  1. Of course! Agz is a finner!

     

    Yeah was going to ask have you noticed any resentment to the european union, because in the UK (England) it is massively disliked. A party called UKIP are seriously challenging the establishment, everyone is turning right wing!

    Have you noticed any mass immigration in to areas that were populated by your natural fins?

     

    Right now London and birmingham are shadows of the cities they used to be.

    My home town is slowly being invaded.

    For instance local houses were given to local people, now they bump immigrants to the front of the line, its not good.

    Liberal lefties are going to destroy this country!

     

    There's always resentment towards the EU in some circles, like the True Finns party that was all over the news some time ago. Generally speaking, the younger generation is more accepting towards the EU. The talk is not so much about EU these days, but rather should Finland join NATO. That's the true minefield right there. We're stll too wary of Russia.

     

    As far as the immigrant issue goes, I don't personally see it as a problem (yet), but certain areas of Helsinki have started to profile themselves as "immigrant areas". This I find very problematic, because it leads to true segregation within the city itself, and leads to issues that are already prevalent in other countries. Like Sweden for example.

    The people that are against immigrants, are not so much against immigration as a whole, but against certain ethnicities, like the romani and somali people.

  2. I'm not exactly backing any party, because it looks to me like the biggest parties just can't seem to agree on anything. If they do agree on something, they still can get a fight out of the small details.

    Well, financially, Finland is doing fairly well. We're just getting tired of having to bail out countries in southern Europe.

  3.  

    Why the hell would anyone use Firefox 3.6 nowadays?

    Because I'm still running Windows 2000 on 0.5GHz Celeron?

     

    Later versions of Firefox will install and run, but they are so bloated the entire machine almost freezes.

     

    Chrome won't install, although I've heard that it will work if you hack the installer.

     

    I have an old version of Opera installed, but it can't even display the Google logo properly.

     

    And, of course, the infamous IE6, which is much less supported than FF 3.6 is, and has major problems with many sites.

    Ok, fair enough.

     

    ...

     

    But why such an ancient piece of hardware?

  4. Got my hands on the game some time a go and desperately trying to make progress in it. The first boss was... a wake-up call to say the least. The game has since nailed my balls to the wall several times since.

     

    The most frustrating thing has to be that you're never quite sure if you've accidentally traveled to a place where the opposition mercilessly wipes the floor with you from the get-go (as in, 1 or 2-hit KO). I don't even want to get started on enemies that use status effects which you aren't equipped to deal with.

  5. Anyone here have any idea on how to work with a print server (adding a printer with correct settings, mostly) under Windows 7?

     

    I have this ZyXel VDSL wireless router with printer server functionality, and an old HP LaserJet 1080 printer with USB connectivity. I usually use the printer by just connecting it directly to my laptop, but I've run into a, let's say, logistics problem, so accessing the printer wirelessly using the aforementioned print server would be so sweet.

     

    But alas, no matter how much a scourge the Internet, no amount of tutorials have helped me so far. So any help from you guys?

     

    Yes, ZyXel's User Guide is fucking useless in this matter.
