  • Okay, so I can't really get angry over a demented old man yelling at the clouds, it's what they do...

    But exactly what is happening in USA since there's nobody telling him to shut the fuck up? Somebody wrote this on a piece of paper for him and put it in an envelope and send it through as diplomatic post between two nations. And NOBODY at any point whatsoever had the courage to tell him what is obvious to everyone else on the planet: That these are the dumbest words every written on a piece of paper in the entire history of mankind. Really?

    What are they so afraid of?

  • Only if the vending machine is sexy to begin with.

  • It's a wild guess if the northern areas will even be habitable once the ice has melted. Russia's permafrost is also melting and their areas are turning into methane swamps where it's impossible to build anything.

    But of course Greenland and Canada will magically turn into palm beach resorts with scuba diving, right?

  • If that even made sense, it would be even more reason to deny him it.

  • I think every country in the world will recognize this declaration just as well as the weather followed his sharpie drawings in 2019.

  • It's only a matter of time before we see if American windows are as deadly as the Russian ones.

  • I wish it was just a website. You can't even download Android Studio or any other starter package without being forced into some kind of AI bloated IDE just to write "hello world".

  • If you can't trust the agreements that a government makes, what good is that government.

    Some might think it's cool that the current administration don't give a shit and is all about action over words, but it's not going to be pretty when they themselves rely on words.

  • Turns out, you don't actually need a good guy with a gun.

    You need a guy who is good with guns.

  • There's some survivorship bias to that. Most of my favorite movies are the 1970s, but that's also the best of an entire decade.

    I'm sure there's an equal number of good contemporary movies, we just don't know which yet.

  • Dropping bombs where?

    The only military presence on Greenland is already the American NATO base. Everyone else up there are civilians.

    They're gonna bomb the snow just for the fuck of it?

    The whole thing is absurd. It's a distraction.

  • He's also asking what right Denmark has to it, which is what I addressed. USA gave us that right.

    I don't really think they're going to do anything just now. USA can already have all the military they want on Greenland. They're the ones who are supposed to protect it, so if they choose to attack, what the hell are they supposed to attack? The snow?

    It would basically mean that they withdraw from NATO, which is a bit over the top for putting a flag in the snow in an area they already control.

    I think that it's all a distraction. They're probably going for a surprise attack in Panama any day now.

  • It's the same grid as most of Europe. AC 3 phases 50 hz 230/400 V.

    Other places can do the same, but it's a legal issue rather than technical. It's difficult to tax.

  • Actually, they don't.

    When Denmark sold the Danish West Indies to USA in 1916-1917, part of that deal was to ratify that USA accepted the full Danish ownership of Greenland.

    At the time, this was done to keep Norway from making claims to Greenland.

    But anyway, we quite literally have a document written by USA and signed by USA stating that Denmark alone owns Greenland.

    Edit: Took some time to find, but here it is signed by U.S Secretary of State Robert Lansing who made the deal under President Woodrow Wilson.

  • I was surprised when I read about it too, but it's true, they quite literally just plug them right into the normal plugs.

    It works because there's a certain tolerance on the German breakers that allow for power to reverse. The balcony panels take advantage of this. However this also limits the possible output to whatever the tolerance is, otherwise it would overload and shut off or worse.

  • Bicycle tires were invented by Dunlop and improved by Michelin.

    You know these names, because it actually wasn't a dumb idea.

  • This PC wasn't for myself. The user only needs it for webmail and other browser stuff, but still insisted on it having Windows and MS office.

    It seems to work fine now, but I guess I will see it again soon enough.

  • I just setup a new laptop. Straight from the store, never been turned on before.

    First thing in the Windows installation is a step called "something went wrong". Not even kidding.

    MS is slop, with or without AI.

  • I would actually see it as a positive factor. Depends on the people involved of course.

    Singles with kids are much better aware of each part needing separate time and having individual obligations, compared to someone who doesn't have kids, who might still be looking to merge into a twosomeness where their relationship is the center of the universe.

    I do have kids and am not single, so I guess it's easier to see in hindsight. I guess it could be difficult for a single parent to find a single non-parent who is on the same page in maturity and responsibility.
