bigboismith OP ,

Poor Gaddafi was attacked by the corrupt NATO, to the disgust of the rest of the world (except that it was resolution by the UN security council).

250 watts of led generates about 25000 lumens. You sir have a about a quarter square meter of sun in your pc in light.

It makes sense when considering the old concept of "Family computers". Then familily share would allow each person in the family to have access to their own saves and achievements. Though I agree the system could use an update

It wasn't actually more efficient. Having all of you're guys in a huge box makes it easier to hit than having you're infantry spread out. It was mostly a morale thing, having other soldiers within arms range made you reconsider running away. While being engaged with huge volleys by these squares made you very much consider if you should run anyway.

"IT is mainly introverts doing mysterious stuff no one understands"

It is a very cooperative field where everyone has different roles with different responsibilities, but everyone has a vague idea what everyone else is doing. Most of the time is spent making sure everyone else can also use the systems you build, not just yourself.

I am in the top 100s on some tracks in Art of Rally.

Almost all zoomers are adults, my life is a lie.

Does a bayonet disturb the balance that much?

Thought this was a political alignment chart

What is the point of nicotine patches?

I don't get it. It's kinda like you got to want to quit but at the same time yeah quitting is already hard for me. But I'm supposed to put it on me and somehow I get a form of nicotine without smoking. It's like how am I supposed to get used to it. I will even take the patch off try to save it for later just so I can have a...

bigboismith ,

They help quitting since you only have to deal with the physical act of smoking (which in of itself is a very ingrained act) without dealing with nicotine withdrawal

bigboismith ,

I understand why they are referred to as orcs now

Empowering women

Just like slavery in the 1800's was about civilizing africans

Where do the rural homeless near you live?

This seems to be something people don't always give second thought to. When people talk about the homeless, the first things thought about are images of people on busy city streets in rusty clothes waiting around near allies. In there, the answer is quite static, because it can be I guess. But if that's the case, change the...

I live in Finland, so uh. There are none

bigboismith ,

There are many social programs, but the biggest one is "Expense assistance", where the state will make sure you have minimum amount of money required for living after income. In practice it's around 600-1000€,just enough for the cheapest rent and cheap food. However that's all you need to get back on your feet.

bigboismith ,

Its calculated after income, so you will only receive the bare minimum needed for basic living. However if you want to live in a small apartment with no actual disposable income there is nothing stopping you. Thats actually how some students get by.

bigboismith ,

I don't see any inaccuracies in this, and it isn't really necessarily showing these in a negative light. It is just a factual infograghic used to quickly identify symbols in leftist spaces.

A coffee grinder. Freshly grinded beans taste so different from normal preground coffee.

bigboismith ,

I have the cheapest manual grinder I could find in my local supermarket. It does the job

Victoria 3 on launch. First game I turned Finland into the richest country on earth by capita is 30 years.

bigboismith ,

So some context from the side of the government. Finland is currently in a debt crisis and is desperately trying to increase productivity in the short term. For disclosure I support the strikes, but this article is too one sided. There is actual nuance here and not just "evil right wing hates workers".

bigboismith ,

This is a great step forward for equality

bigboismith ,

Coffee press, 20€ and you don't have to make an entire pot of coffee without resorting to instant coffee. Also very satisfying to use.

bigboismith ,

I feel the same, some decent actual red fash content here but a lot of people just pulling at straws.

bigboismith ,

From an IT perspective, blockchain technology is a solution in search of a problem.
From an environmental perspective, crypto is a disaster.
From an economical perspective it's too unstable to be anything but gambling.

Buying drugs over the internet is the only real reason crypto currencies can be useful. Hell even in person it's better to use cash.

bigboismith ,

What motive did they have in Turkey? Aren't most suicide attacks done for some religious fundamentalist reason, shia versus sunni islam maybe?

bigboismith ,

Probably something along the line of "AMERIKKKAN TROOPS INVADE AND MASSACARE ETHNIC RUSSIANS IN RUSSIAN DONBASS"
