Assuming your country follows the path of Denmark (I think the western country with the least post per person) the situation will resolve itself: you'll stop getting letters for anything. I receive about 6 letters a year, though the av

Delivery companies in Europe have an initial status of something like "notification of package received", which should be followed by "package received from sender". I assume they do this to avoid complaints of slow deli

Visa charge a fee for processing chargebacks, and this will be a tiny fraction of Steam sales. I doubt it's their concern.

Denmark has seen a trend where their national card network (Dankort, operating at the equivalent level to Visa and Mastercard) is seeing reduced usage. They're aiming to reverse that trend. https://cphpost.dk/2025-06-28

I usually call it non-interactively: $ units 1500DKK USD * 236.76653 / 0.00422357 in which case it's always the first line I want. (The second line is telling me 1USD is 0.00422357 of 1500DKK.) Note if you use t

The article is by a tinkerer. It's not representative of normal use. The Prusa obviously has a self-calibration, I believe they introduced the idea a few years ago.

In several European countries they weren't doing the criminal record checks that taxi companies are required to do. I think that's what got them banned in London at some point.

In Britain we call it "engine braking", I think Americans say the same. A quick search says it heats the engine less than accelerating, so shouldn't cause overheating.

The main data for those pages is in a column store, so it can sustain many thousand RPS (at least). The problem is we have things like Disallow: /the-search-page Disallow: /some-statistics-pages in robots.txt, which is re

That's a pretty big assumption. The largest site I work on has 100,000s of pages, each in around 10 languages — that's already millions of pages. It generally works fine. Yesterday it served just under 1000 RPS over the day. AI cr

I think the period of the trains might go out of date, with a few exceptions — though it might return to fashion once it's beyond living memory. So a collection of model steam trains might lose value, as fewer people have remember them

Is there any trustworthy reporting on this? All it takes is for one chain to round prices down (1-2¢ isn't going to be an issue for them), advertise this, and gain many new customers.
