If you double clicked on a file it would load the associated application and open the file. The only reason I can think of is to not disrupt the user's flow by opening a window on top of the Filer windows. Maybe they intend to open mul

A simple day and night tariff was introduced at some point in the 1980s in the UK. Most places I lived had this set up. (Nowadays smart meters offer many more options.)

I can't find videos. The cabin crew stand at the front of the plane, and either play a recording or make an announcement saying you can buy a lottery scratchcard for €2 or whatever, with some of the money going to charity. They then wa

I've never seen these in Europe. I suspect they are incompatible with the much stricter pedestrian safety rules. In Copenhagen if someone needs a bike at both ends of their journey (not very common) they might own two, and leave one at

Actually taking a bike on the Copenhagen metro is rare, in my experience, except very late at night when it's empty anyway. It is almost as annoying to others as taking a bike on a bus.

The semi-official policy of my employer in Denmark is you can watch porn on a work computer, so long as you're paying for it. (This reduces the risk of malware etc.) I say semi-official because someone asked the question at a Q&A t

They were 19 and 25. It doesn't seem that crazy that there would be very little space. Visiting parents and/or grandparents probably got the bedroom, some friends the living room.
