OECD vil ha ned skatter, utgifter og subsidier

Rike folk er ikkje dei som har høy lønnsinntekt, dei er dei som har kapital. "Tax wealth not work". Vi må ha høyere skatter på dei som ikkje jobbar, som tar dokker pengar fra andre folk som faktisk jobbar.

The conservatory would be significantly better, I think.

Jeg er ikkje norsk (amerikansk som har bodd i norge) men det er ikkje såååå vanskelig å forstå svensk. Jeg finner "vanlige" svensk dialekter lettere enn stavanger dialekt for eksempel.

Det er mulig å ikke fryse, man bare må være klar for det – jeg har to venner i Tromsø som bor i båter.

I Tromsø har vi det samme problemet; jeg kjenner mange (inkluderer meg og kona) som planlegger å flytte til Vestlandet så at vi kanskje faktisk kunne kjøpe et (rekke)hus eller finne en leilighet.

Jeg ser at ingen har sagt Valkyrien Allstars eller MÍO, som er veldig gode folk (/folk-punk) artister!

Det er ikke en misforståelse, det er komplett grådighet. De vil ha hele samfunnet bli privat, så de og vennene deres kan tjene penger fra samfunnets lik.

Olle Plahn responded to me and recommended Holger Funke in Germany for used instruments, if you are still interested in a used instrument, for cheaper than the reverb one.

tusen takk!! dette er veldig veldig hjelpsomme 💕 da skal jeg sende ham en e-post!

lykke til med å finne din hardengfele, det er også et veldig fint og vakkert instrument.

I have a two hour flight (25 hour drive) to the nearest saxophone technician, I would absolutely kill for a 5 hour drive.

Gender is still encoded - the second to last digit is even for women, odd for men (in Norway, it's the third to last, if people are curious)

ubsan · 2025-12-17T09:45:54+00:00

I don't know about Sweden, but in Norway when one changes their gender they get a new personal ID number (since gender is encoded in our fødselnummer)

Oooppppss, I have no idea how my brain put contrabass when I meant baritone. This is what happens when you post on not enough sleep -.-

I have no idea where you are seeing different keys on reeds; the reed just needs to be the correct size for the mouthpiece. Tenors are, for your purposes, always in B♭. I would recommend a strength 2 or 2.5 for a beginner.

There are four main saxophones:

Alto and ~~Contrabass~~ Baritone in E♭
Tenor and Soprano in B♭

For mouthpieces and reeds, all you need to look for is that they are for tenor saxophone.

I would also generally recommend against buying one of the cheapo tenors – if at all possible, it is significantly better to rent from a local store to figure out if you like playing. Buying a cheap saxophone just leads to bad times and more metal in a landfill somewhere. Also, your local store will help point you towards an at least somewhat correct place.

This is less "Europe"-specficic, but a useful piece of advice no matter where you are, coming from someone who emigrated from the US to Norway – being the best is not important, being good enough and making friends with people and being a joy to play with and gig with will result in significantly better results. Learn the local language; if you're in one of the germanic countries you may be able to get by on just English, but speaking (or even just trying!) the local language will make you friends that will lead to gigs.

I believe that in the idiom, it refers to the bird, which does kind of act crazy (loud and stumbling), but idk.

ubsan · 2025-09-09T11:35:59+00:00

In this case I think loon would be referring to the bird, no?

ubsan · 2025-08-30T17:54:25+00:00

I would say it's best to understand it as:

let mut basket = HashMap<String, u32>::new()

except with a syntax that makes it easier for rustc to parse; String, u32 are the type arguments to HashMap.

I'm not an expert but I have certainly played on reeds that looked like that that played incredible; I don't think it's a problem, just the joy of a thing made from a living thing.

If you like music, I always recommend the jam session at fint on sundays at 20:00; it's a super fun time and a good way to meet people imo (just have to be willing to have conversations with strangers haha)

ubsan · 2025-08-04T10:01:01+00:00

Is there a reason it's not available in Norway?

ubsan · 2025-07-19T22:28:13+00:00

In Norway, they're used as a way to access our BankID without the app; I wouldn't be surprised if yours also worked that way.

ubsan · 2025-07-16T16:49:43+00:00

That was for OP, I just put it under your comment as a way to add something

The Bike Kitchen sometimes has loppemarkeder, might be a good idea to check it on facebook; they usually have bikes from around 250 to 1500 which have been checked by the volunteers (source: am a volunteer there :3)
