NĂ„r lige jeg er fĂŠrdig med at rydde op efter morgenmaden tager jeg ud og stemmer.
Jeg brugte i gĂ„r aftes efter landskampen pĂ„ kandidattest og lĂŠse lidt om kandidaterne. Jeg synes isĂŠr det er godt nĂ„r kandidattestene tillader kandidaterne at skrive en lille forklaring til hvorfor de har svaret som de har. Jeg synes faktisk det giver rigtigt meget at lĂŠse forklaringerne igennem, nogle gange finder man en som man er mere âenigâ med ift. svarene, men hvis forklaringer ikke giver mening og vice versa.
Jeg synes det er lidt Ăžv at Chatkontrol 2.0 ikke rigtigt er blevet spurgt ind til. Jeg tror det bliver SF igen, de har svaret pĂ„ hvad de mener om det her: https://chatkontrol.github.io Jeg er ikke 100% tryg ved svaret, de snakker ogsĂ„ generelt meget om at âbeskytte bĂžrneneâ i deres kommunikation, men jeg tror jeg vĂŠlger at tage risikoen. Jeg regner med at skrive til den/de kandidater der bliver valgt ind for SF efter valget og gĂžre det klart hvad jeg mener om at masseovervĂ„ge os alle. Jeg er glad ved deres grĂžnne ambitioner, og stor fan af at de vil kĂŠmpe for at forbedre togtrafikken i Europa!
I had an Nokia, my last âfeaturephoneâ before I got my first smartphone, which actually had an FM tuner built-in. It used the headphone wire as an antenna as far as I recall. Quite neat, not that I ever really used it, but it was perfectly serviceable. And a great way of having music on the go in the days before streaming music was widely available.
âPointerâ, ha!
I suppose âofferingâ might not be the right word, but I think the whole point is whether it is a waste of taxpayer money or not. As I wrote, I donât think it makes sense to expect a worthwhile economic return from hosting the Olympics, but there is of course other types of âwealthâ besides money. For example, if only money mattered a building should be built in as cheap a fashion as possible, but spending a bit more on making it beautiful is worth (to me at least) for the âwealthâ it provides society in improving the beauty of our surroundings. I think the question becomes if it is worth the cost of hosting the Olympics, for the âwealthâ of allowing the citizens of a country/city a chance of attending without travelling half way around the globe. Additionally thereâs the âwealthâ gained from the civic pride of having your country/city be the center of the worldâs attention in a largely positive manner for the course of the games.
Oh yes, I fully agree. My point, I guess, is more that not every tourist coming to Paris for the Olympic is an âextraâ tourist, since some people who would otherwise go, wonât.
The question is also how many of them will come back to Paris once the games are over, who wouldnât have, were it not for the games. If the olympics donât result in additional tourists in the years following it, then it would seem unlikely it was economically worth it. Thatâs why I think it is fundamentally wrong to base whether you want to hold the Olympics based on expected economic returns.
Personally, I love visiting France, but wonât be visiting this summer due to the overcrowding that comes with the Olympics. Iâm actually sort of yearning to revisit Paris but I guess Iâll have to wait until next year or perhaps winter. So Iâm one of those visitors whoâs (temporarily) dissuaded from going due to the event.
I will say that I think looking at it as an economic âthingâ is fundamentally wrong. Hosting the olympics should be about offering the locals a chance to experience world class sports events and the civic pride that comes with putting your country on the map. If you only want to do it for economic benefits, then you really shouldnât host it.
I think the top left has a lot of Opel (or Vauxhall if youâre so inclined) Mokka about it.
Nu har jeg ikke lÊst bÞgerne, sÄ hvor tÊt de fulgte kildemateriale kan jeg ikke sige sÄ meget til. Jeg er dog enig i at anden sÊson havde lidt flere huller i historien. Det eneste jeg tÊnkte med fÞrste sÊson var hvordan en tilsyneladende kÊmpe virksomhed flytter ind i en lille by og enten bliver ingen lokale ansat eller de skal finde nok i den lille by der er villige til at bidrage til svindel og holde det hemmeligt. Begge virker lidt underligt.
Men hvis man bare acceptere dem som lidt âhjernedĂždâ action sjov hvor en stor gut gĂ„r rundt og smadrer âonde kriminelleâ synes jeg begge sĂŠsoner er var fine.
Jeg âbingeâedeâ lige begge sĂŠsoner af Reacher pĂ„ Amazon sidste uge. Hvis man godt kan lide lidt action og lidt âretfĂŠrdighedspornoâ sĂ„ synes jeg helt klart den er hver at se!
So⊠a Mac miniâŠ? đ
Yeah, Iâve also never really been a big fan of Brutalism, but Iâve seen a couple of examples which were surrounded by greenery, and I think it can actually work quite well sometimes. Something about the contrast just works somehow, I guess.
For me, I think it has to be Pulp Fiction. I just recently rewatched it for the umpteenth time and itâs just as great as ever. I find myself quoting it quite often.
A bit of an outsider which is a big hit in my family is âA Good Yearâ by Ridley Scott, staring Russel Crowe. Itâs a nice fun movie and for a family of francophiles like mine itâs a great way of getting a bit of the France we love in the middle of the dark Northern European winter.
Sorry, new?! Unless this is something different from what Iâm imagining, thermostatic shower valves have pretty much been the standard in Denmark for all of my life. You can get them for 80 usd (or probably even lower). These are purely mechanical, no need for batteries. I can even find one on US Amazon for around 50 usd (https://www.amazon.com/Bathroom-Thermostatic-Showering-Temperature-Control/dp/B071ZP4ZHN/ref=ex_alt_wg_m?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_i=B071ZP4ZHN&psc=1&pd_rd_w=MLPp3&pf_rd_p=e06954f1-ab26-49e7-940f-21fea3d5decd&pf_rd_r=1YGK573NBS6VC329GYD0&pd_rd_wg=PC4iL&pd_rd_r=4415efd7-7117-45ad-8b60-0a1c86e84ef0&content-id=amzn1.sym.e06954f1-ab26-49e7-940f-21fea3d5decd).
Edit: I realise that this sounded more aggressive than it meant it to. I was simply quite surprised! :)
Maximum Overdrive. It has taken me until adulthood to get over the irrational fear that big machines like trucks will come alive and drive me over. For many, many years I always got a slightly uneasy feeling when I'm cycling and a big truck goes by (even though I live in a country with good bike infrastructure and bike on separated bike paths). Even now at 26 I occasionally get the feeling. It's silly, and I've mostly gotten over it. I guess my interest in cars and anything mechanical has helped me get over it, thankfully curiosity is sometimes strong than fear.
Funnily enough I occasionally listen to AC/DC and at some long ago point I stumbled upon their album "Who Made Who" and it became a favourite of mine. It was only a few years ago I realized that the album is the soundtrack to Maximum Overdrive!
Several years ago I actually bought a DVD copy of the movie; it's still wrapped in plastic to this day. It's not that I'm scared to see it, I just haven't gotten around to it yet, and by now I'm unsure where it even is any more.
