Some of the most specialized companies in Germany have their production in small unremarkable towns (that still have a huge Edeka or Lidl lol). If you want to stop the production of nuclear warheads, you cripple the factories that make high

He's more like a typical 4chan/Reddit troll. Meaning he cares about his comfy life even though he wants much more in life (even though he's got a lot already, but humans often overlook what they have and want more).

What, how? I got "hacked", I mean yeah it was a hack using an Android phone and Google's automated recovery system. If not for the latter, my incredibru strong password would've saved me. They also removed the phone and

F benzos, use Gabapentin, Pregabalin or GHB. Out of all of them, etizolam (yeah, I know, it's not an "official" benzo, but afaik it works similarly to alprazolam) was the hardest to quit while having meh effects.

You need to buy an EV certificate which is why many Devs complain SmartScreen made Windows Pay2Win. But you can pay for it by implementing malware in your newly whitelisted app :D

Postpaid was my favorite when I was a poor 16 year old. I couldn't believe you can rent 12 core servers for 3 months and not pay for it! Yes, I know it was illegal lol

Nothing beats "Stop using Mandrake, this is illegal software and we will get sued!" On that note, my sister can't wrap her head around the fact that people can have multiple bank accounts and many of them are completely free.

What Eastern Europe? Romania (pretty balanced and not reliant on gas) and Poland (mostly coal, locally mined) are self sufficient. Baltics maybe?

EU food is (was?) flooding markets all around it due to being cheaper and higher quality even after import taxes/customs duty. Should've bought local, but as someone from a poor country neighbouring the EU - fuck that, learn to

Yeah, so without trust this research would take a long time. First of all, you'd need to know what to learn, which is pretty hard. In this case that would be what? At least basic and some advanced understanding of human anatomy, metabo

That was my dream card for a long time. A Voodoo 2 (3D only, no 2D output, had to run through a second card, wow) overclocked to hell lasted me a good number of years until I upgraded to a GeForce MX 440 lol

Bad example imo, but your point still stands. A manager is someone who never does any work, therefore makes no mistakes, therefore gets promoted :)
