Yup. The mentality is great. ‘you get a line - a 1 or 10gbit line costs us the same once it’s set up, so you pay the same price’

Thing is, yes. Yallo or wingo or all those providers are “cheaper”. But - for example in the case of yallo, you get double-natted - which means you could not really set up a home server accessible from the outside world even if you wanted to. Then, there’s also the support of wingo and yallo and so on which is… Terrible. I actually ordered yallo Internet at first because I got sold on it over the phone - the next day, before anything got shipped or anything, I wanted to annul my contract because, well, I found out about their shitty stuff. I was redirected like 8 Times across 8 levels of ‘support’ until I got it through.
I went for init7. Day it was supposed to go up, it didn’t. Phone support was competent, said everything looked ok from their end. If I was sure the problem wasn’t on my end (router, settings, fiber), they could send a technician along the next day - but if the problem would end up being on my side, I’d have to pay for it. As I was sure about what I was doing, the next morning I had a competent technician in my apartment who within 20 minutes total identified the issue and fixed it (broken fiber in the distribution center). That is good support.
I am willing to pay more to support init7, because they’re doing great work.
But yes, we have lots of low cost options. For example, I pay 23 bucks a month with yallo for unlimited 5g data, calls and SMS across the whole of Europe.
I mean, I can get symmetrical 25gbit/s for 777 bucks a year IN Switzerland. No limits, big ipv6 subnet, great provider. Init7.
That’s a thing with us Europeans - especially if you don’t want to perfectly adopt a British or American accent. This is when you end up with the “euro accent” - you’re perfectly fluent in English, without the accent of your native language, but since its neither British nor American English, it sounds just the slightest bit different.
Care to enlighten us?
I use vscode because I do a lot of embedded.
Used to be that you had to jump through some hoops to make it work - make your own makefiles and stuff. Now, all the major vendors of MCUs are starting to develop vscode plugins as their “IDE” instead of those horrible ultramodified eclipse installs.
Deja vu. I get it as well, especially as a kid.
I do like having a beer for dinner sometimes. Just one. When I don’t feel like getting drunk otherwise. It just fits the food and is tasty.
But yes, if I go out drinking, I drink because Ethanol.
The way transistors and integrated circuits are made is called lithography. Stone scribing. If you describe it that way, electricity sounds like magic.
Usually, not too weird.
But I guess what qualifies as ‘weird’ is that I enjoy consuming snus / oral tobacco when masturbating. And exclusively when masturbating.
I have xm3s and they are still going strong
For me it’s stfu
Yeah, while I’m not a big hiker myself, being Swiss I know how prepared you need to be.
Walked around in Taiwan when I came across a hiking trail. 1.5 hours, like 150m verticality only, labelled as easy. Cool, but not enough water (only carried a 2l bottle). Went to a local teahouse and got me 4 more bottles to be safe and went for it. Walked past countless others because I was underprepared, and am glad I did because those could have turned out not so nice if I did go.
Used to be the case in Switzerland, now most beer bottles have a twist-to-open cap that still looks like a normal beer bottle cap.
By at some point saying ‘OK, enough side quests, let’s move on with the story’. I plan to replay this game multiple times, so I do not mind missing some side quests in my first playthrough.

Project hail Mary was cool in the fact that it was just so… Different. Won’t say too much to avoid spoilers, but I think it’ll tick your boxes.
Fun fact: Corona is basically like the flu now. People die from the flu. People die from corona.
Do you make big news out of people not getting a flu shot?
It’s a personal risk assessment.
I wouldn’t call 1tb storate for 4$ and 1tb egress for 7$ “dirt cheap”. Hetzner storage boxes are cheaper.
If its a German degree - Germanistik is different from just German courses. It’s more about German literature - how the language evolved, why things are the way they are, analyzing uses of language and so on.
Not really a useful degree, but a degree you need to put work in nonetheless
