Taxi from Copenhagen Airport to Malmö - Lemmy.World

Hi everyone! I’m moving to Malmö soon for the first time and I’ll be landing at CPH airport. I’ll be requiring a taxi from CPH to central Malmö since I will have 3 suitcases. I’ve looked around and most suggestions are to take the Øresundståg; however, with my large amount of luggage I will have, I cannot take it. I’ve also seen that Uber doesn’t work in Denmark due to laws. My question is: are there any reliable & possibly cheap taxi services that I could use. Many thanks in advance.

Do you use "mould" or "mold"? - Lemmy.World

I’ve always thought that mold is the fungus, and to mould is to shape. When talking about it with my colleagues yesterday, I was surprised that this isn’t common. Most people use one of the two spellings to refer to both. Doing a quick search on duckduckgo also confirms that: - mould is the British [https://www.thefreedictionary.com/Mould] spelling referring both meanings. - mold is the american [https://www.thefreedictionary.com/mold] spelling referring to both meanings. In my quest to prove them wrong, I was surprised at how wrong I was… until I discovered a few people on the internet who said the same thing: - https://english.stackexchange.com/a/169920 [https://english.stackexchange.com/a/169920] - https://english.stackexchange.com/a/172089 [https://english.stackexchange.com/a/172089] - https://english.stackexchange.com/a/139605 [https://english.stackexchange.com/a/139605] - https://old.reddit.com/r/confidentlyincorrect/comments/18sx2l0/mold_vs_mould_doubled_down/kfaa6nj/ [https://old.reddit.com/r/confidentlyincorrect/comments/18sx2l0/mold_vs_mould_doubled_down/kfaa6nj/] - https://old.reddit.com/r/confidentlyincorrect/comments/18sx2l0/mold_vs_mould_doubled_down/kfcio12/ [https://old.reddit.com/r/confidentlyincorrect/comments/18sx2l0/mold_vs_mould_doubled_down/kfcio12/] - https://old.reddit.com/r/confidentlyincorrect/comments/18sx2l0/mold_vs_mould_doubled_down/kfet3jz/ [https://old.reddit.com/r/confidentlyincorrect/comments/18sx2l0/mold_vs_mould_doubled_down/kfet3jz/] I’m not looking for what’s correct or incorrect anymore, I just find it very fascinating that there are some people who use the words similarly to me, but the vast majority of others who use it in a different way. So: what’s the difference between mould and mold according to you?

Arch users trying to print files - Lemmy.World

Mcafee accidentally made users call the devs of SQLite and complain. - Lemmy.World

via: @[email protected] https://wetdry.world/@memes/112717700557038278 [https://wetdry.world/@memes/112717700557038278] > the sqlite codebase is a gem. > > tldr; mcaffee made a shit ton of sqlite files in the temp folder causing people to call the sqlite devs phone angrily. now they name all files etilqs to prevent this. Text from the screenshot: > 2006-10-31: The default prefix used to be “sqlite_”. But then Mcafee started using SQLite in their anti-virus product and it started putting files with the “sqlite” name in the c:/temp folder. This annoyed many windows users. Those users would then do a Google search for “sqlite”, find the telephone numbers of the developers and call to wake them up at night and complain. For this reason, the default name prefix is changed to be “sqlite” spelled backwards. So the temp files are still identified, but anybody smart enough to figure out the code is also likely smart enough to know that calling the developer will not help get rid of the file. Code found at: https://github.com/sqlite/sqlite/blob/master/src/os.h#L65 [https://github.com/sqlite/sqlite/blob/master/src/os.h#L65] (The line numbers in the screenshot and the code don’t match up)

How System Requests Work and How to Add Your Own SysReq - Lemmy.World

> I needed to add a custom System Request [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/System_request] (Sys Req or SysRq) to a linux kernel some time ago. While doing so, I dug deep into how it works and I thought I’d make a quick post about it. Here is a good SuperUser [https://superuser.com/a/1511644] answer about what a SysRq is. You may also know about SysRq via REISUB [https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Keyboard_shortcuts#Rebooting]. This post has three parts: how to raise a SysRq, how SysRq works (looking into kernel code), and how to add your own SysRq. Disclaimer: This is my website.

Slightly less than two drinks = positive effect on programming ability - Lemmy.World

https://arxiv.org/abs/2404.10002 [https://arxiv.org/abs/2404.10002] Abstract (emphasis mine): > The concept of a ‘Ballmer Peak’ was first proposed in 2007, postulating that there exists a very specific blood alcohol content which confers superhuman programming ability. More generally, there is a commonly held belief among software engineers that coding is easier and more productive after a few drinks. Using the industry standard for assessment of coding ability, we conducted a search for such a peak and more generally investigated the effect of different amounts of alcohol on performance. We conclusively refute the existence of a specific peak with large magnitude, but with p < 0.001 find that there was a significant positive effect to a low amount of alcohol - slightly less than two drinks - on programming ability.

Nature Valley: 10 bars in 5 packs - Lemmy.World

I was in a rush and I needed to pick up a quick snack that I could eat during class. I chose these Nature Valley bars which said they had ten bars inside. What I failed to notice is the tiny print at the bottom where it says 5 x 2, i.e., 5 packets with two bars. Lo and behold when I open a pack during a break, I find two bars inside. I didn’t want to eat two bars, just one. You can’t even just leave the other fucking bar inside because they create so MANY crumbs. How the fuck are you supposed to seal it??? Stupid-ass deceptive printing got the better of me. It’s not the end of the world, just mildly infuriating.
