- Comment on Why do European Leftist call their government's right wing despite having free healthcare? 2 days ago:
Left vs Right depends entirely on where the centre lies. Even our (norway) most right-leaning loon party is for public health care.
- Comment on If the USA and China goes to war, how likely will Chinese-Americans end up in "internment camps" like what happened to Japanese-Americans during WW2? 2 days ago:
Technically true, though. The connotation paints a wildly incorrect picture, but Japan does consist of islands in the pacific…

Gold connectors are a waste of money. Regular N or PL259 are fine, just cover them with some acid free dielectric grease.
Source: The amount of ships antennae I’ve installed with cable termination is in the hundreds.
- Comment on LC vibe check 3 days ago:
No need for ex0ensive coax. Rg214 is great and reasonably priced. As for the antenna, if you have a balance, trash will do just fine - just make sure it’s the correct amount/length of trash for the frequency you’re working with.
Source: I used the gutters on my previous house to listen in on maritime HF DSC transmissions from around the world.
- Comment on How much are additional lemmy instances needed/wanted beyond what we have at present? 5 days ago:
Do you mean communities? I’m a certified technocrat myself, so I’m all in favor of more knowledgefight, but my question is more about instances/servers. Decentralization is always good, but I was just wondering if Lemmy is already centralized “enough” based on its current usage stats.
- Comment on How much are additional lemmy instances needed/wanted beyond what we have at present? 5 days ago:
Yes. European, to be specific.
- Comment on How much are additional lemmy instances needed/wanted beyond what we have at present? 5 days ago:
Interesting point. I’ll take .onion into consideration.

I know. I’m seriously considering making it invite-only, or adk nicely via Matrix. No e-mail needed, but joining won’t be easy either.
And with two rules:
- Don’t behave in a way that results in a ban.
- Common sense applies.

- Comment on What efforts would it take to strip the name Americans from the folks inhabiting the US? 6 days ago:
I used to work with a Canadian (From Vancouver, iirc) who used to emphasize “North American” when people made the wrong assumption. I guess it makes sense once the focus is on region/continent instead of country.
- Comment on Should visitors to a country (tourist / visa-holders / people staying temporarily) have the right to criticize the government? When should an immigrant have the right to criticize the government? 1 week ago:
Provides it’s legal, yes. I’ve trashtalkes trump while visiting the US, no problem there. But I keep my mouth shut when visiting Saudi Arabia.
- Comment on Does it make sense to persue higher education after 40 years ood? 1 week ago:
Wrong thought process: You’re gonna be around 50 by the time you graduate.
Right thought process: You will be 50 one day no matter what you do. You might as well aim for being 50 with a degree.

Wut? BG3 runs flawlessly out of the box for me. Pretty vanilla Mint install, Nvidia 4060.

Doesn’t sound like human trafficking. But it could easily have lead to it.
- Comment on Does not having a (mainstream) social media account make you look suspicious to the authorities? Is it a good idea to have an innocent looking social media account just to look "normal"? 2 weeks ago:
As SuperSleuths designated online fed, I can confirm that he’s also a fed. It’s a circle of online monitoring.

Septic tank -> Yank. A brit slang for American I picked up somewhere.
- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
Scandinavian here. I’ve noticed the same thing with Saunas. Not just Americans, though, but brits too.
Because having any articles of clothing on in a sauna is stupid. (I’ll defer to the Finns for a final judgement on that statement, but that’s my firm opinion, at least).
Short story: A b7nch of coworkers and I had to spend 24 hours in a Rio de Janeiro hotel for a medical exam the day after. And of course we did what any self-respicting doodlebugger would do: we went to the roof bar. After way too much beer vodka and whisky we realized that there was also a sauna there. So we did the only thing appropriate; undressed and chilled in the steam. And for us scandinavians that meant nudity. For anyone else it meant prudity. And we were an eclectic mix of nationalities.
Brit: “Uh, what are we doing here”
Swede: “We’re bonding”
Septic: “This is kinda gay…”
Norwegian: “SHUT UP, WE’RE BONDING” - Comment on how tf do you warm up plates? 2 weeks ago:
I put the plates upside down in the sink at let the hot water run over them for a little bit.
- Comment on Frankie Muniz confirms that the ‘Malcolm in the Middle’ revival starts filming in a “few days” 2 weeks ago:
Yeah, he claimed at one point to not remember much of it, but like you said, it was made up. I guess at the time he wanted people to see him as more than just Malcolm as he had other acting roles too.
But I guess things change enough in 20 years that he now is interested again.
- Comment on Frankie Muniz confirms that the ‘Malcolm in the Middle’ revival starts filming in a “few days” 2 weeks ago:
I was not aware of a revival, but I’ll be waiting patiently.
Looks like the original actors are in, except feom Dewey (Erik Per Sullivan), who gets a new actor. But at least the new actor looks a lot like him.
- Comment on How are you feeling? 2 weeks ago:
Work: Pretty chill in general, but especially nowadays
Family: Kids are healthy and growing
Hobbies: I’ve reconnected with some earlier hobbies of mine and rediscovered why I loved it to begin with.
Household: Almost done refurbishing this one room.
Money: Perfect storm of good news, such as tax return, expense claim payout, and misc other things result in me finally being able to afford a much needed car upgrade.All in all, slightly better than usual
- Comment on how do they decide where to put bus stops? 2 weeks ago:
Estimated usefulness compared up against practicality. Of course you want it where people are, and at yhe same time you want the bus to be able to stop without obstructing traffic.

I’d go as far as saying he wrangles.
