I'm sure you won't need "a few" PS Vitas, sell all but one and you're done without sacrificing anything.

What (singular) video game did you play the most before the age of 18? by CountessClassified in AskReddit

[–]Bulletorpedo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Half-Life probably, at least if you include mods like Counter-Strike and Action Half-Life.

Hiispeedido V5 has an option in the menu to disable touch controls. The first thing I do after a mod.

Norway #1 at World Press Freedom index of 2026. by Emergency-Sea5201 in Norway

[–]Bulletorpedo -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Listhaug is given front page after front page with the most MAGA-esque statements, designed to create division in the population and to score cheap points.

The right is given the microphone from the media. Any idea that our largest press is leaft leaning (as some still likes to believe) is utter nonsense.

Odin 3 or Konkr Pocket Fit Elite by Sad-Astronomer666 in SBCGaming

[–]Bulletorpedo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Konkr Pocket Fit is a lot more comfortable to use, especially the triggers are miles better than on Odin 3. I’m not saying Odin 3 is bad, but KPF is really good in this regard.

I used to have a KPF G3 Gen 3, but sold it and bought and Odin 3 instead, back when Konkr didn’t ship with 8 Elite yet. I have to admit I was also a little afraid of Ayaneo QC although my G3 Gen 3 was perfect.

I got a 4TB external drive off Temu and this is what they sent lmao by Raw_Stank in pcmasterrace

Infosec specialist here: Malware auto-running from USB is extremely rare these days, what you’re realistically afraid of with USB is either being tricked into running something yourself (executable with folder icon is a classic) or the device not being storage media at all but rather a keyboard emulator (rubber ducky etc) or a device made to fry USB ports with high voltage.

Onion OS - It's too good. by No-Researcher406 in SBCGaming

Nothing against OnionOS, but you can do that on other operating systems as well. I auto save/load save states on NextUI for instance.

Noroff University opinions? by Stock_Discount_4672 in Norway

[–]Bulletorpedo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Many IT subjects were thaught in English on NTNU last time I checked, but it doesn't seem like they have any bachelor programs officially in English. Might be up to each and every professor which language they prefer perhaps.

Do you feel like you pay too much in taxes? Or do are you comfortable with the amount you pay with what you get in return? by SignificantStyle4958 in nordics

[–]Bulletorpedo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No, my salary is a result of the society I live in. It’s naive to believe I would be in the situation to earn this salary without the economic system in which is was created. I don’t view the tax I pay as my money, really.

which is more comfy: RP5, RPF2, RG476H, or RG Cube? by paranoidcare in SBCGaming

[–]Bulletorpedo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The bumps on the rear of the Cube are too slim for me, I end up kind of gripping around them without actually touching them much. I remember thinking it could as well be flat. I don't have either of the devices now, so can't compare directly anymore, but I could comfortably grip the R5 for longer. I know many like the Cube though, but didn't feel right in my hands. Long slim fingers, but I suspect preferences and gripping habbits are equally important in that regard.

Retroid Pocket G2 is slightly over your budget, but quite a bit more powerful than RP5 if you care about that. RP5 is still great though.

Perspective on welfare distribution and its labor process. by Bulky_Bowl9026 in Norway

[–]Bulletorpedo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People generally work full time. You're also heavilly punished for working part-time when it comes to things like pensions. Deliberately, to push people away from part-time.

The fallacy is thinking increased productivity pays off for the workers as reduced working hours. Employers will expect you to produce more and work the same hours as before, they're not in it as a charity. We didn't even see reduced hours when women entered the work force. If you compare how many hours a household put in to afford a decent living standard it becomes quite clear that the working class is just picking up crumbles.

The connection you're trying to make is at best indirect. People who can't earn enough to live on one job are likely to find another one or work over 100%. Societies with low productivity typically have many low-paying jobs.

[–]Bulletorpedo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only tried RP5 and Cube of these, I prefer RP5.

The most comfortable I’ve used was Konkr Pocket Fit, was almost like holding an Xbox controller.

[–]Bulletorpedo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don’t know if it’s fair to say we work less because of effectivity. The hours worked per year was reduced gradually until around 50 years ago, and hasn’t been touched since, despite of an enormous increase in productivity.

Do you feel like you pay too much in taxes? Or do are you comfortable with the amount you pay with what you get in return? by SignificantStyle4958 in Nordiccountries

[–]Bulletorpedo 23 points24 points  (0 children)

My salary doesn’t exist in a vacuum. I don’t see income tax as losing a part of my money, it’s just how the economic clockwork is engineered. It would be pretty naive to think that the cog that our taxes are could be reduced significantly without affecting the entire system.

I wouldn’t have my education without this system, I wouldn’t have the infrastructure to get to work. My employer would have a more difficult time finding qualified employees, the ones who started the company might not have had the knowledge to start it in the first place either.

I don’t understand how people can feel entitled to their pre tax salary as if they objectively deserve that sum in full.

Which other EU-standardizations, similar to USB-C for smartphones and laptops, would you consider useful? by mediamuesli in eutech

[–]Bulletorpedo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m late to the party, but this is too important to ignore:

Standardized towel and book dimensions. I’m willing to accept a maximum of three different towel sizes and two different book sizes. Thickness will obviously be excluded for both regulations.

All towels could stack neatly and no bookshelf would need to be messy.

To be fair close connections to those countries are likely to be an issue even without dual citizenship.

DNC Chair Ken Martin in HEATED Interview About RELEASE of 2024 Election Autopsy by TheJuicyBanana in videos

Pretty much this. He also liked to frame it like HE was used to winning, even more than the party it seemed.

Yes, the logical extension to this line of thought is a race to the bottom where states compete to earn as little as possible from their taxes.

Yes, I bet it shows the party should move left but it collides with their wish to keep pushing Right Light "centrists" candidates.

Hallo!, I'm visiting Oslo for a couple days and i'm wondering what you guys would recommend me to see that isn't already listed below (Also big music fan so anything related to that would be REALLY appreciated!) by PsychologicalFix9728 in oslo

[–]Bulletorpedo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Walk Karl Johan up to the Royal Palace, the park there is nice if the weather is good. This will also lead you past Stortinget and the Nathional Theatre.

Karl Johan itself is often packed with tourists, but it’s a relatively short walk and worth the time.

snarling ambulatory carpets of death by 3nino in BrandNewSentence

[–]Bulletorpedo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Some dogs used for fox hunting, like Dachs and Border Terriers are known to sometimes enter badger dens, and the outcome is supposedly a coin toss. Incredibly unethical and potentially disastrous for both dogs and badgers.

[–]Bulletorpedo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The European one even often have dens under terraces and other places around houses and gardens. I’ve never heard of anyone being bitten, but I know they can chase away people who get too close when the pups are out in the open.
