There is no general answer to that. Some people can’t focus on a job from 12 to midday, others can stay hyperfocused in the zone until they drop or someone gets them out of it. As a student, I did a highly concentrated programming job from Thursday to Saturday in one go with only short breaks for food and bathroom, and three hours of sleep in total.

Just a friendly gesture among right-wing autocrats.

Found the American.

In a fantasy world I designed, a butterfly is one of the worst killers. Its touch is toxic, landing on any exposed skin is deadly, but in a horrible way. The victim is just paralyzed, not killed, and the butterfly returns to the victim to lay its eggs, and the larvae eat their way into the still living body…

The good thing is that most of those “arcane magic things” in the terminal can simply be copied and pasted into said terminal. Whereas finding an obscure option on a windows program setting three requestors and five buttons deep is a nightmare, especially if your UI is not set to English.

For them, adding the AI is probably cheaper then fixing the UI.

That’s not the issue. It looks like there is a problem with the hinges. And no, oiling didn’t help.

Smart idea. I know, because I tried it already. Didn’t really work (a slight inclination didn’t work, and I didn’t want to tile it more).

Yes, yes, accurately observed.

The fridge. If you close it too hard or too soft, it ends up not closed, but a fingers’ width open.

To get spoilers, watch Downfall.

I did not invent “recall”.

I would not mind if they toned it down to what other people do for a watermark. As in: if you really look for it, it is noticeable, but it does not obstruct actual contents, or makes it harder to read.

And if they don’t want it to be copied or scanned, just drop in a few Eurions.

If I have documents on my harddisk, they are private. If a windows 11 user has documents on their harddisk, they are not.

If they are still using windows, their privacy and data safety was never of importance to them, anyway.

Or just get the data back from the backups they made.

Back when I studied in that city, I did commute by bike, 20km each way, and was much faster than public transport. I am happy that I only have business there two or three times a year.

The problem is that it does not remove cars in that city. People still need to get to work, and public transport is so bad, it is hardly an alternative.

The mayoress simply f-cks up car traffic, only marginally improves bike traffic, and public transport (busses) have been victims of cutting into car traffic, too.

Better make a big detour around that place.

European data on European servers is fine, as long as American agencies can’t just access data on those (which one cannot rule out with American companies).

I would not mind. In the mean time, I skip that city and actually drive to the next city over and use their tram to get to the city center. Even though it is much farther, it is still quicker.

The US takes tariffs on the good stuff? Looks like there will be more stuff for us in the future.
