Why European Clocks are Running Slow, and UK Clocks Aren't

Zawash says...

Here in Norway we run synchronously together with Sweden and Finland, but not together with the rest of Europe. So, we're fine too.

Side note: Currently at work trying to fix a clusterf**k of servers with a proprietary time synch solution not working properly...

It's that time of year again.

Why We Constantly Avoid Talking About Gun Control

ChaosEngine says...

So if we can't prevent 100% of shootings, we should do nothing?

Also, bobbies with sticks works just fine in Ireland, New Zealand, the UK, Norway, Iceland.

I don't know where you live, but you can hire or steal a truck pretty easily here in Australia (one of the most heavily regulated countries in the world). And our regulations haven't stopped recent idiots mowing down people with cars on purpose (Melbourne!!!). They're thinking of putting bollards in place in strategic locations - because you can't regulate away what we don't want happening.

Yes, some things kill at lower rates than the examples but I had to end somewhere.

Vehicle ownership is not essential. You can have public transport service everyone just fine (e.g. Singapore). Of course, some people argue that what is good for Singapore may not be suitable for themselves (i.e. it is essential in my scenario because I say it is). And you can extend that same argument to firearms (that they are essential in someone else's scenario). Firearms have a measured economic benefit, protection benefit, health benefit (active outdoor sports), military benefit, etc.

Modern civilisation works fine (I'd argue it works better) without private vehicles. Try having a civilisation without firearms - you'll have to have awfully large mobs of bobbies armed with nothing but sticks. Good luck with that

He is one of Norways best comedians, actually, but almost all of his material is in Norwegian, however, there is one sketch which is at least partially english

Extremely interesting, and as @eric3579 pointed out, the guy has a really fun sense of humor as well. I loved how by the end, he got a big laugh out of the watermarked stock image without even having to comment on it.

Nice plan - utilize the parts of American capitalism that work = find oil.

The ideals of a social democracy to create a better future = high taxes, high prices, social spending for loyal norwegians, strict moral and legal rules. Make sure to make up lots of first world problems to compensate for the awesomness.

Sell oil, buy Teslas. Have lots of mountains + rain to power Teslas.

Plus you have to already be rich to even contemplate visiting Norway, nevermind somehow get rich easy there. Tip on how to get rich in Norway? Be a tunnel builder.

Free education may mean more social mobility but it also creates a truckload of sociologists.

I like Finland. Its flat and no oil, but almost as successful. How are they doing it?

Interesting to see this in unison with the other video on the Top 15 - "Why Norway is full of Teslas". It's like they utilize the parts of American capitalism that work with the ideals of a social democracy (which obviously work much better than anything we have going on in the States) to create a better future - one hopefully without oil & gas and use tech to solve those issues but for now using oil money to get there.
