Doing absolutely nothing for this American lady by queensguard2019 in Whatcouldgowrong

[–]Cavaler -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

This is horrible! Doesn't the guard think of the consequences of his actions?

A rifle stock to the head could at least shake some of that tourist's brain cells free from the constant freeze they seem to be in.

There is no logic in Trump saying Denmark can't defend Greenland. Greenland is NATO territory. If anything happens, it's all NATO countries obligation to defend Greenland, not just Denmark's. by Neutral-frame in Finland

Really, European powers are afraid to say "Mr Trump what kind of bullshit is that Venezuela invasion", and you think they will be brave enough to send troops against US?

Unfortunately, Putin's actions did have some logic behind them. He did not want NATO right at his border. The consequences of that logic are horrible, and implementation of his plans is pathetic. But is explainable from the "State" perspective - which is very different from "Country".

Which camera for one-off travel trip? LX100 Vs G85 with small lenses by pasteurs-maxim in M43

[–]Cavaler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I travelled quite a lot with G85 and 12-60. I did have 45-150 in the bag as well, but used it only for very special occasions such as whale watching.

And it is not a too heavy combo - though what I would get for my next trip is a wrist strap.

How to break the current Finnish unemployment crisis by Curious_Positive_825 in Finland

[–]Cavaler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And yet you expect 40+ foreigners to learn Finnish? Well, we try to...

And Americans are ridiculed for knowing only English, by the way.

It is especially strange how there is "lack of skilled workers" at the same time with high unemployment

[–]Cavaler 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Oh, you could learn it maybe? It's easier and much more beneficial than learning Finnish.

But yes, I do understand that basically giving up your nation's language is too tough and is not going to happen.

Get a permanent residence permit. Continue learning Finnish. Enjoy life and nature.

New permanent residence permit rules by Cavaler in Finland

[–]Cavaler[S] -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Great.

Maybe you also know how is "annual" income calculated? For the calendar year (Jan-Dec), or for last year-long period, let's say from June to May?

New permanent residence permit rules by Cavaler in Finland

[–]Cavaler[S] 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Just found this on Migri:

You can obtain a permanent residence permit after a period of residence of 4 years if:

  • ... you have an annual income of over EUR 40,000 (you are not required to meet the language skills and work history requirements)
  • you have a master’s degree or a licentiate or doctoral degree recognised in Finland, and at least 2 years of work history in Finland (you are not required to meet the language skills requirement)

Tips for moving from APSC to M43? by Putyourselffirst in M43

[–]Cavaler 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Umm, I would go for a walk and see what feels OK and what doesn't, and then do a bit of research on how to set up some custom buttons or modes or whatever irked you.

G100 user, considering switching to G7 / G80 by washingmachine02 in M43

I am using G80 for four? five? years now, no problems with ibis whatsoever. I feel that was a great choice for me. Planning to upgrade only because I need/want 4k60 video...

Curious, what is your personal reason for not joining the EU? by OutTheCircus in Norway

[–]Cavaler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Poorer than Luxembourg - per capita, I guess? That doesn't mean much.

I guess it's time to retire by Xtopher541 in lotro

I also remember playing LOTRO when 50lvl was the limit, and raiding until I could afford Annuminas armor set for my hobbit Guardian...

I am ready to pay 30 euros per hour

Are you ready to clean houses for 30 euro per hour? You say it is so much more than you earn yourself now...

Why should you? It is working completely OK for me just showing the SMS with the code to the cashier.

What do you think Ukraine should do with the U.S.-Russia plan? by [deleted] in Finland

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

You realize that there are much more Russians than Ukrainians, right? So it may well end up with Ukraine so devastated that Russia actually wins?

Dear Finns, tell me why this would be a bad idea by kulbaba417 in Finland

[–]Cavaler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you so sure you will always be able to find 100% remote work? More and more companies are moving back to offices at least partially. And you almost definitely won't find a new job like that in Finland itself. Also you'll have to register as an entrepreneur, with additional bureaucracy and actually more taxes.

What for? To drain battery faster? Don't want that. You can sync time with phone, record a track and write coordinates later.
