They should’ve renamed the movie to “Speedo Pedo”.
Then you have lost control of your life and shortcuts are the least of your problems.
Summertime hours reduction (from 35 to 32 hours).
lol these are my regular hours (webdev in Germany with a 4-day work week)
KDE. Been using it since v3, tried various other systems like Gnome, Enlightenment, XFCE etc. and I’ve always been coming back to it. KDE just feels very intuitive and easy to use.
Sehr gut.
I turned that shit off after 30 minutes, it was so bad. :D Most regrettable purchase of my life.
When I was in my 20’s, I always gave 200% at the jobs I worked at. I was young and naive and believed I would eventually be rewarded for all the hard work I put in, even on weekends and night shifts.
Then I got burnout, because I was working at a pace my body just couldn’t sustain anymore.
It changed my life drastically. I learned to value my health and free time and to prioritize that over the needs of my employer. I learned that hard work doesn’t neccessarily bring you any benefits, it mostly benefits your employer. I also learned that nobody cares when your health is fucked up - for your employer, you’re just a cog in the machine that can be replaced.
Nowadays I only work four days a week and I don’t give a shit about what happens on Fridays anymore. Server is down? Not my problem, get someone else to fix it.
I also learned to stand up for myself. I’m not getting paid like a monkey anymore and if you promise me a raise and then pretend like that never happened afterwards, you’ll have my resignation on your desk, printed out by the company printer right in front of you.
The biggest part of my childhood was Shadow Man. It was the first game I ever played that built a big world to explore with excellent narration and a good sense of progress. It felt rewarding to finally play all the way through to the end after many months. Some of the levels and music gave me nightmares as a child, but it was worth it.
I enjoyed a lot of story-driven games since then, but this one will always have a special place in my heart. It’s so cool that NightDive remastered it recently.
It’ll probably be a brick in a few months, when the company goes bankrupt and the servers it relies on get shut down. So even getting it for free would be too expensive.
