    Depressing, but true. Every now and then I try not to be a hopeless cynic, but... it keeps dragging me back into its murky depths

    It's possible that the Google ads running on this site have tagged you as being interested in Oblivion. Youtube is owned by Google, so they would share that information pretty freely. It could come from anywhere though, Facebook scrapes your messages the same way. The only other things I can think of aside from Google ads is using Chrome while signed into your Google account or if you posted from an Android phone.

    Yesterday I went to the toilet, I may have had my cell phone with me in my jeans pocket. Immediately afterwards, Youtube started giving me diarrhea commercials. :D Skynet is watching us and it's all fucked up. :D

    5 minutes into nostalgia-playing Oblivion, the game crashes, and the save-file is corrupted. MEMORIES

    I did one amazon order, and told my gf, this is kind of morbid, but an interesting experience - maybe this xmas, we get to contribute to someones death by exhaustion indirectly - and just in time for the holidays!

    Amazon allows you to track your delivery, so you can watch their slow trek from Amazon HQ, countless deliveries, then finally to your doorstep. So enjoy!

    That's my experience with ordering things online as well: "Quick and easy my goddamn ass." That's when I remember I really don't like computers very much.

    I wonder how much human history must pass, before a functioning Norwegian spellcheck manifests into existence.

    I think Europe will be majority Muslim in 20 years so Alec is pretty close.

    One projection says 10% within next 50 years, but... you know... muslims are like women in this regard: Let's see them *really* try to take power away from The Conglomerate White Western Man. So, everybody relax, we'll sooner be mass-nuked by Canadians, than *actually* threatened by Arabs.

    We instinctively know how to fight: with our arms/hands and legs/feet. And real fights are always clumsy and dirty. There are always more misses than hits. Have you ever watched a boxing match from start to finish, not just the highlights? It's ridiculous how ineffective even the best boxers are. And that's why we invented spears and knives and guns. To stop looking like complete buffoons on the battlefield.

    Absolutely agree. Martial arts in for example athletic setting, looks like a bunch of kids flailing their hands at each others - the rest is coreography and movie trend. Matrix has, hilariously enough, some of the worst looking fighting, since every damn punch or block includes a neat little pause, so one can fully appreciate each pose. Fuckin Karate Kid has more realistic fighting than that

    By now though, it's too cemented in culture, I guess. How many movie baddies just walk away from that well-deserved jaw-punch they recieved? How about having them fall and knock their head against the ground, for then to start shaking and snoring :D

    As for quality, I was given a room of my own, complete privacy, and no restrictions to visitors, I had a touch screen TV, and those beds with the remote control thing. My gf told me that it easily corresponded to private-hospital levels back in her Portugal.

    And yes - this shit is paid for out of the tax-payers pocket - which kind of is the entire point (especially if the super-rich allow themselves to be taxed just like the rest of us plebs)

    Okay, I'm done "politicizing the moment" now :D

    I'm glad you're ok dude. And I actually know Norway is wealthier than my country so I'd expect them to take good care of you. Glad you're ok now.

    Kurdish forces ally with Syrian gvt, in a compromise where survival as a people outweigh the desire for independence. That's rough.

    Indeed. I watched the Joker just a few days ago, and I can't remember the last time a movie surprised and excited me to such a degree. "Incels gonna shoot up"-my ass, they're all worried we're gonna start shooting up the rich. I'm not :] honk honk :]

    I hate to admit this, but I saw it three times already. I'm going to stop now and wait til it's out on dvd, but damn, I really really love that movie.

    Whoa, zero results for "what's basement called" I'm the first Norwegian human in the history of internet, curious of the term for "basement"

    @zegh8578 You mean what is a ship's basement called? A hold, maybe? In Norwegian you mean?

    Come on community, team effort needed here to help out Zegh! :D
    zegh8578
    zegh8578
    Yes, yes, in Norwegian :D I did come to "a hold" in English, but then "a hold" is impossible to google-translate to Nor, because "hold" means "to hold" in Norwegian. It always translates to - "to hold" "to hold a ship" "holding the ship" etc... It's very frustrating :D

    I did find TWO lists of maritime terms, in Norwegian, and skimmed through both, as well as word-searched terms like "kjeller" etc, to see if something could match, but no luck

    Norwegians using the open source synonym-dictionary "What? To run is not synonymous with to cook? We'll just see about that!" *edits entry*
    zegh8578
    zegh8578
    Google translate is similar, based on user input, rendering most translations to just overly informal English loan-word soups

    Glad I bookmarked the actual language council's website, with their dictionary- although they're a bit lacking in offering related words, etymologies etc.

    Turkey's invading Syria to obliterate the Kurdish resistance there, and the 2nd most vapid official reaction (after Trump) was our very own

    Apart from hyperpowers like the US, I always find so eery when countries let themselves get accustomed to hostile conflict to the degree of posessing a military force with a lot of recent experience - or armed and active paramilitary groups like the Grey Wolves. There's an inherent savagery to it, that most "common sense" would suggest that we have shed in our modernity, but that clearly we have not

    Heh, “shed in our modernity”. We’re a flawed creation, zegh. As long as there are shaved monkeys there will be war, and profiteering, and all that happy shit that comes with violence.

    Oh, for sure. These are constant reminders, and so is geopolitics in general. Not to sound all "cynic edge", but geopolitics in particular perfectly demonstrate our hard, unrelenting, uncompromising biology, we overrun our opponents according to demand, and individual suffering drown in almost trivial political maneuvers and actions that blanket entire populations.

    I just realized Norwegian does not have a word for 'amputee', we have to say the whole thing "person who has had a limb of theirs amputated"

    I guess we got some older terms for things that might have been more common in the past, but I'm guessing those terms exist in any community that has experienced (or still do) ailments common with lack of modern medicine

    Indeed! Not a day goes by that I do not appreciate my rather ambivalent attitude towards Jodie Foster, precisely because of that. Life is precious, and Jodie Foster is simply not worth throwing it all away for.

    Pre-Contact Jodie Foster was awesome. Then she turned into a dyke with a political opinion. Whatever, Hollywood.
