I've watched The Man Without a Past several times, and I find it really interesting how the experience varies depending on the setting.

The first time I saw it in a packed theater, and we were all laughing the whole time. As soon as someone let out a chuckle we were all laughing out loud, like a real life laugh track.

Watching it with two friends at home was less laughing out loud and more chuckling and talking about how weird a movie this is.

Both experiences were enjoyable in their own ways, just different.

If I was to name a polar opposite of a Chris Tucker comedy it would be this film.

If you want to hear Finnish you could try Rare Exports or The Man Without a Past

Ubiquity is a US company, but all their stuff is made in Asia.

Linksys is a US company formerly owned by Cisco, but all their stuff is manufactured in Asia.

Netgear is a US company, but all their stuff is manufactured in Asia.

ASUS is Taiwanese.

I guess the router supplied by your ISP might be exempt?

If you just run the command you ran initially it will print out the packages it wants to pull in. You can then cancel it and install whichever subset you choose manually.

Have they ever had a Gripen within missile range?

Sounds like you're doing it the Rocky Bottom Way

I'm sure Norway is crying all the way to the bank. It's hard work hauling all that oil and fertilizer money.

I kind of miss Perl, and still write it sometimes. More often than not I end up with python, though, due to the built-in json parser. Everything is json or yaml these days.

If you're a birthright citizen, why would you be proud over something you did nothing to achieve? It's also not your fault, so there's nothing to be ashamed of either.

It shakes out a little differently if you're naturalized, but only marginally. That naturalization test isn't much of a barrier.

Maybe I didn't scroll far enough, but it looks a lot like all the top lemmy posts are about Lemmy or about how Reddit sucks.

Just don't promise a pizza party and fail to deliver! That happened at my job once, and people did not like it.

Either of those within earshot from my desk and I'm not taking the job.
