That toddler really threw me off. So my five year olds are not toddlers, just kids?

Worked the first six years of my career using no version history tracking or backups at all on one of our main systems. Nobody knew we didn't have backups and I didn't know how to use git and figured it wasn't so important since I was maintaining it alone anyway.

(I don't do any of those things anymore)

Tell me more about the .NET fiasco of 2021?

We have a bunch of them for our toddlers. It's some of the only toys we cannot find on the used market. Only ads for people who want to buy them appears when we search for them.

I don't understand how that is possible. I switch which genres I am mostly into several times a year. I wish I could be one of those die hard fans that stick to the same stuff year in and year out. It seems so peaceful.

Radiohead is one of those bands that evolve their sound a lot, so it is not so weird that you mostly enjoy just a few of their albums.

That said ok computer and its spiritual successor in rainbows are those albums for me.

Also Thom Yorkes track suspirium from the suspiria soundtrack album is one of those songs I cannot stop listening to. That track is often played three times in a row for me.

Yeah, not letting go of our social securities. Our political partiets are slowly shifting rightwards though. So those services are getting shittier. Our hospitals are for some reason supposed to not lose money now. Free healthcare, but at a budget.

You can drink the tap water everywhere here. So if you ask for water at a restaurant that's what you get and it will be free of charge. Some outdoor concert venues only keep bottled water and charge for it. That is considered a dick move.

Free chips and salsa? What is this sourcery? Also a Virgin cocktail would be 5 us dollars at least over here.

I was a casual /b/tard around that time. I never saw CP, luckily, or maybe I just skipped those threads by reflex, but a lot of gore went by. There was a lot of fun image macros and stuff. Bur after a while I dropped out of it. I think it was about the same time I got really addicted to stumbleupon. Stumbleupon was my first tailored algorithm and my dopamine receptors haven't been the same since.
