  • Holy shit!! I won the birth lottery be being born in Norway, and I watch Last week tonight with John Oliver weekly, read the news about what’s happening around the world, to be informed, listen to Behind the Bastards, Lemmy, local news etc., so I feel pretty informed. However, 440% increase? And the other commentary who’s paid for 10 years with no decrease - what in the actual fuck???

    There are SO many property owners who could not keep their house with a 5% increase on their house loan (article from COVID years), and I remember reading about people going to the news complaining that they had to cancel one of their streaming services, and others who maybe had to sell ONE of their two cabins.

    450%‽‽‽‽‽‽‽‽‽‽‽ Why have people not revolted? How can you still be complacent? I’m so sorry to hear about this happening.















  • I used to work in a large oil company for a decade. Around 2018, everyone got new HP laptops with touch screen. We’re talking 20.000 permanent employees, and more than 40.000 externals (externals did not get a laptop). After a couple of weeks, people started complaining about the fan making a lot of noise.

    After HP checked the laptops, it turned out that the fan was not powerful enough. Their solution? Limit the CPU speed. And my company just agreed. Fuck that noise!!!

    I already started boicotting them in 2009, when i purchased a computer, which had an S-video. But it didn’t work. Went to the store that sold it, they told me to contact HP. I did, and they just told me that it was a error on the entire laptop series, and that I should’ve known about it before I purchased the laptop.

    Go fuck yourself, HP!
