and even tennis.

Tennis?! Not even Serena Williams believes that:

"Andy Murray has been joking about myself and him playing a match. I'm like, 'Seriously? Are you kidding me?' Men's tennis and women's tennis are two completely different sports," Serena Williams said. "If I were to play him, I'd lose 6-0, 6-0 within 10 minutes. Men are a lot faster, they serve and hit harder. It's a different game."

The server is used for hole punching, to open up a P2P connection thorugh NATs and Firewalls. If it doesn't work the server also relays the traffic between the clients.

Getting an end to end connection through todays internet is unfortunately not easy for an average user.

Archery and Blacksmithing seem cool, but like quite a small niche

The random callout of the Dutch is pretty funny. Dodged a bullet there.

I’m in the state of Georgia: no provision for breaks are given at all.

Oh man that's brutal.

I used to live in the UK: I think the rule was employers are required to give 30 mins per 10 hours worked, cannot be in the first or last hour.

Yeah here in Switzerland it's similar to the UK rule. Any shift longer than 6 hours needs to be interrupted by an unpaid but uninterrupted break of at least 30min for eating, such that there isn't more than a 6 hour continuous work period on either side of the break, IIRC.

Our standard for full-time employment is 8.4h per day. (That's a bit high in comparison to neighboring countries). It's very usual that you get your eating break somewhere between 11:30-13:30 o'clock, maybe on rotation with coworkers if you need to keep the phones staffed.

In my office job we all go together from around 11:45 to 12:45.

Is a proper meal period with rest not guaranteed by law?

Or is it, but it's hard to fight for it because the workplace culture is shaped differently?

My entire company of 150 people here in Switzerland in Zürich has 11 parking spaces, one is reserved for the CEO, who doesn't even use it often, three are rented by other C-suite members, five are for visitors or the occasional internal reservation, and two hold our bike racks.

But you really have to be masocistic to even want to drive in Zürich during the commuting times. Right in front of our office there is an train station for a local train line right under the river, and on the side of our block there is a tram station. Or you can walk to the main station in 10 minutes. I usually bike home though, it's half an hour and at least somewhat counteracts my sedentary lifestyle.

One instance of accidental artillery fire too, 5 training grenades detonated over Malbun, luckily without victims.

And a big ass firestorm caused by rocket training during strong Föhn winds, but again no people were hurt, and we ended up paying them back for the destroyed forest at least. That kind of training is now forbidden during strong winds.

It did not simply analyze the best type of graphics card for the situation.

Yes it certainly didn't: It's a large language model, not some sort of knowledge engine. It can't analyze anything, it only generates likely text strings. I think this is still fundamentally misunderstood widely.

Okay, sorry, I didn't realize this wasn't a scheduled surgery, I only read the German article from the comments.

Yes there is the concept of implied consent for those cases where a patient can't make his will known. But in those cases you have to act along the presumed will of the patient. That will of the patient would regularily be presumed to contain the lege artis, at least in a setting where the hospital has been reached already and the option was available. So that again precludes untrained people participating in my view.

Using modern UEFI booting with a 1GB shared ESP and grub2 has worked just fine for me in the last 8 years. os-prober has always just found the Windows install and generated the necessary boot entry for grub. Windows has never trespassed into the Fedora or Ubuntu folder of the ESP as far as I can tell.
