Someone thought me the concept of a legal fiction and I still think about it.

Land ownership, companies, nation states, citizenship: all exist because we agree that it does.

Wouldn't that line of thinking imply that women don't have any agency about anything? Whatever they decide can be framed as a reaction to internalized fear.

Not to mention that gender roles also affect men.

I feel like there are some missed opportunities

  • Sensors that don't work because a proprietary driver is missing
  • Having to add repositories to get wifi working
  • Voice assistant that only works if you know terminal command parameters by heart
  • More tool windows
  • More xorg.conf to get displays working
  • A flame war about the relative benefits of obscure infrastructure componemts
  • 7 package managers, 3 if which are needed to install 90% of needed software. The remaining 10% somehow still needs to be installed via shell scripts
  • Completely new UI in each version, still looks like it was designed by german ocelots in the 90s

Many of those weapons are very dangerous when fired indoors...

Technically yes, but in practice the goal is to make the practical arrangements implementing of Article 5 security quarantees possible. There is not much use of NATO support, if alliance forces can't operate in Finland in a practical way.

I am sure there are new operational agreements of similar nature will be made between Finland and Sweden as well as Finland and Estonia. That said, there is already a significant degree of defence cooperation between Finland and Sweden.

Finland is also already part of the british led JEF, and I would be surprised if the Nato framework would not change the nature of that cooperation.

The only correct way to bring it up, is to hand make your wife a beautiful shoe storage rack.

I feel personally attacked.

I have tried making a framework once, and was annoyed with myself for more than one of those reasons.

This shirt stuff sometimes happens in Finland too, in spite of the majority of the population speaking English. A major supermarket chain was selling a child sized t-shirt with the print:

Pop my 🍒

Fucking really...

You should all go file a complaint with a data protection agency.

The thread in the linked social network suggests concentrating the complaints to the Irish DPC: https://forms.dataprotection.ie/contact

It does, and it's old, but it's still a good story.

Lithium batteries are happiest between 20 and 80% state of charge. You should not store them outside of that range. Charging a little often also doesn't hurt your battery like many seem to believe.

Charging while cold is bad, but storing in cold is good.

Also, NiMh and NiCd batteries are different tha Lithium based ones. Check what type of battery you have. Phones and EVs are almost always lithium though.

There may be challenges involved in controlling the shape, location and number of regrown teeth.

To what extent..?
