I speak Swedish from Finland. Similar variation as Sweden's Eurovision entry.

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.

I have a storagebox at hetzner. My script does:

• Mount the storagebox over sshfs with public key file
• Mount a gocryptfs folder, with supplied key on local file
• Rsync my stuff to the encrypted folder
• Unmounts in reverse order

I can access the storagebox by password, too. So this is my disaster recovery in case my house burns down with all my devices. I'll just buy another laptop the next day, and me and the Mrs can admire all my code and our wedding videos within a few hours.

Just be mindful that some manufacturers do the extremely shitty thing of placing the socket on the headphones in a very specifically shaped recess that only their cables will fit.

That sounds like a good idea, actually. A lot of those adapters/cables are bastardisations of the USB-C standard, and just re-use a couple of pins to pass on analog audio. I've seen at least three variations of it. If it's not standard, it should not be possible to plug it in to any standard socket.

The right way to do it is with a proper digital-to-analog converter in the adapter. I hope that's the most common way today, but I haven't shopped around in recent years.

Get your own domain. Don't host your own.

I've had the same domain on gmail, proton and now purelymail.

I always say that thinking before speaking is a bit like wiping before going number two.

Maybe that's why I don't have any friends.

So they need more boots on the ground? I have boots.

I'm a bit torn.

I want there to be diversity and free choice regarding where I get my apps from, so one less choice only strengthens Google's monopoly.

As a user, Amazon's app store was just sketchy.

As a developer I don't want to be submitting every update to yet another store for every release. I have had users mail me and ask to add my app to the Amazon app store, because their device didn't come with Google's play store.

I usually don't use one for browsing, and not for privacy reasons.

I have a wireguard hub-and-spoke configuration with my VPS as hub to

• Let my VPS act as a reverse proxy to my home servers
• Not have to expose ssh on my VPS to the public internet
• Easily reach all my home servers when I travel
• Route traffic through my VPS when I'm on sketchy open WiFi. Which is when I've encountered OP's sign-in requirement.

Happens to me only when I use my VPN.
