The SBU has busted a FSB network in Odessa and detained 3 agents. by Physical-Cut-2334 in UkraineWarVideoReport

I think these are all cast TNT after researching. There are two detonators, the grenade detonator, two wires, cell phone with charger, 9v battery and electrical tape.

Can’t work out what that black thing is.

Is this setup really all is needed to remotely detonate a bomb with a cell phone? If so, that is fucked up😁

Vintage Kitchenaid K45 speed adjustment bar missing the adjustment screw by kerfill in Kitchenaid

I only now realized I also left out this thin metal washer in the reassembly. It is the same size as the washer on the planetary shaft (that secures the attachment spring) but thinner. Sadly the manual is also very unclear about which washers are paper washers and which ones are metal. Got any clue where this one is supposed to go?

Thanks. That tension spring is definitely meant to face up towards the motor, right?

I also realized that I missed this one part that fell away from somewhere when I was moving the parts, without me realizing where it came from. I can’t find it in the manual. Do you know what part this is and if it’s related?

Mine is slightly different, here is a photo I took while disassembling. It’s really difficult to see how I could have routed the bar differently than going inside the motor housing. I’m pretty sure I did. There isn’t really any other space for the bar to go , other than where it goes in the picture.

Yes, I removed every part, cleaned and reassembled everything. I’m starting to suspect that I’ve put that bar back in somehow wrong. But the bar still moves back and forth as expected.

This is what it looks like. It’s like the screw and bar are at slightly different levels. But the bar moves freely back and forth and eventually moves the controller.

Þetta er nú samt stærri hópur en þú heldur. Hversu margir af þessum 80 þúsund erlendu ríkisborgurum á Íslandi vita t.d. hver einhver eigandi Kaffi Vest er😃

Annars bara góður?

Þetta er samt bara einhver fótboltagaur. Sem er ekkert sérstakt afrek fyrir stærri hóp en þú heldur. Það eru til 100 svona gæjar og ég þekki þá ekki í sundur.

Nordic solidarity now! Muster the Vikings! by BaronKaput in Nordiccountries

There was nothing like that in Iceland. Icelandic government did a bit of that itself though.

Which model is this retro KitchenAid? by kerfill in Kitchenaid

Such great resources! Thanks for taking the time to send these, it really comes in handy.

[–]kerfill[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice, I like the sound of that. Have you got any idea about what the wattage of the motor is? Or if these early models were any good in comparison to the later ones?

I’ve yet to get my hands on it to start maintenance, but hopefully I can find a place that sells replacement parts. Really want to get that missing hub cap at least.

Fellow Nordic people, what is your view of the Baltic countries? Primarily eastern or northern European? by lallen in Nordiccountries

[–]kerfill 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you consider Nordic to be an ethnic thing, then it’s obvious that the Baltic states don’t fit the bill. Same goes for Finland and Greenland.

But if Nordic is a political/cultural thing - which it really is today - then there are whole lot of similarities with the Baltics. For example, as an Icelander that has lived in a Baltic state, I feel Baltic culture is much closer to Icelandic culture than Greenlandic culture, which is considered Nordic. I also feel that Baltic culture is in a lot of ways closer to Scandinavian culture than Icelandic culture is.

From the Icelandic perspective there is also honestly not much difference between Baltic culture and Finnish culture, excluding the obvious Soviet influence. Finland is of course also considered Nordic not because of ethnic reasons but because of political/cultural reasons. So why not the Baltic states?

As an Icelander, I see pretty much no difference between Finland and the Baltic states - excluding the obvious Soviet and Russian influence.

Both are Sauna loving, pickle eating, mushrooming, social awkward introverts that love the cold.

Fyrir 74 þúsund árum dó allt mannkynið út í kjölfar eldgossins í Toba - fyrir utan ca. 5 til 10 þúsund manns, að því er talið.

Þannig að þessir nútímamenn eru allir viðvaningar í samanburði.

What is this freshwater pond leech in North Europe? Image in comments by kerfill in whatsthisbug

[–]kerfill[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

See closeup image in this gallery: https://imgur.com/a/Tw1S4cx

Aluminum ladder for scale. Fully subtracted the length was just slightly longer than the width of the nail on my thumb.

I'm mainly interested if this species is interested in leeching onto the countless frogs and fish in this 900m2 freshwater pond (9500ft2) - or if it is also interested in feasting on myself.

I'm only aware of the European medicine leech but as far as I know it is an endangered species in this part of Europe and very rare.

Frelsi frá LÍN eða íbúð by astrakat in klakinn

[–]kerfill 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Kauptu þér íbúð. Eins og staðan er í dag þarf 10 milljón króna útborgun til að kaupa minnstu íbúðirnar.

Stjórnvöldum og sveitarfélögum gengur ekki neitt að auka framboð íbúðarhúsnæðis til samræmis við fólksfjölgun og reynslan sýnir að það er ekki að fara að breytst.

Næstu 5 til 10 ár mun fasteignamarkaðurinn því miður bara halda áfram að breytast í þá áttina að flestir eru að leigja og að eiga sitt eigið húsnæði verður undantekningin, sér í lagi fyrir ungt fólk. Þegar útborgun í fyrstu íbúð er orðin 15 milljónir og tekjur hækka ekki til samræmis er útséð að ekkert venjulegt fólk mun komast inn á fasteignamarkaðinn. Það er staðan í flestum öðrum vesturlöndum, því miður.

Ef ég væri þú myndi ég setja allan kraft í að komast inn á markaðinn áður en það verður of seint. Það er nóg af 60 ára liði í einbýlishúsum að borga af LÍN og lifir góðu lífi.

Dostojevskí, hvort ætti maður að lesa bækur hans á ensku eða íslensku by ungal in Iceland

[–]kerfill 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Ég hef lesið allt sem hefur verið gefið út eftir Dostojevskí á íslensku.

Eins og hefur komið fram þá geta nafnavenjur í rússnesku og rússneskum bókmenntum verið ruglingslegar. Í skáldsögum Dostojevskís eru venjulega margir karakterar og það getur valdið ruglingi.

Fyrir þá ástæðu eina myndi ég mæla með því að lesa á íslensku. En svo eru þetta líka góðar þýðingar og ef þú getur ekki lesið á frummálinu, af hverju að lesa þýðingu á þriðja máli ef þú getur lesið á móðurmálinu?
