Not the heat death I was hoping to die in.


Since 2015.


And still nobody is listening. Earth only keeps warming more rapidly.


The Danish government pays for the military and the military pays the soldiers. It’s a job, after all, draft or no draft. And since it’s a job it should come with all the regular Danish perks of having a job.
I’m not sure if the military have their own unions (because I’ve never looked into it), but if they do I can look at their overenskomst (union agreement of sorts) to see what their minimum wage is and how vacation days are handled.
Oh, uh, yeah, so, minimum wage works a little different in Denmark. We don’t actually have a minimum wage, and wages aren’t set in laws. Instead, typically, a worker representative of a particular industry sector and a corporate representative of the same sector sit down every few years to hash out the next few years.


Hmm… Well, I have good cardio from my job as a bicycle courier, and great legs, but I’m still somewhat overweight and have no upper body strength. First draft are typically those that meet the minimum health requirements. I’ve already been tested a number of years ago and I think I fall within the B draft.
That said…
Should push come to shove and I get drafted, as far as I understand it, it’s a training course. Unless the US decides to actually attack Greenland I doubt I’ll end up getting shipped off. So I’ll probably never leave the army base.
As for what my personal opinion on the matter is… Well, if I get drafted it’ll basically be a harsh workout regime for me entirely paid for by the Danish government. At the end of it I’ll be a lot fitter than I’m right now, and I won’t be broke. And if I do get shipped off, it would be in defense against Imperialism, so I can’t really complain.
Well… Maybe I’ll complain a little. I’ll probably be terrified. I’m only human, after all.


Our reality has become worse than satire.


We’re not a particularly large country.


I mean… Also assuming this is all real, and the rushed schedule doesn’t produce low quality botched RAM sticks that die in six months.
When it comes to products from China, they can be incredible; unprecedented quality for so much cheaper! Or they can be exactly what everyone says they are and end up in a landfill after a short amount of time.
It’s quite the coin flip.


Various governments in Europe are switching to Linux too. Libraries in Copenhagen now use Linux.


I’m finding it rather obscene.


A lawyer should know what a double negative is… Or maybe he did it on purpose…


This is exactly what I was thinking.
Second on 8Bitdo. Very good controllers.


Name-calling. The last bastion of the stubbornly illogical.
Just a factual observation. I mean, if it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck…


Only bootlickers are


No.
Don’t you have your encryption key saved somewhere?
Currently me and my friend are using a self-hosted server with Matrix, and Sable as a client.
Sable is the only one with Discord-like functions out of all the clients I’ve tried, all the others falling very short.
Besides that there is Fluxer, which is far more feature complete than any Matrix client. It has some key features holding it back, though, which are no Federation yet, and no E2E encryption yet. But otherwise setting up your own fully functional server is incredibly easily.
Just like back in 2008 the investors will try to fake it until they can’t and the entire economy will crash over the whole world.
China making a crap ton of RAM won’t help with that.
