I don't know how lemmy.ml has it configured, but at programming.dev every admin is notified by email when a report is made 1. By our users, 2. About our users and 3. On our communities. Pinging is less "intrusive" in that sense.

The racism. People will always be assholes, but I wonder if the fixation on skin tone will go away. You'd think it would lessen as western societies becomes more mixed.

Meh, it's no different than creating a report. I get an email for every report made on programming.dev, someone pinging the admins isn't/shouldn't be a big deal.

I really wonder if we will be able to move past this issue within my lifetime

I don't really follow the Greek Superleague, is it a significant rivalry?

Different angle

Norway is a sparsely populated and poorly defended country with a lot of natural resources and a long, often strategic, coastline. We're better off being allied to countries that share our ideals, in a union that has actually brought peace to the continent, than being gobbled up by some other superpower that believes in one or another variant of ethnic supremacy.

Eh, Russia could have taken parts of Norway back in the days if they wanted. It's clear they are more interested in the parts of Europe they consider "theirs". Their hostility towards us nowadays is likely because they view us an American army base. I'm not against NATO, but I think we would be mostly fine without it too.

NATO is to a large degree "USA with friends". An EU defence is looking more and more needed.

It's getting a bit off-topic but NATO without USA is still functional. The only serious threat in Europe would be from Russia, which can't even take on Ukraine. And again, it's far different from what EU is. USA deciding to ban X or enforce Y has no bearing on the other NATO members.

According to russian over at r/hardware GPUs have become cheaper in Russia since the ban as they are now being smuggled instead of imported via Europe with all extra cost that implies.

That was mistake on Google part if I remember correctly, it wasn't intentional.

They did not. We are in the EEC and Schengen, but not in the EU.

EØS is essentially the same as joining, just worse

Your anecdote is just that. The Finns and Swedes had a sudden change of heart about NATO after Putin invaded. Norwegians might similarly have a change of heart about NATO and the EU if NATO starts rotting at the head.

Why mix a defensive alliance with what is mutating into "United States of Europe", those are vastly different kind of deals. You're not giving up any serious form of autonomy by joining NATO.

There will be a draw to decide which branch the top 8 will be in. E.g. either Barcelona or Liverpool will be placed in the top bracket the other at the bottom.

Plenty of projects have exe files available on the release page though, it's just hard to find unless you're familiar with github.
