It's already pretty much 100% fossil-free though, so it's more of a policy than a target. There is one oil plant that is used for emergencies or when neighbouring countries pay a lot to import.

"target".. it's basically already done. There is a backup oil plant that they turn on when the electricity prices in Europe are high enough that it's profitable to export from it (makes headlines when it does), and in em

Most don't. Most in the US might.

I don't think an infinite amount of monkeys with an infinite amount of time are guaranteed to write a work of Shakespeare. If they acted completely randomly it would be, but they don't. They're monkeys. They follow certain b

The point? There are no other ARM laptops that are even close to being competitive right now. I want a good fanless laptop. My only choice is Apple. Asahi made it possible and I now have a great experience. What's the problem?

Most people didn't say the M1 was overpriced. Most people said it was a good value for once. That's partly why it got so much attention. In this case, most people are saying this device is overpriced.

People say this about both Sweden and Iceland and it's not true for either of them.

Denmark doesn't have employer taxes, unlike the rest of Europe, making salaries look much larger.

Yeah Americans seem to have gotten the idea that nordic countries are completely homogenous for some reason. It's absurd how often I see them act like we can't compare our countries to the US because we apparently have no immigran

Adding to this, Sweden has no property tax or inheritance tax, unlike the US.

I live in another Nordic country that also has the same inflation rate as Iceland.

Absolute numbers tell me absolutely nothing. What matters is per capita. But if we're going to go by absolute numbers... Sweden had over 100-200k immigrants per year several years. That's over 1% of the population in just a year.

Food is not a huge expense though. I spend 150€ a month in Sweden. Even if it was twice as expensive in Iceland, it wouldn't be too bad. They have a very high disposable income. And things like heating and electricity are basically fre

Lack of immigration? Where did you get that from? Iceland had quite a high rate of immigration. In Sweden, 30% are either foreign born or have foreign born parents, with the largest immigrant group being from Asia.

Tell me what they pay for and why it's not worth it then.

It's not extreme. It's used to provide services for us. Denmarks taxes on cars are high even compared to other nordic countries, so I'm not sure why you're bringing that up. Most people don't even need a car there.

The inflation they're experiencing is not a sign of a collapsing economy. It's similar to other European countries right now. Also, 80k USD a year is a ton by European standards, so I'm not sure why you're using that as

Should be enough to run something like https://vecka.nu for two months even! (vecka = week, nu = now)

If you don't have money left over with a salary like that in Sweden, you are simply bad with money. You should be able to save 1-2k a month easily with a salary like that.

Yes. Sweden has a very high rate of single person households. A young person can usually live in their own apartment if they work full time. Probably not in the dead center of a big city, but nearby.

Western Europe has something called income equality, you should try it some time. Or well, more or it. A cashier in Sweden earns a very liveable wage, quite close to the average wage, while a programmer earns maybe 75% more than that, if no

Why is Sweden so happy then? Sweden has more foreign born people than the US
