I have to say having used Ryanair a couple of times in the last year - it’s not all that bad. In fact I’d say the booking experience and UX of the site is a lot better than many of their competitors. As long as you pay attention and read th

In English there is at least the means grammatically to express you're referring to the future (I'm going to the store, I will go to the store, I'm going to go to the store). In Finnish, it's entirely contextual and you

> Learn only 4 tenses. Past for one time events, past continuous, present, future. These are enough to go by and explain yourself. There is no future tense in Finnish. Or gendered personal pronouns. Oh and there’s about a gazillion words

A lot of the news around this topic seems to suggest this is as a consequence of cost-savings - on what is already an incredibly expensive vehicle. I think most people buying these trucks are probably not worrying too much about cost in the

Ketosis is an interesting topic. There's also emerging research suggesting that it can play a role in the development of cysts for those who have APKD (Polycystic kidney disease). [1] [1] https://www.cell.com/cell-repor

Many immunosuppressed patients will disagree. Viruses hit harder and can often require antibiotics (not a good idea long term). And Covid/Flu/Noro is a constant risk to immunosuppressed people. Source: son of a transplant patient.

This will be game-changing if it works for the Nordics. Here in Finland, ticks are an ongoing nuisance carrying lyme and also TBE (which can be vaccinated against). They are almost unavoidable if you go into nature during the warmer months

Don't think I've ever seen Synology on sale in Finland in the last 15 years. I have been looking fairly regularly on amazon.de too.

Sales. This must be an American thing. Have never seen any decent discounts on them here in Europe.

It's 2023 and my credit card is left wide open to fraud and booking.com facilitates this. I presume when you choose "pay at the hotel" and have to enter your full details including CVC, this is in order for the hotel to charg

I have never paid a penny to Twitch, nor been given a gifted sub. So it's no that :) I know for sure my country has ads, as occasionally I load twitch app on my phone and it's unbearable.
