Same with metallic mercury. But once it evaporates....

Think they got replace ny screens many places. Think the reason they are forgotten is how insanely expsensive they can be.

I bought zip screens for my westward facing windows and it was ridiculously expensive. And then the electrical work on top. They are all custom ordered to fit the window so it hikes up the price.

Wasn't Eisenhower the last of those republicans?

Like Terry Pratchett said: Bad times make good men

Good men make good times

Good times make bad men

Bad men makes bad times

They are banned for possible connections to a country and an organization (IDF) that have been confirmed to perform war crimes.

If you willfully target children no matter your skin colour, creed, religion or whatever arbitrary set of parameters you are a criminal.

Israelis are now discovering the price of being associated with war criminals.

Can understand that, but I feel it's dumbed down. Better to state the increase and then say it's relative to [some relatable fact] perhaps?

The important part is to be loyal. Same as when Elizabeth I broke with Rome the people punished for being chatolic was not charged with heresy, but treason

I don't like to use relative numbers to illustrate the increase. 48% can be miniscule or enormous based on the emission last year.

While I don't think the increase is miniscule it's still an unessesary ambiguity.

I installed Mint (no idea mint was old tbh) looked into Gentoo and tried the live boot USB option. 'This looks nice, no how do I install" The install option opened a web page (gentoo wiki) with several options for guides based on various permutations. All options send you in a ring without actually telling me how to install.

I went back to Mint as it does the few things I need a PC to do these days:

Some kind of office suite with spreadsheet and word processor, Steam, Netflix and Prime, Firefox

Added bonus is that it runs MegaMek natively AND i don't need to read pages of documentation, just click install.

Long live the Gravis Ultrasound Max!

What's the issue? I installed mint because I know fuckall about Linux, and tbh it's a dice toss if I have used the Flatpak option not knowing what the actual difference between them are

The white chair is TripTrap made by Stokke (At least the original design, guess it's been pirated by other makers) This could have been any Nordic country as well apart from the details ofc :) I blame IKEA for that

So the Norwegian Forest Cat is sitting on the Norwegian children chair :)

Edit. Think it might be a siberian actually...

Norwegian here. Not that often I think of India tbh, but here is a short bullet point list

• Massive overpopulation
• Rich and dirt poor at the same time
• Castes
• Politically governed by nationalists
• Rape stories
• Massive market thats the only reason we care about India
• Good tech industry (moon landing?)
• Don't go to Kashmir
• Holi
• Bollywood
• "Indian" food (know that some protein in some sauce with nan and rice is not all an entire subcontinent can offer)

Last show I saw about India was that James May show on Amazon

I guess the size has something to do with the size of Japanese roads and back alley space?

No. But she loved the the reply :)

I installed Linux on my gfs (now wife) old laptop years ago when the beginner distros was way less user friendly. When I asked on a forum for help it was just the sound of crickets. When she made her first post starting with "my boyfriend installed Linux and I don't understand how to..." They fucking fell out trees to answer her questions

There is also the fact that thousands of Norwegians served in Lebanon for 20 years and witnessed IDF first hand. They took their stories home with them. I served in Kosovo and most of my colleagues had spent years in Lebanon. One time a very Christian solider watching the news in a joint TV room comments loudly and negativeo on palestinians in a news story and it almost came to blows. No one liked Hezbollah, but many hated the IDF. I heard the story of the Qana massacre from a Norwegian patrol that was present (the wiki article dosent mention them.) To hear the story how they had to shut the shelter door on civilians as there was no more room is enough to break your heart.

Fuck IDF it took them less than 80 years to turn in to the SS

Multiplay.co.uk stopped offering servers, and Discord was all new, bright and shiny so we switched to Disc. Was sad to see it go tbh

There is a windows software for Netflix? I have been using my browser on all platforms tbh

Pocket Cast is still decent. But they increased the sub prices a lot recently. I was still on an old plan, so I don't know what I'll do when it expires. What bugs me more is podcast releasing exclusively on certain platforms. Congratulations, you just reinvented radio
