The interview is pretty wild. The introduction the first 40 seconds is in Norwegian. He talks about how this interview is unprecedented and that he has never experienced anything like this (You will understand why).

The journalist is a respected renowned Norwegian journalist covering various wars and politics.

Highly recommended interview. Although a bit frustrating at times, as it was hard to get any straight answers.

Edit: I tested the link with a VPN and it should work from outside of Norway.

I am a Norwegian. Norway is a part of EFTA, but not the EU.

I am currently pro EU, but also fairly pro socialism, or at the very least pro social democracy.

I want Norway to have the security guarantees the EU offers, I want the same currency, I want Norway to be able to participate in changing EU, not just accepting something Brussels have decided without our participation (EFTA). And several other reasons.

We can currently veto implementing some decisions, but not too many.

If Norway joins the EU will it make it harder for Norway to transition to socialism/maintain social democracy?

I am looking for fun and political enamel pins, and haven't found any good european stores.

I was thinking of having some political ones and some fun ones on my backpack.

Showing my support for various causes.

No spoilers, just one of the best scenes in the show.

Many of the actors in the show play as bizzare versions of themselves. Patrick Stewart is one of the truly great ones.

I really appreciate the GrapheneOS security model with detailed permissions for every app, including internet access.

I'd like to have something similar to that on my main OS. I like to be able to install an app without trusting it. So that I can be more lax with the FOSS projects and the proprietary stuff I use.

I use my PC for gaming, programming and personal stuff. I have been using Fedora for quite some time.

I know that QubesOS exists, and would give me the highest security and privacy guarantees, but i'd prefer something more elegant. I havent tried Qubes in 10 years though 🤔

Am I limited to Flatpak with Flatseal and similar solutions to Flatseal for AppImage?

Edit: I have a ryzen iGPU and a seperate dedicated GPU

I really enjoy getting my view of the world challenged, preferably through chronicles and editorials about society, ethics, politics etc.

I consider myself to be open to new ideas and change. I do however have certain strongly held values, which are harder to change.

I know reading books from different authors could also accomplish the same thing. But I find that I rarely have the patience to follow one specific political point of view for an entire book.

I am interested in original ideas, or old ideas that are not mainstream. Pretty much most points of views.

I find that editorials and chronicles is a good way to grow and either enforce or weaken a belief.

Any good RSS feeds, newspapers etc. that focuses heavily on this?

"In an Oval Office meeting between the presidents of El Salvador and the United States, officials from both governments tried to say it was the other side who could determine if the wrongfully deported Kilmar Abrego Garcia would be returned to the US."

I also asked this on socialism and communism at lemmy.ml, but was advised to also ask on a non .ml community.

I watched this video, and it made me want to take a deep dive into socialism/communism, with as much objectivity as I can. https://youtu.be/BeRjTtKFlVM

I understand how capitalism works, and I have doubts that it is a sustainable system for society long term, but social democracy has been a good way of keeping capitalism in-check in Norway. So even if capitalism is not ideal, it is in theory possible to tax the rich more and keep the whole thing going in the future. I also understand the exploitation and the extraction of surplus value, rent seeking etc.

Other capitalist countries such as the US is currently struggling with basic human needs. And that is "the shining beacon of capitalism".

In Norway it has for a long time been common to use the US as an example of what not to do.

What I am interested in learning is how society would operate and function under socialism / communism. More about the differences. Preferably from less dry sources than The Capital from Marx. Where can I learn more? Preferably a bit entertaining.

It is important to me that it is historically accurate and factually correct.

Look forward to your replies 😊

Hi! I am a stranger on this instance, I have read a lot of warnings about the "tankie triad", but wanted to see for myself and keep an open mind.

I really like the convenience of using fingerprint unlock for lockscreen and password manager. I do however don't like the thought of being forced to unlock both physically.

I use Android with GrapheneOS.

I have set up lockdown, but it takes some time to hold the power button and then click lockdown.

Any creative solutions?

I have a lot of friends and family that use SMS/RCS and I can't get them all to use Signal.

I have the option to send SMS from a simple FOSS SMS app, and then we can communicate back and forth.

I've heard something about RCS getting E2EE and find that appealing.

What is the future of RCS? What are my options, and should I just stick with SMS?

Edit: Stick with SMS when I have to, and use Signal etc when possible ofc.
