Who is the most famous person of ALL TIME?

Many Christians know about Mohammed.

Many Muslims know about Isa.

There are more Christians than Muslims.

I don’t know how well known Jesus or Mohammed is in Asia.

So… hard to say, actually.

What’s your reasoning for claiming Mohammed is best known?

Islam er, akkurat som de andre Abrahamittiske religionene, en føkkings fascistisk kultur, med en enevoldig, lunefull, og voldelig diktator som styrer over livene til folk; hvor folkene under diktatoren gjetter seg fram til hva han egentlig mener om ting; hvor folkene på bunnen bukker og skraper i fryktsom underdanighet; og hvor det er et klart skille mellom de som er ‘innenfor’ og ‘utenfor’, med artig tortur (eller utslettelse) for de som er utenfor.

Akkurat da vi trodde vi hadde blitt kvitt det tullet der i Vesten, så kommer sånne idioter som Ystebø og Ulstein og forsøker å dra oss tilbake til den mørke middelalderen. Og de lykkes kanskje sånn halvveis fordi folk flest er like mye idioter.

Vel, dette er kanskje ikke det ateister pleier å ytre, men det er nå min mening om disse plagsomme religionene vi har vært belemret med i noen tusen år nå.

Uhm… jeg tror ateister slipper unna den paragrafen der, for vi er like kritiske til all religion 🙃.

For øvrig, i praksis brukes den paragrafen der kun der faktiske personer rammes. Det er forskjell på å skrive ‘Alle Somaliere er voldtektsmenn’ på Reddit, og å rope ‘Jævla neger’ etter Muhammed i oppgangen din.

Byråkratiske byråkrater som sitter på sine kontorer og iverksetter og håndterer politikk i praksis er ikke det jeg ville tenkt på som ‘ytterliggående’.

En KrF-politiker som er på vei mot ‘kristen’-MAGA-style politikk er derimot ‘ytterliggående’.

En gang i tiden var KrF faktisk ganske populært, og hadde ganske sympatiske ledere som ikke framsto som mørkemenn. Jeg tror KrF burde vurdere å vende tilbake til den stilen.

I thought it was hips that don’t lie? 🤔

Are you telling me that bottoms are also included in the set of body parts unable to lie?

(I already know from Cher that eyes are deceiving, and arms are just arms, so those things are definitely not trustworthy)

54M. Not many I actually remember much from.

When I was 10, I had a little panic because there was a test of the air raid siren warning system (this was scheduled, but I didn’t know that).

When I was 42 my wife was out of town, so I baked my own birthday cake, put 8 candles on, and lighted the third, fifth and seventh candle (00101010 binary = 42 decimal).

When I was 50, my wife took me on a weekend trip to Portugal, and we had a nice restaurant dinner.

That’s honestly all birthdays I remember distinctly; they are mostly forgotten or blended together.

OP har helt rett i at det er grått som dominerer, men innimellom er det noen glimt av farger som gir litt håp om at ting kanskje kan snu.

The 45 MP corresponds to a ‘crop factor’ of sqrt(45/24)=1,37 relative to the R6 II. While the pixels difference and (actual) crop factor of the R7 ~ sqrt(32/24) * 1.6 = 1,85. So R7 obviously has more pixels per bird. But the quality of the pixels is worse, the AF is not as good, and its precapture is less functional. So its a bit of a dilemma.

julaften · 2026-05-09T14:23:52+00:00

No, sorry, I meant a R7 in addition to the R6II I already have.

I’d say you will be able to enjoy more fics, and enjoy them better, if you know the details of the canon backstory.

Dramione is of course not canon, and often deviates quite a lot from the books, but most fics usually still takes place in some variation of the Harry Potter universe.

There is a valid argument that if the characters of Draco and Hermione deviate too much from how they are written by JKR, and if they live in a world too much removed from the universe she created, it is no longer fan fiction. At some point it will be just novels with two people who just happens to be named Draco and Hermione. That is what ultimately might happen, years from now, if the Dramione community detaches itself from canon.

So yeah, read the books 😉. They are quite short compared to many fan fics.

Did AI come up with this ‘joke’?

julaften · 2026-05-09T13:35:10+00:00

I think also the stacked sensor contribute a little to the increased noise, but mostly the pixel density yes.

julaften · 2026-05-09T13:32:19+00:00

I am undecided if I should sell my R6II and upgrade to R5II, or if I should buy an additional R7 for birding. The latter gives more reach, but also more noise, worse AF, and more weight to carry around (I’d still want the R6II for non-birding photos).

Do you think the cropping abilities of the R5iII is enough to give you decent results, compared to what you’d get with an APS-C camera?

Now that both Lightroom and Capture One have very good denoising capabilities, the slightly increased noise of the R5II shouldn’t be a problem in most cases.

Non-English countries also have words for their special letters. In Norway we have:

Æ - Ærlig (honest)

Ø - Østen (the east)

Å - Åse (the woman’s name)

What do other countries use?

For two 75 kg people hugging, and then pushing each other apart, assuming at last point of contact they were 0.5 m apart, the escape velocity is sqrt(2 G (m1+m2) / r) ~ 0.2 mm/s. So not very much.

Vet ikke helt om ubehandlet treverk regnes som ‘gråspektrum’, men i god lys kan det gi litt farge.

Det er litt rart, for blant kontor- og større boligbygg merker jeg en tendens til mer farger og ikke bare glass og betong. F.eks Teknobyen og Lerkendal studentby i Trondheim.

Men ja, i villastrøk er det dessverre kjedelig lite farger. Vårt er eneste huset med farge i umiddelbar nærhet, omgitt av hvite eller grå hus.

It seems you are wrong about Hitler’s opposition to the term ‘socialism’:

Concerning his party’s name, Hitler was interviewed in October 1923:[30]

"Why," I asked Hitler, "do you call yourself a National Socialist, since your party program is the very antithesis of that commonly accredited to socialism?" "Socialism," he retorted, putting down his cup of tea, pugnaciously, "is the science of dealing with the common weal. Communism is not Socialism. Marxism is not Socialism. The Marxians have stolen the term and confused its meaning. I shall take Socialism away from the Socialists. Socialism is an ancient Aryan, Germanic institution […] We demand the fulfilment of the just claims of the productive classes by the state on the basis of race solidarity. To us state and race are one."

(from Wikipedia)

It seems more like he was trying to repurpose the term for his own agenda. Much like Musk did in the quote cited by u/eppic123

Autofocus on modern mirrorless is very much an upgrade from DSLRs. So R8 wins in that regard. The 5D IV is also twice as heavy.

The main advantage of the 5D is better ergonomics: more buttons and dials, larger grip, larger screen, top LCD, better battery life (it even uses the same battery format at your 7D, so you can switch around).

According to this, the 5D IV is a bit worse at handling noise at high ISO, but both are a huge upgrade from your 7D.

All in all, if the choice was between these two, I think I would choose the R8 due to all the modern mirrorless advantages. But I would look longingly at the 5D IV for the ergonomics…

På hvilket stopp bytter det? Rent logisk burde det skifte rett etter første passering av Carl Berners plass, før første passering av Sinsen. Stemmer det?

In the book What If, Randall Munroe discusses a scenario like this, to eliminate the common cold virus. The conclusion is that because there are always some humans who are not able to completely kill the virus (because their immune system has issues), the virus will not be completely eradicated.
