It’s an accurate translation. Mikrobitti is a generic computer magazine (with a long history) so it could either be that the author is not very familiar with Linux cli or it might also be that they were trying to put it in layman’s terms.

Been on PS+ for 7 years and canceled it immediately when I saw the price hike. Also, not going to buy consoles anymore since they’ve gone to shit.

Well, there are programming languages that are not based on English (like BQN) In reality though the vast majority of the documentation, books, online discussions etc. are in English so I’d say it is at least hugely beneficial to know English.

Take some time every now and then to consider why you’re doing the things you’re doing. You may do them out of fear, shame, perceived obligation, to avoid doing something else, because your parents want you to, etc. Or you may do them because they genuinely bring you job, help you in some way or make the world a better place… Anyway, we people are weird creatures. We get stuck in situations, relationships, obligations, bad habits, destructive patterns without realizing what’s happening. Try to stay aware, honest to yourself (and others) and keep learning :)

You should be able to do that, you’d just need to set up and maintain the Nextcloud instance yourself :)

I use Hetzner’s Storage Share (which is a nextcloud instance) as my drive and pay around 5€ / mo for 1 TB. Depending on the features you want you could also use their Storage Box which is more like a plain network drive, and cheaper… like 13€ / mo for 5 TB.

Yup, I’ve started avoiding gaming forums, mostly stopped following news/rumors and hype trains and I’ve become “patient gamer”. As a result, I pay much less for games and enjoy more the ones I get.

I wanted physical books out of something that was only available as PDFs. So instead of going the sensible route I bought a color laser printer, learnt how to bind books, bought tools and materials, made a simple book binding press and made my own books.

I don’t need that powerful hardware… it’s the software side that’s mostly lacking for me (as a software developer :)

Choir … how would you spell it? Quier?

Carry ice picks (more like ice awls) with you when you travel on ice. If you fall through ice turn back to the direction you came from and start breaking the ice with your elbows (no use trying to get up as long as the ice is so brittle you can easily break it), then drag yourself up and start rolling away from the hole and trace your steps back. Also, try to get rid of the wet clothes as soon as you can.

How to dress for -30C weather. How to get out if you fall through ice into water.

It looks a bit rough but it’s very good. Had to quit it though because it took over my life.

I’ve been developing stuff with .NET and F#. For the most part the experience with the compiler, libraries and IDEs + tools has been good. Haven’t had to touch visual studio or windows. Most devs run Linux or MacOS and the end product is deployed on servers running Linux and open source dotnet. I’m about as far as you can be from a Microsoft fanboy but you might want to get up to date with the ecosystem. Is it my favourite tech stack? No, but I’ve experienced much worse.

Sorry but your examples of the problems are pretty minor and solvable by other means (you can’t do much with my credit card details because they require strong authentication which uses one-time passwords). Also, you conveniently leave out all the problems with cryptocurrency. It’s not like you’re protected in any way. We also do not have any adopted implementation of cryptocurrency that’s not slow and super wasteful of resources. So far they’ve also had the ponzi-scheme problem… first adopters can become very rich but late-comers get crumbs or lose everything.

I use Youtube-shorts block -add-on. It rewrites the url for shorts and shows them as normal videos (because they are). IDK why they had to make a new purposefully shitty player for them.

Siistiä! Menestystä opintoihisi! (Google will translate the latter to ‘good luck with your studies’ which isn’t exactly right. We do not wish luck as much as English-speaking people do, menestys = success)

Yeah, guessed they might be Finnish because of the username but that didn’t turn out to be the case =)

Guessed based on the username but sometimes it misses =) Anyway, glad you got here :)

Tervetuloa :)
