Bike commuting kind of rules though.

…blurt in ‘all caps’?

Strength training helps, a lot.

‘Fart’ does refer to speed occasionally, but the key here is that it’s always called ‘Hastighetskontroll’ in Swedish. Note the double ‘L’ in ‘kontroll’ and the compounding of ‘hastighet’ and ‘kontroll’.

This is either Norwegian or Danish.

It’s true that ‘fart’ means speed in Swedish, but in this context ‘hastighet’ would be used (~‘hastiness’).

I really don’t see what’s insane about that to be quite honest

Residential wind for electricity generation is not really recommendable afaik, but it could be viable for some amount of heat generation, potentially: https://solar.lowtechmagazine.com/2019/02/heat-your-house-with-a-mechanical-windmill/

They are unironically attempting to murder us with cringe

Blackout curtains are mandatory equipment for any Swedish bedroom, in my opinion. There’s no way to get enough sleep without them. Sleep masks also help if you’re particularly sensitive to light.

AC is generally speaking not required, as nights are cool and letting in air can provide adequate cooling for all but the hottest days of the year. This is of course a problem for people like me who are allergic to grass pollen, which is active during summer, but I’ve been able to get by mostly with a fan these days.

But don’t tell anyone because we don’t want more people moving here!

You need to build more housing so that more people can enjoy it, but more significantly so that the people already there can afford it.

I’ve been told it’s positively Mediterranean this year though, is that right?

Well, it begins with too warm for comfort here, and then it gets progressively worse.

Winter is quite nice when there is snow. We don’t get that in Stockholm, for the most part.

Depends on where you are. Miserable in hotter places I’m sure, but in Sweden it’s quite honestly glorious. Sun up from 03:30 to 22 in Stockholm, and it never quite gets dark. Does wonders for your mood.

Winter, however, is a cold, dark and wet mess. Truly depressive.

Spring and autumn are alright, but suffer from just a little bit too much rain.

Naturally, the climate crisis is making things slightly too warm for comfort now, and we’re going to have to retrofit all homes to withstand heat better before too long.

Oh shit, my bad. Yeah, hard agree there

Additionally, the platform being owned by an outright Nazi should give even the most out of touch people pause.

How is Daniel Ek a nazi? That’s a wild take if I’ve ever heard one.

I use Rectangle whenever I need to do some tiling go decent effect.

I’d rather see a train, but this is still better than nothing
