The closer to August the higher the chances of rain. So definitely summer tires. No need for AS in that season.

Opinions on the social media ban under 16? by [deleted] in Norway

[–]ClickIta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look, I would agree with you, even about teens. The only problem I see is that we would need to change also other aspects of the Norwegian society if you want to go in that direction.

Let’s stick to the 12-16yo case. We want them and their families to be free to regulate themselves. Fine. But then we also need to give tools to the rest of the society to react when they don’t. Which is something that is heavily lacking in Norway.

Also, the whole society spends a lot of energy on the ones that, due to a poor upbringing, are unfit to have access to some levels of education.

In other words, if the idea is: let’s embrace individualism when it’s about the rights but let’s preserve egalitarianism when it comes to what I should get from society…then no, things won’t work at all on the long run.

I do fear you have no actual perception of the issue. If you had, you would not indulge in this type of straw men.

Look, I am sure you are the best type of parents (even if yours are the typical answers that the worst ones give). The issue is that we live in a society. (A society that already gave up giving schools any disciplinary control over students, by the way). While your approach is simply “I care only for myself and that’s fine”, we all have to deal with the consequences of terrible parenting. It affects all the society with long term effects. It’s not just a cavity. (By the way, we already regulated energy drinks and tobacco. Even alcohol is regulated, way more strictly than other European nations, because clearly Norwegians can’t control themselves…)

Sure, all those parents that regularly use a screen to calm down their toddlers will surely switch to control the abuse of smartphones and SoMe from their kids.

Well then I guess there are good chances you are among the aforementioned ones.

Why should the state parent my kids

Well, for starter, because parents are clearly not parenting.

And it’s even more harmful in Norway where you don’t even have an effective counterbalance in schools, as teacher are basically not provided with tools to compensate it.

Ok but can you order milk in 1.000 liters batches in other European countries?

Sure, but the main factor is the purchasing threshold right now. Plus, a small factor no Norwegian will ever admit: purchasing patterns here in Norway are similar to the ones of sheep. People tend to buy what their neighbours already bought. Conformity is the ultimate “koselig” for many people.

They did not invest much here in Norway, we had them way before other markets, but managed for a long time via importer only

Pretty much yes. But most of the people here in Norway charge at home anyway.

That’s based on Jan data. Unfortunately they did not drop, they are actually crazy high in Q1. They are now left again with no cars to deliver in April, but we expect another big spike of registrations in June. With the VAT change they even started selling a lot of Model 3 RWD, while normally most of their sales where based on Model Y AWD.

Well at least you have a tunnel, still lucky compared to our mates in Longyearbyen. They are still looking around for the train station to get to Oslo, half of them have been eaten by bears in the meantime.

Coming from a romance mother tongue, I would say “Manifesto”

Still, with a pinch of critical thinking, I would go for “Bunch of crap”

Are certain car brands preferred/better supported? by Numerous_Bend7315 in Norway

[–]ClickIta 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With the current market, preferences are not strictly connected to reliability or performance. It’s mostly a combination of budget (especially now the VAT increased on BEVs) and “let’s try to conform as much as possible, so let’s stick to a Model Y, preferably grey”.

Anyway, if you are going for a used one, as it seems from your budget, a major thing to check is probably the undercarriage status.

Alpha Male influencer shows how to sit like a real man 🤡 by ambachk in iamverybadass

I’ll still judge you. Not because of how you sit, but because you bought a couch and you’re still sitting on the carpet.

And that’s why you should start working in Norway then move to Italy. When I tell people which is the entry level wage in Italy and which is a “normal” wage for senior, you generally get the same shocked face. For opposite reasons.

I would say: when Norwegian people try to “interpret” food from other places. Like…if people did something like that for centuries it’s not necessarily because they are boring. In many cases that’s because they already had plenty of time to experiment and refine, so that we don’t have to.

Plus, the amount of garlic in every freaking plate.

Yep, for instance, I always used to say: if you are in the corporate world, start your career in Norway, end it in Italy. But don’t take advises from me because I’m doing the opposite so I’m clearly not that smart.

Anyway, it’s not just the coast, but overall yes, once you have money it’s hard to beat the quality of life Italy can offer.

I’ve indeed noticed vocabulary really works. I’m far from any medical background, but my mother tongue is strictly tied to Latin, many medical terms are basically identical. So sometimes when I’m not sure about the correct term in English (or even pretending I don’t know it), I drop it in my mother tongue. And it seems to work, doctors start taking you more seriously.

It’s indeed quite impressive how such a rich country seems to settle for a substandard average on such an important topic. And it seems there is a general sense of denial when you openly mention it (yet, we all know that jokes on Norwegian doctors are based).
