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.
Frostbeard commented on Tory student group apologises after dancing to Nazi marching song • •
While I think it is sus, Once saw a documentary on the battle and occupation of Narvik that used a germam march for "allied victory" (it was "unser Rommel") The strange thing was that this march was used as a melody for a Norwegian nazi propaganda song.
Frostbeard commented on People doing the 30 days linux Challenge are having several problems because of Mint's old packages and technology. Why people still recommend it when there is Fedora and Opensuse with KDE and Gnome? • •
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.

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...
Frostbeard commented on What does the world think of India? • •
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?
