Your lucky. For me it's a boring religious hymn that I heard when I was a kid. I have never been religious...

The original OP of the story, did return it anonymously. Sent it in from a different city.

Its a number, even early versions of google translate could do it. But otherwise copilot/chatgpt are vastly better with translating Finnish language than google translate ever was.

Sorry, my bad then. Here in Finland nearly every gum packet has the word Xylitol in bold letters, even if the brand is something totally different.

Xylitol is an artificial sweetener not a brand. Gums/candies sweetened with xylitol come in variety of different flavors. And unlike other sweeteners it actually helps in preventing dental cavities.

I had the same problem a few years back. But short on cash I eventually substituted my plasma tv to a samsung qled tv that was on sale. I was surprised how good/vibrant the new picture was compared to my old plasma tv.

"It should be noted however that using mixed metal alloys is much less effective than steel structures. Due to the effects of electrolytic degradation that occurs between different metals when placed in a salt water solution, items such as cars, helicopters, or airplanes will degrade and break apart in only a few short months."

I don't know why or how I remember this, but the music is from the end credits of 90's Zorro TV show.

There is actually no reason that this picture couldn't be from 80-90's. Would that make a difference? Probably still beautiful though.

Turkey has the 2nd largest army in NATO+controls a strategically far more important region. For NATO Turkey is more valuable than FIN/SWE.

Its like english/german/swedish combined and spoken with a hot potato in your mouth. Weirdly it's nearly understandable if you are drunk.

Considering how much an ink cartridge costs that amount would definitely be more expensive than all the money in the bank. ;)

and for clarification, we did not ever harass him or his newborn (it was a private beach). He just got accustomed of everyone feeding him.

When I was young I knew that I couldn't go swim at the local beach, without some bread-bribe to the local swan, or else... violence.

In Finland you need 2y of school + 1 y of job training to become a cop. IMO that's surprisingly low considering how demanding the job is.

That this trick actually works proves that printer companies are just scamming customers. >:(

Try putting black tape on the ink cartridge sensor. I've used this trick on 3 different printers, when out of a color.

Wolves consider hunting dogs as competition (usually they dont eat them). Wolves kill around 300-400 hunting dogs every year in Finland.

Although my reaction would probably be the same, hunters do take a knowing risk when they use hunting dogs here.

True. There has to be an investigation to stop/deter illegal hunting. This happened during a licensed moose-hunt though.

From injuries suffered in the wolf attack.

since wolves are classified as endangered in Finland. Most likely he will not get sentenced since he was protecting his property (dog). 3/3

He had to shoot at one the wolves to get the rest to back off. Both dog and wolf died. The hunter is being investigated for a hunting crime.

From a Finnish newspaper today: Hunters dog was being eaten alive by 3 wolves. Warning shot with a rifle didn't scare off the wolves. 1/3

Overheard at ikea. Mom to kid: "Oh, no this is an entrance only door, we have to go to the other end." It was a revolving door.
