  • If you are just going to reject one of the biggest driving forces of human beings, then you don’t want a serious discussion.

    Greed is absolutely part of it, people want to maximize their gains, be it money, health, security or resources.


    But since you don’t accept that answer, what is your explanation for a refugee that keeps walking through safe country after safe country before finally finding the specific country they accept?

    Why should refugees get to pick and choose a specific EU country to live in?

    Why would legitimate refugees’s discard their papers?




  • Swede here, absolutely not, around 2015 or so we got hit by the mass migration wave, there were plenty of documented cases of migrants throwing away or destroying their documents to try and claim refugee status when they clearly didn’t need it, thus taking spots from actual refugees.

    There were also real refugees who did this, they registered in Greece, Spain, Italy or other southern Europe country, but then they kept going north, trying to get to a better country. At that point you are no longer a refugee, but an economic migrant.

    I 100% oppose these migrants.

    The dumb thing is that the EU would distribute refugees throughout the union, just because you registered in Spain, didn’t mean you had to stay there, you would stay for an interim period and be distributed to your proper host country.

    I have zero issues with migrants/refugees who come the legal route, learn the language, work, and integrate in the culture.


  • It is especially toxic when it comes to crying, I am man enough yo cry when I need to, that is what I will say to the “men shouldn’t cry” crowd.

    Crying is extremely helpful to clear you mind, get rid of excess emotional energy, and refocus on the task at hand.

    Back in 2022 or so I suffered dual flat feet, dual heel spurs and a bad knee at the same time, I cried openly while dragging myself home from the bus from work every single workday, the crying released tension and energy locked into controlling my emotions, and made it easier to walk, I also blasted Sabaton in my headphones to give me even more energy. And I managed to get home easier than if I had to put the energy to use focising on not crying despite the agony of every step I took.

  • This is due to a simple mental hang up people have.

    They want to blame/punish someone for the failure.

    In an open source project, there isn’t really any one you can fine, GPL clearly states that the software is provided without warranty.

    If you hire a company to make a program for you, you pay them to not only build the program for you, but to also accept liability for errors.

    And that is often far more important to management than if the code is open





  • Ok so restaurants.

    As far as I know the fanciest restaurant in Stockholm is Frantzén, it has three Michelin stars and a normal price for a meal is a few thousand euros if I understand properly.


    For a more budget friendly option you could look into these places:

    Stockholm Fisk - an excellent fish restaurant in the center of Stockholm.

    East - a nice asian restaurant.

    Meatballs for the people - a restaurant specializing in meatballs.


    Too be perfectly honest, I hardly ever go out and eat on restaurants, so I am not super quallified to answer your question, but I will share my best restaurant experience.

    It was a dinner cruise on the classic steam boat S/S Norrskär in a beautiful summers evening back in 2016.

    The boat is lovely, the views are fantastic, the atmosphere is amazing and the food was great.

    Just sitting in a restaurant on a classic steamboat cruising the smooth waters of the Stockholm archipelago as the sun shines brightly from a low angle while you are eating a classic steamboat steak is awesome.

    I will never forget that evening, just perfect.
