Norwegian here:
Unmodified unpatched original Morrowind had this strange bug where a goblin (can’t remember where, but he was in a castle) would sell you 5000 gold for 5000 gold. He would reset every day so you could continue this indefinitely. Then if you killed him you could then loot him for the accumulated gold you had sold him. (Let say you had done this 365 days it would net you 1 825 000 gold)
The word gard still also means fence in Norwegian. Still in use i the words “Skigard” (using the original meaning of the word ski as wood split lengthwise) and “steingard”.
Also in the word “manngard” as a line of people moving forward when searching for something or someone.
It also means the word gård.
It’s Miklagard (old Norse name for the city)
"Gard"means wall/fence and is incidentally where you get gorod in Russian/Slavic languages I think.
I spent so many years in the army I am stil not really de-institutionalized. I made my bed every day as a student with bed spread as I didn’t want to dirty my bed clothes I’m case someone sat on the bed (small room). I still fold clothes for easy counting. I used to make my wife super angry when I complained about clutter “in the common rooms” as I always took my comic, book or whatever with me as I left the room.
Tbh I only ever got positive comments from the women I dated.
I was trained with the H&K G3 with a slide stock. It’s 7.62 and when I tried a 5.56 for the first time (a Swedish AK-5)I literally had to check to see if it did indeed shoot. There was no recoil from the 5.56. Never tried a M-16 apart from checking out the M-4 that the Rangers my squad was seconded to had (I was Norwegian Combat Engineer), no way that can kick to much.
Whats going to happen is what happened last time. Trump proposes tariffs on products from [industry]. Business leaders from said [industry] bends knee, kisses ring and ass, donates cash, and tariffs never materializes.
Didn’t these strikes take out weapons and military matriell left behind by the Syrian Army? Not a supporter of Israel or their war in a any way, but that region needs less missiles.
The expansion on Golan is again a Nethanayu atrocity
The more I learn, the better I understand Monthy Pythons song about how sweet it is to be an idot
Food doesn’t evolve in a vacuum. I love how cultures meeting also means developing music, traditions, music and food. Vietnamese is fusion of Asia and France. Viet-Cajun is vietnamese in the south of US. And then you get the marvelous vier-cajun-viet! British Indians developing the food.
Salmon sushi is Norwegian (ish) so different sauce on sushi…bring it on
How does that work? They still have to buy the power from someone, and those prices have increased. Or do they own their own power plant/turbine/whatever. Then they should sell the excess and subsidize their citizens.
I am normally a pedestrian and I fucking hate bikes as they are silent, fast and either used by 45+ old men that never got to do Tour de France or people with barley enough control to chew gum ans breath at the same time.
I think I like it because it’s a classic spy thriller with comedy. Some interesting characters portrayed by stellar performers. Jackson Lamb (Gary Oldman) and Diana Taverner (Kirsten Scott Thomas) are so good. And season four has a beautiful piece of slapstick where the self important River Cartwright (Jack Lowden) falla flat on his face in a moment of triumph
I have a 2 year old so what I find time to see is quite limited. Perhaps my opinion is a result of watching TV-shows adapted from books (Slow Horses), reality (Clarkson’s Farm) and crime/thrillers with a “monster of the week” structure, but with a slight narrative over a season (criminal minds)
I hardly watch movies anymore since I find the format limited compared to TV shows.
Last TV show - Slow Horses season 4
Last original movie in a movie theater was probably the Pokemon Movie.
Last movie in a movie theater was Dune part one. (Which for one was a hell of a good remake tbh)
Not even slightly offended. I have no issues with the trans community. Just pointed out the inconsistency in the use of WH40K related iconography. Would think a custodes (that now even have confirmed female members, much to the chagrin of the basement dwelling neck beards) would be a better choice.
I love the 40k setting, but I am also wary when it is used outside of that setting as it is really not a nice place, and often the people who idolizes it are not nice people.
Is the use of what looks like the Black Legion because they are trans humans? They are very much a danger to humans. Or is the Emperor here a symbol of intolerance.
Even tho’ I agree with the sentiment of the sticker… Tbh in a real life situation I will side with the Emperor every time as it in the lore is the only thing that stops my soul from being devoured by warp spawn when I die. Fuck traitor space Marines.
Biggest surprise: Final Fantasy tactics. Bought it for PSOne, PSP and Android.

Story: (though category to pick one) Deus Ex
Honorable mentions: Day of the Tentacle Minecraft Final Fantasy VII Diablo Mass Effect series Portal series Half Life series
That game is one of my saddest histories. As a bit to young to play it I bought it and found it immensely boring just slogging through the dungeon at the start. Didn’t understand the weapon system. Eventually after several tries I got into the city proper but couldn’t handle that first boss fight. Put it aside and never picked it back up again. Still have the game somewhere. No PSOne tho’
Stop, can only get so erect. Give me that please than the bullshit I have to wade trough today to find information. When is the store open. E-mailadress/phone. Like fuck if I want to engage
