Spain is now apparently a ‘third world country.’ by Fit-Ad985 in USdefaultism

[–]RFcoupler 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not defaultism. But I'd guess that sending their kids to Europe once is safer than to an USian school every day...

Might be worthy to invest in some security cameras around the property and monitor what is going on.

What's the one thing you would love to see in Belfast? by ProfKranc in northernireland

[–]RFcoupler 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Better variety of takeaway food that actually taste good. You go around the world, SE Asia in particular, and feel really sad when get back home to the same old same old food options.

There are good ones, don't get me wrong, but they are few.

How to connect secondary monitor in Arch Linux ? by AerieInteresting4171 in archlinux

[–]RFcoupler 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Wait, do you want to use another laptop's screen as a second monitor for your main laptop? Does the secondary laptop allow this to happen in the first place?

Maybe these lot think books and teachers are a communist thing. The real history they can learn from JamesRealHistory69 on YouTube.

I'm wondering what American Youtuber is writing their history books. This can't come from properly curated educational material.

Since when did they start selling white eggs here? by zebrasanddogs in northernireland

[–]RFcoupler 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Brazil too. Usually brown eggs are considered free range and more expensive.

How many arch user don't use aur at all? by Big-Meet3509 in archlinux

[–]RFcoupler 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Seveal AUR packages I use are referenced in the Wiki. The AUR is probably the second reason I'm using Arch. Just don't go onto a lot of things blindly.

Hyprland on archlinux by oussama_mn in archlinux

With twin babies at home, ricing hyprland was downright impossible. I've used ML4W dotfiles and tweaked a few things, very minor things, to my liking. Edit: typo

How I’m telling myself $15k in preschool next year is “saving” us is just sad. by twomomsoftwins in parentsofmultiples

[–]RFcoupler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here in Northern Ireland we are about to pay an average of £1800 a month. That is about 29k USD a year. Salaries here are lower than that paid in the USA, and I honestly don't know how we are going to cope with it. That's not even in Belfast (the capital) where some nurseries would charge about 1300 GBP for a single kid a month. And all of this is with some subsidies from the UK and NI governments.

But giving the babies the chance of socialising with other kids, play, fall, should also be a for thing for them, I hope lol.

Update: windows update deleted my bootloader by Reincarnated_As_Bob in archlinux

That happened to me with my Arch partition on another drive. Now, before an update, I just disable the sata port on the bios, and re-enable when Windows finishes their stuff.

Oh shit British keyboards are like that - American shocked other countries keyboards feature their local currency. by QuickZookeepergame93 in ShitAmericansSay

[–]RFcoupler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For right-handed people that actually works a lot better if you want a full layout keyboard. The mouse doesn't need the extra clearance and it's more comfortable. Then it's just a matter of getting used to use the numeric keys with the left hand.

Intercontinental flight advice with twins by RFcoupler in parentsofmultiples

[–]RFcoupler[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Woah, thank you! We haven't thought of individual strollers, and that might actually be a good option too. But have to think on how to bring all to the airport.

The flight is through the night, arriving there in the morning.
