Where did the "two birds on stone" come from, because I see zero connection.

Trump is an evil evil man, anybody who can't see that is a sociopath or worse.

Yes I do, it seems to me Linux is beginning to grow a bit faster than it used to.
Desktop use is of course declining, so it will be a larger share of a smaller market.
But enthusiasts have seen Linux as the better options for decades now, and gamers are coming over too, and use cases that require optimal security, and even some workstation tasks are done better on Linux because Linux has a superior kernel for multi threading.

But it will take some time, probably at least 10 years.

I hope Trump suffers before he dies.
It's a horrible thing to think that way, and I didn't use to do that for anybody 9 years ago.
But Trump is so horrible, and has caused so much pain, that he deserves Biblical hell.
Trump is beyond evil, you can be 100 times better than Trump and still be evil. Trump is on the level of Hitler and Stalin.
In history we very rarely see leaders act this evil, even when they are evil. Netanyahu is his equal, and is also expressing sadistic tendencies and complete immorality in his polices.

But what is worse, is that those two are elected in democratic countries. Meaning that they are not the real problem, but "just" symptoms of sick societies.
Unfortunately USA has a long line of politicians in the republican party to carry on with what Trump is doing, that are equally without conscience. Maybe they are more intelligent, and maybe that will make them even more dangerous, or maybe it will make them hold back a bit, because they know being evil can make you unpopular.

Yes Iran was a problem, but they were not THEE problem. On a global scale that is Trump, Putin and Netanyahu. Or rather USA, Russia and Israel. Because the problem is not only in the top.

Weird thing to say after spending so much time and effort telling me how doing what I like is wrong and unpopular,

I have no idea what your problem is, I never claimed in any way it is wrong, I also showed that it used to be way more popular than it is today.
I just state the reasons I think it kind of fell out of fashion.
I have no idea why you would be butthurt about any of this?

I suppose you mean "minus" instead of minutes.
I suspected something of that sort. Back then using teaspoons was considered somewhat casual.
And now you find the old ways kind of neat. Yes the old cake fork has a slight advantage in that it can be used as a fork, and it typically has an edge to "cut" if it's a proper one. But in reality those "advantages" don't really matter, at least not for most people.
A cake can be cut with a teaspoon just as well, and for most cakes the fork function doesn't really work, and in my experience the fork is used as a spoon anyway.

But hey, have fun. Do what you like. 😀

“NATO faces a ‘very bad’ future if allies do not help,”

That already happened when you threatened Canada and Greenland. NATO is no-longer top priority, cooperation around USA is.
Example of that is the EU SAFE program, where also countries outside EU are participating like Norway Canada and Japan.
https://defence-industry-space.ec.europa.eu/eu-defence-industry/safe-security-action-europe_en

Another example from just this weekend, is the Nordic counsel, that had a meeting on arctic interests, with Canada, Norway, Sweden, Denmark and Iceland participating. Where all agreed on strategies for the defense of the Arctic region, and it was stressed that all supported the defense of Greenland.
Another forum where USA is absent, despite also having arctic interests. But are unwelcome because of the threats against Greenland and Canada.

So the very bad future is already here, and NATO countries are preparing to be able to defend themselves without USA.
And this very bad future, is ONLY because of USA. USA has torn up hundreds of agreements with allies, and threatened with invasion, and is waging a trade war, and constantly threatening all sorts of bad things that will happen if we don't do as USA says.
This is just another example, USA wants to force former allies into their illegal war against Iran. And is threatening consequences for not helping USA out of the mess they created.

I must have missed that memo

Maybe you are not old enough, such things used to be way more important half a century ago.

[–] Buffalox@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

What a sad story, and what is also sad is how Americans keep accepting that USA has become the exact thing they used to fight against!

I know that there are protests, but still this is allowed to continue to happen, and it is ONLY possible because the people allow it!
So although there are good Americans that are against it, the vast majority don't care enough to actually prevent it.

[–] Buffalox@lemmy.world 3 points 1 day ago (6 children)

A small fork is generally considered the "correct" cutlery for cake in Denmark.
Obviously a teaspoon serves the purpose just as well, and those are standard to have.
And we are not a pretentious people, so many don't even have the forks. Since they are pretty useless for anything else. So the small forks are basically superfluous.

[–] Buffalox@lemmy.world 1 points 1 day ago

And with the Russian economy collapsing, Putin is desperate for that money!
Desperate enough to sacrifice an ally (Iran).
I wouldn't be surprised that the reason USA attacked Iran, was to help Putin.

[–] Buffalox@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Absolutely, Putin hates USA, and will do everything he can to undermine USA.
Trump's friendliness towards Russia and Putin is 100% one way only.

My comment that I can't see if I am not logged in to Youtube:

@buffalox8492 for 2 timer siden (redigeret) How is that piece of sh*t car street legal in Norway?
The design conflicts with standards that protect soft/vulnerable road users as well as other cars and the driver, The sharp edges are a hazard to soft traffic, and, the extreme rigidity lacking crumbling zones and weight of the car is an insane danger to everybody, even including the driver. And there are numerous safety issues with the technology that you depend on to drive it.and something as simple as the lights on the car are simply designed wrong for safety!
I thought Norway observed EU standards, but apparently not. Shame on them for allowing this car on their roads. Norwegians should demand to have it removed ASAP! For their own safety. Be warned, This is probably the worst most dangerous car to drive in modern times!

This video explains some of the problems that make it illegal in UK:

Across its full range, Tesla sold just 83 vehicles in total in January 2026, marking an 88 percent decline compared to the same period last year.

With little innovation and lacking new models, Tesla has decided to cut prices again, this time the price of the model 3 is cut by 10%.

This may be to regain some of the lost marketshare. But it may also be because they simply have too much stock.
Cutting production is expensive, and obviously producing just to stockpile unsold products is expensive too.

I have no doubt that this price cut is an act of desperation, not a result of being competitive. Tesla is losing money no matter if they cut production or they cut the prices or they stock up on unsold product.

Whichever is the case, I had a good laugh that the Swasticars are so hard to sell Tesla has to cut prices yet again, and that's despite inflation.

Allegedly the profitability on a Tesla car was recently estimated at just 2%, so cutting the price by 10% is going to hurt for them.

Here's a link to a story about it by a major news outlet in Denmark:

Anton Gerashchenko on Bluesky story about a strike at a nuclear plant with documentation:

https://bsky.app/profile/antongerashchenko.bsky.social/post/3m56ndvbujs2i
The post contains video from the situation.

As I've been posting many times before, many workers in Russia are behind on payments. People working in factories being 3 months behind is not uncommon.
Anna from Ukraine explains the situation here. She is a good source IMO, because her English is excellent, and being Ukrainian she understands Russian, and makes frequent news updates about the Ukrainian war from various perspectives.

Anna Danylchuk:

Inside Russia on youtube was first to report on the Russian population beginning to have had enough to a degree they are actually beginning to complain:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EoR5_bJywWQ

I've claimed before I don't think Putin will last through the winter, and I see this as the first signs that the Russian people is about to have had enough.
The story reported by Anna and Gerashchenko tells that the workers are at least 2 months behind on wages, they were promised transportation to work, something that is important because of the lack of fuel, and public transport becoming unreliable. But they do not get the promised transportation. They were also promised 1 hot meal per day, but do not receive that either.
Finally in their homes, they are out of water and heat.

This is the economic and infrastructure collapse many have predicted was inevitable, that is now beginning to really show. And it isn't even really winter yet!

PS: The moderators removed my previous post with false accusations, so here it is posted again according to their demands.

FDM warns of errors in several models from Tesla, and FDM has now been successful by the Danish Road Safety Authority. FDM has previously described that there are several cases of significant veil in the rear suspension and in the steering column of the popular Model 3.

The Danish Road Safety Authority has stated that the motorists' interest organization, FDM, rightly did not approve two Tesla Model 3 by sight after the car owners had independently complained about the demand for omsyn.

FDM said in a statement.

In both cases, the sight results were due to "too much veil in bushings in rear-wheel suspension".

However, Tesla found no faults and thought the electric cars should have been approved, which led to complaints and the Traffic Agency's review. Many Teslas have "veil in the bushing"

The agency concludes that the cars had a significant veil and that the vision had been carried out correctly in both cases.

Earlier in the year, the FDM warned that there are many Teslas that have veils in bushings in the rear-wheel suspension and in the steering column. See also FDM comes with call for Tesla owners

Veils in rear suspensions mean that there is a looseness or abnormal movement in the parts that connect the car's rear wheel to the car itself.

This applies to both the Model 3 and Model Y. According to FDM, around 37,000 Model 3 and more than 40,000 Model Y have been registered in Denmark. The error is seen on newer cars

Usually you first see the problem on older cars, which have driven many kilometers, but FDM has seen several models with the error early in the life expectancy of the cars.

It creates doubts about the safety of cars, writes FDM, who has contacted Tesla to get the company to solve the problems. See also Tesla gets fined for flawed marketing

"We expect Tesla to help drivers, as it is not fair that the consumer has an additional cost of repair and possibly overhaul, because the car has a fault it shouldn't have," said Lone Otto, area manager in FDM's technical advice.

At the beginning of the year, FDM said that almost one in four Model 3 from the year 2020, which last year was for inspection, failed - among other things because of veils.

For other electric cars, the dump percentage was nine.
