can’t even imagine what type of job I’d love

Fun fact! Most of us don't love our jobs. We just do them to have a roof over our heads and food on our tables.

Yes. That's public agent.

I haven't done it on Android, but you get to do remote debugging through Safari on a Mac when you plug in a developer-enabled iPhone.

I'd expect Chrome and Firefox to do the same on Android in sone manner.

I enjoyed my time with our newborn, but it's no vacation. I took 4.5 months of paternity leave in a row.

Sweden is pretty generous with parental leave. Me and the Mrs get 480 days to share between us. 390 of which are at some 80% of our salary. The other 90 days pay peanuts, but great to have when you need some time off to get started with preschool and stuff. You have 90 days earmarked for yourself that can't be transferred to the other parent.

At 5 days a week those 480 days last two years.

Everything this man does is what a Russian asset would do to weaken the United States.

I've tried some of scopely's games. They're following this playbook to the letter.

You'll be getting freebies when your friends spend cash. You'll get time limited offers. You'll be paying to "try again", against other players.

Who wins when a wall street broker and an oil sheikh use their wallets to fight over a Pokémon gym? Scopely wins.

I just bought one last year.

It's not retro. It's in that sweet spot where it's irrelevant enough to be dirt cheap.

We'll need to wait another 10-20 years before the kids who grew up with the xbox360 have enough time and disposable income to buy and play all the games they loved in their youth.

We have a local meshtastic network set up for just this scenario. There's not s lot of chatter, though.

Telegram used to have these local public chat rooms that anyone could see or join. The common topics were:

  • Pokémon go
  • Offers to sell sex
  • Offers to sell drugs

But I guess Pokémon go is out if there's no internets.

Sweden loves to have all their data publicly available. There are some sites that aggregate this, which is a bit of a legal grey area. Anywho, anyone can look me up and find that I own my house, what vehicles I have and that I have two dogs.

I'm hoping the authorities would look me up and do a welfare check on the dogs if both me and my SO were wiped out in a car crash or something.

We've had a way oversized bowl of water out since the Mrs was pregnant, just in case her health would have to take priority (also the neighbours were on standby to take care of the dogs). Plus extra bowls around the house. They shouldn't go thirsty for at least a week.

Finland had to accept responsibility for being invaded by Russia. Also, they had to give away land mass that Russia failed to grab. Also, they had to give up some sovereignty. Also, they had to pay ginormous reparations and sign deals to buy army stuff from Russia.

Nice army stuff, though. I've been in a 1995 KRAZ with a wood frame for the driver. Also they don't have a tap for draining motor oil, because who would expect them yo return from the frontlines?

Calluses build up fast if you keep at it.

The pain is just weakness leaving the body.

I've visited the US a couple of times for work.

I've been very careful with my wording when they've asked if I'm there to work.

Yes, I'm there for work. I'm employed in the EU, and I'm just there representing my employer at a fair or technical meeting. I'll be gone in a few days.

My colleague didn't have the same way with his words, but back then they'd just put you on the next plane back.
