  It never states that they had these in their birth years. Just that they had them. Might have been in the 2020s with the Koenigsegg Jesko Absolut, which is the fastest car and was built in their lifetime. And coincidentally, currently the fastest in my lifetime as well

  Coming to work 10 minutes later than the agreed time is just not on time as finishing 10 minutes later. Both can happen once in a while and I’m general I don’t see an issue, e.g. there’s been an accident on the road you use to work? Not your fault, but you weren’t there on time. 10 minutes of more work because something that nobody has on their radar came up? Also ok but also not on time.

  It’s a totally different thing to say “sorry I’m late, I’ll make up for it by covering for you next time you need to leave a bit earlier” and “10 minutes later is basically on time”. Same if a boss says “Sorry this took longer today, just come in later another day” which is fine vs “a little bit of extra work has never hurt anybody” or “your own fault you didn’t finish the task during agreed hours”

  Can’t really agree here. If you have an agreement on when your work starts, you should honor it. If it doesn’t matter when you start working, have flexible hours put into your contract.

  In some fields, this behavior would just lead to someone else having to do your work. Not very cool

  How’s the non-chain scene in Germany?

  Generally pretty good, at least for Kebab, burgers, fries, sausage and grilled chicken. Sandwiches are a total niche though. Basically only smaller ones premade at bakeries and shops (premade still referring to made in store, but not upon request).

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Subway lovers posted⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Well, this was my perspective from Germany. We don’t have and never had a real competing chain. We have McDonald’s, Burger King, KFC as big fast food chains. So this is what they compete against here

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Subway lovers posted⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I also actually do like Subway.

  It’s it the best thing ever? No. But when I have the choice between McDonald’s, some bread bun with maybe a single slice of salad and subway, the choice is very clear. All their options come with good amounts of veggies, they had decent vegetarian options quite early, their cookies rock and they were one of the few offering free refills.

  I dunno what the snobbism is always about. I love it when I need to wait for a train and Subway is an option.

  They’re both stimulants with a dopamine re-uptake inhibitors.

  That’s not how amphetamine works. It’s correct for cocaine, but amphetamine promotes dopamine release, it doesn’t inhibit reuptake.

  In the end, both increase dopamine availability… but through different mechanisms and they’re chemically different as well.

  healthy amphetamine breakfast

  Now that’s a pleonasm

  Coke isn’t an amphetamine

  And their newest feature is allowing every user to put in their credit card info and buy MS products on the company domain without running it by IT. It’s called “self service”, enabled by default, and you have to click on a slider to disable it individually for every. single. product. Microsoft. offers.

  LMAO that is a special kind of pathetic

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's fire... Maybe concerning but fire still⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  By itself nothing. It was more along the lines of “why doesn’t the Finnish game support the Finnish kennel”.

  Noita doesn’t even need proton, it’s using OpenGL so plain wine is perfectly fine.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨It's fire... Maybe concerning but fire still⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Dang I haven’t played Noita in like a week

  Thinking about it, it’s weird that it has no native Linux version

  Yeah, but if I’m not mistaken not because they’re the same architecture, but because each WiiU had full Wii hardware inside it, so it was actually two consoles. The Wii was actually just a faster GameCube.

  I haven’t encountered systemd bugs in NixOS yet. Doesn’t mean they don’t exist - but I can’t confirm the issue.

  I run everything on NixOS nowadays and I do think that all of this makes sense, whether the implementation is the best I can’t judge.

  Just wanted to make sure my statement wasn’t a criticism on NixOS, the maintainers do a great job. It’s rather taking a jab at the “boring” statement.

  Nowadays if I want declarative configuration, I just cram everything into docker containers and write a huge docker-compose.yml for everything that I want to run.

  Docker compose is imperative though ;) (if that actually matters is up for debate) - fun fact nix allows you to build containers very easily.

  I love how you can set up SSL certificates for nginx with autorenewal just by switching it on in configuration.nix.

  How well this all goes together is really one of the strongest points of nix and NixOS. Though just for manageability, I personally wouldn’t put this into configuration.nix, but rather into a file dedicated to the respective service.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Which one is you?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  NixOS “is boring and iust works” until you want to do something fancy a module author didn’t anticipate and suddenly you find yourself defining functions that use genAttrs on some lists imported from JSON files

  What’s confusing about wine prefixes apart from the fact that wine itself doesn’t come with a graphical interface to manage them? On a Deck, Steam should handle these for you
