Yeah, they don't do much in terms of tracking your listening habits and suggesting playlists based on similar users (which I personally did not enjoy much on Spotify, for me it always repeated itself and rarely hit the spot), but they have some great curated playlists and editorial material. :)
European legal systems are largely built around the idea that courts are apolitical, and that judges make their decisions neutrally based on the word of the law and the facts of the case.
This is of course impossible, but some people—especially judges themselves—are afraid that the system would collapse if the public learned how political the work of courts really is. So when France started publishing all the judgments of their courts to the public, they also forbade the public from studying individual judges.
Yeah, nothing against Uma Thurman. It just seems like the stereotype of what a market analyst would come up with if asked to make a movie poster.
Actors are professionals, I don't blame them for working for Netflix. It's not like it's worse than the Weinstein company. I just wish the production companies of streaming platforms weren't so goddamn soulless.
I think it has to do with activitypub, where Mbin follows the link, extracts some activitypub details from it, and then displays a link to the local version of the thread based on these details rather than showing the link itself. They also extract community icons and the user name of the OP.
It seems it might not work consistently 100% of the time, but when I've seen it it has been pretty useful, and it should at least be possible in theory. :)
A few weeks ago I finally emptied and cancelled my Dropbox in favour of a Nextcloud server.
The app works much better on Linux, it integrates wonderfully with all my devices (I already used it for contact lists and notes), and I save €50 per year that I can donate to open source projects instead of wasting it on Dropbox.
Super happy to see Nextcloud take the lead on other fields as well. My co-authors sometimes insist on word, and co-authoring via Word and LibreOffice in locally stored files as we are currently doing is a mess.
Of course, studying the performance of individual judges is criminalized in France, so we have very limited ability to know about their individual performance. :)
It's a huge lie that judges are neutral, but some argue it's a necessary lie.
Bislet Kebab is generally considered to be past its prime - I'm not sure I'd recommend it.
I'm usually happy with Mediterranean Grill in Torggata for my late night kebab needs, but it's a competitive scene and they are probably not the best any more. I've heard good things about King Falafel in Brugata lately.
Oslo is great for swimming. Sørenga by the Munch museum is really nice, and a swim next to the Opera can also make for a really nice experience. Bygdøy has great swimming spots a bit outside of the city, and this is also where you will find the viking ship museum. For a swim in the river, there's a great spot around Nydalen. The lakes (like Sognsvann) are a bit more outside the city and can be colder, but going up there and sleeping in a hammock by the water can be a great way to combine a nice experience with saving money on hotels. If it's cold, check out Oslo Badstueforening for really affordable floating saunas.
I guess in general what to do depends a lot on your interests. If you just want to walk around in the city a bit, Grünerløkka is known to be one of the nicer neighbourhoods.
I left a while ago, and since then both the Munch museum and the National Gallery have moved locations. People say both are pretty great, so if you're into art they're probably worth checking out. Astrup Fernley is more geared towards contemporary art, which is good if you enjoy the whole "is this art" debate and all that jazz.
Thanks - that's a super useful check list. I think I'll get some porous stones and re-pot. I'll also move it away from the window to a place with more indirect light, and try to collect some rainwater. :)
My watering schedule is a bit messy, I usually just feel the soil and water when it feels dry. I thought first it was underwatering, but then after cutting off leaves that all came out badly (and only growing worse) to let it re-grow we were being more careful to water it, and still they come out the same way.
The plant has been in this climate for over a year now, but this has been a problem only the last few months or so. So it seems to me to be something more going on than just the watering schedule - in the past under-watering would lead to old leaves dropping, but new leaves would mostly be fine.
