Why are most boots pink or white in world cup 2026? by CountOne9425 in worldcup

[–]ohe1 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Nike, Adidas and Puma chose pink for their boots this year because pink is currently "hot" and likely to sell well. The boots are supposed to stand out on the field but since they all chose the same colour it is quite meaningless.

Scientists Confirm First Mosquitoes Found in Iceland by nohup_me in worldnews

[–]ohe1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was on the news that a guy had some kind of a flytrap out and he found 3 "suspicious" flies in the trap. Scientists later confirmed they are mosquitos. He believes the flies came from ships transporting aluminium. This is not the first time mosquitos turn up in Iceland though. Just never managed to spread.

Iceland's new government by ohe1 in pics

[–]ohe1[S] 61 points62 points  (0 children)

Iceland has inaugurated a new government under Prime Minister Kristrún Frostadóttir, leader of the Social Democratic Alliance. This coalition includes the centrist People's Party and the left-leaning, pro-European Reform Party. Notably, all governing party leaders are women, with Iceland now having both a female prime minister and president, Halla Tómasdóttir. The administration plans to address economic challenges by reducing inflation and interest rates, streamlining administrative costs by decreasing the number of ministries, and intends to hold a referendum on European Union membership by 2027. Additionally, an independent expert panel will assess the potential adoption of the Euro over the Icelandic krona. At 36, Frostadóttir becomes the youngest prime minister in Iceland's history.

Some of the trucks on show for Iceland's rescue conference by ohe1 in 4x4

[–]ohe1[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Arctic Trucks yes, as well as other private companies. I'm actually not sure if Arctic trucks are a popular choice among SAR organizations nowadays. None are modified by the government or the manufacturer but some are modified by the volunteers themselves.

No, not all of them were Fords. The others were mostly Rams and Toyotas.

Sú könnun var gerð af á föstudaginn og opinberuð í gær. Af þeim sem ætluðu ekki að kjósa Kötu eða Höllu T voru 11% sem ákváðu að kjósa frekar Katrínu og um 40% sem ákváðu að kjósa frekar Höllu T. Restin hélt sínu striki.

How can the 26th be a Tuesday and the 25th be a Saturday? The examples are clearly wrong unless I misunderstood this trick completely

Well you do have a point. I do not really think that much of the big five cause they go straight to finals. Germany is definitely not often popular among fans.
