You mean voicing their opinion and trying to get it across to as many people as possible?

Tell me, what did you do today?

Fuel prices hit hard of you’re a Norwegian living outside of the cities (which is the majority of Norwegians). You really need to have a car in the countryside, as both buses and trains are few and far between. There’s still plenty of fossil-fueled vehicles out here. People keep them because they either can’t afford to make the jump over to electric, don’t trust the EV’s to handle winter well enough, or because they’re worried about the technological hurdle (Norway is an aging population).

Don’t need the propaganda, we just need a completely Oslo-centric government that will happily spend money on public transit, as long as it’s in Oslo. Pretty much all the governments have been like that for most of my life.

Ah, you’re right. My goodness, couldn’t the Americans even agree with the rest of the world on make-believe silly-units?

“While we can agree that a gallon should be the nice, round sum of 32 gills, I find it ludicrous that you define it as five fluid ounces. I’m putting my foot down. In the United States, it will be the much more manageable four ounces, which will be a different size to your ounces. Nyyyaanyyaanyanyanyaaa!”

Ha. Try 2.40/litre ($11/gallon) in Norway.

Hopefully his piece of shit cronies will be behind bars too. Duterte’s national chief of police, Bato dela Rosa, has been mysteriously absent lately. I wonder why.

Yeah, he’s currently in court, so Norwegians have to endure daily news updates on that wet turd.

Positive comments like yours are like jet fuel for new parents. :)

Jailbreak your TV and install a third party launcher and SmartTube. It gave my Sony TV a new lease on life after it was almost smothered to death by ads, even on the home screen.

You are a person of culture, and I respectfully tip my hat to you. Of course, the question left unanswered is: Did it blend?

It was never about going for the worst of the worst, not in any part of the chain of command. The point was to start a war of attrition with one goal: drive out undesirables by any means necessary. Trump and his ilk have a soft spot for Putin and are taking a trick straight from his playbook: destroy enemy morale by attacking their weakest and most vulnerable.

It could be a play on words based on the root verb 切る (cut). 切ろ死 (kiroshi) could then mean something like “cut to death”, a very reassuring name for a surgical implant corporation.

The main problem with Windows (regarding GUI, there are many other issues) is that it’s never consistent. It changes with the mood of Microsoft’s execs and their need to set the trend, while at the same time having a pretty poor grasp of what the trend is. Look at Windows XP, Vista, 7 and then Win 8. Where’s the consistency? The nice thing about Linux is that you don’t have people on top telling you what the system to control your (“this”) computer will look like, whether you like it or not. On Linux, you control how your system will look, feel and behave. It’s your computer.

Known as 過労死 (karoshi) in Japan, sadly not a new concept. This is the result of the misconception that working harder will yield better results - it only leads to stagnation and ruin. Hoping that more people will realise this and initiate some change in the work culture; not only in Asia, but in the West too… The work culture in both the US, UK and many parts of the EU needs some serious overhaul.

My preferences often stray onto darker paths, but why not both? https://youtu.be/VhoHnKuf-HI

Being old and stubborn matters. ;)

Ummm, the features you described are all in Vivaldi. Browser engine is Blink (Chromium). My experience with it has been that it’s very fast and stable. I’ve used Opera since about version 6. My nostalgia is real.

The developers who wanted to keep the original philosophy of Opera alive moved on and formed Vivaldi instead. I recommend you try it. It certainly gave me a nostalgic sense of what Opera used to be, and has a lot of useful new features.

I agree! It might not be the most open one out there, but it’s still a damn fine piece of software. Basically Opera if Opera hadn’t gone the wrong way.
