  Yes. I’m Norwegian but I used to know an irate IT finn named Linus. A separate irate IT finn named Linus, that is.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Top 50 defederated instances⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Agreed. While I tend to disagree with most of viewpoints coming from lemmygrad, at least the content is posted with benign intent. The room might stink, but nobody intentionally shat on the floor to piss people off.

  Rtx on/off meme template;

  “Off” is a greyscale picture of metacat struggling with manual dependencies. Pissibly combined with “Isn’t there a better way?” from ye olde shopping channel ads.

  “On” Is a HDR image of a smiling metacat having no such issue. In the background a rainbow can be seen over a flowery garden, in which people are holding hands with rabbits frolicking in the grass.

  Yeah yeah, I know, I’ll go to bed now…

  Anyone who lives near the sea an can see ships disappear behind the horizon.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tesla Cybertruck's stiff structure, sharp design raise safety concerns - experts⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It could be a good vehicle, if it was built by someone else.

  The past few years have revealed that while Tesla have the tech, they lack the basic precision manufacturing that other automakers managed decades ago.

  I just refer to them as AP, as the wireless aspect is implied. In contrast, a Wired AP is called a switch.

  Am I to understand that the cable use has multiple cores within a single cladding? Interesting approach…

  Now we get to classify them as singlemode, multimode, and multiestmode.

  Shhhh, keeping up appearances. Can’t let them stinky continentals know.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Norwegian union join Sweden and Denmark in strike against Tesla⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s our N-word. It’s not offensive if we’re the ones using it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Norwegian union join Sweden and Denmark in strike against Tesla⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  How bad did Musk fuck this up? Enough for us noggies to join the side of swedes AND danes…I hope to see the finns join in too.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How long could one survive with only water and beer and no food?⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  A really obese person wouldn’t be considered healthy, though.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How long could one survive with only water and beer and no food?⁩ ⁨⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I learned once upon a time that a healthy person needs about three weeks to starve to death if they have water. Not sure how accurate it is as it’s part of the rule of three mnemonic; 3 minutes without oxygen, 3 days without water, 3 weeks without food. However, it does at least seem reasonably plausible, so we can use that as a baseline.

  Now, beer does have some nutrients, but far from enough of the ones you need. It has to be balanced with water to be able to burn the alcohol without dehydrating yourself. I would therefore think that the beer in moderate amounts might help some, but not a lot. Four weeks toral, maybe?

  I’m doing pretty decent financially, and I don’t eat three meals a day. I just have awful dietary habits.
