Contrary to :tinfoil: the government doesn't have nearly as much access as they would like. This attack on end to end encryption dates back decades, but the arguments of catching standard criminals or terrorists haven't worked.

So now it's "think of the children"!

That any solution would be completely unworkable doesn't seem to register.

So far the best solution has been to create a completely secure communication device for the people that the gov wants to follow.

Yeah what the hell is wrong with people who want to take cans and bottles to somewhere else than the machine? Do they want to interact with a clerk who slowly counts the bottles and maybe comments on your drinking habit? All the while a cue gathers behind their back? Do such people exist?

Lidl has a fun surprise with some of their German brand sodas which are not in the general recycling system and can only be returned to a Lidl. This is annoying when you go to any other store and find couple of Lidl bottles that you will either have to carry back home or abandon there.

You can also be either a woman and a feminist, or anti-fascist. There are just no women in antifa.

Or if there are some, it's peachy for them. They only have to deal with nazis, not violent trans rights activists. Nazis are junior varsity stuff.

Sweden remains very racist today, that was the entire point.

Comparing the countries now without looking into the history of the various ethnic groups in them and how the current situation emerged can only lead you wrong.

Sweden never stopped being racist, they just polished their image in the media. Trusting Sweden won't be just as racist as Denmark the second the government sees it as advantageous is like trusting the LGBT conservatives can hold back transphobia.

No country has ever "stopped being racist". This doesn't mean that people everywhere are just as racist as before or that every place is equally racist.

Unfortunately our bathroom is without exaggeration slightly smaller than some first class aeroplane cubicles (or so I have been told). The tooth brushes are stored in a cupboard over the lav.

You should probably attach your toothbrush with a string to the cupboard then. The string should be long enough that you can brush your teeth but short enough that this won't happen again.

As a bonus you can floss with the string!

Seems unlikely. But then I'm a grumpy old fart who tends not to enjoy the standard Eurovision fare of bubblegum pop & power ballads so a Eurovision entry that pleased me is probably not a good idea if you want to win. Also a limit on music to keep songs under 3 minutes is pretty poo poo. 5 minute limit I could almost see & then you're still excluding some of the best music ever record.

No good song has ever been made that lasts over two minutes.

It also has possibly some of the most absurd escalation in a video game. In that you start out going to a meeting at the office and end up fixing a melting down nuclear power plant

As a Finnish game it is set in a fictional post-communist country with a rotten infrastructure that also happens to have a very Finnish culture, the nuke plant itself is a reference to Olkiluoto-3 which was finished just last month, just 14 years behind original schedule.

When INFRA was released it was still only seven years late!
