Vitamin D is added in Alpro soy milk and the Oatly oat milk that I drink in Sweden, along with vitamin B12 and calcium. It's all equal to the levels found in cow's milk. There are organic variants of the above that don't allo

I practiced qwerty touch typing in school, but never really used it myself, rather using two-three fingers on each hand and letting them move around a lot across the keyboard. I switched to dvorak over 10 years ago and since the letters on

Yeah, it's dark when you go to the office and it's dark when you leave for the day. Luckily I have a couple of colleagues that enjoy a brisk lunch walk, which at least gives some exposure to the sun during the day. In Sweden, a wi

When my daughter was young (in Sweden), this system was in effect, but was calculated per calendar year and not on the total number of days. We took around half the number of days each, but because we switched close to the new year, it look

Thank you for writing this comment, and especially the Buddha quote. I hadn't read that before, and it's very thought-provoking.

It's still misleading in Sweden, even though we're in the EU. Here it's called "frigående" (free-walking, or free-range) which for hens just means that they are not kept in small cages. The free-range version with a

I agree and disagree! I've seen the comments where the issue is nuanced, but I'll add some of mine. I play point-and-click video games remotely with a friend. We always try to stop our sessions when we have an idea of what we want

Your updated suggestion was my first thought as well. That way you could follow a train as it moves from one station to the next.

I really want it on the Switch! I played the emulated version on PC, and I know it's now available on both Steam (I heard that they fixed the broken early version) and mobile, but it would be very convenient to have it on the Switch. I

The first fiction that I remember really changed my outlook of life was The Eyes of the Dragon by Stephen King. It's a fantasy novel that I read as a young teenager. The king in the book has the head of a dragon mounted on his wall as

Same thing with Denmark. Their Ministry of Health said that closing the borders was a political decision and not based on public health. Sweden has stayed consistent with what experts have been saying. There's no use in closing the bor

There are a bunch of things that work in Sweden's favor in this case. Looking at Stockholm, hardest hit in Sweden, numbers from 2014 said that 45% of the people had moved there from elsewhere, and since then more and more people have m

Unless I misunderstand you, I solve this in MyFitnessPal by first creating a recipe with all ingredients, including water, then selecting the number of portions so that each portion is (close to) 100 grams. That way I can have 230 grams lat

It is possible to correct entries in MyFitnessPal, but not easily, as you say. I sometimes come across entries that are 100 times off, so someone (a user, or pulled from a database) has entered e.g. 600 kcal for 1 g when it should clearly b

Very good information! Me and my wife have grown stuff on the balcony, but the main reason that we don't anymore is that we go away for four weeks during the summer where there is the most need to water. We can grow things in the sprin
