• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Yesterday in Kroger (a supermarket for you non-Americans) I saw a bunch of cans of potato salad. Why would someone buy canned potato salad?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I like both. Probably because I grew up with one grandma making the vinegar based type and one grandma making the mayo based type.

  mayonnaise on fries is a staple in Germany.

  Not for me. I only consume coke every once in a while. I sometimes go for months drinking only water, black coffee and the occasional beer, yet I still enjoy Coke.

  I’m getting an error when trying to respond to your message. I’m gonna try and resolve it in the afternoon (well, my afternoon. It’s 5:40 in the morning here and I’m on the last half hour of night shift)

  yes

  If you’re interested in a nursing job in Germany, hit me up. I get a bonus if I bring in a new nurse ;-)

  I had to google what that is. According to this link indeed.com/…/what-does-a-patient-care-technician-… It involves a lot of the same tasks. I do everything that is listed there, except escorting patients and cleaning rooms. But i also have more tasks. I administer medication (I can only administer medication prescribed by a doctor). I change dressings. I do lots of coordination (e.g. with the surgery or radiology team, also stuff around release, like how does the patient get home, where does a patient go if he can’t live alone anymore, where do they get their medication, who will change dressings etc.). I’m also the first responder in an emergency like cardiac arrest. I should probably add that this will vary across hospitals. I work in a mid size hospital (about 500 beds). Generally the bigger the hospital the more additional staff is there to take over some of the “patient care technician tasks” from nurses. Also there are obviously jobs a nurse can do that involve medical tasks that almost exclusively, like working in an emergency room or as a surgical assistant.

  isn’t nursing kinda working against the whole dying thing?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨American wanting to move abroad, what's the best bet for an registered nurse?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m a nurse in germany. From what I hear from colleagues who studied/worked abroad, the job is very different in Germany than most other countries. (I haven’t met anyone who worked in the US.) Mostly, nursing in germany involves a lot less medical tasks, which are reserved for doctors. In turn you’ll do a lot more bedside care.

  turns out running AC to cool tents is super inefficient. Who could have known?

  Oooooooooooh… I might not be Kanye, but it seems I am of similar intelligence.

  I still don’t get it

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I've noticed my boomer parents using Instagram and tik tok. I can't tell you how excited I am for them to kill those platforms like they did facebook.⁩ ⁨⁨8⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  that’s Meta, not Facebook. I’d say now FB is one of their least valuable assets.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Will people show off their old computers and phones in say, 30 or 50 years in the future?⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This is absolutely a thing. There are communities focused around a number of vintage computers (Commodore 64, Amstrad CPC, Sinclair Spectrum, Atari 400 & 800, Apple II, MS-DOS Machines, early Windows, First generation iMacs, the list goes on) and pretty much all game consoles.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How does a SO feel different from a very good friend?⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You might be aromantic, or it might just be that you haven’t met a person or had the time with a person to develop romantic feelings.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Password manager of cookies?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  well, off i understand you correctly, you want to just stay logged in and never bother with the password in your device? That comes with a heap of problems:

  • what if someone else gains access to your device, they’d have instant access to all your accounts
  • what if your device died? If you don’t know the passwords you can never log in on anything else.
  • if you whitelist cookies those sites could track you across other sites, thus INCREASING your attack surface
