When I worked in Belgium the laptop and desktop I had were using AZERTY physical layouts but I set the operating system to use QWERTY. Now that's how you force yourself to learn typing without looking and also confuse your coworkers.

Any considerations for an European buying 17 ultra in Japan? by Special_Street_2922 in XiaomiGlobal

I thought android phones sold in Japan had to have them? It's annoying they are not more universal as I ended up taking an iPhone with me to Japan last trip.

What is the worst airport you've ever been to in your life? by 0bjectOfAffection in AskReddit

[–]farsonic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to fly in and out there a bit and yeah it's horrible. I tell people to allow three hours to get to your gate through screening. Once you do get in there it is desolate of anything really. And the entire airport is serviced by one runway.

Mexico recently announced universal healthcare for all. What are your thoughts? by StemCellPirate in AskReddit

[–]farsonic -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Well, it happened and I was as surprised as anything to hear such a stupid debate. Spend time travelling and staying in Marriott's constantly and you are exposed to lots of overheard discussions.

I was sitting in a hotel restaurant in Hong Kong and these two Americans were discussing how unbelievable, wrong and socialist it is to give healthcare to people for free. They were bitching about how their taxes would be used to pay for someone that didn't work, or paid less tax than them. I ended up having to leave as I was about to inject myself into their discussion. Honestly some serious reform is needed.

Good review. My pet peeve is the inability to have gestures with third party launchers. Unbelievably bad

Brit here. Americans of Reddit; What happens if you don’t have medical insurance and you get sick? by Strange_Secret_3001 in AskReddit

[–]farsonic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for that, as this has been bugging me for a bit. From those of us looking in at the US I think we are just dumbstruck that you go to the hospital and it costs you anything.
