  • I live in Denmark, here the chargers are placed where people park anyway. Grocery stores, parking lots, rest stops…

    It’s getting so easy to find a fast charger/resto combo, that we don’t even plan it from home.

    I’ve seen few 200+ watts chargers without looking for them, but the car is ready faster than I am anyway.

    1. I don’t have enough charge for my trip. I’m also thirsty.

    2. I go to a grocery store with a fast charger.

    3. I buy a drink.

    4. I have enough charge.

    If it’s a long trip where I need more charge, I choose a car snack, and I’ll have enough.

    If I’m on an actual long car trip and I want to charge all the way from the warning light to 100%, I will need to eat a meal anyway. I just find a McDonald’s/cafe,/restaurant/whatever with a fast charger, and it’ll be full before I’m done.

    But finding a store/eating place with a fast charger is still waaaay less convenient than just finding a place where I can get diesel in seconds, and find a different place to get drinks/food/snacks.


  • Because it draws those “pixels” as the signal reaches the monitor. When half of a frame is transmitted to a CRT monitor, it’s basically half way done making it visible.

    An LCD monitor needs to wait for the entire frame to arrive, before it can be processed and then made visible.

    Sometimes the monitor will wait for several frames to arrive before it processes them. This enables some temporal processing. When you put a monitor in gaming mode, it disables (some of) this.



  • When I was in Denmark I was shocked how many cameras there were, everywhere. I mean not just in the city, but everywhere on the countrywide.

    I’ve lived in Denmark for decades. The only cameras I see are basically surveillance cameras in stores etc and speed cameras. I see more cameras in most other countries I go to.

    We have nothing compared to fx. London.

    Where did you see cameras?

    Denmark is one of those weird countries where its illegal to have your map software tell you where the speed cameras are.

    That’s not correct. You can even buy gadgets for this in many stores.





  • I live in Denmark, Europe. One Bic Mac meal is 9.39 USD incl taxes.

    The minimum salary in McDonals is around 3500 USD per month for a standard 37 hr/week, including pension.

    This is every month, not affected by holidays, sick leave, paid vacation… It comes with 5 or 6 weeks of paid vacation per year, and virtually unlimited sick leave.

    Yeah, I also don’t understand why McDonald’s says they can’t raise salaries or improve working conditions, because it will make the price go up. So why is it expensive now?

    (Yes, taxes are high here. But we also have a lot of stuff that is tax paid, that evens it out somewhat.)


  • vi bliver nødt til at sørge for, at vi alle har samme muligheder

    Har vi ikke det?

    Enhver medarbejder kan sygemelde sig med stress, med fuld løn. Derefter kan de vælge at udtale sig offentligt om hvad der stresser dem, eller lade være. Enhver som udtaler sig om grund til sygdom, risikerer at blive nedgjort af folk der er uenige.

    Og når man kommer tilbage til jobbet er der en større risiko end normalt, for at miste jobbet af helt urelaterede årsager.

    “Barely ever”? Isn’t that enough?

    My car can drive 4 people and their luggage. I need that every time my family goes anywhere.

    But usually it’s just me and my laptop bag, maybe a couple of grocery bags.

    So I’m that guy. Big car, rarely filled to capacity. What do you suggest I do? Buy two cars to reduce waste?

    (Although mine is not an American pickup, it’s a European station car. If that changes anything.)




  • Are you seriously saying that the customer who pays full price and no more is “a piece of shit”, and not management who chooses to underpay the staff?

    I’m not having any of that. I’d rather just not eat out. Enjoy no tip AND one less customer.

    I’ll pay extra when I get extra. I paid over 150% yesterday. I’ve given big tips for free services. People sometimes give my cash tip back assuming I accidentally gave them 10x my intention. But not when it’s a simple transaction when I get what I ordered and I’m paying the advertised price.




  • det kræver jo at man ansætter 1/5 (ell. Noget) mere, siden der så er færre arbejdere.

    Det kommer virkelig an på så meget.

    I mit arbejde er jeg i perioder primært kreativ. Jeg tror på at jeg kan levere præcist den samme mængde kreative ideer på 30 og 37 timer.

    Men selv når jeg ikke er kreativ, så er der grænser hvor meget jeg kan arbejde fokuseret. Det ville ikke overraske mig hvis jeg var ca lige så produktiv hvis jeg gik ned på 30 timer om ugen, uanset om det er fordelt på 4 eller 5 dage.

    På den anden side, så har jeg også haft jobs hvor hver time var ca lige produktiv, og færre timer ganske enkelt var proportionelt reduceret produktivitet.
