  • Denmark’s social democrats were doing rough for a while against the conservatives and far right. After the immigration wave of 2015 they changed their stance (like most Nordics and the EU in general) towards an anti-immigration and xenophobe stance.

    This delivered them great success in elections due to them appropriating the popular talking points of the far right. Prior to this here in Norway, the social democrats, even as they were doing badly themselves, joked for some time that at least they were doing better than social democrats of Denmark.

    TL;DR The Nordic social democrats, with Denmark in the lead, want to be toughest in class on crime and immigration to do well in elections.

    In my opinion, this is just an internal contradiction of late stage capitalism, for which their ideology is not capable to compensate.


  • Geostationary orbit is far higher than low earth orbit and I would assume following earths twilight zone would not be much better. I do not see why you would either, with reaction wheels you could orient the satellites towards the sun regardless of the relative position of the earth, with the caveat that earth may block the sun which is hard to avoid entirely anyways.

    Also, there is not that much cool breeze in space, famously known for not having vast amounts of air (still have IR-radiation to help though).

    Edit: Probably ate the onion, didn’t I?

    Nice writeup and a fun read! Never thought I would encounter a fellow NixOS and FoundryVTT user in the wild, but I realize the Venn diagram of these kinds of users do have more overlap than I thought.

    With regards to your point about Foundry needing more power than a cheap VPS: I have it working fine on an Oracle cloud free tier VPS (unfortunately not the ARM-cores). That being said, it does want a little more power.

    I am not running it with NixOS though. I am renting a temporary space, so I do not own or want to do too much locally right now, and Oracle OCI was only sort of working with NixOS. I did manage to install it with nixos-infect, but think I messed up the SSH with my reverse proxy and had no way to fall back to a previous version, which begs the question how would you?

    You linked to “NixOS friendly hosters”, do those give you access to boot options to recover from such a case? Since I did not have that option I determined the risk of failure too great for setting up NixOS on that particular VPS provider.

    I also note that you use the nix-foundryvtt module and was wondering how your experience with it was. Does your sops define your login to the website such that it fetches the package automatically or do you have to manually install them?



    1. Bleed the fish by cutting along the neck and splitting the heart in two.
    2. Gut the fish.
    3. Use a flexible and thin knife to cut along the rib bones in the belly starting from the neck.
    4. Follow the bones with the knife down toward the tail.
    5. Cut toward the back by following the bones with the knife.
    6. Cut the bone that lies in the side fin up toward the neck.
    7. Cut the bones from the dorsal fins.
    8. Use a pair of fish bone tweezers to pull out the bones running through the middle of the fillet.

    3-6 are the parts that require skill. 8 is only needed in some fish. Others have bones on the side that just go 1/3 of the way down and you can just cut that part out in a V formation.









  • It was meant to be descriptive

    Twat: a stupid or annoying person

    Their populations intentions are to

    1. not to support an overtly fascist regime
    2. applying tit for tat as a game theoretic approach to US bullying

    However, the US has never been a great ally for anyone else. Historically they abandon nations whose use for them has expired. Economically and strategically they treat their so called allies as subjects, now even more so than before.
