If you wanna say “hello shark!” in Danish you’ll say “hej haj!”

Good thing we don’t have sharks in Danish waters otherwise it’ll become pretty awkward when you greet someone at the beach.

Coincidentally last month I got the survey for the first time since I switched to Linux a decade ago.

I did that once in a left turn. I didn’t make the green light so I stopped in the “bike left turn lane” (in front of the car lane). A second or so later when it was full on red a car swerved into the opposite lane to get past me and blasted into the intersection. Had it been a second later he would have been struck by a car.

Some idiots have absolutely no self control… I bet those 30 seconds he saved must have cured cancer or solved world hunger or something…

I’ve got a 128GB Kingston DTSE9G2 and it has served me very well for close to a decade. Shit’s built like a tank and has sustained a lot of abuse being packed in my pocket with all the keys. Even survived a bike accident where I landed on the pocket (the pain was intolerable though…)

The problem is that with dumb drivers you can easily place blame at the driver and make him pay for his idiocracy. FSD is a lot more complicated. You can’t really blame the driver since he wasn’t driving the car but neither did the engineer or the company itself. We’d have to draw up entirely new frameworks in order to define and place criminal neglect if one should exist. Is the company responsible for a malicious developer? Is the company responsible for a driver ignoring a set guideline and sits impaired behind the emergency stop? Is the driver responsible for a software fault?

All of these questions and many more needs to be answered. Some probably can’t and must remain a so-called “act of God” with no blame to place. And people is not fond of blaming just the software, they’re out for blood when an accident happens and software don’t bleed. Of course the above questions might be the easiest to answer but the point still stands.

Meanwhile in Denmark: FULL STEAM AHEAD! Next stop on the digitalisation train, all of your identification papers!

Or do. It’s not like people care if he breathes.

“We can sell 80 percent of the screen before inducing seizures!”

In Denmark it’s illegal to cross the road 10-20m (or something like that, forgot the exact number) from a croasswalk. Outside that zone you can cross as much as you want. We are though seeing fences pop up on higher traffic roads to discourage crossing, but mostly on ring roads in bigger cities, not in the cities themselves.

In Denmark our district heating is so great that we have to import trash to burn at our Combined Heat and Power plants. Bit ironic given that we’re also a market leader on windmills that are supposed to replace plants.

Sounds like homelabber paradise is headed for eBay

Hold my pokéball I’m going in!

addy.io is another service which I’m using with my own domain. I know there exists a third, but I can’t remember the name.

What does nyTNH even mean!?

I call it sand that’s been tortured so much they started doing math.

I believe in Denmark the rule is just not to be a nuisance in traffic. I’m not sure a lower limit is that necessary.

In Denmark we have a single piece of highway were we have a “crawl lane”. It’s slightly uphill and outside the lane you must go at least 80km/h. I know it is more common in Southern Europe.

While I am not fond of AI, we do have access to it at work and I must admit that it saves some time in some cases. I’m not a developer with decades of experience in a single language, so something I am using AI to is asking “Is it possible to do a one-liner in language X where it does Y?” It works very well and the code is rarely unusable, but it is still up to my judgement whether the AI came up with a clever use of functions that I didn’t know about or whether it crammed stuff into a single unreadable line.

Well, it bloody hell is! Me not being bothered to get to school in time is also an excuse! It might not be a good excuse, but that wasn’t the question

Be happy that your local culture isn’t 8 to 4 instead of 9 to 5… Bring a night owl sucks here…
