Based on your answer I believe you are french and you never spent significant time in Germany to appreciate German efficiency. During my stay in Germany (6 years), I had to endure a strike on local public transportation every 6 months, comb

As nearly all airplane are now twin jet, you need to respect the ETOPS rating of your aircraft, which is the time the aircraft can fly with one engine down before landing. That's why the transatlantic or transpacific routes are not dir

The Scottish banknotes not being accepted in England was one of the most annoying things during my time in the UK (the most annoying being food quality). I really wondered how UK banks are supposed to be world leading entities.

I think it is that parents are expecting perfect kids like these are normalized product you can buy from factory. They are panicking when their kids deviate from their perceived norms, and seek medication to fix the "problem". ADH

Why there is no unit conversion with a flick of a button yet? It clearly looks that it has been translated from SI unit (e.g 1 bar or 14.7psi pressure at sea level)

I think it is more vicious than this, as a powerful person, you want your children to continue in the same sphere. Except that children are not necessarily as good as you. So you create a system where powerful people can put their children

I doubt so, farmers in my village in France never take their cows out of the barn. They feed them with dry grass and fermented corn (ensilage) they grow. Cow grazing is a thing of the past unless you do milk for AOP cheese or premium meat.

So you state rightfully that Parisian suppressed regional language (my grandmother and father were not allowed to speak alsatian at school), but you are using it to support the use of English? Why should we make amends to English? Why not r

I think that French language going down the drain is due to English words being used instead of perfectly valid french equivalent. People use English word to sound snobbish and smart, knowing that older people do not master English. So I su

Except that it is next to impossible to stop a fully charged battery fire. The most efficient way is to throw the vehicle in a pool of water. But even if you manage this feat, the battery can catch fire again once remove from water.

From a French perspective, the fight over nuclear green taxonomy did not went well here. And now that they suck Putin's d** I start wondering if Germany is an ally, or a foreign agent leech.

A plane doesn't have to build and maintain km of tracks, it just uses airport facilities (subsidised usually) and untaxed kerosene. A high speed train can only go to a few destination, the tracks can hardly be repaid

The sad truth is that Putin can only be removed from within Russia, by Russians. We cannot attack Russia without risking nuclear war, so imposing hardship to every russians is the best move we have. The guy is mad and made a bad strategic m

Yeah right. They drilled in Strasbourg, France, to get this "free" energy. When they entered production, the city was experiencing an earthquake every month, waking the city at night. After a magnitude 4 earthquake, they finally s

Why dismiss the proposal based on how companies can avoid it? I like this proposal because it is a step towards transparency. It is not perfect, as any law, but the small steps are compounding over time.
