I'm not familiar with the swiss health care system, but in Norway the government foots most of the bill for prescription drugs. The government is negotiating price with the manufacturer and as a big buyer they can get a fair price.

I'm a pretty relaxed cyclist. I ride more or less upright, but the forward momentum is precious. It's no problem to stop while walking, it takes no more energy to start walking than to continue walking. Same goes for driving a car

18 wheelers will drive to depot, cargo will be moved over to smaller self driving trucks and other delivery vehicles for the last mile. At least, that's the way it should be, even today without the automation. Huge trucks have no place

Cyclists, especially in a group should stay two or three abreast as it significantly reduces the passing length for overtaking cars. The only reason people complain about cyclists two abreast is that they want to overtake when it's not

Yes. For most people a good bike is a well maintained, comfortable bike with racks, fenders, chain guard and so on. For someone training for a triathlon a good bike is light, aggressive, a trillion gears etc.

Regarding ads: 45 minutes sounds crazy. At least in most of Europe the advertisements are programmed to end 10-15 minutes after scheduled time or the feature to start 10-20 minutes after scheduled time. depends on the cinemas agreement with

I don't excercise at all and usually get 10-12k steps. You should be able to integrate about 10k steps in your day to day life. Stop driving everywhere, walk while on the phone, walk the dog(if you have one).
