Good public trackers were shut down. Getting into decent private ones is a huge pain, if you even manage to get an invitation/interview. Some trackers aren’t compatible with *Arrs (due to Cloudflare). Seeders and speeds can be awful, and keeping a healthy ration isn’t easy for some. If one is willing to pay, Usenet is a great alternative. I run both to cover most ground, but mostly rely on the latter now.
So, a relative of my partner’s is an influencer. I thought they had a glamorous life, because they travel all around the world. Turns out they don’t even technically get paid to promote products. Their trip expenses are covered, but that’s about it. Which I find bizarre, but I guess as long as they’re young and pretty it works.
It comes off as very out of touch when you know people are fatigued by having to send hundreds, if not thousands, of copies of their CV because the job market is absolutely broken. This doesn’t help anyone.
It sounds insane, especially for what they refer to as “casual labor”.
No, introducing Euro was 100% used as an excuse to hike up the prices even more. That’s not inherently a Euro problem, but corruption problem, yes. However, it did happen. At this point the prices are as bad as in Austria. Or even worse.
They did this in Croatia. Nevertheless prices rose up across the board.
I had white-grey hair, I just like the aesthetic. It’s definitely not the same look as naturally grey hair. I would have still had it if it didn’t mean absolutely destroying my hair with bleach.
Mojeek was a huge miss for me. Search results were mostly irrelevant to my search queries. I’ve yet to find any search engine that isn’t trash, though.
I have a friend who visits every year. They’re not concerned because “we’re white”. I wonder if they’ll still go this year after ICE killed (at least) two white US citizens.
I’d say “Mexican” food sucks in most European countries. I had exactly what you had in several places here. The only thing I’ve ever had that I could call real Mexican food was the tacos I ate from a food stand made by an actual Mexican in Netherlands.
The main thing I encountered has been gatekeeping the OS itself. I.e. you have to be a Linux nerd/expert to be allowed to use Linux. I personally haven’t seen that type of gatekeeping for other OSes. It’s literally just an OS. There are dozens of distros one can choose from. There’s something for everyone. I’m sure it’s just a vocal minority, but they do exist.
Duality of Linux community. On the one hand people can be extremely helpful and nice; I’m way more likely to find a solution to a problem, niche or otherwise, for a Linux system than Windows. On the other hand the community can be unbearably toxic and gatekeep like no other.
I’m not so sure. They do like to have weddings in Venice and spend time on their mega yachts. Being stuck in a hole eventually gets to a person, no matter the amount of entertainment, virtual or otherwise. These people want to have it all. Self-made prison is still a self-made prison.
The hilariously sad thing is they need us wage slaves to do their bidding. They love living their lives in luxury. They’d very quickly realize living in a bunker sucks ass.
From my experience, having fastboot on will report long uptime despite the reboot. So the user in question might be telling the truth.
On a serious note, I know someone who had a corrective surgery as a teen to “fix” his ears, and I genuinely think he looked better before. Now his other uneven facial features come in focus much more. Sometimes it just doesn’t make things better.
ITT: confidently incorrect people who can’t take 5 seconds to do an internet search, lol.
What are you even talking about? They both acquired it over Jure Sanguinis, both of them barely understand any Italian. They have dual Italian citizenship.
Nobody said anything about needing ancestors to live somewhere else.
Meanwhile in my company our department was told we need to work overtime to prove we need one more person to do the workload. Lol. Lmao even. Unfortunately, one of us is a workaholic and does exactly that.
