• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Safety Razors are amazing⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Well I only did a one timer now. My routine is as follows:

  Use a face cleaner by Boldking, rinse off with lukewarm water. Dry off.

  Lather up with the cream gel by Boldking.

  Shave with the grain.

  Wash off cold, dry.

  Then I apply after shave cream by Bodking.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can an American go to Europe just for cheaper healthcare?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I take an injection every four weeks, they cost 600 each. Add up a few visits to the dentist, GP and a check up at an academic hospital and I’d pay about a third of the actual cost.

  Then again my dad never has any ailments, lives a healthy lifestyle with a lot of exercise and he pays the same.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can an American go to Europe just for cheaper healthcare?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Yep the issue with our system is that people who never see a doctor or a hospital pay for the ones that have been dealt a rough hand or live unhealthy. The idea is that being ill is not the standard. You should be able to do a Pareto analysis of costs and it might check out.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Can an American go to Europe just for cheaper healthcare?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  It varies per country. If you would go to the Netherlands, you’d still need health insurance. You can only get it if you are a Dutch citizen in some way. The costs of this are about 180/month. Plus you have what we call your own risk. If you need healthcare you pay 385 maximum yourself. If you can’t pay that, there are installment plans. And if the 180 a month is too steep for you, there is support from the Belastingdienst (IRS) that is dependent on your income.

  So example: if you need an operation that is covered in basic Dutch health insurance and you would live here for a year on work visum, you might pay 2400 a year in insurance costs and 385 own risk, totaling to 2785. If the operation would cost more than that in the US, you’re in luck.

  This is all provided you can get health insurance in the Netherlands.

  In the Netherlands, as a Dutch citizen, health insurance is mandatory.

  Pretty much yeah

  It’s interesting because a form of therapy I’m currently in is all about noticing bad thoughts and defusing from them

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How is spontaneous betting (as portrayed by comics and movies) supposed to work?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  There’s loads of things in tv shows that just skip the boring, logistical parts. Nobody wants to see a bookkeeper painstakingly taking leaflets and bets in orderly fashion.

  Besides, if there’s no record whatsoever, what’s to stop a bookie from taking money from the losers, and telling the winners ‘prove it’? Besides a knuckle sandwich, that is.

  Another one is basically any desk job, but particularly IT jobs in TV and movies. Even the most elite hackers don’t just insert a thumb drive in a laptop, hammer the keyboard and yell ‘I’m in’. Mr. Robot is the only show so far where hacking is portrayed somewhat believable, and it’s still mostly social engineering.

  As for programming, the only show I’ve ever seen who do a realistic way of describing VC funding and agile project development is Silicon Valley, but even there you’ll find the most boring things are just omitted.

  Point is, it’s just difficult to make administrative tasks interesting enough to keep the attention of viewers.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The joy of quitting a shit job with an asshole boss⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  In the Netherlands, by law there is a minimum of one month’s notice. If the employers fire you, the notice time is doubled. So if a company would require three months notice it means you can still work there for 6 more months after you’re fired.

  A third option is that there is a third pizza eater who also ate 4/6th of their pizza and gave 2/6th up Marty in exchange for the 2/6th Marty didn’t eat.

  Or yeah maybe it was a larger pizza.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What's your ideal TV series length and style?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It really depends on the show. If it’s something with a compelling story, like an action drama or a mystery, I prefer 40-60 minutes with 6-10 episodes per season. Depends on how strong the writing is. Shows that do it right: Severance, Andor, Slow Horses.

  If it’s more comedy focused, like a sitcom, 20 minutes an episode is fine. A little over if necessary is fine. Shows that do this well: Shrinking, Most animated comedy shows like Rick & Morty…

  Michael Schur is keeping busy though. I’ve been following most of his stuff and it’s all pretty similar. Which is good. I like the work he does with Justin Spitzer as well.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Liquid Trees⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Green shit on your terrace, leaves fucking everywhere, looming threat of bird shit on your head, seeds everywhere, roots growing through everything, blocking the sun at every step, tough lessons in gravity for things kids climbing them, lot of damage when it’s stormy out.

  But nah trees are great, really.
