Imagine any European suggesting that states seceding from the union be rewarded and the rest punished. It would be so bizarre.

This being Florida I bet she kidnapped a geologist

FFS Støjberg skred, og tog alle de fremmedfjenske med sig. Nu forsøger venstre så at skaffe dem tilbage med det her udspil.

Hvorfor ikke bare slå en annonce op?

"Politik til salg. Har du en stor nok gruppe med dig, og er jeres holdning ikke til hinder for at de rige kan blive rigere, så har vi polikerne til dig."

Venstre kunne spare en god sum penge, hvis de gik sammen med alle de andre rygradsløse midterpartier om annoncen.

And then, being the law abiding citizen, I tried to relinquish my explosive fluids... Turns out they didn't mean diarrhea. I think I made several lists that day, not sure which though.

So you'll be joining the job market? Good news is that you will be free of turnitin...

WTF banning trans gamers because of what? Because beating on trans people takes focus from your own gender identity insecurity? Gtfo

Also, and I know this isn't the point. But the word "women" is a noun, the adjective is "female". I know that some misogynistic assholes use "female" as a noun, which from a linguistical POV is just as bad, and it's why some people don't like using "female" as an adjective. But... And it is as I'm writing this, that it dawns on me, that if people should be able to transform, then so should language... Dagnabbit! I just don't like it when people change the language, but I'll wear a rainbow pin, I'll and defend trans people... What does that make me?

On a website which has AI slop wondering what's wrong with AI unenthusiasts. Guess the picture is just icing on the get-that-icky-AI-drool-off-of-me cake

And here I was thinking this was about emacs and lisp. Yougster complaining about not knowing how to quit Vi smh they have never experienced the horrors of emacs

Somebody should probably tell them where botox comes from... And how silicone is useful in both facial plastic surgery and car doors.

Er løsningen VPN når man vil undgå, at ens perverse søgninger på pornhub bliver koblet til ens person, med det her makværk af et sporingsværktøj? Næh, for det er næste fjende for magthaverne https://www.techradar.com/vpn/vpn-privacy-security/vpn-services-may-soon-become-a-new-target-of-eu-lawmakers-after-being-deemed-a-key-challenge

Kryptering bliver formodentlig generelt forbudt, hvis der ikke er en bagdør. Signal og andre end to end krypterede platforme fik et angreb mere i dag https://www.dr.dk/nyheder/indland/ingen-tager-telefonen-naar-politiet-efterforsker-sager-om-lejesoldater

Hvordan er vi havnet i en situation, hvor befolkningen ikke griber fakler, høtyve og guillotiner når man står overfor sådan et angreb på privatlivets fred?

Looking at this map and its indecipherable piecharts made me go "huh most of the capitals are actually livable" ... then I compared them with the only place where I have an idea of the rent, Copenhagen, and WTF?

I wouldn't even move to Copenhagen, how the fuck are y'all affording these other prices? Undisclosed income? WTF?!?

Nope, but she might if the offer in the table with Trump was "resign now so we can have a special election and you don't have a voice, or we'll destroy you so hard that you'll never even win an election for town cryer of Bumfuck, Arizona"

Or maybe whoever pressured MTG actually threatened physical damage like "you know Marge, you have seemed more and more erratic lately, even for a Jewish space laser weirdo. You better resign now so you don't risk committing suicide"

I don't think that any language is generally worse for emotions than others.

Ruling something out though, without having anything but your own opinions to justify it, seems like scientific misconduct.

But in writing that, I had to search my vocabulary for 15 seconds for "opinion", and I spend considerably longer to translate "scientific misconduct" without being satisfied.

So I will maintain my hypothesis that speaking a second language, adds an emotional shield by distancing the speaker.

Jokes on you, they're hiring for "World's sexiest Lemmy user"

I found myself writing an email to a Norwegian recipient the other day. I wrote in English, despite Danish and Norwegian bokmål being >95% the same.

It waters out our native languages when we do this, and it is, as you say, in favour of bad English. I find even the most English proficient Danish teens lacking in their vocabulary. Pronunciation is good, but they can express themselves.

I've given it a fair bit of thought. I think that the kids choose English, because it's emotionally distancing. Saying something in English doesn't carry the same weight, as using their mother's tongue. Simply because they don't feel the words the same. Occasionally I will catch myself using English for my internal dialogue, especially when I'm thinking about something that causes me emotional distress.

Is this officially the first bad thing to happen to Iceland that isn't attributed to Denmark? I knew AI was coming to takes all of our jobs, but this is some black mirror level stuff.

Don't lick, that's dangerous, but nobody said "don't eat 60/40 solder". So go for it. Just remember to put a few sheets of paper in the bowl before taking a dump, otherwise you might break it.

I whole heartedly agree with you on the virtue of simplicity in design, and this heater is a bit over the top for its basic function. But we wanted something that

1. Could do 400V
2. We could control remotely
3. Was available for sale in Denmark in case if an RMA

and at the time that narrowed it down to either the Clea or neo series from adax, and I believe one other product line from a second manufacturer. The remote control part was really hard to find in 400V.

A relay would do the job, but they also wear out faster and the sound is noticeable.

While writing that, I found myself thinking about how significant the life span difference is. So I did some back-of-the-envelope calculations.

The defective heater had been installed for roughly 2100 days. Sometime during April we shut the heaters off, and they're not powered up again until October, so let's call it 50% of the year. The schedule for the heaters is usually two power on cycles daily. Again let's call it 50% of the time. The house is pretty OK insulated, but let's say that the heating element is powering up 4 times each hour. In reality it's probably closer to 25-30% and twice an hour, so I'll use that as the lower bounds for this calculation.

1050 days is 25200 hours, meaning that the heaters will have done between 12k and 50k power cycles in the almost 6 years of operation. I've seen relays weld shut before 10k, but MTBF for suitably rated relays on RS starts at 50k power cycles.

So maybe a relay could actually do the job. But then there'd still be the issue of the noise, which, while negligible, could still be annoying for some, especially in a bedroom.

I could rewire the heating circuit, but doing so without the backing of an authorized electrician would be illegal. I'm already on thin ice just installing the heater by self.

But the thought has crossed my mind, as I have noticed there being an order of magnitude more 230V heaters on the market than 400V. On top of having to rewire everything, I'd have to put in a new 3 phased breaker, otherwise I'd be pulling way too much current... Let's just say that this 1200W heater isn't the only one we have in operation in my house.
