Firefox. Developer edition, to be specific.

The random usernames apparently come from when you sign up using other social media accounts, like Twitter, google, Facebook. For the longest time I thought it was the indicator for a bot account. Turns out it’s an indicator for bots and new-ish users.

Users do. See all the people running iOS betas on their daily drivers, then complaining about a forced reset or data loss.

I saw someone mention moonlight and sunshine, perhaps those work.

Yeah, except the US isn’t really doing any of those things. You can still own guns here in the Netherlands, you just have to be a member of a sporting organisation and be licensed and stuff. We don’t have school shootings here.

Just make the code 00000 like the nuclear launch codes were for years.

That… is a car issue in the rest of the world, considering some idiot who thinks it’s okay to do that has access to, and probably the privilege of operating such a machine.

Crikey, that’s horrible.

Lekker doen. Lijkt me zeer sterk dat ze het winnen. Ben erg blij dat de gemeente dit zooitje aanpakt, vind het bizar dat je zo laks om kan gaan met de gezondheid van je werknemers, klanten, en voorbijgangers (in zekere mate).

Seems unlikely to be honest. But in the same vain, let’s hope the firefighting planes don’t crash and cause a kerosene fire.

Wait, it’s a separate service? For me it has always been part of the garbage collection tax. You get a couple of bins and a collection schedule. If you’re unlucky, you also pay per bin emptied depending on your municipality. It’s not really a choice not to have the service, as it is part of living in the municipality you live in. Fun to learn how things that are so normal to me can be so different in other places!

It’s easy for techies like us, yeah. If we don’t want to go too advanced with the automation stuff. I wouldn’t even dare ask my mum to set up her own stuff, even if she begged me for it. It’s techie-friendly. Not user-friendly (yet).

If it’s there (and not terrible), people will use it. Will it break even on the costs? Maybe. Maybe not. Still worth it, however.

I’ve seen it plenty of times that they use chrome AND edge. Simply because some things open in edge by default and they don’t know how to, or aren’t bothered to switch it.

A modern bus on a hot day is like walking into a fridge in my country. They also look about 30 years newer than whatever I've seen when it comes to American buses, so that might help a little.

Y’all don’t have specific kitchen and/or garden waste bins? Over here we have one, along with a bin for non-recyclables and more and more often one for plastics.

Really uncreative, but: $myInitials-desktop $myInitials-server $myInitials-laptop

With my username being…. $myInitials. Surprising, really. Boring, but consistent. :)

Just don't forget that the "oo" is pronounced as the "oh" in "oh shit" and not like the "oo" in "cool" or "mood". Same for the "a" in "zak". It's closer to "ahhh" as in "oooohh and ahhh" or "pasta" than it is to the "a" in "back"

Neat! In Dutch we have azijnpisser/azijnzeiker which means the exact same thing.

It’s been pretty alright for me, actually. Both with gaming and development using WSL2.
