Hey, Viktor, what if you give 20% of your country to Putin, then perhaps he’ll agree to get the heck out of Ukraina and we can live forever in peace?

For an amusing read on how well their navy did against the Japanese, in 1905, check out Battle of Tsushima.
The Russians lost 5.045 and 21 ships (more captured and/or damaged). Japan lost 117 and 3 torpedo boats.
Here’s an entertaining video on their journey to Japan.
This reminds me of the early days of the Model S; a friend of mine was an early adopter and he himself was surprised if it went two weeks without having to bring it in for something or the other.
Oh, and the dashboards that would occasionally freeze while driving. Luckily, Tesla knew it was a piece of shit, so you could just press and hold two buttons to reboot it.
I had no idea sky daddy didn’t like haircuts. But, you know what, I’m relieved. Now I know I’m going to hell, uncertainty be gone. And… and, I can go sporting a fresh trim.
A fast one, too, barely managed to catch it on camera.
I assumed it was a coin operated telephone for professionals.
Norwegian name is revebjelle, which translates to “fox bell”.
Those sons of bitches… my childhood could’ve been very… different.
I’m not familiar with the story you’re referring to, but typically a hard landing doesn’t necessitate a search/rescue team. Unless it’s a very hard “landing” into the side of a mountain, for example.
I haven’t really played around with anything else since Sync for Lemmy was released, because I’m perfectly happy with it.
Personally I find this creature absolutely adorable.
Eating a plane really accelerates the ageing process.
“Fitte” is a norwegian word for pussy, so apparently that was all it took to get a giggle out of me today.
Gamle Aker Kirke, church from 1150 (Oslo).
It’s disgusting how many things people can still do without being exposed to advertising.
Loudspeakers: Imagine how many speakers there are in the world, and how often they’re not playing anything. All loudspeakers should always play ads if not utilized for anything else.
Edit: I went hiking last weekend, and while out there the silence was deafening. Out in the wild, where it’s relatively quiet, we’d only need to place speakers every few hundred meters to efficiently broadcast ads to hikers and such.
A couple of years ago I interviewed a guy living in SF who wanted to come over to Norway, to work as a software developer. I asked him why he wanted to make the move and he went on about how he had to get outta there, how he had lost all faith in the country and did not see a good future for himself if he stayed.
At the time I thought to myself that he was being a bit dramatic, but the more I read about how the US is treating its people these days the more I think understand what he was on about.
He made the move, btw.
That roof looks like it could potentially be a bit… leaky. Good thing the inspector is up there to take a look.
It could star on The Muppets.
No, but I’ve been to Svalbard. Very dark during winter, polar bears. Would visit again.
