    • Corrupted had an incredible female singer some years ago

    Just off the top of my head, probably forgot a lot of great bands.

  • Sweden sees strongest support for joining the Euro in 15 years

    Jump

  • Thankfully this is a minority opinion and also mostly redundant, since most swedish people of working age speak and write English well enough for business purposes. There would be no benefit and a huge cultural heritage would be lost. Young swedish people need no extra motivation to learn english - they pick it up naturally from globalized media anyway, a lot faster than we can teach them.

    The way the world is heading, it would be better to make German, French and Spanish mandatory in school instead.

  • 3 out of 10 Swedes have avoided an American product and 4 out of 10 have considered doing so as a sign of a political statement.

    Jump

  • This is based on a survey, not Facebook group numbers. 70% of people questioned had either boycotted or considered boycotting US products during the past month.

  • RFK Jr. Reportedly Had a Call With Texans Helping Distribute Unproven Measles Remedies

    Jump

  • I'm convinced the best solution to this problem would be to rename vaccines to something completely different and brand it as a natural remedy that the establishment is fiercely against. "A natural therapy that strengthens and heals your immune system. Ancient asian medicine rediscovered. Witches were burned at the stake in mediaeval Europe for treating people with it."

  • Tim Walz says he and Harris were too ‘safe’ during 2024 presidential campaign

    Jump

  • I mean, I agree with you, but this is also a huge problem. This is why you have someone who pretended to be a successful businessman on TV as a president now. I really miss the days when boring but competent people could run a country.

  • I still like this meme

    Jump

  • Definitely. I've used macos for work for 10+ years now and never had an issue with updates. Windows updates on the other hand...

  • I am from a different millenia

    Jump

  • I remember listening to Nevermind for probably the first time while playing computer games. I thought the CD (new technology for me at the time) had broken and started chewing the disc like an old tape

  • And with locked grooves, metal machine music for instance has a loop on the innermost groove on side D so it can be played infinitely. There's also records with only loops made with locked grooves.

    One band pressed the sound of a C64 BASIC program onto vinyl that could be recorded onto tape and loaded with the c64 tape deck. All sorts of shenanigans.

  • Foreign Music

    Jump

  • I'm not a fan either, though in terms of musicianship and songwriting quality most of it is far above contemporary american pop. I completely understand why kids would prefer that to the endless "three chords and autotune without a hook" slop.

  • The United States is Falling Apart and the World is Taking Notice

    Jump

  • As someone watching from the outside, there's definitely a qualitative difference these past few weeks. It's very obvious there's no adults left in the room anymore.

  • Arab countries flatly reject Trump's Gaza takeover proposal

    Jump

  • Everybody I’ve spoken to

    It must be so rare that this man encounters an expert on anything these days, at least that is not in an adversarial position towards him.

  • Wall Street Journal mocks Trump supporters for calling tariffs 'genius power play'

    Jump

  • I assume your question was rhetorical, but these people have no fixed principles or commitment to truth. They don't want free trade for everyone, just no regulations for them.

  • Trump Kicks Aside Congress With Sweeping Claims of Presidential Power | With aggressive reading of Constitution, president aims to upend balance of power in Washington

    Jump

  • A weird little detail in all this madness is that "Doge" as in an italian renaissance leader is related to the word "Duce" so I guess "Il Doge" would fit Muskolini perfectly?

  • When RFK Jr. was presented with the science on vaccines he said needed to see, he dismissed it

    Jump

  • Yes, but they're great for propaganda. This administration can both place themselves in power and be anti-establishment at the same time.

  • Happy #GlobalSwitchDay

    Jump

  • Hey, wouldn't it be great if Signal still supported SMS?

  • Is lemmy's name holding it back?

    Jump

  • We could retcon it as named after the koopaling.

    As much as I love Motorhead, it's not a great name.
