In this day trying to ban saying "your mind" is a fucking obvious way of trying to hide the truth.

Or well. Guess it always has been and everywhere.
Except in the west and in the US especially it has been allowed.

Sadly parts of Europe is quickly deteriorating on the grounds of just a small minor part of immigrants which an even smaller part of Muslim of which just a small part are fundamentalist extremists. .. but it's enough to negatively impact the whole society.

Someone already said there was no Wii U emulator.

Anyway considering I already buy lots of other games on sales and bundles I kinda feel considering the quality or what Nintendo releases those games deserve to be bought not pirated.

Guess one could argue the MSRP price but I guess it's optional to pick those games one think is worth it or not or maybe they could use some more competitive pricing (vs PC games.)

Better finish and content deserve higher price.

Ok. Personally I'm somewhat consider the US. Much more variation than any single European country can provide and I'm not fully a citizen of all of them of course.

Problem with Norway and Denmark is that I would give up Swedish citizenship there. They only allow one normally. I don't know how marriage work.

I don't know if that affect my pension for instance. Then again the social system may be superior in Norway anyway so maybe that's nothing to bother with. I would want to be able to vote in Sweden. Also I guess I always have the option to pick up a Swedish citizenship due to heritage.

One reason to ditch Swedish one would be more restrictive and lame freedom of speech laws and then I could express more freely with no issues. If you don't you'll have to follow the laws of both countries =P

Economic reforms in what direction? Free economy? Swedish economy is very free too. There's this retarded belief in that Sweden would be socialist but of course it's really not. It's more of a liberal well-fare state.

Currently in denial of both it's people and it's own soverignity / country and border and such. Which is a weird thing.

There has been this debate over a guy from the restricted immigration party who have said that the sameish / north Norway - Sweden - Finland - Russia nomad tribes isn't Swedes and how the jews wasn't other.

What he talk about is of course cultural identities and ethnicities. He believe in "Swedes", and he also believes in samish people. He don't deny they exist. He allow them to exist and say that here in Sweden they are a unique people with special rights and who don't have to become Swedish. Because they are a people minority within the country and special as such.

But people cry all over the place because of that and act like he wouldn't want to have them in Sweden or whatever because "they aren't Swedes."
But that's not what it is about.

It would be like accepting that the indians in the US may not want to be part of the US culture but be free to keep having their own.

It's a belief in ethnicity, cultural differences and people. Not denying it.

Imho if someone from Iceland or UK or even the US came to Sweden they could easily adopt because all countries run on the same basic fundation of reasoned laws and free individuals.

The problem with the people from the middle-east and Muslims especially is that their societies doesn't work as such and it's not what they are used to and some of them don't like having an open mind and not knowing how things is (whatever legal or physical) and find that a weird thing and want to have set rules which can't be bent.

But that's not how our societies work and they shouldn't either.

Some people go out and defend the Muslims and likely think they defend human rights but in at the same time they are supporting Islamists and fighting democracy, free ideas and equality.

I like how in the US the "hate against ethnicity group" (which sadly is even defined groups and I think it should be same human rights for all. To even try to split it up and make special rights for some is racist if anything. Also personally I don't give much care about what people say about some group they figure I belong to.. If people trash talk swedes, swedish democrats, vegans, nerds, whatever.. How much of a problem is that for me? If people insulted _ME_ I'd care.
I know the reason is that hate against whole groups of people obviously has led to ethnical cleansing and such but on the other hand if you don't want such to happen don't mix people of differerent opinions together in the first place!! It happens because people want stability societies of equal minds not constant struggle.
It's just stupid to ignore that.
In the US the Bill of Rights go beyond that.)

I have no idea how socialist Iceland is.
A guy in our boardgame group is studying to a .. doctor(?) here in Sweden. He's from Iceland / his mother is / something. They had moved to Stockholm or something.

Reinfeldt also talked about "Swedes with a 3-4 generation heritage" as the Swedes which would be more like typical swedes / have more rights / whatever. But the thing is that back then kinda no-one immigrated to Sweden. So most Swedes which isn't among the very new ones will very likely have heritage very long back.

I don't know how weather is in the Iceland.

Normally I haven't thought about it because Sweden is a beautiful country even though it's a little cold and say France and such is likely nicer.

Gotland may be ok too. More even temperature there too and the lowest amount of immigrants in Sweden (don't tell them!!!)
For some reason things are also cheap there even though one would assume things would cost more to get there (lower salaries? I don't know.)

Need to check some photos of Iceland.

How do the vote weighting happen?

Finland of course basically is Sweden too. They just don't know about it.

But they take in a lot less immigrants and I guess they have their own political idea so they may be more like "old Sweden" what do I know.

I don't know how much the shit will spread over Scandinavia. Since people can move and work everywhere.

Then again that's WORK. As in you need to provide for yourself for a few years to become a citizen. So the trash is still stuck in Sweden whereas only more useful people can migrate to the neighbour countries anyway.

SD I think is against EU forcing anyone to take in immigrants which likely is connected to their idea of soverign countries and self-rule but if the burder was split then it would of course mean drastic changes for Sweden since 22% of them ends up coming here.

(You need to provide for a family member you bring here but the number of such cases the last (?) year was in the 50s .. So yeah.. Like that happens. 35% of the Somalis have a job after 10 years. 85% of the Swedes work.)

As for the TV I don't know. Likely just an effect of communist TV. Just having 1 or 2 channels and that being what they sent. No choice.
You had more channels :)

To begin with the Gates quote never was.

But regardless, what he seem to suggest isn't that technology won't shrink and that you couldn't make more cores.

What he seem to suggest is that you're rather not use that to make more cores but rather make even better/bigger cores and caches.

No?

And maybe he's right. I mean. The Pentium IV was supposed to be able to go to 10 GHz!
We had a real mega-hertz race going on then. And then that stopped and we got more cores instead.
And maybe not people assume more cores is the future because that's what we've seen. But maybe he's right and it's hard to use that efficiently and that's not where we're going at all.

I don't know :)

But living there may be correct enough.
Where were you born?
I'm born and living in Sweden but they are fucking it up. Actually thought about Iceland but it seem to just have grass.. Guess it's colder too. Likely more "fun" in Sweden even with all the fucking immigrants and Muslim invasion :(. Wish it stopped.

We take in more than Germany.. More refugees than the USA..

I'm born 1979 and back in 6th grade I was told by a class-mate that I should definitely pick German as the third language because I would had a huge benefit from that.

Now really any so far. I can't read it good enough to play a board game in German anyway...

This would be 1991-1992.

Then again Germany was the worlds third largest economy and I live in Sweden just beside it .. So guess it may have more of a local influence =P

Still quite a big thing in Europe ;)
