  • I did so at the start of 2025. It was meant mostly as an experiment, to see what I needed before switching permanently. But I kinda just kept going. I think I’ve booted windows like 2 or 3 times across the year to get something off of it or to run test something that didn’t work on Linux. I’m kinda considering to just wipe it, or wipe it and install it on a separate partition so it can’t mess with shit anymore. Maybe put it on an old disk in my spare parts PC (if that is possible with the TPM bullshit) to isolate it further.

    I can open your link, but as someone who’s Dutch, the way this all works in English is so absurd. Here we call Germany “Duitsland” and they speak “Duits”. This is quite similar to what they say themselves, “Deutschland” and “Deutsch”. We call our country “Nederland” and our language “Nederlands”. This is again similar in German.

    Then why is English “Germany”, “German” and “Holland”/“The Netherlands” and “Dutch”. It’s so silly. There are of course historic reasons, but can’t we all just collectively change it?




  • I’m sorry, but men’s 6 in 1 soap sucks ass. The moment I tried shampoo and conditioner for women, my (at the time short) hair got way better and I never looked back. Now that I have long hair I’m not even going to consider washing with the hair destroyer 2000 again. The image is wrong, the “conditional soap” is way better because it’s not just soap.





  • Haha. The video is a bit pessimistic tho, I know people who work at companies with Haskell running in production (who are happy with it). Personally I have used monads, and I’ve wished for their functionality in other languages like Java, but I couldn’t reasonably explain what they are.

    Also, as someone who know just about enough German to understand some of what they’re saying, it’s always quite hard to follow these videos. My brain doesn’t understand it when it hears “Das war ein Befehl!” and the subtitles ramble on about something completely different









  • Yeah this. I never really cared for them, and tbh a lot of those reaction videos are very over the top or fake. But I kinda latched onto the more grounded ones this year. It allows me to rewatch some of my favorite content “with others”. Obviously it’s not as good as doing so with friends, but getting friends to watch all this content is kinda hard. If they care, they’ve probably already seen it or it’s just very hard to plan something like this. And if they don’t care then watching together won’t be fun anyway.

    Last year has been quite stressful and sometimes I just need some “mental fastfood”. Reaction content is that. There’s no stress, I know exactly what will happen when. There’s just the joy of seeing someone else watch or play something awesome for the first time. It kinda makes it feel like I’m seeing it for the first time with them. And some of these people actually see or know things that I wasn’t aware of when watching. Or they come up with interesting theories about what’s gonna happen next.
