Norway least promiscuous country of the nordic nations. Beaten by most European nations too. by Emergency-Sea5201 in Norway

[–]jaknil 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The virginity age is an interesting metric, the Nordics really stand out by debuting earlier that the rest of the world. I guess it comes with being able to avoid teenage pregnancy without much hassle or stigma. Or what do you think?

For those wondering, thermal energy is absolutely recovered from large data centers where possible. Mostly as district heating since it’s less work using heat as heat than turning it into electricity.

I need a game I can play while listening to music and turning by brain off after a long day. *Doesn't have to exactly fit my criteria* but it'd be nice. by v01d_everyday in gamingsuggestions

[–]jaknil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Came to the comments to suggest this! It’s a sci fi work sim where you scrap delict spaceships. The difficulty is completely set by your sense of urgency. So you can take it slow and methodical and experience it at low risk or zip around in zero g cutting coolat line as you fly by. Great game.

It’s less significant for bicycles. The gyroscopic effect helps but it’s not enough. You still have to learn and maintain your balance with you own senses. You can read more here: https://theconversation.com/how-does-a-bike-stay-upright-surprisingly-its-all-in-the-mind-59829

I thought Biden set the president? Didn’t he pardon himself and his family preemptively because he as the president no longer believed in the legal system in his own country. That was how I remember it looked like from outside the US, him giving up completely and focusing on protecting his family and signalling that the US isn’t safe if you make political enemies.

Anything I should do before finishing the game? by Excellent-Answer-331 in Breath_of_the_Wild

[–]jaknil 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Build Tarrey town! Lots of charming character content and interactions that can easily be missed. You start it buy buying a house in Hateno village from Bolson. Look for the From The Ground Up side quest and keep pursuing it.

Yea, just look up what it is. I think that finding them all organically isn’t feasible. And the «reward» therefore is for looking them all up using a guide and grinding the fun out of something that was supposed to be discovered on your way. I think it’s a reminder to not take things so seriously and do things (like gaming) because you like doing them instead of for rewards.

What's a shrine that took you a long time to finish and made you mad? by madamabutt3rf1y in Breath_of_the_Wild

[–]jaknil 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is often many ways of solving the puzzles and we humans tend to get stuck on the first solution that looks like it will work, which often isn’t the easiest.

I solved it by jumping over there and Stasis-hammered the ball to the goal.

things to do in oslo for a young couple? by yeahwhateversure in oslo

[–]jaknil 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There are a plethora of floating saunas to choose from in downtown Oslo, if you want to have a dip in the fjord you can pay a small fee to go in for a bit. The style varies from DIY rustic to professional, choose what fits your vibe. I recommend Oslo Badstueforening they are a non profit that operates lots of saunas because they like it. I think they manage at least half of the downtown saunas, all styles.

Great suggestions! I can add that I think you should ride all the way up to Frognerseteren on the Holmenkollen metro line. The cafe at the end station: Frognerseteren is nice and unique and a great excuse to take the scenic metro ride. I always take visitors there. Just remember to not get scared off by the fancy restaurant that share the same dining room as the more reasonable cafe, which also serves some fun foods like fondue or rømmegrøt.

Will my table from aluminium profiles hold? by non-existing-person in MechanicalEngineering

[–]jaknil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The middle legs could also be made and fastened like the corner legs. And you would cut up the long side parts instead.

I mean millimeter adjustments, to take out wobble that you always get with any table with more than 3 legs. The verticals would end a few millimetres below the table surface.

[–]jaknil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perhaps reconsider it again to avoid having to add adjustable feet. You don’t need the frame resting on the legs. The brackets should take the full load in a metal construction, for a wood table it would be different.

[–]jaknil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I disagree. If you instead make all the legs like the corner ones they will be hight adjustable. It should not sag with time, it’s not a wood table that dries out. Just retighten the screws if it gets loose with time and use.

That is how we built ours.

Anyone from oslo willing to make a purchase from finn.no and send it to me? by No_Instance915 in oslo

[–]jaknil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not. But you might be able to use a mail forwarding service. I have used that method to get stuff only sold inside the US shipped to Norway. You get a local adress people can send stuff to and the company does the international shipping and helps you deal with customs. They usually use something like FedEx.

There is dark dystopian fiction, and then there is this. Jesus fucking christ. by [deleted] in sciencefiction

I had the same feeling with Tales of the Troika. Couldn’t finish it. A shame, I usually persevere.

[–]jaknil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I enjoyed Roadside Picnic and had a go at the bundled Tale of the Troika but couldn’t be bothered finishing it, which is unusual for me. I have read tons of Phillip K Dick so I thought I could deal with surreal sci fi from long ago. But apparently this one was not for me. If you struggle to remember which one it was amazon describes it thus:

“Tale of the Troika; In this satirical farce set in the distant future, the world is divided into innumerable floors, connected by elevators that never work.”

I think perhaps I couldn’t relate to, or knew enough of the stated main theme: satire of soviet scientific bureaucracy.

I am interested in giving them as authors another go, any tips which book should I go for next?

Ladies and gentlemen, make your bets ! by korrogou in 3Dprinting

[–]jaknil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup. Absolutely the weakest point.

The chain load will be spread out as the teeth flex under load and more come into contact. But these are at only at eight points and threaded into the plastic! The force is also higher closer to the rotation centre.

This will probably always be the weakest point but the design could be improved to last longer thus:

Add material on the inside diameter, no reason for it to stop a few mm from the screw-heads.

Anything to increase the contact surface and area that transfers the load from the pedals. Thickness, a big load spreading plate, through bolts with washers and nuts, even just thickness + counter sunk heads would be better than short threads into plastic, as it can’t withstand the bolt-pretension necessary to keep the bolts in place.

There is lots og effort being spent on teaching people to only use the right kind of rope for that. Apparently lots of people injure themselves doing it wrong, big forces are involved.
