I started using aeon, which comes with a specially-configured snapper integrated with systemd and the package manager, a while ago. it’s so nice to have a system that does automatic updates, has automatic rollback, and cannot be broken by using it like a normal user.
it’s not completely stable yet, but what’s there is really cool. heads up if you want to try it that it’s made to be the only os on your machine and so will wipe all partitions on the drive you install it on.
you should probably read up on water heaters.
yeah only place i know that still has gas ranges is turn-of-century buildings in stockholm. one almost set fire to my aunt.
yes, but not the same amount of electricity. without a tank there’s no heat storage to take energy from.
i don’t think those are approved for installation in buildings here. and i wouldn’t want gas in my house anyway.
doing the math, tankless heaters use insane amounts of electricity. we were gonna use one for a detached guest house so we could skip the insulated pipe, but holy shit the cabling we’d have to install
have you tried Supraland? it’s weirdly the closest thing to metroid prime i’ve played in a long time, and it’s got completely the opposite tone. it’s hilarious.
as noted in one of the steam reviews, don’t let the looks fool you. on first glance it seems to be a cheap asset flip, but it’s an extremely tightly designed game with something like 20 hours of content and almost everything is original assets. it has a mishmash of styles because it takes place in a kid’s sandbox, so the different kinds of toys don’t match eachother.
i can tell you the one that surprised me the most: Yoku’s Island Express! utterly adorable pinball metroidvania. you’re a little dung beetle pushing a big ball around to deliver mail.
i find that there is so much focus on dark and dreary in the metroidvania genre, which makes sense considering the roots of the genre. me, i get enough of that in my daily life. i want colorful and full of curiosity. the ori games are good for that too, as is supraland, but i don’t know of many more.
those costs are insane, the us one because it’s so high and the oz one for being so low. i think about 20% of our total tax revenue goes to care (health and elderly). for me that’s something like €3500.
sweden is so sparsely populated that some places have more empty houses than people. population density is about a quarter that of spain. the big cities are closer to the rest of europe, with homes going for three to four times the price of something an hour away and the rent queue being dominated by people who have been there since the 90s.
i bought a 70ish sqm apartment for about €100k two-ish hours from stockholm. in the city that would probably go for 5-20x the cost (depending on area) and have at least double the monthly cost.
as evidenced by the instance i’m on, sweden.
which of course also means that i did the normal stupid we do here and gave the amount before taxes. the take-home from that is more like €40k.
what about insurance and healthcare?
us software salaries are insanely high compared to the rest of the world, because the cost of living in SV is insanely high.
with a €60k a year salary i’m in the 90th percentile of earners in my country and it took me about two years to have enough to finance my own three-bedroom apartment on one income.
it looks just like the last two!
the question in the book is 6×9, because of course it is
…unless they’re valve games
other way around. the xbox was five years after the playstation, and used A for confirm, like nintendo’s consoles. the snes has A on the right, so the PS has O on the right. but when they released in europe, they chose to use X for confirm, which is on the bottom. so the xbox has A on the bottom.
