That's true. But since now it's all messed up shit that you can't fix yourself they're on fairly equal line there.

Kusimulkku ,

Are those two things actually important?

For some people? Absolutely.

Kusimulkku ,

Always where? There's a bazillion different rules about this depending on where you live

Customers attack those who buy Android

“Yeah ‘cunt’ seems about right”

oh

You know what they say, if it barks like a dog, it’s legally a dog

Sounds a lot like what municipalities in Finland are doing. A lot of the cities have city owned rental properties and actively develop land as part of city planning.

Kusimulkku ,

Rent controls for private rents can be tricky. Sometimes it leads to money paid under the counter on top of rent, which is of course undesirable in a few ways. But having publicly owned (municipal etc) rental properties are an easier way to push rents down. But that also has a lot of trickiness in it.

Another Chromium skin

In 2016, Opera, developed in Norway, became a subsidiary of an investment group led by a Chinese consortium.

The company released a gaming-oriented version of the browser, Opera GX, in 2019, and a blockchain-focused Opera Crypto Browser into public beta in January 2022. In April 2023, the company announced a major overhaul to the browser called Opera 100 and code-named "Opera One", adding a new user interface and several AI-related features.

Opera users also have access to Opera News, a news app based on an AI platform.

Uhhh

I love gen-Z's attitude towards corporate culture ( lemmy.world )

i recently lost my job and it’s horrible being in the ‘unemployed’ class – you’re made to feel worthless, you have to take advice from people, perfectly well meaning of course, that are basically encouragement on digging your own grave - i love being in the position where i have to do some fake elizabethian courting...

Kusimulkku ,

How is the cost of living in comparison?

Kusimulkku ,

Clearly they don’t know about Hyperion books

Kusimulkku ,

If this picture was taken in the US or Canada, I would be panicked for OP

Same tbh.

Kusimulkku ,

As is tradition

Kusimulkku ,

And then you realize the person you’re arguing about politics with is some literal 14-year-old

Kusimulkku ,

It depends on the subject. Generally you’d want some life experience or education on the subject.

I’m using Activities as beefed up workspaces to better separate personal stuff and work stuff. And to have different icons and wallpapers. It can be handy and useful on a psychological level imo to have a work activity where I just stick to work and have my work tools in favourities and taskbar and when I’m taking a break or stopping for the day, I can easily switch to free time activity. And I can seamlessly jump between the two and stop what I’m doing and leave everything open without crowding the taskbar or something.

So consider this blog post notice that the feature is at risk of being eventually removed if people don’t step up to contribute technical work to either fix existing bugs, or else overhauling the feature to work differently.

I’d be sad to see it removed completely. I hope they keep it, even if it is left to that “power user” niche.

Personally, I’d like to see Activities morph into a feature whereby each activity has a separate set of settings and config data, but access to all the same user files. On top of that, you would be able to configure individual apps you use in multiple activities (like music players) to use shared settings and config data.This way it would basically be the “profiles” feature that many web browsers have now, but applied automatically to any and all apps you want.

This could be very cool.

Kusimulkku ,

Exactly the same case for me.

Kusimulkku ,

I’m so fucking tired reading articles about boomers this, millenials that, zoomies this.

Kusimulkku ,

Well this is one reason why young voters aren’t taken seriously. They don’t vote or basically waste their vote so no reason to pander or even campaign for their votes.

And then they wonder why they’re not a focus hah.

Kusimulkku ,

You think Trump would do better or worse in this situation? Because those are the two options Americans get, as much as it sucks.

Kusimulkku ,

You could do both. You’d hopefully get the less shitty guy to win while hoping that the outside organizing works out.

Kusimulkku ,

Has the organizing been working out at all? Yeah. That’s why you’d do both in the slim chance it works.

And do you think the other guy is any better? Less shit option doesn’t mean a good one. Just less shit.

Kusimulkku ,

As I said, fo both, no?

Trojan Horse - A mythological, giant wooden horse, supposedly used by the Greeks to invade the city of Troy. Actual horses are composed, like any other animal, out of meat, bone, and other tissues and bodily fluids.[citation needed] In addition, the interior of the Trojan Horse was composed of Greek warriors rather than horse innards.

Lmao

Now that we’re in NATO I’m all for it

Kusimulkku ,

I don’t think they’ve been proven in any real sense to satisfactorily bypass the insane defences those carriers have. They’re boasted as sorta wunderwaffen at this point lol

America does not have hypersonic missiles and keeps failing their prototype tests.

I don’t know how big of a priority it is for them, considering the situation Russia, China and Iran have with aircraft carriers

Kusimulkku ,

Well we in Finland joined NATO because of Russia. Same for most of Eastern Europe.

I’m quite glad US spends a shitload on defence tbqh. Way too much, but it’s not out of my pocket…

Kusimulkku ,

Afghans beating British Empire, USSR and the US/NATO. Who is the madlad that goes next for it, it would be China’s turn to have a crack at it imo

Kusimulkku ,

We joined because Russia attacked Ukraine. We neighbor Russia. Seemed real enough to us.

Eastern Europe obviously knows more about this than even us.

Kusimulkku ,

Ukraine wasn’t in NATO. That’s the point.

Kusimulkku ,

They tried to join NATO and they didn’t let them.

When was that? I don’t see when they were denied membership. They wanted into a partnership program that would’ve made them a member, Russian minded president shelved that idea, it was raised again when Russia annexed Crimea and it’s still ongoing.

“At the 2008 Bucharest Summit, the Allies agreed that Georgia and Ukraine will become members of NATO in future.”

“At NATO’s 2023 Vilnius summit it was decided that Ukraine would no longer be required to participate in a Membership Action Plan before joining the alliance.”

Though IIRC you can’t join during an active conflict. That’s sorta the thing, you need to be a member beforehand to reap the benefits. When it happens, then it’s too late. That’s why after Russian attack into Ukraine, Finland and Sweden got such a hurry about it.

Finland wasn’t under any threat

I guess we felt differently.

Kusimulkku ,

I’m not sure if you meant that it was denied or just that it hasn’t become a member (yet). First one isn’t true but second one is. The process is ongoing and they’ll fairly likely become a member at some point, like mentioned.

I just do not see sufficient evidence that Finland was under a threat that was only deterred by US military spending.

We were close to NATO for a long time but felt that actual war in Europe and Russia attacking was too unlikely for us to actually join. Russia had to come and dispel that fantasy.

NATO isn’t supposed to be the only thing preventing it but it sure does bring us security that it won’t happen and if it in some unthinkable scenario did, we wouldn’t be left alone to fight it.

Looking at Russia and how they’ve generally treated their neighbors, saying that NATO has saved Eastern Europeans from trouble is a fairly believable argument IMO. Just look at those who didn’t join and what has happened with them. But of course it’s what ifs.

Kusimulkku ,

I think that goes for both, but what those opinions are obviously matters.
