Trying to get rid of Zelensky now is russian propaganda when only a small part of the country are able to vote. It would strip the democratic rights away from those living in captured territory.
If everyone lived like developed countries we would need even less resources because the birth rate is so low we wouldn't suffer over population. Also look at how less developed countries dispose of garbage.
Not denying how some developed countries send their trash to developing countries for disposal on the beaches. Fuck them. CEO's and politicians responsible need the rope.
Railway doesn't have to be profitable under government funding. The railway is a way to establish profitable businesses surrounding the railway. The profit comes from taxes paid by everyone getting work because of the railway.
Hurricanes are not getting more frequent or violent because of climate change though. They are likely to become more rare with increasing temperature in the northern hemisphere because of even temperatures in the weather systems.
Lex Friedman ep 339 does a good job explaining the difference between more and severe weather and people settling down in huge numbers in already exposed areas.
We had a huge rainfall in Norway last year submerging a lot of properties. People said this was unprecedented and because of climate change. Only issue is that we have historical data on earlier floods, and people had settled down below the markings of earlier floods more than 100 years ago. The issue is not climate change, but regulating properties on a patch of land you know with 100% certainty will get flooded again.
I left Spotify for Tidal. But why would anyone feel obliged for free music from a commercial host? Just self host if you dont want to pay. Piracy is always morally right. It's preservation of cultural heritage.
I choose to pay for Tidal because of convenience. I refuse to pay for more than 2 streaming services. It's fairly easy for any adult to make choices like that.
This is an imagined problem and a fairly new one to.
Left handed people having to use tools and appliances designed for right handed people is an actual bigger issue.
I hope they go for hindu swastikas just to mess with them.
Ja jeg la inn en liten linje om det. Så det skal de få poeng for :)
"I've had sand on my vegetables before. Can I wash them?"
I've found sand in salad multiple times. Not washing greens are weird.
Can be built up power in the muscle. If you've ever cut out the heart of a fish it will beat in you palm. You can even stimulate it to beat with compressions after it stops by itself.
No. Because they are also very very rich. So its impossible to be strict. Its just no way!
I'm lost. Why is the word Fuck sensorer both on image and text? What's going on? With the sensoring there's no way to know what's true and not. Maybe they wrote love Elon. No one knows.
Flawed. What jobs are Greece lacking workers for? Can the said migrants fill those roles while simultaneously getting integrated into the societal norms and customs?
If yes. Cool.
If no. Not a solution.
I don't agree to the pushing people into the sea. But one problem is not the solution to a different one.
Quota migrants are the way to go. Human trafficking is bad.
I thought it was 4 images for a while.
Just how the Black death was great for the working class. The plague didn't discriminate. So the guilds collapsed and regular people could take up professions exclusive they was locked out of earlier.
Best thing that happened for reform was the black death. Almost as if toppling the social elite is net positive for everyone.
The rich will be the only one to survive how exactly?
Do you have any idea of how much empty space there is available in the northern hemisphere? A huge portion of the planet are inhabitable as it is now. Not because of heat but the opposite. The ocean level rising is neither a new phenomenon. The ocean has raised and fallen multiple times through the existence of our species. The first people who got to UK walked there. And when they settled hippos lived there.
Humans have never lived in a static environment. Most humans aren't capable of imagining time beyond their own lifetime. Therefore some choose to resign. I guess that's Darwinism at its finest.
I'm all in with climate change suck. I'm all for dragging the rich out in the street and setting them on fire for fucking everything up. But how some think we live in this static environment that only changed just now, and it will be our end is just wrong.
Can't wait for Arrakeen rooftop agility courses. Gonna make some mad spice brews with the herblore skill and tend to my palm tree once a day for some mad xp drops.
Humanity wont end because of a rise in temperature. Humanity will change. Believing it's an extinction level event is the opinion of someone who uses the bible as the timeline of humanity.
Spend a minute on the topic of historical changes in climate and you will see humanity will endure. Change sure, but not gone.

A welcome change in my opinion. Having played through the biome both solo and duo im happy to see spawn rates reduced a bit. The initial landing is fine as a challenge, but after that it gets very tedious and boring after a while.
There's only so many skeletons you want to parry before you're fed up with the play loop. Hopefully this will make engaging the biome a bit more interesting and better paced.
For all Island spawn enjoyers. 15 seeds with small isolated starter islands.
The list provides seeds, links and a short description of the starter island and it's surroundings. No special order. I just enjoy looking for Island spawns.
1: ys3gYb8k56 Small island in swimming distance to the closest boss.
2: 3wuuiCXwTC Two medium sized islands isolated from the first boss.
3: JFezuBPp0G Very isolated starter island. Medium size. Map has fairly large islands elsewhere.
4: UXL0hU9qKf medium size started island. Pretty hard spawn regarding progress to bosses.
5: S8gqZJnHfK Tiny starter island with swimming distance to closest land. Good north to south axis acorss the map nearby.
6: esrAdQkm5q Medium sized starter island. Requires a fair bit of sailing to progress.
7: PfA9wj3f2v Mediun size started island. Large islands nearby. First three bosses require little movement.
8: 0L4FgEDG4J Tiny starter island with swimming distance to several medium islands. Not optimal for fast boss progression. Good for long exploration sessions.
9: i3CGcgqFv2 Small starter island. Possible to progress without sailing. Fairly hard progression to bosses.
10: 5rOsEmaRy5 Small starter island with the first three bosses not requiring any sailing.
11: EKmNbxiuhK Medium sized starter island requiring sailing to reach the first boss. Possible to reach large portions of the map with little sailing.
12: AnGFH3FwQG Mediun sized starter island only separeted by a river from the nearest land.
13: WtanWD7Eiw Medium sized starter island with swimming distance to the first boss. Bad place if you want your permanent base close to the spawn.
14: I6SSa7afVu Small starter island with hard progression to all bosses after the first one.
15: Z3xHPebym3 Medium sized starter island with possibilities for early iron.
15 island spawns for all island enjoyers. I've searched through 100s of seeds and saved some of the more interesting ones regarding islands.
Regjeringen legger frem langtidsplanen for Forsvaret. Dette er de viktigste hovedpunktene.
Kraftig løft for Forsvaret vårt. Nye fartøyer, luftvern, styrking av landforsvaret. Dette blir et kraftig løft i alle domener.
TERNINGMOEN (Forsvarets forum): Det blir en drastisk økning av vernepliktige til førstegangstjeneste.
Det første tiltaket er offentliggjort i den nye forsvarssatsningen.
Olsenbanden er muligens det beste media produsert i Norge noen sinne. Overbevis meg om noe annet.
Fantastiske stunt. Gode praktiske effekter. Memorable sett og scener. Ikke for å glemme det fengende tema-sangen.
Filmene respekterer tiden til seerne og de tar ikke seg selv for seriøst.
Det gjelder selvfølgelig kun filmene fra 1969-1984. Alt etter er en ettertanke.
Riktignok er de inspirert av en dansk filmserie, men den norske adopsjonen er av god kvalitet som holder seg godt.
Overbevis meg om noe annet.
[Solved] I'm trying to find clips from a comedian.
Years ago I saw some funny clips of an Australian, or maybe New Zealand comedian. He had one episode were he spoke to people trying to shoot a golf ball into a hole on a small platform.
In another sketch he was going undercover spying on some super market to figure out some obscure conspiracy.
I'm not able to find the guy again. Searching on YouTube has become hopeless. Anyone got a clue?
Byrådsleder Eirik Lae Solberg (H) i Oslo vil gjerne se på hvordan en jødisk høytid kan markeres i hovedstaden.
Her er en liten kalender til byrådet i Oslo for alle de religiøse høytidene de nå kan markere siden de først er i gang.
Unpredictble killing 250 Jads in the infinite Jad challenge.
For the uninitiated. Unpredictble stacked five jads and killed the sixth one by itself with some insane strats.
Freia har som eiendel av Mondelez fortsatt tilstedeværelse i Russland.
Mondelez driver fortsatt næringsvirksomhet i Russland. Siden fullskala-invasjonen av Ukraina har selskapet kun evaluert situasjonen.

Det er fortsatt mulig å velge norsk sjokolade på butikken. Spesielt nå som påsken kommer og folkets favoritt tursjokolade selges latterlig billig.
EU har invitert Norge til en dugnad for å utvikle nye atomkraftverk. – Bør gripes med begge hender, mener Frp.
Statssekretær Elisabeth Sæther (Ap) hinter til at dette ikke er aktuelt fordi vi ikke har kunnskap om emnet. Siden vi ikke har kunnskap kan vi ikke få kunnskap heller.
why is "commander in chief" structured like that?
Why not Chief in command or Commander of chiefs or similar?
The sentence basically means Commander in biggest or Commander in most important. It's a strange structure.
The west should not protect merchant ships from Houthi drone attacks in the Red Sea.
US and other Nato countries should not bother with protecting merchant ships attacked in the Red sea. The shipping companies have to rely on the navies of their flag states for protection. The 10 largest flag states for shipping are:
Panama, Liberia, Marshall Islands, Hong Kong, Singapore, Malta, Bahamas, China, Greece, Japan
Hong Kong is now China. But there is still an independent shipping tax haven there. The shipping companies avoiding taxes in western countries does not deserve protection from the same countries.
They can get a return of the tax money by letting the mentionee countries send their navies. Greece is a NATO country, so NATO can participate to some degree with support to the flag state navies.
*Guess this was a popular opinion.
Tidligere utenriksminister Anniken Huitfeldt (Ap) vil om kort tid utnevnes til Norges nye ambassadør til Washington D.C.
Sak bak betalingsmur. Eller bare ikke bak betalingsmur med 12ft.io.
>Publisert: 18.02.2024 17:52 | Oppdatert: 18.02.2024 19:17
>Dette vil skje i Kongen i statsråd 1. mars, får Aftenposten opplyst fra kilder med kjennskap til prosessen.
>Huitfeldt vil da fratre som stortingsrepresentant og innplasseres inntil videre i sikkerhetspolitisk avdeling i UD, får Aftenposten opplyst.
>Dagens ambassadør til USA, Anniken Krutnes, skal etter planen gå av i august. Ventet på godkjennelse
>Allerede i januar ble det kjent at regjeringen ønsker Anniken Huitfeldt som ambassadør i USA. Å være Norges ambassadør i Washington D.C. regnes som den kanskje aller mest prestisjetunge ambassadørposten i utenrikstjenesten.
>UD ventet da kun på diplomatisk godkjennelse, en såkalt agrement, fra amerikanerne, meldte flere medier.
>Nå har amerikanere svart, og agrementet er på plass. Omstridt valg
>Huitfeldt er i dag stortingsrepresentant for Akershus og må dermed få fritak for dette vervet. Grunnloven fastslår at ansatte i utenrikstjenesten ikke kan stille til valg.
>Det er svært uvanlig at stortingsrepresentanter fritas fra tillitsvervet som folkevalgt på Stortinget for å bli ambassadør. Det har skjedd fire ganger tidligere.
>Regjeringens valg av Huitfeldt som ny ambassadør er allerede omstridt. Utnevnelsen er møtt med kritikk fra blant andre Frp-leder Sylvi Listhaug og stortingsrepresentant Bård Ludvig Thorheim fra Høyre.
>Dagens Næringsliv omtalte rett før jul at utenriksminister Espen Barth Eide (Ap) og deretter statsminister Jonas Gahr Støre har hatt en prat med stortingspresident Masud Gharahkhani (Ap). Ifølge avisen advarte Gharahkhani advarte mot å utnevne Huitfeldt. Begrunnelsen var ikke at hun måtte fritas fra vervet på Stortinget.
>Gharahkhani viste i stedet til alle sakene om habilitet i fjor.
>Huitfeldt var blant dem. Hun måtte gå av som utenriksminister i oktober i fjor. Huitfeldts ektemann handlet som kjent aksjer mens hun var statsråd. Det førte til at Huitfeldt trolig var inhabil i flere saker hun behandlet.
>En del av Støres begrunnelse for vrakingen var tilliten til politikerne.
Pirat-TV øker kraftig – Norge på vei mot toppen
Nesten 900.000 nordmenn innrømmer å ha lastet ned piratkopier. Ifølge eksperten er dette flere enn da The Pirate Bay hadde sin storhetstid.
Lemmy er et ganske hett sted for personer som ønsker å konservere media fra destruksjon av rettighetsholdere.
Tydelig at statsmedia ikke evner å underholde befolkningen med sitt beskjedne budsjett.
En ganske interessant artikkel der ideologi og rasjonalitet kræsjer front mot front.
Svarene fra Pride-forkjempere leses som om det er "Astroturfing" ment til å sette hele bevegelsen i dårlig lys. Argumentet om at pridegatene skal bestå til det skjer en dødsulykke er rimelig hysterisk egentlig.
Folk skal få elske den de elsker. Men utforming av infrastruktur må være universell og forutsigbar. Jeg ser ikke for meg at andre organisasjoner skal få dekorere så fritt som Pride organisasjoner gjør.
I'm having a good time with the game.
Despite all the frustration people are having with v1.0 I must say I actually enjoy it. I play with a couple of friends and we make steady progress.
Lurking on Reddit makes it seem the game is some impossible mess. I'm pretty sure it's mostly a skill issue. Sometimes the AI is a bit crazy, but it's much easier to defend a place than attack it. It makes sense the AI has the upper hand in many situations.
I see some tweaking can be done to make them more willing to surrender though.
Overall I enjoy the difficulty the game has. Getting dunked when not approaching a challenge the right way is fine.
