The dock for the original Surface Go was garbage. You were always better off getting the USB-C hub.

Agree with the other reply 100%. If you payed for the upgraded Surface Go, it works excellently, and runs pretty well when you break out of Windows S mode. I use it for travel and more portable uses. I specifically use it to read via screen

Americans can actually get "passport card" which functions like the EU national identity cards, within the United States. It is intended for use within the United States, as ID laws are changing. However, the RFID chip in the US p

A lot of EU countries are not issuing standard/typical/normal visas at all. You can most likely forget getting a student visa altogether. At this point, you cannot even legally enter the EU (Schengen zone + more) without being an

Some countries like Germany (which generally costs 500 Euro/semester, except in 1 state) give you an 18(?) month visa post-graduation to allow you to get a job in Germany. This particular visa actually puts you on the same hiring level

It does attract bacteria plus other pathogens, plus makes them hard to remove. For example, in the 90s, roll tape (versus now: single use sterile IV tape) was sometimes used to secure IV lines. Here is a study on IV lines (not central lines

Thank you for acknowledging this. I really appreciate it. The issue is that the adhesive from tape is a form of glue. It attracts and keeps hold of germs. Plus, it is extremely hard to get fully off in terms of disinfection purposes. I had
