Linux has its own weird implicit copy paste on the mouse - pressing the wheel pastes the last thing you selected.

It depends though - if you're copy pasting between programs, you're probably using your mouse already, so it's good that the buttons are there. But if you're writing or editing text, you probably have your hands on the keyboard, so you need the shortcut there as well.

My kids use my account.

So mine is a quarter space, a quarter MTG, and half Minecraft.

I have worked as an early employee at a startup that was then successfully acquired. In my experience it was great, although I think it did not match the situation at most startups. I think there were six people when I started working for them, as a freelancer at first, and then eventually we grew to about 15 and I joined full time.

I did not get any stock, I was 100% remote (I live in Europe and the company was in the US, I never even met any of my bosses or coworkers), and I never worked long hours.

It was also early in my career. I started as a freelancer, and this was my highest paying job until then, so I gladly took it. The work was hard (low-level and high-performance stuff), but as I said, I did not have to work over 40 hours per week. I did have meetings in the late afternoon though, and sometimes in the evenings, because of my time zone.

After we got acquired, I told them that because I didn't hold any stock, I still wanted some payout, so they roughly doubled my salary. The work also became more corporate and there was less of the hard but interesting stuff. Eventually I left when the company that acquired us was itself acquired, and now I work for another established company for even more money.

TL;DR: the startup was acquired, I did not get a payout but it launched my career so I'm very happy I was involved.

It is quite different. I don't speak either, but when watching Servant of the People, I could pick up a lot of words in Russian, as they were similar to Slovenian. When they started speaking Ukrainian, I couldn't understand anything. Even the show makes a plot point of this, when they invite the wrong Korea because the words for north and south are different.

More vulnerable, probably yes. Phones are very locked down and secured (unless you root or install custom firmware).

But, they are still worse for privacy due to how they're used. The phone (and thus Google and Apple and Facebook and others) has access to your location all the time - your computer doesn't. The computer is only vulnerable when on - the phone is always on.

The threats are different and from different sources. Random hackers mining shitcoins on your computer, big companies knowing what you're doing when you carry your phone.

This is about light rail though, which is usually built in cities (or, at least between a city and its suburbs). So I wonder how much of the cost (for both rail and road) is for land rights.

Ah, those little boxes. They appear where two sections of a long underground cable meet. I wouldn't call it a bug, it's very realistic for underground cables to have access points for maintenance etc.

Ink for the ink god, drivers for the driver throne.

That would be in every thread, from the most pro-communism to the most anti-communism threads.

What do you mean by dents? Can you share a screenshot?

No we're not, you're just in the blue zone. Us greens are quite happy.

Ok, thanks. I totally get the massive debts and his name being a liability (at least to the people who have enough money to buy what he's selling).
