Happened to me as well, freezing up the whole system, especially with many/large files. None of the suggestions I found online actually worked. Happened on USB drives as well.
Then my whole HD gave up completely. Replaced it and all problems are gone. USB drives as well: turns out Linux at least tries to read it so you can attempt to save some data, while Windows just says it’s unreadable.
I tried it on a new Lenovo (AMD). The cursor size changed its size from normal to microscopic, depending on the application you hover over. Went back to X, no issues there.
Still can’t run Wayland on my system (Nvidia) at all.
Of course, but how often would you go to a coffee place? If you work in an office, coffee is usually free anyways.
As a poor European:
Coders saying “but me a cup of coffee” for $8.
I buy a pack of coffee of 250g for ≈ $3. An average cup, according to Google, is 7.5g.
That’s $0.40 for a cup.
(Or about 9 beers)
Living under Christianity means living in constant fear of being watched and judged and living in a world full of supernatural forces. It was a great relief when I realized it’s all bullshit.
“Less than 5 books” includes 0 books? Otherwise those stats are hard to believe.
ftp
It’s crazy that Firefox was good with ftp until they just decided to not support it anymore 😕
Checking my blocklist makes me wish communities could be blocked on category.
It’s mostly football, F1, sports, anime, porn but also star trek.
Small and windy. I would guess the higher temperatures are measured more inland.
Czechs are kind of known for being cold and distant. It’s a lonely place to live. I just went on a holiday and people could be so friendly and chatty in some other countries, at least reassuring me that it’s not me who’s the problem.
Brits and Germans are definitely friendlier and more sociable than Czechs (or Dutch) but the real chatty ones are down South, around the Mediterranean.
I really doubt that.
Czechia. In many supermarkets “discounts” only apply when you have a card/app. Essentially the “discount” is normal price, otherwise you’ll pay nearly double.
I worked in Lisbon for a while. Salary after tax was 700 EUR and a (very tiny shared) room was provided but I couldn’t afford my own place. Now I’m in Prague and although I live very, very small, at least rent is “only” half of after-tax salary.
So more of a crisis in one place than another, but it would’ve been nice if something more than just a one-bedroom apartment would still be achieveable.
I’m using fake names on all those things, but prices without loyalty are often insane. It’s basically an extra tourist tax.
I rarely use cash. Nearly everything I spend is on supermarket and they know exactly what I buy because we’re forced to use their “loyalty” programs anyway.
Then traveling: dealing with other currencies, coming home with unspendable money. And there’s no interest on cash lying around.
But I hate the tendency for places to not accept cash at all, there should still be a choice.
One bonus is that I keep finding money on the streets in countries that love cash.
Depends where you go. My Czech bank card is a debit card with a number on it that you can use like a credit card. Dutch banks don’t have this and we use different online payment methods. I never really needed a credit card for anything (until I traveled in France) so the price to have one is not worth it.
You’re not supporting development, you’re supporting a rich guy getting richer:
Interesting to note that the Mozilla CEO earned nearly as much ($5.6 M) as Mozilla received in donations ($7 M).

I doubt that many people have a car
99 percent of the country have access to a DAB±compatible receiver
That’s surprising. I didn’t think many people still listen to radio.
More recent ones that are really good:
Barry, a show about a murderer that turns out to be really funny.
Snowfall, about drug dealers making it to kingpins. A similar show, Queen of the South is also good.
And some classics that are funny and clever enough to rewatch:
Keeping up Appearances, I think we all know some of these characters in real life
Flight of the Conchords
