Thats my only hope. Much like how the top nazis under Hitler would have (and in the few days also did) imploded in infighting after Hitlers death. Will the MAGA movement fail when the driving force dies? Will we see a mad scramble for power where whoever comes out in top doesn’t have whatever crazy Trump has?

Polish photographer i seem to remember. Used these models in several pictures. Never outright erotica, but certainly having that vibe

That picture must be 20-25 years old now. Rememeber that as a demotivational (old meme format, now extinct)

That would work both ways… LadyButterfly gets a warning she is about to run into Frostbeard and thinks “Hell no!” and immediately makes a hard U-turn.

From the other side Frostbears gets a notification that he is about to run into LadyButterfly…and she never shows up… The ping fading away. He knows then in his heart she is actively avoiding him…

Yeah. Remember reading something about first time birthing mothers had a higher chance of surviving with higher red blood cell count at high altitude. Have then selected for that adaptation.

This is a staple food in Norway. The Norwegian variant is made with smoked cod roe.

Think the Swedish variant is some kind of freshwater fish? Can’t imagine IKEA will deliver culinary greatness tho’

19 as an army conscript. Never volunteer, never be first, but also never be last. Never let your friends or colleagues do your work tho’, always lift your share. Always have your friends back, never trow blame aroud out loud, nd never trust those who are willing to stab others in the back. Lost honor and trust can never be fully regained.

I think its slightly different because you are not forced into the loyalty programs. You can still buy fuel with a card at the pump without registration. With the app you can’t use the charger without registration.

See that CircleK has simple cars options on 90% of their stations, and that several others are updating their chargers with card payment option.

I work as an engineer in an governmental capacity. Use § daily when writing letters citing legislation.

This is because someone can’t be arsed to make a dedicated Norwegian/Swedish/Danish keyboard. Norway and Denmark uses æ/ø/å. But ofc not the same key position. Sweden ä/ö/å. The same goes for several of the other keys. What they type depends on language used

They mention Norway in the article and it’s NOT hard to find a fuel pump. Granted many petrol stations has shut down, but often at least one pump remain. And many stations has rebranded as “energy stations”.

What bugs me with the EV market is how you need a fucking app for every fucking vendor when charging on the road (and how Tesla cornered many of the prime spots and tried shut everyone else out)

Filling up with diesel/petrol I just tap my card at the pump and validate with pin. With EV it’s apparently “not possible”. And many of these vendors dont spend much on their crap software. Its pure lock-in.

What? Police can “subpoena” whatever the fuck they want. ISPs must log and keep them for years. Will share with allied intelligence services and Interpol. Never thought of Norwegian privacy laws as particularly strong…

Fuck. Remember those outfits. By the older Gods I glad I jumped ship when the API change happened

Scientific American points to an important fact.

"With our latest surveys, such as the Dark Energy Spectroscopic Instrument (DESI) and Euclid, by my very rough estimation, we’ve taken pictures of somewhere around 100 million galaxies out of the two trillion or so estimated to exist in the entire observable universe.

Shamir’s paradigm-shattering conclusion relies on 263 of them."

They are discussing bias in the selection.

“Unfortunately, this kind of extreme selection introduces many opportunities for bias to creep in. When we test a new idea in cosmology—indeed, in all of science—we work to make our conclusion as robust as possible. For example, if we were to change any of these filtering steps, from the selection of survey region to the threshold for deciding whether to include a galaxy in the analysis, our results should hold up or at least show a clear trend where the signal becomes stronger. But there isn’t enough information about such methodological checks in Shamir’s paper to make that judgment, which casts doubt on the validity of the conclusions.”

In my office I have a list that says passwords all nonsens and just as a decoy. I have a system that I use for rotation woth a visual reminder (by association, not directly) somwhere in my office

They are staple flod in Norway, or used to be. To such an extent that one of the traditional christmas dishes has rutabaga/swede mash as a side dish.

Rich in vitamin C, so I have heard it being called the “Orange of the North”

Incidentally potato is called that in old dialected Norwegian as well(Archaic as its not really used anymore)
