Finns Party members aren’t literal Nazis (or at least most of them aren’t)

Just the one or two who call themselves nazis

That’s when you add a w.h.p. (with high probability)

I kept seeing recommendations of gimp as a photoshop alternative, so I installed it and… I was convinced that I must’ve downloaded the wrong thing. It didn’t even look like an image editor to me. I’m sure it’s a wonderful program, maybe the UI got better since then, but I ended up much happier just using paint.NET

No, no, these are expats

You get a comparison of electric vs natural gas flow in your energy bill? Wow!!

I mean, there are countries where natural gas is billed per kWh. And the OP said

And kW and kWh are still commony used measurement if you don’t use electricity. Diesel or propane heaters have labels on them on how many watts they can output right next to the fuel consumption per hour and so on.

I’m genuinely wondering if the cold war was any better than a third world war, because it still wrecked various countries in Asia, Africa and South-America

The other day I was thinking about tensions that exist in part because of British-drawn borders. Israel-Palestina, India-Pakistan. Can’t believe I forgot NI.

Lemmy shows links to all the posts about the same link (I think) so it doesn’t feel like an improvement over that

For environmental reasons I’m glad they’re not just destroying whatever they can afford to

At least quite a small proportion. And English is just one of the two official languages.

Oh right, Malta too :)

I feel like that’s just a tall tale that Feynman told the author, like most of those stories

There was this debacle, at least

I wonder if there’s a chance of getting rm -rf /* or zip bombs. Those are definitely in the training data at least.

You should also be careful with merging posts if they’re in communities with a very different comment culture. Like, merging a pro-thing and an anti-thing post isn’t going to make anyone happy. Or merging one on a meme community and one with tightly enforced rules.

Finnish group for no-fly travelling

Out of curiosity, does it always start with a boat trip?

I feel like an adjacent one is having good conversations with people from very different countries (ideally face-to-face)

Definitely agree on the “Europe is just racist in a different way.” Outside of the obvious ones (like Middle East & Africa), I’d also add racism/xenophobia against “Eastern” Europe (like Poland), which might surprise Americans because they’re still white.

It’s not just the US that has bland restaurants and/or is afraid of spice.

First time I hear this stereotype lol, I’ve only ever heard it about European countries (basically all of them that don’t border the Mediterranean)

blacks

While we’re on the topic, I think “black people” is the preferred term (in general it’s adjectives over nouns, like “gay people” vs “gays”)

Swap out The Wild Robot and Fallen Leaves for Beau is Afraid and We’re All Going to the World’s Fair and you have my list, nice
