup Final and Elon wants to minimise the shitposting on Twitter. /s

During my last trip to Germany I made the mistake of traveling by train. My scheduled train got canceled and the next one would come in 1 hour.
I decided to wait and when the time came, no train showed up, the display said the train would arrive on platform 5, the announcement said it was platform 5, their app said platform 5 but nothing showed up.
About 10 minutes after the scheduled time I went to the ticket office to ask what happened, their answer was a “maybe it went through another platform”.
After the revival they just re-released the Batman games, announced a sequel to The Wolf Among Us and then nothing for 4 years? It is sad to see Telltale gone, but at the same time I am not surprised.
yes, and according to the article, OpenOffice was already abandoned for 4 years ago by then
My sister’s job just switched to LibreOffice in 2018, OO is still alive and kicking in a lot of small companies

I am a light user so I just stayed on version 3.0.2
It works for my use case as it is and the day it doesn’t, I’ll look for whatever fork is most popular
A friend works for a large-ish company that makes a product on Unity (not a game tho) and he just told me they were moving to Godot ASAP
I used to play a lot of Warsaw and never heard of the fork. I’ll Check it out later tonight, thanks!
they do, my sister just bought one
My previous job referred to ex employees as traitors or betrayers
I left NZ a few years ago and one of my main reasons were the lower incomes and high cost of housing. It all came down to the fact that I couldn’t even afford to rent a flat by my self, whereas right across the Tasman I could earn twice the salary and have a comparable if not lower cost of living.
Eventually I’ve ended up in Europe and I’m earning almost 4 times of what I was earning back home. I’ve considered coming back, bit the prospect of maybe never being able to own a home keeps me away.
