  • Defence industry in the dark over how countries plan to use €150 billion EU loans

    Jump

  • Sooner or later they need to know where the countries are going to spend their money, otherwise they can't build new factories or expand existing factories.

    It can take several years from when a company decide to build a new factory until it is allowed to start the construction. Then the construction and installation of machines takes a couple of years. And then the company can finally start to produce and sell the weapons.

  • Exit polls give Seguro around 70% of vote in Portugal presidential election

    Jump

  • The second round of the presidential election in Portugal is between the the moderate socialist António José Seguro and the far-right André Ventura. Ventura represent the Chega party which got 22.8% last year in the general election.

  • Everything Costs More Because the Algorithm Says So | The Walrus

    Jump

  • Good point, and the guess of the income is very qualified since the app is used which means it is directly linked to you.

    And I assume the same method can be used for the fuel stations which answers my question (in my other comment) about that.

  • Everything Costs More Because the Algorithm Says So | The Walrus

    Jump

  • Yeah, that would explain the groceries, but what about fuel? The fuel stations can adjust the price so it becomes more expensive in the morning when you are on your way to work or at holidays. But that would change the price for everyone.

  • Everything Costs More Because the Algorithm Says So | The Walrus

    Jump

  • Companies gather data from many routine digital touchpoints: web and app tracking (cookies, pixels, and device fingerprinting), geolocation from phones and browsers, and in-store sensors.

    I understand that collecting data from the browser and apps can change the price for items we typically order online. But the article mention groceries and fuel, aren't those items typically bought in a store? How does my browsing have any impact on what I pay for a piece of bread?

  • Deleting accounts I don't use will be the next step. So far I prefer to have Google and Microsoft accounts and not use them compared with deleting them.

  • After reading other comments and thinking for a bit, I realized that I have made more switches.

    Google Translate -> Deepl

    Google -> DuckDuckGo -> Qwant

    Youtube -> Invidious

    And I have never used Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and Reddit much.

  • Kvartal med årets edgelordtake: "Moralpaniken kring Epstein är problematisk"

    Jump

  • Tänk att vakna på morgonen och tänka att det viktigaste under dagen är att skriva en krönika där man försvarar Epstein.

  • Sweden’s Journey to Producing 100% Fossil-Free Steel for Volvo & Beyond

    Jump

  • I hope that they get the factory in Boliden to work, the news lately has been that Stegra are looking for more money from investors. It would be sad if both Northvolt and Stegra fails, we need new companies.

  • Swedish aerospace manufacturer Saab floats Gripen production hub in Canada, if Ottawa were willing

    Jump

  • It is a huge job to replace the engine of a fighter jet, they will not use another engine until they replace Gripen with the next generation.

  • I have not deleted so many apps and accounts, but I have stopped using them or reduced the usage.

    Windows 10 -> Linux but Windows 10 is still installed on another disk so technically it is dual boot even if I have not used Windows for months.

    Office -> Libre office

    Gmail and Hotmail -> Protonmail and Posteo

    Google maps -> Here maps and Comaps

    Onenote -> Notesnook

  • Snart dags för fettisdagen

    Jump

  • Respektabel åsikt. Köper du från ett konditori eller någon förpackning på Ica?

  • Snart dags för fettisdagen

    Jump

  • I have never heard of any celebration of fettisdagen except for eating a semla. And I can't imaging drinking beer to a semla.

    They are really yummy, I recommend to try one. You can follow this recipe if you are ambitious and want to make your own. Otherwise the Vastenavond looks close enough so you can buy the bun for them and fill with almond paste and whipped cream.

  • Snart dags för fettisdagen

    Jump

  • Den 12 januari 1956 rapporterar DN att försäljningen av semlor redan ”tjuvstartat” i Helsingborg.

    Två år senare (1958) skriver DN igen om hur man i Skåne börjat sälja semlor redan i januari. Men redan före 1950-talet hade man börjat sälja semlor innan fettisdagen.

    Att tjuvstarta med semlorna ett par veckor innan fettisdagen får nog räknas som tradition vid det här laget.

    Det verkar som det är just skåningar som är extra förtjusta i semlor. Eller så gillar dom bara att bryta mot lagar och traditioner.

  • Obsidian's The Outer Worlds 2 Underperformed, and There Won't Be a Third - IGN

    Jump

  • I liked the first Outer Worlds but didn't even look towards Outer Worlds 2 because it was other better or more interesting games that was released last year.

    It feels like it was to much to release Avowed, Outer Worlds 2 and Grounded 2 in the same year. They should have spread out the games more to polish them more before the release.

  • Norwegian royal scandal: Son of crown princess to stand trial for rape

    Jump

  • Thanks! Was just reading about the Norwegians in the news so I don't know about everything, but I think the voting was determined before the release of the Epstein documents and the trial of Marius. It was some parties on the far left who wanted to have the voting and they knew that they would not be close to a majority.

    I'm from Sweden and people here like our king and also Victoria so I'm sure they will also handle a lot before there are any serious discussions about going for a president instead of a king.

  • Swedes are selling off their American funds and shares and are buying European/Swedish instead

    Jump

  • Thanks, I didn't know it increased that rapidly. However, I still think some people was buying gold after they saw that it increased a lot and they could have lost money.
