What do you mean by “ I seldom meet people that think that way”? You seldom meet people in Portugal that think in what way?

It’s kind of ironic because a lot of Californians moving to Portugal are also trying to escape some aspects of their country’s culture they don’t like. Except they are also escaping insanely high cost of living, increasing violent crime and

I think the reason is that the majority of people moving in to Portugal are nomads who already have high salaries, and the Portuguese trying to get out either have low salaries or are unemployed.

The US by far leads the world in profitable software companies and venture capital funding. The competition for talent in Silicon Valley combined with the huge amount of money generated/raised ends up increasing US engineer salaries ev

I understand that it would make sense for governments to not care since it’s money coming in and not displacing local workers. But the laws are still there, saying it’s illegal. If they weren’t, governments wouldn’t come up with special “

I believe that’s not what government laws says (for any country). Someone can correct me if I’m wrong but pretty much all countries/states consider you working there if you are physically present there. Your VPN or where your “commerci

Do you exercise regularly? First thing I would make sure to take a 1hr walk or short jog every day, go outside and get some sunshine. Maybe 30 min walk in morning and then another walk after work. Diet is also very important, cut out all sw

Yep that’s classic caffeine withdrawal symptoms for you. At least going from one coffee to zero is not too bad, some people who try to go from 5-6 cups/daily to zero will have a much harder time

So if Putin wants to take over all of Europe we should just let him?

Exactly, but then why doesn’t NATO just start a massive response now to save the lives of potentially tens of thousands of Ukrainians that may die in the next few weeks?

I think OP is referring to 1939 Hitler, i.e. invaded countries and clearly doesn’t care about killing civilians, but before the Holocaust. It’s clear from the last couple of weeks that Putin doesn’t even flinch at the thought of killing tho

Unfortunately with that logic then we will never push back against Russia. Putin invades Poland? “Oh we shouldn’t attack because Putin is irrational and might use Nukes, we’ll try appeasement first.” This interview with exiled Russian M. Kh

Apparently this tendency comes all the way back from the Mongols era. This lecture goes through over 800 years of Russian history (it’s in Finnish but you can turn on English subtitles): https://youtu.be/CvonRMSuFpw

Ukraine is not “luring” Russia into cities. Putin made quite clear he wants a regime change, so Russia must capture major cities to meet its goals. That would be like rephrasing “Thieves robbed bank” to “Bank lured thieves with cash”. That’

Yeltsin installed Putin to protect his family and friends’ assets.

One interpretation is that this is a proxy war against the West by Russia (because its president was not “chosen” by Putin and he hates democracy/the “West” as an ideal).

Any evidence that democrats “operate the antifa terrorist network”? There were riots in Portland after Biden was elected, it seems antifa are mostly anarchists and not a fan of the current Democratic Party either.

Seriously, that is the real question. Considering almost every other recent buyer in the U.S. has made money (on paper) on their property without having done any analysis.
