And if Honey, I didn’t shrink the kids?

That is the loosest fucking definition of a valley ever.

So how big are DS9 and the Defiant actually? The scales were all over the place.

Yea, was meaning to say just this. Pride was never “gone”, and the clearest proof of this was still under Orbán’s rule, where participating was still an act of resistance to the government. It might become smaller, more chill now.

+1 for garbager. Garbaging is hard.

They eat mold afaik. So if you see them, you know there’s a source of humidity/mold you ought to check out.

It’s been mentioned, but this is just a horrible title for the article. Bottom line: Japanese pubs for locals are struggling, because the locals themselves spend less time and money there —¹ for completely sensible reasons. Yea, they didn’t pivot to catering to foreigners to save their businesses, but there is no mention of xenophobia being the reason. Guess we’ve gotta ragebait somehow 🤷.

I would be happy to demonstrate to you how you can drown in a bathtub. PM me for details; get your affairs in order beforehand.

Layoffs of managers.

Get any Linux sysadmin certificate! The world’s infrastructure runs on Linux, CI/CD-pipelines have a heavy Linux bias, and compared to how Oracle or SAP certs have developed, anything certifying you as capable of installing, setting up, and administrating a network of productive Linux servers is imho the straightest way to a solid job.

No.

Aging 20-30 years in that future should be portrayed as ~10-15 years of aging in our timeline. People (esp. Inners) are far more long-lived thanks to advanced pharmaceuticals. See the coroner’s bit about life expectancies in S1.

They do have a bad track record

I VILL FUCK WIV TIME!

Point is though, that you’ll want no trouble with the law abroad, especially on a school trip. Keeping a respectfully low profile is never a bad idea.

Though I do confirm that Munich police are quite chill and helpful.

I’m a naturalised Swiss citizen from the German-speaking part, originally from Eastern Europe. I’ll try to cover some of what other comments haven’t:

1. First thing: get employed. In fact, get a contract before even coming here. Life in Switzerland has serious recurring costs and safety nets are sparse. I’m not saying it’s easy, it’s the biggest challenge, but it only gets easier from there.
2. Learn the language (Swiss German), keep practicing it, and mind that you’ll never be 100% accent-free or accepted by everyone in society. Switzerland has a kind of baseline hostility towards everyone, and foreigners get some extra.
3. Build up your own circle of friends, which is downright easy in most “cities”. Pubs are ubiquitous and great for this. There is a sizeable Balkans minority, which might need some extra navigation, but you prolly know this better than I.
4. If you’re through with points 1.-3. though, let me tell you, this is hands-down the best country in the world. You’ll love it here. You’ll never feel as home anywhere else like you’ll do here.

Edit: had problems with opening your link, replying to your linked comment now…

I do mean with Linux. I bought it with Widows on and eventually put Debian on it. KDE Plasma already does a wonderful tablet mode out of the box and it’s getting better. The stylus isn’t all that reliable yet.

If a SW dev applicant gives a 20-file generated output for a 20-line assessment problem and can’t explain single lines of “their” code, either what they should be doing or why “they” had written it, it’s gonna be a no from me, dawg. A standard problem might have different solutions, but fixing the issue of the day to the satisfaction of a rabidly vocal customer base might have one at most, and it will change multiple times on a whim.

So the LLM might have helped them cheat their way to an MSc, but there’s no cheating your way through real life.

Conversely, being forced to use Excel with Copilot is the traditional punishment for unwarrantedly flogging somebody (you need to get consent first, mmkay?).
