Nope, I have been using Notesnook for nearly three years for notes.

 

Aloin juuri miettiä, kuinka mones kerta tämä on vuosikymmenen sisään kun Nokia potkii porukkaa pihalle.

Democrats need new blood and a reboot. They are idiots if they think being successful means meeting Trump and Republicans at the middle.

Finished the main story of Enderal. Impressive for a total conversion Skyrim mod, I wish there were more like this! Feels like I may touch this game again after five years or so.

This reminds me of a straight pride event titled "Hetero Pride" that was organized in Finland way back in 2013. One of the organizers was a deputy regional councillor and Finns Party member. He claimed how society and the media over-emphasized homosexuality, calling it "homozation". He also claimed how it was hard to defend the traditional family model without being labelled homophobic and racist.

The event was held near the Parliament House in Helsinki. There were whole a lot more counter-protesters and some came to the event mainly because it was more like "popcorn pride". One of the speakers at the event literally said in his speech how "we don't have anything against homosexuals, but..." and another said something about how "the Bible states that marriage is only between a man and a woman". One speaker was later asked about "what privileges do gays have these days", and he just replied "I have to be honest, I can't say anything about that".

"The tiger can't change its stripes." The organizer mentioned later posed in a picture with five other men who made a Nazi salute – one of them was Seppo Lehto, an infamous Neo-Nazi. He also made a Nazi salute himself in another picture, this time wearing a Hitler mask. When called out, he said "I'm not in that picture. I wasn't there. I don't know where these kinds of clips came from." He later admitted being in the picture, claiming how he hadn't made a Nazi salute: "It's just a normal salute with the left hand. The official Nazi salute is with the right hand at a 45 degree angle."

The explanation wasn't enough for the Finns Party, and as a consequence he was fired from the party's regional council because of homophobia. Later he also resigned from the party.

Really bugs me how Finland's public sector is so addicted to Microsoft's products. The vast majority of money in public IT procurements goes to Microsoft's product licenses alone, over a billion euros! Really makes me wonder why Finland can't do what Denmark can.

Lippujen hintojen noususta huolimatta Tuskan kävijämäärät näyttävät nousseen viime vuosina. Hinnat ovat kuitenkin sen verta korkeat eikä omaan taloudelliseen tilanteeseen muutenkaan mahdu festareilla käynti. Ehkä harkitsen vielä muutaman vuoden kuluttua uudestaan. Tuskan toimitusjohtajakaan ei Kaaoszinen haastattelussa sanonut mitään lippujen hinnoista.
