I once went through 8 or so rounds of picking busses…

Source: Look at which instance I’m on.

Yeah, I only made the switch 3 months ago for this reason. I don’t see how it is hilarious either.

Well, it does sound like you just read the headlines…

Yeah, it is nearly impossible to dismantle a belief system like this. Just like it is with extreme (both left and right) political beliefs.

I haven’t heard that report, but I’d guess it’s the Russians that are reporting that. Now why would they have an incentive to say that? ;)

The US and Turkey support different factions in the Syrian civil war. This video from Real Life Lore goes in depth with Turkey’s position in NATO, and IIRC it does mention about Syria:

A U.S. F-16 fighter jet shot down an armed Turkish drone that was operating near American troops in Syria Thursday after several warnings, according to U.S. officials.

The shootdown came after repeated communications to stay away from U.S. ground troops near al Hasakah, in northeastern Syria.

I try to say it when I have something to say though. I didn’t always bother on Reddit.

In Danish, “bor” only refers the drill bit. If you asked someone “kan du række mig boret” you would be handed the drill bit, or possibly be pointed towards the table (bord/bordet, with silent d).

In denmark we call it a “boremaskine”, literally “drilling machine”…

Well, not quite…

You will have to use some translation to read the article though.

Definitely Lego Star Wars (original trilogy of course). My brother and I played it almost endlessly on our PS2 when we were children. Later on we got it on both PS3 and 4, and I even bought it in steam a few years ago for the nostalgia. On the computer I naturally use my PS4 controller for it.

Pixel 6 with Firefox. I use the default os, as the Danish ID isn’t supported on rooted devices, and you pretty much need it for everything.

I know. That is partly why I don’t intend to buy one before they support the EU.

I am not in the market for a new laptop at the moment, but my next one is very likely to be a Framework. At least if they decide to add Nordic keyboard and support shipping to Denmark.

Vanced is advanced with ‘ad’ removed btw.

Maybe obvious, but have you tried to talk to the neighbor?

In my previous apartment I had a shitty door that was hard to close without slamming it, and I didn’t realize how much it disrupted my neighbors when I slammed it to close it. Instead I started to turn the lock while closing it, which worked perfectly.

If you write !aboringdystopia@lemmy.world instead the link is usable for any instance.
