Most of the news in Norway as well orbits around Trump's tweets, we have had a break from Trump a few days now with some internal political "scandal"?..

There is currently an uproar in the Norwegian media about sexual harassment/harassment claims in politics, most heavily in the labour party. And seems to be bleeding somewhat over into the other major parties
The labour party now has the lowest approval rating ever.

Not as communist/socialists as Corbyn's Labour party no, but they are slowly getting there. Hence to the low approval rating..

I think what really lost the Norwegian labour party the election was that they were open to negotiate with another party called "Rødt"(red) which are far left communist/socialists..

I approve.

I can't find any global setting, so might have to set permission to each individual channel.

Just last year we finished a 100M dollar+ project to build control cabinets to Abu dhabi. For a giant oil rig.
This was in Norway..

For the company i worked for then yes.

I believe it was the first of 4 or 5 new rigs that began construction in 2012. With the lowering oil prices, It might be a problematic project in the near future..

Soo... Rip Kurds? #Afrin

The amount of propaganda and fake pictures being thrown from both the Kurds and the Turks are staggering.. Hard to say what exactly is going on other than airstrikes and artillery fire is hitting Afrin..

Did Trump break the alliance/backing of/with the Kurds? If not there is going to be an interesting dilemma, as Turkey is part of Nato attacking an US ally....

The Doomsday clock ticked to two minutes to midnight, again. https://thebulletin.org/sites/default/files/2018%20Doomsday%20Clock%20Statement.pdf

From reading the article most of their concerns are with nuclear war with North Korea, not as much as it was in 1953 with an actual "Doomsday" scenario. I don't think a conflict with NK will lead to a new world war or a "Doomsday", but will be catastrophic for the region. They also talk about the failures of demorascies to disinformation and misuse of information ..

I don't really care about the clock itself, i more like to read their reasoning behind it.. To agree or disagree with..

We where closer to all out nuclear war back in the 1950s, but we still have the threat of "local" nuclear war between two or a few nations.

There are alot of nukes out there..

I think life would change again if a modern 15 megaton warhead detonated over a city, considering that Hiroshima was 15 kilotons.. a firecracker in comparison...

huh..

I believe the news blamed the Dollar drop on the China solar cell forced taxation into the US, haven't looked into it much..

More like tariffs on solar panel import from china to protect US solar panel manufactures, is what i got from a quick googling..

Thats Trumps 2 million new jobs, Solar panel dust removers :p

Just millions of vacuum cleaner bots, until it turns out they are all Russian bots..

It would start with a few bots starting to beep the Internationale in 8 bit, then we have a full robot communist uprising on our hands. This is the real reason why the Doomsday clock is at two minutes.. We never saw it coming..

Question: Could it be possible/feasible for journalists/news outlets to start watermarking recordings with the date of recording, of events. I am sick of 10 year old footage being used as current events ..

Yes, it would make it more difficult to do misuse footage. But i see as technology gets even better it will be easier to change/remove..

IT HAS A DICK!

i've read that around 1500 were sentenced for hate speech in the UK last year, do we know what these case are about? Are anyone making an archive/database? I am guessing a lot of them will be held as silent as possible, as people don't want their name smeared etc..

" @WaelAlRussi " on twitter is the source apparently ..

Many dodgy sources claiming US/Israel missile strike.. Most from @WaelAlRussi 's unconfirmed local sources..

Only thing confirmed at this time, by the Syrian state is that it was an explosion in the Hama province..
