What? Milk and chocolate? Another shocking discovery that cultures vary. In Sweden it would be porridge for the hustomte (house gnome), at least in my experience

- Comment on If you had too, how would go about running a Instagram account? 2 weeks ago:
Hiding seems like a good idea. I have a Instagram account with my real name on my phone because I need it to get information way more often then I’d want to. In a matter of days multiple friends tried to follow my account, even though I never posted anything.
Also, as many people have already said, Instagram is geard towards short form video. As said, I really don’t use Instagram but if I scroll down my home feed past the accounts I follow I just get fed maybe 80% short forn video of which alot seems to be AI generated.

- Comment on Does each country have a book/library of the laws of the land that a commoner can consult to check if they're about to do something illegal? 2 weeks ago:
I fumbles into a rabbit hole. Both of those laws are from 1736, which I have heard before. But apparently, the trade code from that year is also still in effect. It isn’t nearly as funny (although I didn’t check the Finnish version that thoroughly, so there might be some gems there that I missed) but there are some highlights:
Chapter 14 is titled “About Mercenary” (at least that’s how I interpret “Om legohjon”) but the chapter is left completely empty. They chapter is completely removed in the Finnish version.
Also, there is chapter 3 about what one shall do to receive the right to trade and become a part of the burgher class. Removed in Finland
Finally, you may not use boats, shipyards or aircraft in a pledge (is that correct English?). This is revised in the Finnish version, and the same prohibition doesn’t exist there. This is chapter 10 § 7 for those interested

This is amazing. Somewhere in the back of my head I knew that you still had the old Criminal Code left, but never had I read it. Here in Sweden we have since swapped that one for a hopefully less outdated law. Here is a English translation for those interested:
We Alexander the Third, by the Grace of God, Emperor and Autocrat of all Russia, Tsar of Poland, Grand Duke of Finland, etc., etc., etc., do hereby solemnly declare: At the submissive request of the Estates of Finland, We hereby ratify the following penal code for the Grand Duchy of Finland, concerning the introduction of which, as also concerning the execution of punishment, a special decree is issued:
(That’s a machine translation, I couldn’t be bothered to do it myself. But I must say I’m impressed of how well it handled the very old school Swedish)
Also, regarding the other law, byggningabalken or Rakennuskaari, we apparently removed the really funny section about the mandatory ownership of a hops trellis in 1860 here in Swede. To bad really. But the rest of that law still applies here. Also, on behalf of the Finnish state I would like to charge you a fine of one riksdal for not maintaining your hops trellis the last year.
And finally, in regards to OPs question, in Sweden we have the official government site www.riksdagen.se/sv/dokument-och-lagar/ and then lagen.nu which is a bit more user friendly
