So back in the day you had to know a lot of weird tricks. The goal was usually to make it look the same in every browser so you had to know the differences between them and what caused them. I think that's why I don't find it very hard today, even though I don't do much CSS it usually works. With the changes to CSS since then, that old knowledge might be a lot harder to find for newcomers.

The struggle to find something to watch might be just what keeps me there. Can't find it easy enough to be able to say "I've seen everything worth watching on Netflix". Now I know there's some good stuff there just waiting to be discovered, so I watch this half crappy stuff until I do.

Don't know, I think it could mean a lot of things. You usually read about it when healthy young persons drops dead on a football field in the middle of practice. Saw some numbers about it recently, happens a lot.

> The proposals will require that streaming services give over at least 30% of their on-demand catalogues to original productions made in each EU country where a service is provided

Not possible and for sure nothing people even want. We have two or three channels in Sweden that makes original content that could go up on Netflix. And they don't really have more than one or two series (10 episodes max) running at a time per season. Two of the channels have their own streaming service (C-More, Viaplay), the third is public service who also puts it up there (SVT Play) for a good long time.

There is plenty of really bad content that the tv channels can sell to Netflix though. A good way for a traditional tv company to stay alive a bit longer. But then there's HBO and others that needs exclusive rights to the content so probably still not possible.

They have, got an email from them a week ago or so saying emails and encrypted passwords had leaked and that all passwords are annulled.

I almost only use my Nexus 9 for Netflix/Plex in bed and a few ebooks now and then. Not sure I want to replace it with something that does more than that, buy some expensive replacement and still only end up doing the Netflix in bed thing would suck. I hope there still are some cheap (Xiaomi maybe?) tablets out there when that day comes.

I kept hearing yanny even on full laurel, then I tried thinking "laurel" and there it was. ... Ok, when I imagine myself talking with a deep voice I hear "laurel" even in the middle where "yanni" was super clear. Strange!

And on linux you can always boot a live usb and mount your file system to it and try to figure out whats wrong. I had to do that only a few days ago to repair the bootloader that had fried itself somehow. Of course you have to know what to look for, maybe this is possible with windows and macos too, but the way I always went with those was to do a fresh install.

Between 7 and 8 hours, probably closer to 8 most days. Alarm is flexible between 08.00 and 08.30. 6- hours of sleep happens every now and then too ofc. and 9+, not that much though. I'm usually not tired until bedtime. I can probably reduce it to 6 - 7 hours and be a bit tired half of the day. I don't drink coffee.

These are called "bärfisar" in swedish ("berry farts"). Don't think we have the house invading kind... yet. Looked it up, there are over 6000 variants, we have 28 here.

Had some problems with flour beetles once, they didn't exactly smell like roses either. Not sure if I ever crushed a berry fart though so don't know how it compares. Probably much worse.

I've been doing a little genealogy lately and seen a few pictures of gravestones belonging to the people I'm related to that emigrated. Not a lot of other traces of them so thats pretty neat, sure!

Here in Sweden we have really good records that are open and free to search online. The church kept an eye on everybody back in the days so the only obstacle is not being able to read some priests old handwriting from the 1700s, or that everybody had the same names back then, "Anders Andersson" might be the worst example of that. I hope AI will take care of that, probably any day now. Might take some of the fun out of it though.

My mothers grandfather that died in 1938 still has his spot, it is going to be there for a few more years. I don't think anybody has visited it for a very, very long time. My mom didn't even know it existed until I found it online, so at least 60 years. I think the standard "lease" was for a really long time back then, and now when the grave yards are overcrowded you have to renew it every 10 - 15 years by default. A lot of people probably makes the first grave into a family grave. So you'll have grandmother, grandfather, father, mother, fathers second wife (awkward :P), and so on in the same grave.

Not like they are pumping around the ashes. It's worse to think about than it really is. It's just heat. Every now and then you think about where the water you're drinking have been in the past too, right?

I believe we have a few crematoriums connected to the heat networks here in Sweden. Kind of creepy to think about, but creepy isn't a good argument against it so why not, I guess.

My father passed last week, maybe he heated up a small part of Stockholm already. I don't really know what happens next. Personally I don't care that much, I got my memories and that is enough for me. But based on what happened to the rest of my dead relatives he'll get a small plate with his name on at the corner of some church yard. It will be up for x years until they have to make room for the next batch. You can always pay to keep it up for maybe five or ten more years, but what is the point? Memories are free and worth way more than the tiny nameplate.

You can disable bookmarks showing up in the address field in the settings. Url auto completion could still be better though.

Maybe I'll try it next time. Not sure yet what Antergos will do for me, except the installer, but for this install, and so far, I'm happy with it. It's still mostly arch anyway.

It's not that it is too hard or takes very long time, but I still have to pull up my notes and do it.

I was using Arch with bspwm for a few years, until ~a month ago when I wanted a clean system. But this time I wasn't up for the whole installation process. I know what I need, I know how to do it, and I can do it pretty fast. But it is still a lot, so this time I went with Antergos. I had this idea that using Arch with a minimal window manager and nothing more would keep me off distractions from annoying UI features, but it was a lot of work for very little reward. It is easier to just ignore what you dislike in gnome, I don't even think that I dislike anything about it anymore (compared to when I was new and came straight from OS X). Learnt a lot on the way though, totally worth it!

From what it looks like reading swedish news over the years, there is no money in running a traditional farm, german milk is cheaper, danish meat is cheaper and so on. I'm sure that's the main reason a farmer would go for something like this, rather than for saving the planet or whatever.

And my personal experience with this Oatly milk, it tastes like hay. Which makes me wonder where this demand came from.

> The likely scenario is that the submarine has failed, she either died before she could escape or the more likely scenario is that Madsen panicked, saved himself and left her behind to die.

They were looking for the submarine for hours before it showed up and sank in front of eyewitnesses. It was in the news already at that stage. I think he may have panicked when he learnt that everybody was looking for him and the woman and then sank the sub. One eyewitness saw him in the tower, then he went down into the sub, then back up, and then it sank. My guess would be that he went down and pushed the submerge button, went back up and got himself "rescued" by a passing boat.

The woman was reported missing to the police early morning when she didn't come home/was heard from the night before, so she was reported missing hours before the sub sank.

He could have dumped the body somewhere else and only sank the sub to wash away the evidence. The sub was missing for over 12 hours. Who knows how far that thing can get in that time.

Too bad these streaming survices are run by companies with unlimited money, otherwise I would hope for some big crash where only the few good ones survived. Not that I want a monopoly situation either, so... Never mind, I guess.

> If Sweden isn't part of NATO, would it be correct to call Sweden and the US allies? I don't see it.

Sweden and Finland signed a "Host Nation Support Agreement"[1] with NATO a few years ago. And there's also been previous joint military exercises with the US/NATO in Sweden, and the upcoming exercise "Aurora 17"[2].

I just got a Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 a while back, a lot of phone for not a lot of money. Anyway, it comes with MIUI, a stupid version of Android, and notifications was very rare with the default settings. You have to enable notifications per app, and then there was some sort of aggressive killing of background apps, so you wouldn't get any notification from many apps anyway since they weren't alive to send them.

Just keeping my home folder safe, everything else is up and running in less than one hour if I had to start over. Daily backups with borg backup plus a couple of git repos for the dotfiles. All the important stuff is small enough for this, my backup is like 25 gb (a lot of random crap included), and all the photos and videos we used to worry about a few years ago is up in some unlimited sized google cloud for free. Times are pretty good :)

Not ok. You need to walk in there and demand to know what you are accused of. Not "so that I won't do it again", don't say that, but because you have the right to know to be able to defend yourself.

Yeah, but there is a lot of uglyness going on with linux programs over all, where different settings and themes doesn't really help. Vivaldi looks good on it's own and has decent settings for changing the looks, thats what I like. Maybe FF is the same.

Nice, but… This is not the history update I wanted from Vivaldi. The url autocompletion is annoying. I think it goes for the sub pages I clicked my way to, that shows up the most in history, instead of just the domain and the home page. I may click myself to my facebook profile 10 times during a fb session, but I don't want to land there.

Anyway, I'm using Vivaldi on Linux because the clean looks. No ugly borders or any of the other ugly Linux things. That and tab stacking.

Swedish ISP Bahnhof used the argument that an ISP shouldn't be seen as anything else than a postal service delivering packages. So this sort of feels like they want to open your letters, scan them, and maybe throw in a few coupons on matched words. But worse.

Fun story. I ran "rm -rf ~" by mistake just the other day. A misconfigured program had created a dir named ~ inside of my home folder and I was a bit quick to type the command. No harm done because I had setup a cron to rsync everything daily as late as last weekend. Upgraded my backup solution to rsnapshot, still looking out for even better solutions. Phew!

Yay for the effort! But personally I don't think this is a good way to learn and use vim. The strength of vim is to customise it after your own needs and you'll do yourself a disservice if you end up with a config that you don't know and don't use more than x percent of.
