Hurricanes are not getting more frequent or violent because of climate change though. They are likely to become more rare with increasing temperature in the northern hemisphere because of even temperatures in the weather systems.

Lex Friedman ep 339 does a good job explaining the difference between more and severe weather and people settling down in huge numbers in already exposed areas.

We had a huge rainfall in Norway last year submerging a lot of properties. People said this was unprecedented and because of climate change. Only issue is that we have historical data on earlier floods, and people had settled down below the markings of earlier floods more than 100 years ago. The issue is not climate change, but regulating properties on a patch of land you know with 100% certainty will get flooded again.

I left Spotify for Tidal. But why would anyone feel obliged for free music from a commercial host? Just self host if you dont want to pay. Piracy is always morally right. It's preservation of cultural heritage.

I choose to pay for Tidal because of convenience. I refuse to pay for more than 2 streaming services. It's fairly easy for any adult to make choices like that.

This is an imagined problem and a fairly new one to.

Left handed people having to use tools and appliances designed for right handed people is an actual bigger issue.

I hope they go for hindu swastikas just to mess with them.

Did Spez trademark "im just a little shit pig" too?

This whole thing is bait.

Anyone engaging on any side of the debate are fools. Any topic antagonizing half the population will somehow stir up some noise.

It's like saying all women are bad at sport because they don't train hard enough. It's ignorant and serves only the purpose of creating a divide in the population.

Stop engaging in the divide.

Their business plan is forcing people to create a free account and shut people out from sales?

Being an Executive in a huge Corp must be the easiest job in the world. How can you come up with this idea, and get paid for it?

Well. The war took 20.000 lives daily. The bombs took about 140k if i recall right.

If the war lasted 7 more days it would even out. The bombs ended it instantly.

The Japanese doctrine was to fight to the very last man, woman and child.

The Japanese are like everyone else. Only more. They had some powerful cultural settings to be able to do what they did.

I'm so fucking tired.

It's estimated the fishing industry is losing around 400 metric tonnes of fishing gear into Norwegian waters every year.

Now we are punished for this by attaching the stupid caps to the bottles. Why are we not able to fix problems in this society hellbent for self destruction?

Why are every problem pushed down on the working class just wanting to enjoy a soda in this capitalistic hellscape.

Sadly our politicians are slowly privatizing public services and making public services worse.

Police and medical services are getting reduced on a yearly basis.

We are selling our independence to the EU by letting other markets control the price of our electricity. Starting new industries relying on cheap electricity was a unique feature for us. We are making aluminium in small towns far away from large cities. Starting new plant will not be possible in the future.

Corruption and nepotism between politicians and industries are being exposed more often than before.

It's nice living in Norway. But our politicians and capitalists have decided that this should come to an end. Norway's peak has been reached.

The race to the bottom has begun years ago.

Had he just said that NATO countries are failing their duty as a member as they're not paying the agreed amount of money for the alliance he would actually sound sane. Most Europeans agree to that. The governments have been slacking for years, and now there is a war. Again.

Instead he talks like a lunatic. Fuck that guy.

It's a lie spun out from a truth.

There have been issued cat litter to schools. The reason is in case of a lock down due to a school shooting the kids can urinate and defacate somewhere.

It's incredibly sad. The gun nuts believe it's their right to shoot up a school, but they won't allow cat litter to be issued to the class rooms.

Obviously.

We will have a lot to learn from this war when it's done. It's the first war in a while were two developed countries fight eachother.

No country has "avoid getting a grenade dropped by a drone into your trench" in their training program. But they will have to after this war.

The instructors should adjust the training after every course if the Ukrainian officers advice them too. If they don't they fail as instructors.

What the west could provide early on is to relieve the Ukrainian army with a lot of the training so they could focus on this new threat. As they have.
