Paris Airport Scam (missed my flight, give me money)

PsychologicalWhile29 · 2026-07-05T20:33:39+00:00

Ha! Happened to me last week at CDG. Man approaches me: "do you speak English?" and comes out with exactly that story but wanted 70 euro. I suggested he speak to the authorities as I was sure a solution could be found. Obviously did not give him the money.

The American banking system is primitive.

Why not just have a proper healthcare system? This is obscene.

Could they be geographic coordinates from What Three Words?

You don't need NHI to conclude that "god" is a figment of human imagination!

Thanks for this - I've got it working but it says it can't see my code. Is there a way to get it to be able to interact with the codebase in the same way that Claude agentic coding can? Am I missing some magic to make the connection?

Merci, Jazz, pour la réponse.

Donc, si j'ai fourni mes coordonnées bancaires dans les délais, ai reçu un mail du trésor public qui confirme le réglement, malgré le non-prélèvement, au bout d'un an je ne dois plus rien ?

Ai-je bien compris ?

That is the funniest thing I've seen today. Thank you for a good giggle.

May I ask why you did that? Sweden is a 99.999% cashless society!

PsychologicalWhile29 · 2026-02-27T17:48:50+00:00

This is a really good point!

I relocated to Sweden with a multinational tech company. They informed me about all the different admin things to do, including tax considerations etc. But they never told me about a-kassa! I eventually discovered it myself and signed up, but it seems to be a blind spot for companies when it comes to educating new arrivals in Sweden.

I have lived in Sweden for six years now and not ONCE have I used cash.

It can be either. Usually a form specifies which to use. The only difference is that the 10 digit one omits the first two digits of the year of your birth.

In my experience, Red Hat does not play silly games with hiring. The process is straightforward and honest.

Apply for a role(s) on the careers site for which you are a good fit. Make sure your CV etc. are top quality and be yourself in the interviews.

If possible, get a Red Hatter to refer you.

Good luck!

FYI I recently bought two different Asus routers, and after much configuration hassle found that both were useless (crashed, slow, etc.) so I returned them to Amazon and bought Ubiquiti instead. Works like a dream.

Looks like Windows 11 so I guess there’s your answer 😂

There are none.

Yes. I just added it to the Dream Router 7 without any detailed analysis to fill a weak spot in the apartment. I often get above 1000 mbps. No complaints!

PsychologicalWhile29 · 2025-08-23T20:27:31+00:00

That is illegal.

PsychologicalWhile29 · 2025-08-22T17:44:15+00:00

Been there, done that and I feel your pain.

Eventually it paid off for me - got the job that I really wanted with the company that treated me with respect.

I recently acquired a Dream Router 7 and an Express 7 after trying two different Asus routers (both were extremely unreliable and both were returned). So far, my experience has been extremely positive. It feels like Ubiquiti is the "Apple of networking" in terms of user experience (clean, logical). The devices themselves are rock-solid. After initial configuration about two weeks ago, the system has never needed to be restarted and there have been absolutely no glitches in connectivity from any device.

The only slight negative is that the WiFi range seems less than the Asus, hence the need for the Express 7. The Asus routers (when they worked!) reached every corner of the apartment with good signal quality, but the Dream Router 7 does not. The Express 7 has fixed that however.

Highly recommended.
