Yeah, just follow the sound of the banjo.

Det er en spændende udsendelse.

Jeg har ikke en skid til overs for dem som udnytter kolonihaverne til at bygge ubeskattede kæmpe villaer, men en total håndhævning af lovgivningen vil også ramme i den anden ende, hvor nogle skæve eksistenser bor der permanent fordi de ikke her råd til andet.

Hvis det bare var de rige svin, så kunne kommunen jo bare omdanne området til almindelige parceller og opkræve værdien af grunden og ejendomsskatter. Så ville kolonien ganske vist være ødelagt, men det er den jo i forvejen med det byggeri. Kommunen kunne måske åbne en ny koloni et andet sted samtidig.

Det er helt tydeligt i programmet at nogle af de deltagende har levet over evne. En del af dem opfører sig og ligner personer på overførselsindkomst, så det ser sgu lidt mærkeligt ud at de har råd til kæmpestore villaer midt i byen. Deres eksistens er en konflikt i sig selv, så jeg kan godt forstå at de selv synes det virker urimeligt at skulle rive lortet ned. Det er det bare ikke. De er ganske enkelt kommet for langt ud i deres svindelnummer.

It already was unsafe for aircraft from most countries anyway. This is just a kind warning for Russia and China who still flies there. It'll be interesting to see what China does. It was only yesterday that someone here wrote how he preferred the Chinese airlines because they flew the fast route over Russia. Guess you need to reconsider that.

Yes ok, if you really want to see it, but I gotta know: how many raccoons is one camera?

There was an open window to get this sorted.

Sweden is very bureaucratic and relying heavily on their domestic identification systems which are notoriously impossible to navigate for foreigners. However it is of absolute necessity to get this part sorted out in order to make any kind of communication with the government in Sweden, so it boggles my mind if anyone didn't have access to the application long beforehand, if they've been living in Sweden for longer than a few months at most. Age is no excuse. You simply cannot exist in Sweden without it.

The proces was then to apply for permanent residence using the offered agreement between UK and EU, by logging in, filling out the form and attaching the requested documents as proof of residence, and also the required biometric registration.

Sure, it wasn't easy, but it is going to be even more difficult afterwards. Anyone who is entering Sweden (from outside EU) after this, will have to apply to the ordinary migration system which includes a test in both language and history of Sweden.

Raw images is where you go wrong. You need at least 10 mb of metadata tags to achieve professional levels of file sizes. How can you even look at a picture without having a full description of all your childhood memories that lead you to take this beautiful picture of yesterdays mac''n'cheese dinner. This is why we need more data centers.

Bloat. Nobody asked for else.

Does your car run on oil? You might want to have a mechanic check that.

The oil produced in America is not used for American gasoline.

It runs on tracks, so it might be slimmer on the ground level than the conventional construction vehicles. Sure a wheelbarrow is smaller, but I don't think that's a realistic option, lol.

One of the things that this project is testing is how the foundations are made. They do not have to clear the trees to dig and level out the area to fill in loads of gravel just to make a concrete pour. They are somehow able to make the foundations around existing structures like trees and on somewhat uneven ground.

It is over production.

If a manufacturer sells out the entire production, it means that they've missed potential sales. They could have produced and sold more, so that's what they're going to do for next season.

When a company has over production, they won't just drop the price to hand off the products. To some degree they do, in outlets and other off season sales that don't interfere with the main sale. But even then, there's a lower limit to how cheap they can sell it off without damaging their perceived price point. Wholesale buyers are not going to buy from a brand that can't keep a high enough price for the retailers to earn money on the markup. The price must be artificially kept up by not making the products available too cheap on the main market. The result is that some items just don't ever get sold out, only because the product has lost its resale value. That's over production.

Budgets go up, because the owners want more. If they had owners who were satisfied with making less money consistently, they could easily adjust their production to the demand and settle for that steady income. But they want more, so they will always attempt to sell more.

What EU is doing now is to force the manufacturers to pay for the damage of their overproduction. The solution for the companies to avoid this is to figure out their actual sales better and/or make on-demand production. On-demand production of textile is difficult, because even fast fashion has a pipeline of about a year, and they need to know well in advance how much textile they need to make the products. A solution to that is to forget about fast fashion and make products that are sold over several seasons instead, and by using more basic textiles in their designs instead of printed patterns that only have appeal for a very limited time.

The developing countries don't want our surplus, because it stops them from developing their own local production and markets.

Efter jeg skiftede til DuckDuckGo, så dukker siden skagenonline.dk op i næsten alle mine søgninger.

Forsiden viser rigtigt nok nyheder om lokale begivenheder i Skagen, men deres FAQ er tilsyneladende autogenereret AI slop, som skriver hvad som helst om lige præcist det du har søgt på.

F.eks. under deres sektion populære spørgsmål kan man finde guldkorn som:

Hvad er meningen med det her? Reklameindtægter eller hvad?

I recently got fed up with spending hours making my MIDI devices work in Windows. Everytime I plugged the USB hub with my controllers into Windows, it would reassign the ports and I'd have to use the ancient Korg utility to remove dead ports. This is a really old issue that Microsoft claims was fixed ten years ago, but never was. So I decided to test if Linux can handle MIDI devices better.

It seemed to work fine on an old Mint laptop that I have around, but since I'd rather use the newer laptop and since I still need Windows on that for work, I decided to try out putting everything on a USB stick for portability. Also, the old laptop which I might use sometimes is a bit too slow for Mint, so I needed something smaller.

So, the idea is to put the OS, the DAW, the plug-ins and samples on one single stick. I happened to have a 8gb USB that I found on a parking lot. It's kinda dirty and broken, so I figured it was perfect for the experiment. Yes, I do know that flash drives aren't good for this, and when I'm done playing around, I will probably get an external SSD for this purpose instead.

8gb is not a lot for this, but I like the challenge.

At first I wasted another evening trying to make Slax boot. I gave up and found Poppy Linux instead, since I do want the tiny and persistent kind of installation. It's a bit slow to boot into ram, but it's nice and quick once at the desktop.

For a DAW I got Reaper working just fine simply by extracting the files from the official webpage. No install required.

It recognized my MIDI devices and audio interface instantly. No issues at all, no missing dependencies or drivers or whatever, and better yet: It's still works after rebooting. I made a setup of the devices to control mixer actions in Reaper and that also saves fine as expected.

Now getting plugins is a bit of an issue. It seems that most people run Wine to use VSTs, but I decided to stick with free native Linux plugins and those are somewhat more difficult to find.

So far I've found Helm for a synth and LSP for a samples. I plan on recording real instruments mostly, so I only need the essential stuff.

I was pleasantly surprised that the linux download for LSP also ships with a bunch of effect plug-ins. Highly recommended: https://lsp-plug.in/index.php

I have yet to make any music other than test tracks, but it seems that my idea works so far. The installation is completely independent of which computer I have available, so I guess I will be using Linux in one way or the other to make music going forwards.

I get notifications on new messages that don't show in the inbox, and mark as read doesn't clear the message from unread.

Manually switching from all/unread seems to work and clears the read messages
