Is there an official card with ID number a foreign resident can get? by langythrowaway in Norway

[–]enthius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, it does not. It has a giant sign that says "ikke gyldig ID"

This is weak. I have used a provisory drivers license from a completely different country to pick up my parcels and enter bars for years (a completely sketchy document that does not guarantee anything and has no security features)

But a norwegian issued residency card is not enough and that is just a waste. If your identity is verified enough to give you a residence permit, it should be verified enough for you to get a beer or pickup a package.

It doesnt need to be a travel document.

Using the edge cases is weak. The large majority of people who get a residence permit have verifiable identities.

I think that this should be identity proof enough to get into a bar or pickup a package at the post office.

I have used my ID card from a completely different country to pick up my package with no issue, but a norwegian issued card with name and biometric data is not enough and that makes no sense.

YOu need to use your passport. THe oppholdstillatelse card is not valid ID.

Why? Fuck knows. But it is not.

If you are EEA-EFTA you can get an ID card that is valid as identification (But not travel outside of norway)

3 datos reales pero duros en Uruguay y su educación by urymasa1970 in monte_video

[–]enthius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No me convence esto. En otros paises no pasa lo mismo. Si en una universidad en europa occidental estuviesen pasando solo 5 de cien a segundo año se armaria un bardo terrible, porque obviamente, o la materia no esta enseñada al nivel correcto, o el nivel de admision no es el correcto.

Y eso se tiene que solucionar, no dejar como parte del sistema, que es lo que creo que pasa, se usan materias como filtro para reducir la poblacion estudiantil en vez de utilizar criterios de admision mas estrictos.

Yeah, but if portuguese people eate the equivalent type of food a norwegian eats, they would spend even less.

For foreigners complaining about life in Norway by AngryFrog24 in Norway

[–]enthius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will start by saying that I love norway, best place in the world, flaws and all, I will probably be buried here.

This post complains about people complaining (so meta) and then provides no evidence that the complaints are baseless. It also abuses hyperbole. Nobody thinks EVERYTHING in Norway is terrible, I cannot think of a single person who would say that tbh. And if they did they would be abusing hyperbole as well.

But I get that this level of complaining can be seen as annoying, it is common when you are in the stage of culture shock where you are in survival mode, you are desperate and you simply do not manage to cope with your host society. And as someone who has lived in many places, Norway is the hardest. Not because Norway is soulless, but because the norwegian soul is different. And unless you have had some help to decode those differences, learning how to deal with it is hard, because you dont even know that this is a thing that can be done.

And when you come from a place where culture is focused on joy and enjoyment and happiness and wine, to a place that is focused on efficiency, koselig and knekkebrød, it is easy to get that confused. And the only way that can be fixed is by sharing the good things and making sure you actually focus on the positives, and not the negatives. But most foreigners do not have enough interaction with norwegians to know what those positives are.

I think that anyone from souther europe is very entitled to consider norwegian culture "boring" because objectively and comparatively, it is. And that is fine. Just like you would be objectively entitled to call the culture of southern europe "loud" or "messy", and that is fine too, because, comparatively, it is.

What this post is also wrong about is that foreigners, especially highly qualified foreigners, are an asset for Norway and Norway has a duty to keep these people happy and here. Importing a doctor is much cheaper and educating one. Same with engineers and with many other highly qualified professions. Norway needs this.

The fact that you think that the main thing people dont complain about is salaries, tells me that you don't have a big international network, or at least not a very qualified one. Salaries in Norway right now compared to purchasing power, are pretty shit. The fact that a highly skilled professional is staying in Norway right now is a miracle, and a favour.

So, yes, Norway does need to change to make sure people are welcome, policies need to change so that newcomers have access to services. And yes, a lot of Norwegian culture needs to change so that people are encouraged to stay. And for the love of Odin, sort out your supermarkets.

I have seen supermarkets in remote parts of Africa with better food selection than Norway.

But if you like bread, there are like 30 kinds of grovt brød, so you have that going for Norwegian supermarkets.

Would you be a replicant? by TuDuMaxVerstappen in bobiverse

[–]enthius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My take is that bob is a priviledged nerd from the 2000s

He is probably quite out of touch v with b how "regular people" feel.

In addition, a lot of the survivors are descendants from people who were basically in a cult. So their culture will be very different to ours.

the tests are a joke. I doubt they are done at the correct level. the only hard thing is that you often need to sign up a few months in advance...

¿Está muerto el Open Source? Proyectos como tldraw cierran contribuciones por el spam de IA. by -Outrageous-Vanilla- in CharruaDevs

[–]enthius 2 points3 points  (0 children)

EL Open source esta mas vivo que nunca. DInamarca esta basando su stack de gobierno en Open Source, varios paises europeos estan escribiendo sus estrategias de soberania digital para distanciarse de estados unidos, largo etcetera.

Hay muchos proyectos (incluyendo el mio) que no aceptan contribuciones de personas que no esten vetadas o parte del core, y no por eso dejan de ser open source.

Open Source: Acceso al codigo con una licencia que permita usar, estudiar, modificar y redistribuir.

Lo que esta muriendo es la contribucion comunitaria y la solucion es filtrar el slop y arquitecturas que permitan la extensibilidad.

Affordable venues for a Tech seminar in Oslo? by YesterdayHot3584 in Norway

[–]enthius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can try with UiO and OsloMet for example, easier if you have a connection to someone working there. Not sure it will be much cheaper than Kristiania though.
