  • Checking my blocklist makes me wish communities could be blocked on category.

    It's mostly football, F1, sports, anime, porn but also star trek.

  • I have different folders for different genres, then subdivided in folders for year of release.

    I spent way too much time organizing this way back so I stick with it. Problems with this are that genes can overlap (could be fixed with symlinks?) and the year is something you often have to look up (id3 often shows year of the album which is not always the year it came out).

  • It syncs on your local network only as far as I know, if that's not a problem it should work mostly the same. You can set it up to sync only in one direction.

  • I tried Amaze, it's OK but it annoys me how huge the list items are. I have to scroll through a folder that only takes half the screen in TC.

  • Syncthing automatically synchronizes folders, so it updates and deleted where necessary. With KDE Connect you can also send files, but it's not automatic and it doesn't synchronize.

  • Or use Consent-o-matic to not accept cookies

  • Total Commander - pretty much essential to have a file manager.

    Kde Connect obviously.

    Tracker Control to block ads, trackers.

    Syncthing if you want to synchronize files between devices, good for backups and photos.

  • Small and windy. I would guess the higher temperatures are measured more inland.

  • Czechs are kind of known for being cold and distant. It's a lonely place to live. I just went on a holiday and people could be so friendly and chatty in some other countries, at least reassuring me that it's not me who's the problem.

    Brits and Germans are definitely friendlier and more sociable than Czechs (or Dutch) but the real chatty ones are down South, around the Mediterranean.

  • I really doubt that.

  • Czechia. In many supermarkets "discounts" only apply when you have a card/app. Essentially the "discount" is normal price, otherwise you'll pay nearly double.

  • I worked in Lisbon for a while. Salary after tax was 700 EUR and a (very tiny shared) room was provided but I couldn't afford my own place. Now I'm in Prague and although I live very, very small, at least rent is "only" half of after-tax salary.

    So more of a crisis in one place than another, but it would've been nice if something more than just a one-bedroom apartment would still be achieveable.

  • I'm using fake names on all those things, but prices without loyalty are often insane. It's basically an extra tourist tax.

  • I rarely use cash. Nearly everything I spend is on supermarket and they know exactly what I buy because we're forced to use their "loyalty" programs anyway.

    Then traveling: dealing with other currencies, coming home with unspendable money. And there's no interest on cash lying around.

    But I hate the tendency for places to not accept cash at all, there should still be a choice.

    One bonus is that I keep finding money on the streets in countries that love cash.

  • A Dutch joke?

    (keurig = neat, decent, proper)

  • I haven't used it in a while but Aeroinsta was good and probably safe (despite their shady website). Gets rid of unnecessary stuff like ads and allows downloading.

  • Privacy.com in Europe?

    Jump
  • Depends where you go. My Czech bank card is a debit card with a number on it that you can use like a credit card. Dutch banks don't have this and we use different online payment methods. I never really needed a credit card for anything (until I traveled in France) so the price to have one is not worth it.
