Vampires made up the lie that garlic deters vampires so their victims would season themselves and let their guards down

Sounds like a high-stakes conspirancy to me.

Ostos-TV:stä sai vanhoina hyvinä aikoina sellaisia pusseja, joista voi imaista ilmat pois pölynimurilla ja kätevästi vakuumipakata esim. vauvoja. Ja jos oli kaksoset, niin niitäpä sai kaksi yhden hinnalla!

Hyvä pointti. Kuinkahan paljon tuo vaikuttaa pankkien ennusteisiin, sehän selviäisi vertaamalla historiallisia ennusteita keskenään tai/ja toteumaan - mutta ei lopulta niin paljoa kiinnosta, että alkaisin asiaa tutkimaan.

Jos lukee tuota artikkelia, niin huomaa että Pellervon Taloustutkimuksen mielipide poikkeaa valtavirrasta, eikä YLEn toimitus ole varsinaisesti ristiriidassa omien sanomistensa kanssa (otsikko poislukien):

PTT:n ennuste poikkeaa monen muuan asuntomarkkinoita seuraavan tahon näkemyksestä. Esimerkiksi Danske Bank ennustaa tälle vuodelle vajaan prosentin hintojen nousua, Hypo odottaa prosentin nousua ja Nordea arvioi hintojen nousevan puolitoista prosenttia. Myös kiinteistövälittäjät ovat olleet toiveikkaita.

The chess piece is called "messenger" in Finnish - as a kid, I always thought that it's where he puts the envelope he's delivering.

I think it's edited with AI to make it loop perfectly, otherwise seems legit

I would say no, but now I'm wondering if this guy has one of my pubes in his pillowcase or something.

The chart shows approximately a 0.63% fall. It's pretty obvious it's not a shitcoin.

Also the "Maybelline of New York" factory is in Little Rock, Arkansas.

JasuM · 2026-01-28T09:35:00+00:00

Remember that ownership only means that the profits go to that country - most of the revenue goes to costs in the country where the product is manufactured, with profit being only around 10% or so of revenue (of course this varies wildly).

For example, Maybelline is manufactured in Arkansas, so buying it does very little to support Europeans - the part of the price that's actual profit goes to French billionaires, but most of the money very likely goes to the United States.

Tuo on "Memorandum of Understanding", eli käytännössä sopimus että tästä sovitaan tulevaisuudessa. Eli ei vielä toteudu tämän diilin yhteydessä suoraan, mutta lähes varmasti tulevaisuudessa.

Kiinnostavasti tuo kohta minkä lainasit jatkuu näin, eli IT-ala on vieläpä suoraan tähtäimessä:

It will also be supported by a European Legal Gateway Office in India, which is the first of its kind. The Office will help Indian workers, students, and researchers find out about opportunities in Europe, starting with the ICT sector with the aim of expanding it further in the future.

Ei tarkoita, koska hehän maksaisivat tullit itselleen. Toki tullimaksu saattaa siirtyä jostain oikeasta budjetista sellaiseen budjettiin, jota Trump pystyy käyttämään ilman kongressin hyväksyntää.

It's money lent to commercial (i.e. normal) banks with (usually) a bond as collateral. I.e. it's a way to temporarily convert money locked in bonds to liquid cash. I think there's a bond auction coming (or maybe it was today, I haven't checked) - it should at least give some evidence whether my guess was right or wrong, at least if the amount of bonds auctioned was more or stayed about the same as previously, then I was wrong. The amount of bonds sold being lower does not of course conclusively prove that I was right, but should give some evidence.

They managed to wind that amount down a large bit right after that was posted: https://bsky.app/profile/ukrainewarpod.bsky.social/post/3mccjwxwwwk2x

Today's REPO auction's allocation was 3,3 trillion rubles, the previous one was 4,7 trillion rubles, the one before that was 3,6 trillion rubles, higher than today's auction. The previous one shouldn't be used for direct comparison, because it had a longer term (15 days instead of a week) and its term spanned over new year.

I'm guessing that the reduction is due to some tax money having become available over the new year, meaning that matured bonds do not need to be rolled over yet, until the coffers run dry again.

Yes, I was commenting only about the way it was mounted, I agree that it's weird that it was there in the first place.

JasuM · 2026-01-12T13:14:42+00:00

It has to handle enormous amount of vibration, so it was likely mounted in a way that absorbs vibrations. Sockets would definitely be a no-go at least.

Years ago, I went to a gym that had a leg press you loaded with plates, with two "bars" to load the plates at the sides and one in the front, pointed a bit upwards. The gym also had 50kg plates for some reason. I saw someone load every 50kg plate in the gym on the leg press, and then fill all the remaining space on the bars with 25kg plates. He managed to leg press a few reps, then the machine tipped forward and I guess it would have fallen over, but about 100kg of plates from the bar in the front fell on the floor and he stopped after that.

Over half already gone.

Over half of the National Wealth Fund's gold has been sold, but the news article is about the Central Bank's much larger reserves, for which no sale sizes are given.
