  • You clearly havent heard of swedish trains.

    The railroad here is a bad joke at this point, mainly due to shutting down the organization that was responsible for maintainence and shoving it into another agency that has no clue. As a bonus the new agency doesn’t even do the repair work themselves but hires contractors at the lowest bidder. So stuff breaks constantly, which causes delays.

    At this point just getting the rail network to “normal” standards would cost billions. Let alone expanding it to cope with current traffic levels.


  • Logitech, razer and corsair has all worked for me. Of those the razer trinity was probably the best and the logitech g600 i use now is good as well. Input-remapper can remap them no problem. The G600 has a weird issue with piper DPI settings being a bit weird at random on reboot in that the vertical dpi tends to get set way higher than the horizontal and you have to reload the settings in piper for it to work properly. When it comes to the software the corsair one i had was the best as ckb-next could handle everything including the keybinds. The hardware on that mouse was crap though and the scroll wheel died after like 5 months.



  • This one is especially fun on windows 11 home. At least it was some time ago on some machine i worked on. Since home doesn’t have the bitlocker settings fully you cannot disable bitlocker encryption. It would also auto enable sometimes even if you don’t have a microsoft account, which means it doesn’t back the key up anywhere. Not sure it does that anymore, i hope not, but i expect a lot of people to lose their data to this crap in the future.

    In either case at least i find that full disk encryption on most machines is just overkill as it only really protects in the scenario the device is stolen and someone tries to pull data off of it that way. But in the vast majority of cases when people get their data stolen its done with malware, which disk encryption does /nothing/ to prevent.
