Am I the only one that thinks we should have dedicated buttons for copy/paste on keyboards? in c/asklemmy

Is it "Emacs pinky" possibly? Emacs is an editor with hotkeys for just about everything and a lot are based on CTRL.

I've gotten used to using an Emacs layout and eventually my pinky started to ache too bad so I remapped caps lock to be control and everything is much more comfortable now.

I hate trucks and SUVs with a passion, but I don't really get the hate here. I could barely fit two Billys in my 2015 Volvo V70, or our new kitchen table and chairs because it was too wide.

I'll be installing a trailer hitch ASAP when we move because a trailer is always superior to trucks.

I think you're reading their comment too literally. I think it's meant as a joke that the stick is nearing its "EOL", not the person holding it, but they're wilfully misinterpreting it.

Let's say I get sick

Day 1: 0% pay Day 2-14: 80% pay from my employer

Day 15-90: "barely" 80% from Försäkringskassan, up to a relatively low ceiling (disfavours those with high incomes, doesn't really affect the common worker). With a collective agreement from a union you could also get an additional 10-15%(?) from your employer

Day 90-: pretty much the same, the 10% from the employer is replaced by insurance instead. If you're sick this long it'll be a bit of a bureaucratic PITA

Or because you forgot one very crucial part?

I had that happen to me as a junior. The other seniors weren't even able to help, so in the end nothing was done. IIRC it was an old python app which the OG author explained the nonsense logic of, but not how to actually run it, or vice versa. Either who the whole project was fucked up

As a new father myself, enjoying a long 6w long paid leave, can't help but to think S W E D E N, S W E D E N, S W E D E N. With that said, I definitely agree. We didn't have to consider any of those points as we decided to have our child, only if we as individuals were ready.

Being European, this is very relatable. Everywhere I turn it's all just US politics.
