Absolutely, yes. Because if I'm searching about "free speech" I will be looking for information about how it's limited, aka: censorship.

Yes it was. The concept of gun rights cannot exist without the concept of gun control, it's quite literally the same theme. Gun control is what defines which gun rights people have.

I'm guessing... Austria? They only accept specifically Maestro and not Mastercard? N26 by default gives you a Mastercard but they also offer a Maestro if requested[0] [0] https://support.n26.com/read/000001452?loca

Your post is how I can tell you've never been to Copenhagen during the winter. Bicycles are used year-round no matter the weather. There's a saying here that roughly translates to "there's no bad weather, only improper c

I take it you don't live anywhere a fairly northern latitude. Up here DST or not makes no difference, it'll still be night at that time and kids do just fine.

So? It's not a vote, it's a consultation. The idea being that anyone can give their input on the matter so it doesn't matter who is responding. The voting part, if it comes to that, comes later by the European Parliament.

No, adaptive cruise control where the car changes speed based on the car in front is also present on manuals. It only works above certain speeds though.

You're correct but I'm going to be the ass that points it out: the M4 has a 7-speed getrag DCT yeah but all other versions come with the ZF 8 speed traditional auto (which is really good, mind you). BMWs with DCTs other than M car

I'm on the other side of the fence. My previous car had an automatic, a lovely one too: the 7-speed getrag dual-clutch that bmw puts almost exclusively on the M models. When I bought it I thought that because the car was so good and it
