Completely unrelated, in Norway we call them “crow balls” (kråkeboller)

Noone knows complaining better than I do. I’m the best complainer, and I know people in the industry that say I’m better than anyone they’ve ever met.

I’ve actually done this successfully. TSA agent knocked on it, and said no problem.

If i somehow would be stopped, I’d love to argue what is liquid or not, and what could be liquid if it’s just hot enough.

Norway has universal healthcare for everyone. Going to the ER is free. Ambulance is free. Surgery is free. Checkups and tests are heavily subsidised where we only pay a small fee (like $20). If you spend more than x-amount on fees annually, you get the fees waived for the remainder of the year.

We have health insurances, but that will only allow you to go to private clinics with less wait times. These insurances are normally paid by employers with highly skilled workers. It’s not considered to be a necessity.

The Norwegian healthcare isn’t cheap, and we pay around 35-40% income tax, and 25% VAT, but our income doesn’t dictate what type of services we’re allowed to get. Poverty is low, and crime rates are low.

Socialism works.

Probably because they are feeling like the electoral system is not working for them at the moment. Sometimes you need to tear it down completely in order to build it up properly. Trump seems to be the perfect candidate to fuck it all up, before someone else can take over the wheel.

Yes, it’s important to defend the only thing you know, even how bad it might be. 😄

Yes I know, but the voting system favours the two largest. Thats why they are large. Small parties have 0% chance og getting representatives into the houses, so they are basically irrelevant.

I understand what you are trying to say. Ultimately, there are only two to vote for. Ideally, there should be more than two parties, and more than two candidates. That’s how democracies work. What you have is a dysfunctional system that divides people in two groups, and there are no incentives to cooperate between parties. Proper voting is also suffering due to the two-party system.

In my country, the parties with the majority of votes and the ability to cooperate gets to form a government. We also try to make it easy to get people to vote, insted of your system of gerrymandering.

I didn’t vote in the primary, because I’m not American.

It amazes me that one of the largest countries in the world, with the most diverse demographics, can only chose between two candidates. This is not democracy. It’s a shit show that has been going on for far too long.

Do you have border control between states? It’s basically the same thing with schengen. No control between countries on the “inside”, but rigorous control to get in.

Licensing: the same code i compiled yesterday doesn’t compile today.

Artificial Intelligence is a bad word for this technology. Why are we not using the proper name for it? Machine Learning. Its not intelligent, and it might not be for a long time. Feed it crap, and you’ll receive crap.

Considering that a 12V battery has an internal resistance of 20 milliohms, the potential current through this thing would be approximately 600A.

It might be too hot to handle (pun intended)

If you are against people who are against fascists, wouldn’t that indirectly say you don’t care about fascism? And that’s how fascism gets a foothold. And with that logic, you indirectly support fascism.

The problem isn’t the LED itself. The problem is engineers that read the datasheets where it shows which forward current they need. What they forget to think about is that the recommended forward current is for max brightness, so they slap whichever resistor they need, and never give it another thought.

Whenever I design a LED circuit that is only used as an indicator, I always make it 10% or less than recommended, because I do not need to burn away my retina when I test the boards.

Thank you kind sir!

I don’t think you can call it sex when it’s forced entry.

Ever hear of Daewoo Heavy Industries? They make excavators, railcars and ships
