I don't care, I don't want no damn Direct Rendering Manager, oh no siree.

Is Tumbleweed really immutable? I thought it was just an RPM-based rolling release distro.

I'm not your comrade, friend.

We need to reach a consensus on that across EU. Allow for a few decades, then we can make an informed decision and start to plan how to proceed.

Meloni also said she hoped Trump’s “confrontational” approach on European defence would be a much-needed “stimulus” for the continent to take responsibility for its own security.

It looks like it will. Trump is uniting Europe and we're finally asking ourselves some hard questions. European de-facto dependency on the US for defense has never been ideal.

you can’t leave the water stale for too long,

Can't you, though? I read a supposed expert say in an interview recently that while the taste might change over time, it would still be OK to drink, so you don't really need to change it. I would think a lot depends on the container it's kept it.

I dislike how they've started to promote some weird cryptocurrency. It's never a good sign.

Thanks for the reality check. Here in Norway, we have twice received brochures in our paper mail about crisis planning, with specific recommendations for stockpiling. I know it's the same in Sweden (their brochures have been very blatantly telling people that this is "in case of war", even, while Norway focuses more on natural catastrophes, pandemics etc).

A lot of, perhaps most, European countries have already issued such recommendations.

Honestly, having enough food in the house to survive for 3 days is hardly a "stockpile". Many people would have to make an effort to have less food than that. Water is a different issue, of course.

This article is 6 days old. The airstrip has since reopened. Hopefully they took some materiel damage to bombers, although this has not been confirmed.

Norway today issued a warning against traveling to the US for those whose current legal gender is different from their birth gender. Norway lets you change your legal gender simply by filling in an online form.

As far as I understand, the US will consider a passport fraudulent if it states such a gender. Document fraud is a federal crime, so it could be quite dangerous for the traveler.
