Putin is probably miffed as the signing of a defence cooperation agreement between Finland and the US looms, which would bring US weapons to Finnish soil on a permanent basis. This is a step towards practical implementation of NATO defense collaboration.

Technically yes, but in practice the goal is to make the practical arrangements implementing of Article 5 security quarantees possible. There is not much use of NATO support, if alliance forces can’t operate in Finland in a practical way.

I am sure there are new operational agreements of similar nature will be made between Finland and Sweden as well as Finland and Estonia. That said, there is already a significant degree of defence cooperation between Finland and Sweden.

Finland is also already part of the british led JEF, and I would be surprised if the Nato framework would not change the nature of that cooperation.

An article which was quite well researched from what I could tell. I had no previos info on the subject, so I can’t estimate the accuracy. Worth a read if India’s domestic weapons development is your jam.

Real MVP

I took it as an opinion with whom most other people would disagree, but you still hold.

I started construction of an argument on why you are wrong before remembering the title of the thread.

Because I have no life, I looked it up.

Bread in Finland is about 0.1 usd per slice Low quality cheese is about 8 usd / kg, assuming you need about 20g/portion that’s 0.16 usd. Total is about 36c per portion.

If we assume power consumption of 5kw for the whole operation and power cost of 20c/kWh, that’s 1usd/h

Assuming sales of 60 units per hour -one per minute, thats 60 usd of revenue per hour and 22.6 usd of non labor cost, it leaves 37.4e for labor, taxes, permits, tools, fuel.

It’s at least only feasible in high volume locations.

It is worth noting that the richest 1% includes everyone who makes more than 140k$/year.

I use gimp daily, but it is still far, far behind photoshop from when I was studying and that was pre 2010.

The biggest problem is the UI. The only major improvement was the transition from multi window to single window with tabs, around 2012 or so.

It feels like using a hammer with a purple dildo for a handle. I can do it after 10 years of getting the hang of swinging around the wobbly thing. Meanwile the rest of the world transitioned to battery driven nailguns and I’m still swinging my dilmer with a slightly more rigid handle.

That’s my understanding too, and at least back in the day there was a volunteer group doing this.

Helps with search engine indexing too.

It used to be the case yea, but my experience last 5 years or so has been that especially for old hardware everything works out of the box.

Might be extremely hardware or distro dependent though.

Yes, correct! I will update my post to reflect this. Working with EVs can give me EV blinders.

Lithium batteries are happiest between 20 and 80% state of charge. You should not store them outside of that range. Charging a little often also doesn’t hurt your battery like many seem to believe.

Charging while cold is bad, but storing in cold is good.

Also, NiMh and NiCd batteries are different tha Lithium based ones. Check what type of battery you have. Phones and EVs are almost always lithium though.

Although not something I could see myself doing, I don’t judge. People can be too busy for dating, out of practice, too awkward or just wanting to cross off something off their bucket list. At the very least it ain’t my business.

I have found Linux to have excellent HW support for all older hardware. Only notable exception is fingerprint readers. Granted, it’s been years since I tried gaming.

Sounds like the Republican party in US or Persut in Finland.

You would be right, what a good reference!

I have done more work on OpenSeaMap. It started with me being annoyed with plotters costing too much and ended in me using many hours to mark down rocks from satellite images.

It’s still pretty basic and there is no good way of collecting water depth info, but fun to improve it.

Here is what we have done

• A three piece mosquito net AND a cloth hanging at the door. The combination of two barriers is very effective
• Stainless steel mosquito netting in a removable frame on all windows (no maintenance abd easy to remove)
• Same net for all ventilation holes
• A mosquito magnet CO2 attractor outside
• A UV bug zapper inside (I don’t like them outside, as they will mostly kill butterflies and other non-annoying insects)

Correct, the reason they are called packages, is that the package can contain other resources besides usable programs, like libraries used by other programs.
