If it’s the UK it’s cheaper to meet in a random ass village in Lapland. (Or Mallorca).

Why is everyone suggesting ventoy and stuff and no one is telling you to just reformat drives you no longer need? Or are they all live OSs in use? Am I missing something?
Eh going the extra mile is how I got so burned out I had to quit a job for the sake of my physical and mental health.
Did I get promoted? Hell no. Never did. The boss’s wife sure did though.
Yes I’m aware you said balance but I just had to share why I’m currently trying not to care anymore. Note I said trying, I’m really terrible at not giving everything to every project I’m in.
Regardless of other measures why do countries implement golden visas for real estate purchasers? Portugal has been doing it for disastrous effects.
Not American but doesn’t central America get cold as fuck at night? I would assume that’s what cowboys dressed for since you can always remove clothes but you can’t exactly create them from thin air at night.
I haven’t read harry potter for 20 years, got totally burned out before finishing the series and as you can imagine 14 year old me wasn’t exactly very aware of trans issues but here’s a few even my thick headed teenage brain found weird:
Bankers are basically jewish caricatures - short goblins with long noses that only care about money
Weird slavery message where Hermione is proven wrong for wanting to free the elves as a lot of them are happy with servitude
Every foreign character is a weird stereotype. I think there was even a Korean character with a chinese name like Chong? There was clearly no concern for portraying anything correctly, just a weak attempt to increase diversity with no effort I guess
There were also a few weird things adjacent to harry potter like how every major character is basically described as alabaster white and she later attempted to hide her bias by saying “I never explicitly said that X was white”. Lady, you literally wrote that Hermione was a pale redhead in dozens if not hundreds of pages. I don’t care if she’s played by a 4 inch tall blue alien, just own up to it and stop gaslighting people.
Also, not a big deal but it always felt weird to me that even the nominally poor family lived a life of luxury. I could tell the person writing never truly knew hardship from the way she wrote the Weasleys. I can’t say I have much experience myself but it felt strange how they kept saying a clearly upper middle class family was destitute and made fun of.
This is 100% valid when dealing with code generation sometimes and I hate it
You want the EU to stop funding a shitload of games like they’ve done for decades? Weird take but ok?
It’s a bit complex. IIRC He sold the rights of making games to a tiny indie company and then CDProjekt bought the company and made the much elaborate Witcher 1.
I live in Finland and used to live in Portugal. Trust me, you don’t need to go so far north. Half the year you don’t want to go out because of how cold it is. The novelty wears out fast!
Germany was pretty good but alas, hard to find work that pays well enough with the horrible housing situation.
Where do you work if I may ask? Every game company I worked at was pretty much set in their ways and I’d love to have an excuse to use rust professionally!
My weird “paranormal” quirk is knowing when someone is sick by smell. My nose is usually blocked up and I can barely smell flowers but for some reason I can just tell when someone is incubating some sickness that will make them bedridden the next day.
No idea how it works. I just smell “sick” - it’s kind of this warm earthy ground smell. I can even smell it on myself sometimes and I’ll know I need to take a day off tomorrow. My theory is I can smell something off in the skin temperature.
