I experienced this just a few days ago. (By the way, I’m Swedish and the current political situation here is quite ass IMO. We’re talking mass surveillance and the government trying to stop all immigration.)

I was talking with one of my friends and she told me that the new election went wonderful. She told me that she would gladly vote for the Sweden democrats in the next election.

Then I told her that they would decrease the budget for television and radio by a lot and stopping the migration would also include normal people looking to start businesses here, pay taxes, etc.

Hopefully, she votes pirate in 2026.

(Fun fact: the person leading and representing the Sweden democrats compared Nazis to Drag Queens on live television.)

You let him down… Are you going to run around and desert him too?

(sorry, I just had to 😂 that song is still a banger btw)

It’s obviously Liberland but in 25 years.

Petal Maps/Google Maps And Waze navigation.

Petal is my favourite, it has some features that google and Waze don’t have, like free drive mode. The open-source map alternatives unfortunately dosn’t even come close. And being able to have the navigation app on half the screen and Spotify/Jellyfin on the bottom half is just golden.

I know that the CCP owns Petal, and I’m not proud of using it, but the experience is great. Google is also ass when it comes to privacy, but being able to quickly check the reviews of nearby restaurants/parks is amazing.

Waze isn’t great either, but checking if there are any traffic jams before jumping in the car is also cool. (I know that both Google and Petal have this feature but Waze is just superior).

Additionally, I haven’t found a Bluetooth tracking alternative to Tile.

But isn’t Texas 'Merican?

According to this blog post, they don’t seem to 🙂 https://mullvad.net/en/blog/2023/5/29/removing-the-support-for-forwarded-ports/

For anyone still using Mullvad and wants port-forwarding, I recommend AzireVPN.

Good list! I use all of them too.

I originally joined lemmy via lemmy.fmhy.ml, 'cause you know, my “Linux ISO’s” needs to get well distributed.

However, they got in trouble and I like Lemmy, so I started looking for other instances. Eventually, I found monero.town and since I already use monero.social as my matrix home, I signed up for it.

Never encountered any problems with it. The devs also seem pretty cool.

My first thought when I saw that was “I’m home, I’ve found my place”. Man I just love lemmy and its community

Long live Lemmy!

I’ve been to some places where smoke detectors aren’t required by law (or places where it is required by law but there isn’t anyone to enforce it). It’s weird AF.

I apologize if I was unclear in the first message

A fire extinguisher can be found for less than 100 USD and is a must-have. A smoke detector is also a bare minimum in my opinion.

I personally really like Satisfactory. It is not the most original game out there. However, it is really beautiful. The community is awesome too.

As a Swede, I usually get well above 3 Mbit/s on 3G, and I have a 100/100 Mbit/s fiber that I often use to its full potential, and that’s with a VPN on. I really thought Germany had better infrastructure.
