  • thanks :). but they're probably from ice skates.

  • Not my tracks, but quite sure they're from ice skates.

    snow last year, I have no idea, sorry, I moved back this summer... but if you're really interested, this web page has all the info you'd need https://www.senorge.no/

  • December was way too warm for snow, earnest on record by far, whereas Jan and Feb have been really really cold and dry. But in general, yes, climate change means less snow, as it's warmer. at least until AMOC collapses.

    Not one person has been arrested yet after the Epstein files were released ? Are 9-5s working 30+ years to keep their overlords rich?

  • 100km now, but even though i say I’m from there, i have no family and barely any acquaintances left. Still can do the dialect, though, if i make an effort. Usually don’t. And in a couple of years, I’ll move hundreds or thousands of kilometres away. Again.

  • This is for people who have moved away from their home town or have lived in multiple locations long term. Do you ever forget where you are?

    Jump

  • Yes. Usually when waking up or after dozing off. In extreme cases, i sometimes know i am in location A, and yet struggle to accept it — the sounds or smells or something is just too reminiscent of location B.

  • What's an unexpected skill you have?

    Jump

  • Long story short: taught kids about swearing as s substitute teacher, got the principal (my mother) in trouble, wrote a manuscript about swearing, interviewed a linguist about religion for the humanist (atheist) magazine, she invited me to join her book project on swearing, the book was published, the «kulturelle skolesekken» (bringing culture to schools) invited me to tour the northernmost, most swearing part of Norway to talk about swearing.

  • I’m a crossing guard at school. My amazing trick is to balance the lollipop on my nose.

    I also know some Shakespearean sonnets and the first page of finnegans wake by heart, but that’s usually more expected.

    The most wow reaction i had from my sons’ friends was when i swore better than them. But then again, i once went on a two week tour to schools teaching the kids how to swear, so .., no big deal.

  • Roll call.... what country are you from?

    Jump

  • From Norway. Lived in a handful of countries the last decade or so. Probably going back to Norway this summer. Always a bigger culture shock than going abroad.

  • Do you run a YouTube channel? Tell us about it

    Jump

  • Yes! But like all projects, they die quickly.

    One channel for poems, mostly in Norwegian, but the occasional English/German as well Joyce!

    Another for teaching Norwegian (in English) Some years old now

  • My journey towards more European, open source, privacy-oriented, and decentralized alternatives

    Jump

  • Yes, true… I’ve heard people in several countries say yr is their preferred service, so it must be quite good in general.

  • Yr is Norwegian and great for some places, but often mistaken re amount of rain in other places — here in Switzerland, eg, meteosuisse is much better.

  • Rubik's cube

    Jump

  • Yes, we have a slight suspicion and are on the case. It’s challenging when you are very much not adhd, WHY CAN’T HE JUST DO THIS IT’S SO EASY, but my job is to understand and help, not force my way of thinking unto his. Thanks for corroborating my hunch, though.

  • Rubik's cube

    Jump

  • Yes, just got a magnet one. He was over the moon. He is one of those kids who has a hard time with everything boring, like brushing his teeth or cleaning his room, but can lose himself for hours on end in the most impossible tasks when he has the drive. At the moment, his mania is the cube. So a magnet cube is indeed very much worth it.

  • It was hanging in the air, quite still. I put the (manual) focus at the shortest possible distance (ca 40 cm) and then took several pictures, hoping one of them would turn out OK.
