- Comment on To make it more interesting I have program that randomly gives out coordinates. I then sharpen my aim to hit the required target 12 hours ago:
That is a splashback guarantee toilet shape.
- Comment on So how would you handle this? 12 hours ago:
Are those 1m screws or is it just in the Scandics that floors are at least 50cm thick with isolation and sound dampening?
- Comment on What if the Epstein files are the distraction? 1 week ago:
Exactly. Even outside of the US, he is everywhere. Luckily we also have lives, so we get a distance, but I can only imagine the overwhelming everything all the time working.
- Comment on How did "ancient humans" got the idea to pierce their ears/body ? 1 week ago:
Just like high heels for men riding horses in western Europe were a masculine trait when they were invented and still are today. And don’t forget the knightly colours of red and pink. No woman would dare to feminise such manly things.
- Comment on [deleted] 1 week ago:
I would think “Finally something not negative for women happening there”
- Comment on What if the USA decided to use another language as its *de facto* national language at it's founding? How would it affect the world? 1 week ago:
Seeing as the first Nazi loss was by British and Norwegian hands during the war, and the main argument for most Scandic communists before it was more anti British than anti US, the British commonwealth probably still is the major driver by it being a major western world second language, starting before major US influence started 80 years ago.
- Comment on Is it weird that whenever there's an internet disruption, the first thing that I assume is happening is war, civil unrest, or government censorship, or some sort of conspiracy happening? 1 week ago:
As a non USian, I would assume it’s again another US company fuck up we need to get away from going forward.
- Comment on 1 week ago:
In eastern Norway there is always a bit of chaos at first snow fall, but that’s just for the first day. The next few meters of snow throughout the year is no biggie. Come on guys, there has been ways to handle a cute, little blizzard with a car for a century now. Get with the program.
- Comment on If you receive a high medical bill, don't pay it immediately. Ask for an itemized bill first. 1 week ago:
And here we complain that a GP appointment with full blood panel and whatever is needed is closing €30.
You guys need to start voting towards civilisation instead of against it.

YSK you don’t get a medical bill in a civilised country.
- Comment on If the 2028 election was held today, who would you vote for? 1 week ago:
I’m hoping the tutti frutti coalition proves fruitful and Red gets their national commuter ticket next year as well.
- Comment on There is *shower*thoughts, but is there a "snowstorm thoughts" for when you have random nostalgia moments about the past? Particularly about a past snow storm in your childhood, like the SNOW DAYS 1 week ago:
I went to work the one day in January 24 when the Norwegian train company told everyone that could to stay at home. Spent five hours on my normal 45 minute commute.
- Comment on I took a picture of the back of my pizza box for you guys just in case you were stuck home because of the snow and needed something to do. 1 week ago:
In Norwegian, the US snow storm seems really cute.
- Comment on Do babies learn languages at different rates depending on how hard the language is? 2 weeks ago:
This got me curious, what is it with Nordic languages that is so off putting to you?
- Comment on Do babies learn languages at different rates depending on how hard the language is? 2 weeks ago:
Like learning Norwegian (bokmål) while living on the west coast. French vocal r, secondary Norwegian language, one hour travel north or south can be regarded as a completely new language. Nice fjords, though.
- Comment on Do babies learn languages at different rates depending on how hard the language is? 2 weeks ago:
No one mention the Norwegian butter crisis!
- Comment on YSK: Europe Can Wreak HAVOC On America Without Firing a Bullet. 2 weeks ago:
1 % of GDP from every country to a European army would make that possible without completely sacrificing national armies.
- Comment on Since men have a longer urethra, they can experience the pleasure of urinating more intensely :< 2 weeks ago:
This is why I love Lemmy!
- Comment on Opera: A Legacy Browser Lost | Why the modern hollow shell of Opera has made it impossible for me to recommend a former favorite. 2 weeks ago:
Norwegians with a clear musical preference.
- Comment on Hatred for new accounts on Lemmy is related to people's inability to debate the merit of a post on its own so they engage in ad hominem and strawmen fallacies to weaponize their weak arguments. 2 weeks ago:
I spent the first 168 hours on Lemmy understanding it, finding communities I liked and getting the vibe of the place And within those hours I learned that accounts younger than mine with shower thoughts weeks of showers long, are most often not a building block of a community, but are rather intent on irritating, disrupting or just being way out there. Often actively being an unwelcomed part of it all.
Everything is always better when people act like people towards people. And you would never need to create extra accounts to communicate with people if you acted like a decent person towards others.
So more often than not, if you are new and you already know everything, you are a walking red flag that will have to prove you are not. Because if something is too good to be true, it most likely is.
- Comment on If WWIII broke out tomorrow do you honestly believe america would win? 2 weeks ago:
And that was as part of a team, which they are actively moving to isolate from now.
- Comment on The look really says it all 4 weeks ago:
I’m sorry you feel so attacked by this meme, but the “all men” part is something you yourself add to it. The rest of us do not make the meme more than it is like that.
- Comment on Regardless of where you are in the world, the clock above the driver on buses is never accurate. 4 weeks ago:
I remember those from back in the day. Where are so old buses still in use?
- Comment on Regardless of where you are in the world, the clock above the driver on buses is never accurate. 4 weeks ago:
Take the bus to and from the train station every day, and it’s been years or even decades since it wasn’t correct. That one bus from Oslo to Wacken in 2010 was just a line though, so it happens.

The saltier the salmiakki, the better!
- Comment on Denmark becomes first country in world to end letter delivery 5 weeks ago:
In the Scandics, only commercials are usually sent in the mail, everything else has moved online through national services and banks.
- Comment on Denmark becomes first country in world to end letter delivery 5 weeks ago:
The same is on its way in Norway.
- Comment on Now just throw your hands in the air.....and wave em like you just don't care! 1 month ago:
The sun is rising tomorrow at 9:15 and sets 15:14. Midnight starts at 16 as you leave work and the only daylight is seen from the lunchroom windows.
- Comment on Now just throw your hands in the air.....and wave em like you just don't care! 1 month ago:
These temperatures are just sad. Makes the dark days even darker too.

It’s so weird seeing wintery pics from everywhere while there is plus degrees all over Norway like it’s still September.
