Please don't try to machine translate to my local language. The translations are terrible or outright incorrect.

Well, at least the Finnish laws against it aren't enforced at all and public drinking is very common. Judging by what I've seen, it seems to be the case in Sweden too.

As someone who lives and regularly drives in Helsinki, I feel that most kilometers I drive are on roads that allow 80km/h. The 30km/h limits are mostly in residential areas, close to schools and the city center (where traffic is the limiting factor and it's better to take the public transit).

So while 30km/h might be the limit for most of the roads, you mostly run into those only in the beginnings and ends of trips.

Thank you for the illustration! I was sitting here, wondering that the whole system sounds paradoxical but seeing it drawn down with the arrows really helped grasp how this works!

Not for watching tv, but you might need the entire room for doing stretching, doing yoga or other exercises.

That sounds awfully much like something I might be doing. Do you have any specific books you would recommend?

I'm not sure of other militaries but the Finnish army indeed uses very yurt-like tents, "puolijoukkueteltta"[0].

I used to have a piece of string on my desk as a type of fiddle toy. Much quicker to learn knots by tying them than trying to memorize the instructions.

What makes it superior? Is it easier to adjust or untie?

Not sure why this was downvoted. I switched phones yesterday and transferring signal with the direct wi-fi transfer was easier than transferring whatsapp, I do know that that used to not be the case.

How well do Signal groups work these days? I tried moving friend groups to signal some years ago and even managed to do that for some large ones but the group chat just didn't really work. Keys changed and somehow the group got into a state where some people got messages and others didn't and the only way to fix it seemed to be creating a new group which, for large groups, isn't really an option and everyone ended up going back to whatsapp.

I'd love to use signal with more people but that, and the ux around changing phones means I can't really recommend it to anyone but the most technical of my friends.

Isn't the whole point of e2e that you don't need to worry about what runs on the server, unless you're worried about metadata leakage.

It does, but as far as I've understood, FPGA's are much simpler and more regular so hiding backdoors into those would be harder than hiding one into a hardware cpu.

In what part of the world? I haven't seen one in Finland since maybe the early 2000's.

There's at least this: https://hackaday.io/project/167446-diy-inkjet-printer

But as others have mentioned, commercial printers are really cheap, especially for how complicated they are to replicate so there's not much motivation to make them.

There was actually a whole genre of action games in the Finnish indie game scene in the 90's, cave flying games (luolalentelypelit) that usually had similar physics from which Noita (Finnish for witch) clearly draws inspiration from.

Although most of the cave flying games were from the dos era, probably the most famous one, wings, had a "new" version [1] made that runs on windows and linux.

I know it's not quite that simple but isn't OpenSSL exactly an example of how a bug in open source software was found and fixed? Of course it took a while and the software was already extremely widely used at that point but bugs happen and at least it's not just lying around unfixed. I can't remember bugs in closed software getting the same kind of exposure.

Hey, I've been interested in the twiddler for quite a while but I've been hesitant to buy one since I haven't seen much evidence of anyone being actually proficient in using them, most of the videos on youtube are just unboxings and first impressions.

How fast can you type with it? Can it be easily used for key-combinations using modifier keys and such?

Have you tried using your thumbprints? For me, they never fail to unlock my phone when the other fingers do. OTHO, I only climb plastic so YMMV.

If you're in a place with no noise from cars, you're most probably well outside the range of multiprop drones.

Just bought some in Finland.

It's not an entirely new thing, there was this article[1] with accompanying code[2] from 2016. It just used to be quite unwieldy to use (a separate script to deform the gcode).

I'm pretty sure it does mean lossy codec. The

i.e. no /percievable/ loss in quality.

would be pretty redundant otherwise.

I don't know, I'm almost 30 and never got the license and know lots of people who never did either, my wife included. Not having a license has been slightly annoying maybe around 3 times in my life. Granted, the public transport in my city (Helsinki) is great, if I moved away I'd probably end up getting the license.

The planes will stop running pretty soon after we stop taking them. Running them isn't cheap!

I took this as an argument on why we shouldn't rely on one type of sensor alone, as it's easier to fool with tricks like this.

Is this a joke about toxicity/chemistry or is the field of chemistry known to be socially more toxic than other fields?

Yes, the only age requirement is being at least 18.

No. Anyone can be accused of rape, accusations should not matter.

Copyleft licenses are more about the freedom of users in the future, instead of now. If all software was mit/bsd licensed, there wouldn't be any need for gpl as anyone could modify and redistribute any piece of software freely. Gpl is intended to force us toward that state in the future.
