  • Over here the “biggest” suvs I regurally see are the size of VW Tiguan. I believe Volvos XC40 and XC60 are pretty popular amongst the richer crowd.

    But the most common is probably Kia Sportage. The text book example of a SUV which is engineered to look big, but it’s actually not at all and is overall a very cheap car.

    Volvo V70 used to be the most popular car over here, now we’ve all fallen for the SUV scam :(


  • Modern SUVs are actually tiny, but look big, as far as I’ve seen here in Sweden. I’ve more then once parked next to a SUV I thought was big, then as I get out of my Volvo V70 I realise it’s very often just a Kia Picanto-esque car which had been raised, given a muffin top and ridiculously big wheels.


  • It’s also a question of how where this meme was made. I’m married in my mid-late 20’s and my wife is mid 20’s, we’ve got a child and will hopefully hear that the sellers of a house accepted our bid.

    I didn’t grow up rich, she grow up in a middle class household with parents who saved an decent (as in literally decent, not decent as in a small business loan of a million dollars) sum which we will use against the down payment. We’re not rich or making astronomical sums either.

    Is lemmy US-centric/big cities-centric?




  • Today I sat down at the computer around 8:30, had lunch around 10:55 - 12:00, then at 13:00 - 14:30 I went for a walk with my wife and 6 month old son to feed ducks which he absolutely loved, and I stopped working at 16:10. Adding all that together should equal to… I don’t care. The company who bought us and ruined everything had a 1.5 hrs townhall yesterday with 880 attendees, equating to some €30k lost in man power.

    It’s not wrong, but it feels a bit like some tech articles you’ll see which are obviously just created to fluff up a CV. I wouldn’t say avyttring here is flat out wrong, just kinda… lacking.

    But yeah, /boot holds “system boot loader files”, sure, but that’s a bit vague. It should contain your kernel and initramcpio and IIRC Grub also had its config here. That’s pretty much it. I would’ve rather said /boot contains the kernel.

    “device files” it’s so vague that it’s almost wrong IMO. At first glaze I would’ve thought that it means drivers rather than, say, “interfaces to devices”

    That works. Until you get a cramp in the opposite direction and the same time. It’s the 2nd closest experience to child birth I’ve had. The closest is a cramp stretching from the inside of my foot, up the outside of my thigh, up my back. Nothing but death seems to help.

    I only have an illusion of choice because I can pick between corn flakes and chocolate cereal instead of corn flakes from a mega corp or locally produced corn flakes?

    I have been played for an absolute fool!

    (also, this is an non-issue in Sweden, which apparently is not a western country)
