I’ve had plenty of rants about Norwegian broadband (or lack thereof) over the past 25 years. It’s a bit of a long story, but the gist of it is that during the 90’s there was this one company (Telenor) which had practical monopoly on telecom (it was the private remnant of what used to be part of the government), and of course they didn’t want to develop broadband 8nfrastructure as the made shitloads of money by selling ISDN at the time. Broadband was available in the biggest cities only, and even there it was limited. And the punchline of that joke was that when I was on dialup I had to pay by the minute. During that time, hearing about not having to pay by the minute in the US sounded like paradise to me.
But luckily competition happened, and Telenor realized they had to allow modernization or be left out of the market entirely. Small communities could sign up to have broadband “delivered”, and once enough people had signed up for an ISP to considet it profitable, digging would start. Today, twenty years later, I’m pretty satisfied with how it turned out. I live practically in the middle of nowhere, in a tiny industrial town sqeezed to fit into the terrain, where three of the cardinal directions are blocked by mountains and the fourth being a fjord. And I have 1gbit both up and down.
Ouch, I was not aware of that. Here in scandinavialand we have a few local or regional ones in each area, plus a few big ones that cover the entire country.
Once the fiber is in the ground, “any” ISP can use them, regardless who buried it. I think it’s a remnant from 20ish years ago when the default was ADSL over copper, and the telecom cables were considered public infrastructure.
Yr.no has an API that is free. https://developer.yr.no/
Unless they’re willing to give you your own IP (dynamic, or maybe static for a fee), that’s a good reason for replacing your ISP imo.
After mostly playing BG3 lately, I’m now back to Factorio. I figured that since my angelbob mainbuss save passed 1GB, it was time to start something new, so I decided to give Space Exploration a go. I hope to have it completed by the time the space expansion for Factorio is released.

Or maybe, of all things Russia is running low on, North Korea is supporting them by supplying train loads of desperately needed tarps.
One word: reVanced
More words: No need to thank me. Thank the developers instead.
…and the capitol has been stormed, apparently
I had forgotten all about that game until your description made uneasy memories of those boss battles awaken.

That’s just media doing what they always do: overhype
Most chechens are muslims. Same reason why other muslims have beards.
I think the Luka news about hospitalization were true, though. I might be wrong, but IIRC, it was verified by several sources. Presumably he was in the hospital for “normal” reasons, and got better.
Oh no, I hope it’s nothing minor
Leaving the hospital with thousands of dollars gone is just US developers adding realism.
All of the Grand Theft Auto games have you respawn outside of a police station or a hospital.
I was thinking the same thing. Spanning tree is love. Spanning tree is life…when deployed correctly.
Alternatively I’m thinking noise, as I’ve seen that in 10gig connections a few times, which is why I prefer LC fiber where possible.
