Maybe none of you vikings anymore but I found this neat and comments from Scottland were funny. "I am Scottish and I felt this" Maybe you are viking and do not know. They dominated the land, may not have won in terms of land war...

Torunn @Starmaiden Technically, Greenland is an island autonomous territory so I wouldn't use the term "owned". That's for colonies, which it has been. I guess you could use the term owned til 1979 or 2008. However, that does not make it a part of Scandinavia, and...

Torunn @crossbones27 Rollo became Duke of Normandy some time after 900, you should find that if you read a fairly thrustworthy source :-) But as for the details, they will vary quite a lot. I imagine the written sources are scarce and of different quality, but they...

Torunn @crossbones27 King of France? You mean Duke of Normandy? Plenty of Viking kings, but not in France.

Torunn Denmark, Sweden and Norway. Finland and Greenland aren't Scandinavia :-) And not really Viking hometurf, although they settled on Greenland and lived there for quite some time. The Finns would have fought the Swedish Vikings I guess.

Summer is not my favorite season. I like the long days, but I dislike the heat, the humidity and cooking in the heat. This first day of September is nice and cool. I can start planning more interesting meals. To celebrate the...

Torunn @LadyDuck I share horse pictures on instagram. As I've told me phone not to trace me in any way, I did have to change some settings to be able to join it. The tracing is another reason I don't miss TikTok. The videos are too short and they would probably try...

Torunn @LadyDuck I some times send pictures while out and about, especially on holiday, but only with messenger. I've got instagram, but no snapchat or similar. And I haven't started using any of the video sharing social medias because what I see of those videos on...

Torunn @LadyDuck I am trying to not check the phone when going around, it's easy to get into the habit of having to check it all the time. It's very rare that I'm waiting for messages that I need to check at once. I mainly bring it along to take pictures, when I...

Torunn @LadyDuck The most important thing with the phone when I'm out and about is phone calls and normal messages. Messenger and some other apps to send messages are also useful, but I don't need 5G for them. And usually I can just find wi-fi somewhere, I don't need...

Torunn @LadyDuck The 5G discussions are really quite weird some times, most definilty not based on science. But I agree that most people don't need it, I suppose I would be happy with 2G or 3G. But I don't run around downloading videos etc, I really prefer sitting at...

Torunn @LadyDuck Seems like there is another battle going on, one without explositions. The EU want to put a maximum price on gas. Right now, we're their main supplier and the Norwegian government doesn't want a max price. I suppose that if they put the price too...

Torunn @LadyDuck They're complaining about us to. The gas is sold at market price, so right now, Norwegian gas costs a lot. But it's a bit annoying that the EU complains at market prices, it's "their" system. Change the system inside Europe then, that'd be fine. It...

Torunn @LadyDuck It would have good if middle Europe had some more windmill plants, so they (the Germans) didn't come here to build them. The government here don't seem to honour agreements on quite a few things, I assume they think "Money" and say yes to too much....

Torunn @LadyDuck Tonight electricity will have a negative price in northern Norway, Sweden and Finland. The hydro power plants are full and there's a pretty strong wind, so it's too much power. And the power lines going south can't carry that much, despite not being...

Torunn @LadyDuck They have stopped them now I think. At least there's no more talk about them, maybe because it's windy all over Europe so the electricity prices are really low. So low that today I think I should vacuum, wash clothes, cook, bake and take a very long...

Torunn @LadyDuck There are two leakages I think, it has lead to a huge metane cloud drifing over Scandinavia and out over the North Sea. Sabotage that leads to more climate gasses is not smart IMO, that's bad for both sides of the conflict. Do you pay for health...

Torunn @LadyDuck It's two quite big ones way deep down I think. It does make sense that someone did it, it's the wrong time for storms etc. and there are no big sea creatures around ('cause they've been hunted to extinction). Not sure if they can repair them, but the...

Torunn @LadyDuck Most of my proper cooking (which isn't a lot) is done in the oven. Maybe that's why I've never paid attention to what they're using in the cooking shows I used to see. I used to watch some from Australia and New Zealand, but I just remember when they...

Torunn @LadyDuck Of course, that makes sense from a physical point of view. The gas don't have an extra material to heat. I think some of those induction stoves are much faster than gas, at least for getting warm. I don't trust them for getting cold. My cousin had...

Torunn @LadyDuck Does it cook faster or slower? I think the water boiled faster when I had gas in Vienna, but it's 25 years ago, so I might not remember it correctly. That has been a problem for several countries I think. Might have been something like that going...

Torunn @LadyDuck I don't know anyone here that uses gas. I found it very puzzling when I lived in Austria, and very annoying when something didn't work. I had a week without warm water because of a broken gas valve of some sort, and I always had to read the manual...
