rabagast @rabagast.bsky.social · 8hhele norge er egentlig sykt lite. på samme lille arbeidsplass i oslo hadde jeg én kollega fra vestlandet som det viste seg at var en fjern slektning, og én fra sørlandet som hadde faren til eks-samboeren min som lærer på vgs. 140

rabagast @rabagast.bsky.social · 16hi watched the rest of the series, and unfortunately the fake icebergs were only the start of the problems. the longer i watched the harder it was to believe any of what was happening, and the last 2 episodes were just wtf. i'd rather just rewatch widow's bay. 020

rabagast @rabagast.bsky.social · 08/10/2026other than the fake icebergs, the sets and locations look great and real. now i've never been to newfoundland, but this place looks like i'd imagine newfoundland might look like. it's got texture, feels worn-in. just a shame about those icebergs. 110
rabagast @rabagast.bsky.social · 08/10/2026one episode into below (new show on netflix) and one big flaw so far: the icebergs don't look at all real. the icebergs play a pretty central part in this episode and they look entirely unconvincing. i understand real icebergs would be a continuity nightmare to work with, but this looks so bad. 150

rabagast @rabagast.bsky.social · 08/10/2026lol it's actually the one thing to thank ai scraping for, it's affecting my employer's budget so we can't afford wasting time on unproductive meetings this year. 000
rabagast @rabagast.bsky.social · 08/10/2026i suspect they just fell for the survey software marketing. last year they also insisted on having monthly meetings with each team to discuss the survey results, but thankfully someone realized this was not a particularly productive use of our time so we're not doing the monthly meetings this year. 100
rabagast @rabagast.bsky.social · 08/10/2026sounds like it might be better than i feared. was wondering if it would be worth giving it a try, now i reckon i will. 000
rabagast @rabagast.bsky.social · 08/10/2026sounds like it might be slightly widow's bay-ish but not funny? 100
rabagast @rabagast.bsky.social · 08/10/2026though i should just have let them believe that 46% of us are ignoring their weekly (!) surveys. if you're now wondering *why on earth* we have weekly (!) job satisfaction surveys, it's because of the HR person who somehow completely forgot about the summer holidays. 3120
rabagast @rabagast.bsky.social · 08/10/2026surprise: they had not. the actual response rate *from those of us who were not on holiday* in the last 3 months was between 70 and 80%. like why tf would i waste time on responding to a weekly (!) job satisfaction survey when the result is processed by people unable to process the result. 190
rabagast @rabagast.bsky.social · 08/10/2026baaah HR person at work freaked because over the last 3 months the response rates for the weekly (!) job satisfaction survey dropped to 54% and they want it to be 80%. i checked the math and asked if they'd taken the summer holidays into account (i knew the answer before asking, it was obvious). 190

rabagast @rabagast.bsky.social · 08/10/2026hei folkens nå er kommunen din i gang med årets covid-vaksine, men det virker som de ikke informerer særlig aktivt om det i år så du kanskje må finne ut av det selv på kommunens nettsider. som hovedregel, hvis du ikke er risikogruppe, kontakter du fastlegen for å få resept på vaksinen. 1178
rabagast @rabagast.bsky.social · 07/10/2026he won't, the committee members have to settle on a winner they can all agree on. 010
rabagast @rabagast.bsky.social · 07/10/2026unfortunately, at least one of the committee members would not even need to be bribed. the members are selected by the political parties represented in the norwegian parliament, and the right-wingers' chosen committee member is rather a bit worse of a person than you'd probably guess. 140

rabagast @rabagast.bsky.social · 07/10/2026not just that the bears are cool and adorable being bear friends, but how you knew exactly the moment and exactly which bears i was talking about, even though i haven't been watching them long enough to recognize each bear or know their names or shared history. this is what's fun about the internet. 100
rabagast @rabagast.bsky.social · 07/10/2026i've found the perfect webcam schedule now: bear cam during alaskan daylight hours, when the bears are up and about, and volcano cam while it's night in hawaii and kilauea's flaming vents glow in the dark. this time of year my time zone is 10 hours ahead of alaska and 12 hours ahead of hawaii. 2133
rabagast @rabagast.bsky.social · 07/10/2026i probably have quite different needs than you, i specifically do not want a smooth idiomatic translation, but the most direct, literal, word by word translation. which is why i do not use chatbots for translation, they're not fit for my purposes. when i need high accuracy i hire a human translator. 110

rabagast @rabagast.bsky.social · 06/10/2026de har klart å holde det gående ganske lenge i strekk nå med ukentlige episoder av serier som er såpass bra at jeg ikke er villig til å vente til hele sesongen er tilgjengelig før jeg begynner å se, og det er de alene om. men tynt utvalg av filmer. 010

rabagast @rabagast.bsky.social · 06/10/2026there's a guy in that quoted thread who keeps asking people who mention lost "why?" and will argue with anyone saying at a certain point it became obvious the writers were just throwing spaghetti at the wall, and i'm finding this very funny and more than a little weird. let people not enjoy lost! 020
