Small town boy by Paradise Lost. https://open.spotify.com/track/0jfNgP8sP2tnOloYDw0HoM?context=spotify%3Aalbum%3A1lvVqodR4aT3R8WemeIgDN

The original is iconic, and there are almost too many covers of it to take it in. But Paradise Lost takes it in a different direction.

Same as Wicked Game by HIM. https://open.spotify.com/track/5XenUjG7cRnTkUe8AVuuMX

According to Wikipedia it’s an English and Norwegian name

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbonegro

https://no.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turboneger

I’m sure you can call them whichever you want

I think they anglified it to Turbonegro. It can be the official name nowv and for a while… My bad inn that case 😄

Hmmmm Not exactly what you are asking about, but i love the energy of “Kickstart my heart” by Motley Crue and “Get it on” by Turboneger.

Both starts hard sang continues in the same fashion. I want more og that energy and rhythm.

“Stand up and shout” by Dio is close, but it feels tiny bit harder/faster.

Anybody got other songs in the same vibe/ energy. Not a slow build up. Just 1-2-3-4 rock!

If you think we actually invest in infrastructure, you are sorely mistaken… I mean yes, we have a decent charging infrastructure. Driven by Tesla purchase and gas stations following through in order to retain EV customers. So some infrastructure is needed to support that.

But we don’t even have good enough infrastructure to distribute an abundance of hydro electricity from North to the South, while at the same time we export electricity down to central Europe from the South, so prices fluctuates a crap ton.

Don’t get me started on train lines being neglected for the past 50 years. And as most countries we are realising that all our sewage and water lines need a massive renewal…

Maybe we should use more of the oil fund for these tasks, but I believe there would be large inflations if we tossed the oil fund around to fix everything…

I used to “love” running in to McD when I was in a hurry and ask “what burgers do you have that are ready?” and just take whatever was available. More often than not, it was a cheese/double cheese.

Now I have to wait 5-10 minutes before its ready, and its more expensive.

The trade off of cheap and fast vs quality have disappeared.

Reading this thread is like a waterfall of ignorance and shitshow.

I’m no expert on animal husbandry, and in particular elephant sanctuaries, but I have recently been to one.

That being said, I’m sure there are elephant sanctuaries that treat their elephants bad, just as there are good ones. I can’t say which percentage of the sanctuaries are good/bad and I doubt any of the posters here can enlighten us on that.

What I can say is that these are NOT wild elephants. I was told there are roughly 12k wild elephants in Thailand.

These elephants are bought from farmers that are unable to sustain/feed the elephant from the work they are being used. Apparently it’s not uncommon to earn 500 Baht (ca 15 USD) a day as a farmer, and that is not enough to buy the 10% of body weight in food for the elephant. Elephants are often inhereted as they cost around 1 mill Baht (2,5 for baby).

So… Domesticated elephants can’t survive alone in the wild as they have been bred out some of the skills to manage on their own. So a mismanaged elephant is better off being sold off to a sanctuary that can care for it until it dies. Which is the purpose of sanctuaries - put an elephant out to pasture.

The sanctuary I visited only had female elephants and was but interested in breeding elephants - because they are not in it to add more domesticated elephants, but rescue elephants that need help. I’m sure other sanctuaries manage male elephants, I can’t say how they deal with mating and pregnancies in regards to rescue other elephants in need Vs “free elephant” for tourist trap.

TL;DR Post in this thread acts like domesticated elephants are a wild animal like a boar. It’s more like a cow that weighs 4-6 tonnes. Death by cow occurs every year, you don’t go screaming about that when it happens between your bites of hamburger. It’s of course horrible for the family of the poor girl being killed. Hopefully humans and elephants will get the treatment they need and deserve.

Wtf? You think a rusty icepick is a valid response if someone calls you by wrong name and gender? Y’all need Jesus or some shit like that. Damn…

Huawei har really taken a nose dive. Good phones, but after the whole debacle, virtually nobody in Western world buys them

Well… It’s not “Norway has a map of murders”, but a newspaper in Norway has made a map of murders in Norway.

Dog racing is dogs running without a rider. I’m sure there have happened riderless horseracing before. I spot a fault in the logic!

This is probably not in the same categories as other experiences, buuuut the Guinness museum in Dublin the evening before st Patrick’s day was quite fun!

There’s a large bar at the top/end of the museum and a band was playing and 100 or so people ended up in a conga line.

I think I had 4 tasty Guinness during the museum tour sand countless at the museum bar😅

Maybe this explains further https://lemmy.world/comment/7822919

Exactly. It is potential debt and it goes against getting new loan/debt from banks. No matter if you have used the credit card or not. The banks look at the available limit on an your credit cards or available credit and view that as debt when they calculate how much they can loan you.

In Norway having loads of credit cards is negative for getting a house loan as it is potential debt that goes against your payment ability for the house loan.

Meaning we do have a credit score system for getting loans and more stuff on various credit solutions, but credit cards works against larger loans.

Which can be a pain in the ass when you want to buy a house/apartment and have credit cards that might deny you the last bit of money to win the bidding war…

There’s loads of comments mentioning this site https://metric-time.com/

Thats brukt beyond kiloseconds and into something else entirely

I’m sure the artist intended to be smart and use metric time as something silly.

The problem is he used regular time.

60 * 60 * 24=86400=>86.4 kseconds where k stands for 1000. Like kilo for 1000 grams. Kilometer for 1000 meters etc.

The comic doesn’t make sense…

Early termination fees are not that horrible. They can give you a monthly cost where some of the costs for installing it might be distributed over they contact period. Fine and ok

But i should still be able to cancel my contract without jumping through 11 loops and queues.

If you sign up for a given contract, that’s what you have agreed upon. It sucks if you only have one option and they can set a ridiculous price. So if you want to regulate pricing, that’s a different matter. Cancelling is something else altogether.

I hope it was a genious piece of code that was miles ahead of what it replaced.

And still it got rejected 😄
