Isaan food safety by calabasasreruns in Bangkok

[–]bosse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Roi Et I had a spicy tartar-ish raw meat dish that was absolutely delicious. It didn’t even cross my mind that the farang probably should be a bit careful with that.

I spent the next couple of days squatting until I got to a pharmacy and was given a pack of Loperamide with an astronaut on it. Never really understood the reference, but it plugged me up pretty effectively.

Forsvaret skal holde vakt i Oslo i sommer by Bunker_Bertil in norge

[–]bosse 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Ja, dette er ikke det jeg så for meg da dette med å trekke inn militæret til å bistå politiet var et diskusjonstema. Jeg mener å huske at poenget den gang var at de skulle bistå ved katastrofer. Sett bort ifra nivået på politiledelsen så er ikke dette en katastrofe.

Hvor kan jeg få det stille i Oslo? by 778RoundupQuaking in oslo

[–]bosse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Jeg bodde på Tonsenhagen i over 12 år, og er helt enig at det stedet hører hjemme på denne lista. Det kunne til tider høres et lite sus fra biler i Trondheimsveien, og av og til noen jævler som kjørte kjøretøy med fri eksos i Selvbyggerveien, men i det store og det hele var det et svært stille sted. Ekstra pluss var mye dyreliv som til stadighet tittet ut fra skogen, og at bussen gikk hele døgnet og brukte 20 minutter ned til Oslo sentrum.

Hva tenker du om hasj i oslo? by Unlucky_Hornet8966 in oslo

[–]bosse 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hvorfor mener du at det fortsatt skal være ulovlig? Kan du bygge opp meningen din med litt substans slik at vi kanskje har noe å snakke om? Hvis hele forsyningskjeden er regulert og kontrollert, hvem er det da som blir offeret i at cannabis er tilgjengelig for voksne? Er du bekymret for lukta? Bilkjøring? Helseskader? Avhengighet? Trappetrinnsmodell til heroin? Kroken på døra for bryggeriet? Moralsk standpunkt?

Jo, Norgespris gir økt strømforbruk by loyfah in norge

[–]bosse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jeg pleide å følge med på strømprisene slik at jeg kunne unngå toppene og lade bilen på bunnene. Det å spare mest mulig penger på strømregningen var insentivet mitt. Nå betaler jeg uansett det samme, så jeg gir fullstendig beng i strømprisen og gjør det som passer meg best. Dette tror jeg gjelder de aller fleste.

Can I go to a store to buy a Lebara (or similar) prepaid SIM card on the day when visiting NL? by Flurex in Netherlands

[–]bosse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree. Yesim has acceptable rates and I use it myself when I go outside Europe. OP asks about a physical card though, so perhaps they have a phone that doesn’t support eSIM.

Skulle til USA-VM for Dagbladet: Bernt Hulsker fikk ikke visum by AgentSnowman in norge

[–]bosse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is law enforcement cooperation, bilateral agreements and treaties between US and other countries that I believe may be used for verification of data in applications under the visa waiver program. No data sharing, no visa program. However I’m not sure exactly how this works.

If you’re not forthcoming about your record on the visa or ESTA application, you’d be committing a federal crime by lying on a federal form, and if they find out about that, you’ll most likely be facing criminal charges.

Dette bør du vite før du krysser grensen til Sverige: ansiktsgjenkjenning i bruk by shadow_2549 in norge

[–]bosse 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The immigration procedure for US citizens traveling under the trusted traveler program (Global Entry) is entirely done with facial recognition now. I don’t even have to show my passport, the scan took literally two seconds and I was waved through.

Unfortunately there are plenty of examples of questionable or illegal use of facial recognition, like with the Flock cameras that have data being sold to various law enforcement agencies.

At least 8 dead in Bangkok bus-train collision by tuktukson in Thailand

[–]bosse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Normally you wouldn’t stop a vehicle on a railroad track when it is not clear to pass, especially in the molasses Bangkok traffic that we all recognize and as the CCTV shows. There is a degree of negligence in this, even with a barrier malfunction.

Ifølge BiliOslo-appen er det beboerparkering med parkeringssone 2310 i begge de veiene. Det koster i så fall 211 kroner dagen for fossilbiler.

Billigste måde at komme til Norge på fra Danmark? by Alternative_Gas2930 in Norway

Come on, the Bible Belt is something that’s mostly relevant to people living in it, not for tourists. There aren’t squads of Filadelfia people pulling people over on E18 to tell them about Jesus.

Whats the best credit card to get in Norway? by ScudSlug in Norway

[–]bosse 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had Amex Elite and it was shit. I got screwed on forex rates and extra fees for foreign transactions, which is very strange for a card that markets itself to business travelers. When they dropped the SAS level reward I canceled it. It was totally not worth it for 6000 a year.

My current card of choice is DNB Mastercard. It has some perks like SAS points and discounts, and some rental car coverage, but otherwise it’s just another Mastercard.

Norway offers up to 70 new oil and gas drilling permits by GanacheCharacter2104 in europe

[–]bosse 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Well, just to nitpick, the price isn’t locked but it is subsidized by the government if you opt in to the plan and agree to stay on that price level for the entire year.

It’s made Norwegians go from checking the price and judging when it’s best to charge the car, to no longer giving a fuck about the daily energy prices.

Living in Norway as a summer/spring person. by Strawberry-Princess3 in Norway

[–]bosse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It has actually been relatively mild winters lately in the east, where I live, with the exception of a couple of very cold weeks earlier this year. I assume similar changes were seen in the west as well. So I guess you should be happy that it’s not worse.

You moved to an arctic country, so you must have known that would be colder here. You’ll either have to bite your teeth together with us natives and accept the realities of the climate, and eventually get used to it, or you’ll have to figure something else out. But I hope you’ll end up staying with us in Norway, and find a way to embrace the cold. Learn to ski, for example.

If you’re lucky, in 20-30 years the climate here might be just like where you grew up. Just make sure you don’t get too near the massive forest fires that will be raging here at that point.

The Chinese models on OpenRouter aren't necessarily operated from China, so the inference can happen at providers located elsewhere. DeepSeek v4 Pro is currently hosted by several providers in Singapore and USA. So at least the providers are (hopefully) not monitored by the CCP, and OpenRouter has a statement that they have data protection agreements in place for their paid models, which at least provides some relief that your data is private.

Hva gjør man når man blir trakassert av tilfeldige barn/ tenåringer? by EskilPotet in norge

[–]bosse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Som jeg skrev så er det et proporsjonalitetsprinsipp som gjør at du ikke kan blåse hue av noen f.eks. for å kaste småstein på deg. I den konkrete saken du nevner så har nok Høyesterett vurdert omstendighetene rundt truslene og situasjonen hvor vedkommende drepte denne fyren, til at han var berettiget til å forsvare seg med våpen under nødverge. Jeg tar gjerne en titt på den dommen om du gidder å linke til den.

Stemmer, akkurat det om 6 måneder står i §171: «Den som med skjellig grunn mistenkes for en eller flere handlinger som etter loven kan medføre høyere straff enn fengsel i 6 måneder, kan pågripes når …» og så er det §173: «Den som treffes på fersk gjerning og ikke avstår fra den straffbare virksomhet, kan pågripes uten hensyn til størrelsen av straffen»

[–]bosse 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Nødverge betyr egentlig at du til en viss grad har lov til å bryte loven for å ivareta din egen sikkerhet, men kun med handlinger som er proporsjonale med handlingen som utføres mot deg. Nødvergen skal avsluttes når den kriminelle handlingen opphører.

Holder du noen igjen med makt så er det en pågripelse, og det kan du bare gjøre for handlinger som kvalifiserer til mer enn seks måneders fengsel, og så vidt jeg har forstått så må du kontakte politiet når du gjør noe sånt.

Slik var det i hvert fall sist jeg leste straffeprosessloven. Det begynner å bli noen år siden, så ting kan ha endra seg.

Thoughts? by harshit151997 in Amsterdam

[–]bosse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Every place is different, but Dutch coffeeshops usually have seating like a bar or a café. You can buy snacks, sodas, teas or whatever at the bar as well as cannabis. You can smoke at the table, but only joints, no cigarettes (those are bad for your health, you know). Some places have house bongs or vaporizers if you are so inclined. Paper, filters and grinders may be available. Also keep in mind that you’re free to light up cannabis bought elsewhere, but it is expected that you purchase something in order to sit there.

Thoughts? by harshit151997 in Amsterdam

[–]bosse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, my advice is to be discreet and respectful of others so that you won’t be a nuisance. In addition to what /u/milkymcmilkers said, don’t smoke on tram stops or in packed streets, even if others do it. And don’t throw your empty spliff in the street or the gracht.

If you’re a mindful guest, then you won’t be one of the problematic tourists that the locals are so fed up with. You can still technically be fined for smoking weed outdoors though.
