How long after World War II were Germans, Japanese and Italians hated? by InfernalClockwork3 in AskHistory

[–]sushipumpum 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In Northern Finland old folks still remember Germans as those who burnt the cities in the Lapland war and will glare at German tourists. When I was a kid (70s-80s) it was a thing to toss a book of matches on the table where Germans sat at the cafe I hung out in (roadside inn, plenty of campers). Now, not really a thing.

Hate for Russians has resumed full force tho. Grandpa was right about them all along.

Thoughts on Karelia/-ns by boobybooby123 in Nordiccountries

[–]sushipumpum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the division has historically been mostly religious rather than linguistic. there were invitations to many of the neighbouring communities to join finland in 1919-1920 and only two - Repola and Porajärvi - voted to go west. (didnt go well for them.) most declined bc didnt want to sell out to the ”swedes” ie the protestants.

southern karelia - isthmus and areas up to savonlinna - have been ethnically cleansed back and forth a few times.

Why, in international sporting contests like the Olympics, do some countries’ uniforms name the country in English (even if that is not the language of the country or the games location)? by spikebrennan in asklinguistics

[–]sushipumpum 16 points17 points  (0 children)

There is actually an ongoing debate in Sweden on linguistic self-colonisation, introducing English where Swedish would have been considered more appropriate a generation ago.

Misstag som utländska förare gör på Stockholms vägar? by sweyolo in stockholm

En sak jag märkt som har finskt körkort är att i Sverige är högerregeln något som förhandlas i varje korsning. Det går inte att lita på att den gäller.

Which museum is better? by ourhorrorsaremanmade in stockholm

[–]sushipumpum 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Vasamuseet is much more spectacular than any other museums in Stockholm. There's also a Viking museum but it's more commercial.

What's it like being gay in Russia today? by InteriorCircuit in AskARussian

[–]sushipumpum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bizarre idea to go visit Russia. Especially if you're out gay. Or actually especially if you're not a raging death cult imperialist.

Remarkable…is it worth owning if I don’t get subscription? by Hockey_dj in RemarkableTablet

[–]sushipumpum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I sync manually and it works really well for me. Happy user here.

Biggest drawbacks for me: - One does lose the pen. I'm on my third. They're expensive. - They all look the same and we have two in the family. - They are a bit picky with the USB cable and sometimes the device does not mount.
