Looking for people to play role playing games (like D&D)

11 Upvotes

I live here in Kuopio and have moved here from Sweden, so I dont know much Finnish yet unfortunately.
However I am interested in finding a group to play any type of RPG like D&D or anything else like that.
If any group is playing in English (or Swedish) or would be willing to do so if I join, then I would be more than happy to play with you.
I am a dad in the mid 40s, and while I dont think that age matters that much, I would prefer to play with grownups at least. ;)

I am interested in any tips I can get on how to find a group to join.

Kallis kuopuo

9 Upvotes

Kuopiossa näyttää olevan todella kallis vuokrataso vaikka asunnot on vanhoja ja asuinalueet masentavia.

Jynkkä on kaunista aluetta mutta neuvostoliiton aikaiset copy/paste kuutiot pilaavat koko Kuopion. Tämmöisestä 60-luvun kämpästä maksat helposti yli 700e. Vaikka venytät budjettia yli 800e et silti pääse kuutioita karkuun.

Olen asunut maaseudulla ja kaupungeissa ympäri suomea mutta Kuopio otti kyllä voiton. Tuntuu, että koko kaupungista ei löydy viihtyisää aluetta😅

Anteeksi avautuminen. Olen vain epätoivoinen.

Pitäskö subredditista bännätä nämä vitun nistivideot?

61 Upvotes

Aina kun subi tulee kotisivulla vastaan, videossa on joku 20-kiloinen nisti, joka joko huutaa vihaisesti ja kuvaa jotain (?) tai video, josta ei yksinkertaisesti saa mitään selvää. Nämä videot eivät liity Kuopioon mitenkään kuvauspaikkaa lukuun ottamatta.

Aattelin myydä mun Hp- koneen pois KPO alueella, koska itse en tarvitse juurikaan ja kuntokin on hyvä toimii kuin uusi.
Voit tarjota hintaa, mielellään 100 ylöspäin!
Pieniä käytönjälkiä ei kuitenkaan vaikuta käyttöön.

Mitä kaikkia opiskelijaetuja kannattaa hyödyntää kuopiossa ja myös yleisesti?

Viimeksi olen opiskellut vuosia sitten joten kaikki vinkit tervetulleita! Etenkin rahaa säästävät vinkit kuten kotivakuutus tms.

Kuntosalitarjousta opiskelijoille?

I just want to thank everyone whop supported my books The Horror Archives and The Horror Archives: Volume Two1 The Rosebud Bookstore completely sold out of Volume Two and had only 1 remaining of Volume 1. BUT I just went by there today and restocked. So now there are 3 of each volume back in Stock for anyone who still may be interested in picking up a copy or two!

Again thank you everyone for the support. Especially the support for a non-Finnish book. It means a lot to me! And I hope everyone who has purchased the book has enjoyed the stories.

Looking for place to rentfor the month of September

4 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I'm looking for a place to stay in Kuopio for the month of September and thought I'd ask here in case anyone can help.

I originally came to Kuopio for a 3-month internship and stayed in KUOPAS accommodation. My internship has now been extended by at least one more month, so I need somewhere to stay during September.

Unfortunately, because students are returning for the autumn semester, accommodation is very difficult to find. I've already tried KUOPAS (They rented out my place already and don't have any new openings), Vuokraovi, Niiralankulma, Tekma, and other rental listings, but I haven't had any luck so far. I've also requested to join the Vuokra-asunnot and Asunnot Kuopio Facebook groups, but I'm still waiting for my requests to be approved.

I'm hoping someone here might know of a spare room, studio, or apartment available just for September. Unfortunately, Airbnb is outside my budget.

A little about me:

  • 25-year-old male
  • Quiet, clean, and respectful
  • Non-smoker
  • No pets (but I'm happy to live with pets if you have any)

If you have a place available or know someone who does, I'd really appreciate it if you could send me a message.

Thank you!

Edit: I currently pay €280, but anything around this amount is fine by me

Looking for a friend

11 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I moved to Kuopio this June for an internship, and while the experience has been exciting, I’ve found myself feeling pretty lonely. I don’t really know anyone here much, and most of my days have just been work and going home. Also in my workplace I am the youngest guy and so never able to fit into their conversations. I am 23M btw

I’d love to make some friends or just meet new people to hang out with whether it’s grabbing a coffee, going for a walk around the lakes, checking out local events, or even just chatting. I’m open to pretty much anything that gets me out of my little bubble!

If anyone’s up for meeting with new people lets connect!

Thanks in advance!

Kuopio scam

Torilla ei ole hetkeen näkynyt mutta yleensä mamut jonkun lappusen kanssa ja yrittävät saada pientä lahjoitusta, esim doctors without borders tms. Kyseessä ei kuitenkaan oikea hyväntekeväisyys+ varastetaan. Samaa paskaa saksassa ja ranskassa

Where to develop film

2 Upvotes

Moiii! I’m moving to Kuopio next month for a year and was wondering if there were some nice (and hopefully not too expensive) film labs in Kuopio that could offer both 35mm and 120 film development and scans.
I’m asking because I saw there aren’t any Fotoyks stores in Kuopio, and my google searches only found some photo associations.
Thank you, have a great day!

Motorcycle/moped rental!

2 Upvotes

Hey all I’m visiting Kuopio and I’ve been looking all over to rent a motorcycle, dirt bike, moped or anything like that please if anyone’s interested in renting me their bike let me know I’ve been riding bikes for over 8 years and looking to tour around the town on one. I will obviously take very good care of it as if its my own. It’s just for myself a 22 year old guy I have my full motorcycle licence in Canada and it’s recognized here for up to 2 years I’m here until this Saturday. Or if there is anyone with a car who wants to drive me around I will pay gas that might be cool too but I love bikes mostly. Thanks!

Hey! I'm a reporter at The New York Times. I cover Finland. I'm seeing how bad the economy is -- especially for young people -- and I'm thinking of writing a story about how hard it is for qualified young people to get jobs right now. If you've been struggling with it, and if you'd be open to speaking with me about your search, I'd love to hear from you. I'm at [amelia.nierenberg@nytimes.com](mailto:amelia.nierenberg@nytimes.com).
