Thanks, had trouble finding a good English language source at the time I posted.

The king of Denmark is a former frogman (i.e. Danish Navy Seal). I would love to see that fight.

 

Dear Ambassador:

President Trump has asked that the following message, shared with Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre, be forwarded to your [named head of government/state]

“Dear Jonas: Considering your Country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize for having stopped 8 Wars PLUS, I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of Peace, although it will always be predominant, but can now think about what is good and proper for the United States of America. Denmark cannot protect that land from Russia or China, and why do they have a “right of ownership” anyway? There are no written documents, it’s only that a boat landed there hundreds of years ago, but we had boats landing there, also. I have done more for NATO than any other person since its founding, and now, NATO should do something for the United States. The World is not secure unless we have Complete and Total Control of Greenland. Thank you! President DJT”

The soc.dem. are not a left party anymore. The current government consists of three different center-right parties. And they have some weird priorities sometimes.

Yeah, Denmark is doing lots of stupid stuff wrt online privacy right now. But there is not some corrupt "let the big tech firm pay us off to not be affected" reason behind this, as the commenter suggested. More a protect the children and a "protect the children™" reasoning.

Nah, I doubt it. This is Denmark, not the US. But it means that it won't be like the UK, where all websites just IP ban people from there since the laws are too broad. Still a huge privacy nightmare though.

Apparently you have to either verify your profile using a government developed app, or the SoMe companies can introduce their own verification methods if they want. So yeah, presumably more surveillance with all Danish users having to verify. However it also says the law only targets specific SoMes with a verifiable bad effect on children - so it might not be a blanket ban but only affect the larger ones. No idea how that's gonna work out though.

Have you seen the com and post you are in?

What you have to realise is that according to them, half of Europe is a rounding error when it comes to discussing Europe specific problems.

My bad, fixed. Thanks for keeping me vigilant.

They don't have to be far west for sunset at 22 (with DST as I think you missed), just far enough north. With 6 hours of night in the summer, the centre of the timezone will have nighttime from 22 to 4.

How do you asexually assault someone. Is that when you make no sexual advances on your coworkers — against their will?
