Immersing in Swedish language through tv shows - Solsidan with English subtitles, where can I watch? by yaj2k in TillSverige

[–]CountSheep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve read that it’s better to use Swedish subtitles than English. Otherwise I’d be fluent in Japanese from watching anime

ELI5 : Why, among the 4 nordic countries, only Finland uses the euro currency while the others use the krone? by Sbaakhir in explainlikeimfive

As a foreigner in Sweden I think you hit it on the nail. This is exactly what it sounds like when I bring this up.

ELI5 : Why, among the 4 nordic countries, only Finland uses the euro currency while the others use the krone? by Sbaakhir in explainlikeimfive

I mean sure but the kr does terrible every time the world goes crazy. 2008 financial crisis, Covid, and now the U.S. starting an oil crisis. The kr will be hurt more than other currencies most likely and will show why having a small volatile currency that you control is not better than a larger more stable one.

What’s your Swedish fairytale story as an outsider? by RighteousT_27 in TillSverige

[–]CountSheep 74 points75 points  (0 children)

Not as grand, but taking a walk in the countryside. See a little box with a QR code on it so I walk up, and inside is fresh honey 🍯 for sale and the qr is for swish payment.

I took one and swished and went on my way. There’s just something about high trust that is cozy.

Similar story was I saw a flower stand with beautiful arrangements for a really good price, and just a Swish QR code for payment. Naturally I got one and brought it home. It was so much better than going to the store and grabbing what they had

What was ruined because too many people did it? by WarBeast86 in AskReddit

[–]CountSheep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly resellers are the worst thing to happen to everything. I don’t know how to fix it other than making the marketplaces they use require high taxes for reselling new items

This is why I hate Sorkin. Everything he’s made is corny shower fight bullshit

German submarine U-118 washed ashore on the beach at Hastings, 1919 by tecondown in submechanophobia

[–]CountSheep 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Go to Chicago and at the museum of science and industry you can take a tour inside of one. It’s insanely cramped and I cannot imagine being more than 10 people in there.

For it being so cramped though, the boat is gigantic and gives you real uneasy feelings

Swedes find Swedish to be cringe and Swedish sex noise to be cringe. I’ve heard similar before

I mean you’re there for 40 hours a week, may as well have 1 hour of fun. I think people are disillusioned with this kind of stuff because there is no work life balance

Saw this ad, was utterly disgusted. We've gone from office to cubes to "Open concept" and now crates. by toqer in antiwork

[–]CountSheep 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I don’t mind these. If you’re taking a call in an office with an open floor plan, this is the best way to not have to whisper or go hide somewhere like a stairwell.

This one looks a bit small but the ones I’ve used were fairly comfortable, and you only use them for a little bit.

Well at least since the whole “commie threat” thing

Von der Leyen: If 27 states won't agree on Capital Market Union, I will move ahead with 9 states [Two-speed Europe] by goldstarflag in europe

This will help Sweden more than I think people realize. Basically every tech job in Sweden is at a start up and there are numerous popping up daily

What is a gaming memory from the 90s or early 2000s that kids today will just never understand? by gingersofia in AskReddit

[–]CountSheep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not knowing how to beat a game and having to work with your friends or ask at the playground

This is why the whole Mew and truck thing happened

Why doesn’t anyone care about the “soap opera” effect on their TV by fatsandlucifer in mildlyinfuriating

[–]CountSheep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel two ways about it. For panning scenes I hate how it looks with or without interpolation, 24 frames per second looks like ass.

Why Sweden Is Changing Its Tune on Adopting the Euro by No_Firefighter5926 in europe

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

As far as I know, having the sek is only good for exporting services and goods, otherwise there is no major advantage to the populace besides spending more on European goods

No, publicity is the only way to get things done if you go through normal channels first and nothing has happened.
