To be fair, Mika Aaltola is known in Finland as a noted populist and doomsayer that has a flair for the dramatic. His foreign policy predictions have also been pretty much all wrong since before the start of war in Ukraine.

I’d take anything he says or leaks with a big spoon of salt.

Tried it with a Nvidia card. The graphics were oddly blurry and grainy, especially anything in shadows, no matter the settings. Couldnt get past that. I’m not going to play potentially dozens of hours of nausea simulator.

Interesting. In finnish the word for art is ‘taide’. It’s etymological root word is ‘taito’, which means skill.

Lobbyists will create a middleman, always.

This is, quite literally, same as Jews for Hitler -movement in pre-The War Germany. There are shades of grey in everything, and everyone. You can be bad or the side of bad people, even if you are a minority.

Well to be honest FUCK YOU! Many thousands of horses died defending Finland from Russian aggression, so fuck you. Many of the not killed horses also returned to their previous owners in Finnish farms, traumatized. Those horses were also called War Veterans, but also War Victims.

Leave animals out of the evil humans do. They havent decided to be there. FUCK YOU, ASSHOLE.

Did Moebius design this?

This reminds me of a good lesson my uni IT/video shooting & editing teacher often said: “Your problem is not about what the computer does, it’s what you clicked it to do. Stop. Think for a momenent.”

This update introduced a lot bugs and broke the currently going on Expedition for many players. Oh well, at least I can find something else to play now.

Was same in Finland, we also nowdays just apply a income dependant tax here.

Finn here. Its just a drone with a claymore -equivelant explosive strapped to it. Advanced is a bit of a stretch, but hopefully we’ll get some battlefield data and results soon.

Do the kids know that?

Suomi melkein mainittu, tavataan sit torilla!

There’s also a Larry Niven sci fi novel that sort of revolves around potassium in many points of the story. I really like it, I’ve re-read it a few times.

Also to add to this comment: as a general reminder to those not in the know, Filterlists exists. It contains useful different filterlists for different use cases, for many adblocking software (but of course Ublock origin is the best).

There’s also a lot of other materiel written about Roman and Southern European slave trade during roman times and after the post-roman collapse in the so called dark ages.

Humans have been kinda the worst for most of history, pretty much everywhere.

Reading a Finnish historian’s book based on his studies about slave trade in Eastern Europe, Finland and Karelia during the middle ages. No english title or translation, that I know of, but I’ll try to translate it:

Korpela, Jukka. 2014. Idän orjakauppa keskiajalla - Ihmisryöstöt Suomesta ja Karjalasta. SKS, Helsinki.

Korpela, Jukka. 2014. Eastern slave trade in the middle ages - Abduction of people from Finland and Karelia. SKS, Helsinki.

Hey thanks! Synthpop might be the closest genre - I started checking youtube with keywords you provided, and adding french to it; eg. “french synthpop , french synthwave”. Those started giving results that I percieve to be similar to the two examples.

Maybe its a sound in franchophone world or the language itself that creates the mood. Thank you!
