Norway's Labour government will implement a national ban on trade with companies that facilitate Israel's illegal occupation of Palestinian land. This comes as a result of the socialist left party's negotiations on a revised state budget, and continuing pressure from the norwegian confederation of trade unions (LO).

Norway's massive sovereign wealth fund has continually dragged its feet on the issue of excluding companies that facilitate and profit from the occupation of Palestine from the wealth fund's portfolio (such as it did with Russia in 2022), even though finance minister (and former NATO chief) Jens Stoltenberg has admitted under oath that he has the power to do so at any moment.

After collapsing their coalition government with the Centre party last week the floundering norwegian Labour party has formed a new government. Most notably is the addition of former prime minister/NATO ~~ghoul~~ chief and alledged lifelong CIA asset Jens Stoltenberg as the country's new minister of finance. He will no doubt be spending his tenure talking about how important it is to keep investing even more funds in domestic "ethical" arms and munitions manufacturing.

Had to "upgrade" our computers to win11 at work last month, everything runs worse and everybody agrees its utter garbage.

On the bright side this has helped me convince one of my coworkers to try Linux on their home computer. sicko-tux

Was thinking about posting about this when i saw your comment. My prediction is that we'll likely never know what happened to this guy and that this will just become one more of those removedadjacent things in norwegian postwar history that "just kinda happened"

Every day, once a day, take a dump on company time. Don’t plan it, don’t wait for it, just let it happen. It could be during a boring obligatory meeting, to avoid talking to your boss, or just to extend your lunch break by a few minutes.
