Huoltovarikko Torniossa tai Haaparannassa voisi tosiaan olla hyvä idea! Tietty se on hirveän lähellä Oulua, jossa on jo iso varikko.

Oikeasti tämä toki olisi syy VR:lle lobata 1435 mm radan vetämistä Oulun varikolle asti. Parantaisi se VR:n asemia Ruotsin Lapin kilpailutuksissa varmaan ihan kivasti.

The Internet Archive rewrites people's home instances?! Wut?

Germans

Mehr als ein Fünftel der Einwohnern in der EU sprechen Deutsch als Muttersprache. Durchwegs zu erwarten also!

Jedoch sind gar nicht alle deutschsprachige Deutscher! Calling all German-speakers German is like calling all English-speakers American.

Liberal and Liberalist are two different terms, though. Very few liberalists are liberal.

If you support basic human rights, liberalism is diametrically opposed to your thinking. You can't have human rights if Nestlé is allowed to own all the ground water underneath your village.

Here's an article on where the Proton checkbox is in the Steam settings. Just now I'm playing CIV4 and I had completely forgotten to think that it probably doesn't work on Linux. Because it does now, absolutely fine :)

(The original FFVII doesn't, though. But that's the only Windows game I've encountered to not work!)

If you use Steam, there's an option in the settings to always enable using Proton to handle Windows games. Works very well! Many games work faster than on Windows, but sometimes there are minor bugs.

I find that vertical panels are inconvenient because text is horizontal so less text gets shown and font sizes get smaller.

Another solution is to simply switch to using the Mongolian script.

Kattoo ny...
Toi "Palveluntuottaja" on nimeltään VR.
Toisin sanoen: ministeri, jolla ei ole tältä alalta juuri mitään aiempaa osaamista, on törmännyt "byrokratian käppyröihin" VR:n kanssa keskustellessaan. Tarkoittaa, että VR yrittää vastarintaa, joka on ainakin jossain määrin toimivaa. VR:llä on tosi paljon vähemmän vaikutusvaltaa muihin puolueisiin kuin Vasemmistoliittoon ja SDP:hen, joten VR ei välttämättä saa tahtoaan läpi, mutta harmillista joutua lukemaan, että sitä vastarintaa on olemassa.

Hieman olin elätellyt toivoa, että nyt kun Venäjän suunta on pitkäaikaisesti kiinni, VR kokisi ihan omista lähtökohdistaan tarvetta aloitella länsi-integraatiota. Mut, eipä näköjään. Toivotaan, että ministeriö onnistuu pitämään pintansa!

Homosexuals are not against Uyghurs. If someone is against homosexuals, then fuck them. Regardless of where they are from.
If someone leaves because of seeing the Uyghur flag, then good riddance.
If someone leaves because of seeing the rainbow flag, then good riddance. If someone leaves because of seeing the Tiber flag, then good riddance.

It doesn't look like the instance suddenly lost any notable part of its active users. After all, there are very few assholes on this instance. And if some left now, all the easier for the moderators.

In any case, staying neutral in the face of human suffering is against what makes us human. If we did that, we wouldn't be full-fledged humans.

Ha, so Albania is authoritarian? And Kyrgyzstan? Or East Turkestan, actually?

Kyrgyzstan is known for having a strong democracy by the standards of Ex-USSR countries.
The Christians in Egypt or Lebanon are not really less authoritarian than the Muslims there.

But okay: You are telling that women in Albania and Kyrgyzstan have very limited rights compared to men. I would like you to give some examples of how that shows there, because that was not my impression in either country. I mean, yeah, women have worse rights than men, but is it worse in Albania than in, say, Armenia, which is the oldest Christian country on this planet.

BTW, currently the logo is the rainbow flag. Funny reading your comment complaining about it not being there when it actually is. Now. You are arguing that LGBT being banned in the Russia and Palestine means that Christianity and Islam are religions against LGBT. I would like you to elaborate on that view, please!

Where would you say the slippery slope is leading to?

Nää aikoo siis ilmeisesti käyttää jotain kaupungin ulkopuolella sijaitsevia asemia. Saa nähdä, miten toimii. Jos saavat hinnan olemaan paljon matalampi kuin kilpailijalla, niin toki sitten matkustus halvennee Eurostarillakin?

Missähän vaiheessa Chunnelin rakennuskustannukset on kuoletettu? Periaatteessahan siinä vaiheessa sen todella korkeiden käyttömaksujen pitäisi madaltua?
