It's what plants crave.

Yeah, were got git! This time he'll probably remake the chip!

France is a poorer country than a lot of people think. And it's not the exception. Salaries in Spain, Italy are not great either. Honestly, I wasn't for Brexit but the EU has a nasty rap of punishing the south. The financial handcuffs that were put on Greece were completely uncalled for. It's crippled a generation of young people. And it's of little benefit to the rest of EU. Greece is the equivalent of a small state in Germany. I'm curious what would have happened if they had control of their own currency. Similarly, I'm curious how detrimental Brexit will be in the end.

Better salaries would be one good reason to stay. UK salaries are still better than much of Europe. https://www.informatics-europe... Fine, you've got your ERC grant for your team for a few years, good for you. Now you're 3 years older and settled down in France with your partner so you want to find a job locally. 37k starting professor salary is not great. Academia is poorly paid considering the skillset. The UK values those skills better financially (unless you live in London which is a money pit).

x2go is one of the better pieces of remote desktop software. I wish it respected scaling though, or you could fix the remote resolution. At 4k the remote end has tiny text. I opted for realvnc instead. rustdesk seems interesting too.

They're draining the lifeblood of the planet!

The thing is it's not frowned upon in Europe in general. Nobody gives a shit if I have a beer with lunch. And I do.

As someone who uses it everyday, I can tell you that it's a pile of crap. I like Linux, but Scientific Linux is about 4 years behind Ubuntu etc.

I'll buy that car, how much? Bear in mind I live in Geneva, so it'll be a bit of a drive to get it here. But now is the time to do it! Not only can you see Russia from Alaska, but you can drive there this time of year. Then it's just a jaunt through Outer Mongolia, Kazakhstan etc., and your here! I'll give ya top dollar!
