Oh for fucks sake thats probably why there are no flights on Wednesday next week, i didn’t even consider the football idiots

More like having tacos on Fridays, reading crime stories for easter, eating (crappy) frozen pizza for christmas, …

You see not wrong though, it’s frustrating…

He just needs to finance a big ad campaign and most of Norway will be on board with almost anything. There are “traditions” here based on ad campaigns, it would be funny if it wouldn’t be so stupid

Shouldve added kim instead? I guess i didnt pay attention which instance i commented on but “lmao” indeed

We should start getting rid of the people who actively want that. Dangerous line of thinking i guess, but nobody can tell me that the wold wouldnt be net positive for removing trump, putin, xi, weidel, etc.

Edit: counts for everyone next in line as well so long as they try to keep the idiology/insanity up

I have a) ignored the fact you said about whatsapp because i was annoyed with the “inevitable” sentiment. sorry for that and fantastic step from you; And b) i have not used it in…i don’t even know, 6-8 years? I was very hopefull more people make a switch during the last time news came up. But i am also in europe and well aware how stupid the situation is, unfortunately.

I am also aware how stupid many businesses are, but i am closer to the other end of the spectrum and just stubborn so i simply don’t partake. And i will be complaining, but obviously without much reach in my echo chamber of people who switched anyway.

But what i mean is really that there can be change, slowly and gradually but it works. I my of my close family and most of my few friends to Signal and slowly i see this spreading to aquaintances. Like my bouldering group switched lately, which was a very nice surprise to me.

Or you know, people can start to move? Always this ridiculous expectation, “i only move if everyone uses it”. Like how is thay supposed to work?

No, not everyone needs to make a cold cut, even though it would be better. But you can start using e.g. Signal and maybe one or two of your friends would too. And slowly more and more people would migrate. It’s a process, but if most people don’t even bother then of course it won’t go anywhere.

Doesn’t work like that though. Many notes are the same.

E.g. standard tuning 5th fret on the low E(1st string) is the same as open A (2nd string)

Works for the other strings as well, so it’s more like 24 + 5 * 5 ? Or something along the lines, haven’t thought it through…

If you can affort a more than 15m² place that is

I like Oslo, but damn rent/real estate is stupid expensive

is McDonalds cheap in Norway?

Not much is cheap here, especially food :) But I guess it is cheaper than alternatives. Though, I never actually tried it here, so I can’t say about the quality.

I could get good food for that money from the supermarket next door.

Jealous. If only that were true everywhere. Supermarkets suck here…or cost a fortune or both

I’d still rather eat from a trashcan than mcdonalds

Edit: actually thinking about it, there is a fantastic falaffel place in oslo, i guess that would count as favorite. At the very least anything that isnt a chain

I know exactly how stupid that phrase sounds :/

She did but her husband did not. Detaining her for traveling with him is nuts. Detaining him for that is also nuts but another story. The point being: there were “irregularities” involved. I am not saying it’s not insane but also not completely random.

6 weeks detained by ICE is no holiday, the conditions are horrible, and you will more likely than not be denied medical service if you need it.

They did state that one person had an expired visa in the article. Absolutely not defending anything ICE did to the traveling couple, but it was not just being randomly picked up and carried away like headline and summary suggests.

Refuse it

I am strongly considering that anyway…

Honestly, i don’t know if wouldn’t feel less worried about going to russia lol. Might be news bias but still.

I will need to travel there for work next month 🥲

Iirc Microslop officially stated that they “can not deny data is flowing home”. And thats just the offical answer of one company…

Instance name checks out

Same boat here, just works, both on my laptop and deksktop.

In fact most of our company runs linux on laptops with nvidia gpu…

The biggest problem i can think of is a distro that doesn’t ship the drivers in their package manager. and then it’s just following the description on the nvidia website how to install them for your distro.

I got my close family and partner to use Signal but thats about it in terms of pushing.

Recently my bouldering group also moved to Signal, which was a nice surprise. But we are most likely all a little autistic in some way.

In terms of events: there are still many places that have websites. Admittedly I don’t go out too much, but i find concerts and events just fine when i want to. It’s an active thing though and not just appearing in my feed.
