What song did you love until you found out what it was about? in c/[email protected]

Tears in heaven from Eric Clapton. I always liked this song, and didn't have a special connotation. But after learning its backstory, now I just feel sadness when I hear it. :-(

which VPS do you recommend? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 month ago

I'm also a switcher from ovh to hetzner. Good service, good support, fast machines, the administration website is very good (ovh was slow and ugly), snapshots and backups are cheap and directly available (AFAIR ovh snapshots required a monthly fee). Hetzner is Germany based, good for GDPR, and now they have data centers in USA too.

What single book/text would you recommend for people and what skill can it help them learn? in c/[email protected]

The 7 habits of highly effective people. Stephen R. Covey

I like so much this book, it teaches so many things, one of those that I preach more is the 4 quadrant matrix for effective time management: An enlightening tool for people that live their lives solving crisis after crisis.

How are you different from the stereotypical "average person" in your country? in c/[email protected]

I'm the type of person who gives money back to a cashier when they make a mistake by incorrectly giving me more money, that's very rare in the country where I was born.
