Many with ADHD struggles with eye contact. It’s too intense for more than a few seconds at the time.

Most gas stations in Norway have or is in the process of getting charging stations. The only thing that sucks big time is the payment process. With gas you present your card and then fill your tank. Easy. With chargers you have to download

I haven’t checked. They are barely sold anymore. In 2020 ca 95% of cars sold were automatic (or electric). You can still get manual used and probably cheaper than used automatic because no one wants manual anymore (except some petrol heads

You sound both like a wonderful human being and a very annoying one at the same time. But I like it. I salute you for keeping your people connected. Wish I had someone like you in my life.

Nice thing with EVs is that with regenerative breaking you barely use the brakes at all. When I hade mine in for regular service interval the mechanic told me to do some hard brakes from time to time to keep rust off the brakes!

FYI: almost everyone learning to drive in Norway now does so with automatic and as such get a license for automatic only. Guess the same will happen in the UK pretty quick.

Manual is niche in Norway now. The manual sale is close to zero. And you will have problems selling your old manual car. This shift started before EV’s took over the new car market. But it’s not that many years since manual were completely

The problem with frozen vegetables is that they very easily loose texture. If you fry them they will in practice boil instead of being fried. The only thing that works in my experience is to throw them in boiling water and then just let the

Haha. Yeah. I still only see the reverse chronological timeline. No advertisements and no algorithm screwing up my timeline. Thanks Tweetbot.

I think most electric crossings are fjord crossings, not island connections. Typically 2-6 kilometers.

Hurtigruten also have two exploration cruise ships that with hybrid propulsion. I think they mainly use the electric part when close to shore and in harbour.

My previous car had electric heating in the windshield. Took a minute or two to clear the ice. Still had to remove the snow though. Usually I started the car and then cleared snow starting at the roof and working down. When I came to the wi

I have heating in my driveway, it’s OK if it’s just a little bit of snow, but other than that it’s worse than useless. Most of the winter I keep it off and clear the snow with a good old fashioned flatbed shovel thing. Like this: https:&#x

Around a quarter of the ferry crossings in Norway are electrified. Usually there's one or two electric ferries and one diesel ferry. They charge while unloading and loading and during the night when there's fewer crossings. Before

Around a quarter of all ferry connections in Norway have been electrified. Often there's one electric and one regular diesel ferry operating in tandem. Bastø Electric is still the biggest one though.

Wonderful if everything is in Confluence though. Most companies have knowledge in various forms free floating through e-mail, sharepoint, sharefile, onedrive, teams, Onenote, wikis and so on.

As far as I understand Starship can only reach LEO and requires refueling from several refueling missions while in orbit for longer missions. Great if spacex is able to pull it off, but it is years if not decades until they get there.

They probably use some deep packet inspection on shore side firewall which blocks audio/video. Quite normal on congested satellite connections. Most “next-generation” firewall providers have predefined signatures for WhatsApp file tran

It does, sometimes, causing electricity price to go negative. This summer our local Hydro dam was full. But instead of generating electricity at full capacity they had to open the overflow valves because it was windy and the local wind farm

I’ve never been able to see them live, but did see Prophets of Rage at a small local venue a few years ago. That was pretty sick.

From an engineering standpoint traffic is really easy to fix. Just build more roads with as much “flow” as possible (tunnels). But it doesn’t work because traffic is a human problem, not a technical problem.

They had a tremendous effect on many young peoples politics at the time. At least on my politics. That is much more than most political bands by a wide margin. Anyway, I don’t really think music can have a big effect on politics per se, but

We solved this issue by having one ballot for each party. In the voting booth you pick your party of choice ballot, fold it and put it in the box.
