This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

No, unless you over 80
so will the guide be updated? or will you use alternatives? batertokens?
Do Swedes not have ATMs?
They just revert to raiding saxons for cash.
Out of curiosity, where did you get that it has only been issued 5 times? Wikipedia shows 8 editions (including 2024) but doesn't explicitly state if each edition was published more than once
Good thing I'm sitting nice and cozy in the US...
Considering trump wants to stop helping Ukraine and pull out of nato Finland and Sweden are up next for the russian war
Where has he said he wants to stop helping Ukraine? Haven't he been quite vocal about wanting to end the war?
yeah. stopping support helps end it, but in russia's favor
I can't believe the old cold war fears of a Russian invasion of Sweden are actually coming true. Thanks, America. Fucking hell.
I’m getting a bit of whiplash here.
The sentiment on Lemmy is usually that we should stop being the world police.
Personally, I think that would make for a worse outcome and I guess we’re gonna find out.
So in a crisis or a war, the guide to stop bleeding is 'apply pressure and call emergency services and wait'? If it's a fucking crisis or war you might not be able to have that luxury buddy. Honestly doesn't feel super helpful from what I'm seeing.
How to apply a simple pressure dressing is part of the basic medical training course, which is mandatory to get a driving licence in Germany.
Anything that such a dressing can't stop does require professional help and will kill you, crisis or not.
This isn’t a dressing, it’s literally saying to push down on the wound and hold yourself there until paramedics arrive.
That's the correct thing to do. If you neglect to do that and try to rush the person on to a car or something without proper pre-hospital care training, the person will just bleed out in the car. Whatever a pressure dressing won't help, won't be stopped without an operating room by a surgeon.
A person with a bleed will survive for much longer staying put with proper pressure over the wound than a person being moved about. Oftentimes, people in panic also forget to call for help. Most first aid preparation is about drilling people to stop panicking and actually call for those who can and know how to help. Crisis, War or not, you are, most likely, not a surgeon or a paramedic, and you don't have a surgery room in your house. There's that a pamphlet can correct in that case.
Look, while you're home reading the book you're not looting.
