Guess which state earns a lot on Europe staying with fossil fuels but not much if we go all nuclear?

Whoa there. It's just a programming language. No need to spill vitriol over that. I have no skin in the game. Got into V very recently, because it appeals to me at face value. And in some ways better than other "better C" lan

I really wish NHS was as good in practice as people praise it online. Even seeing a GP is now a fight with the system.

Poland also votes on Sundays (although some referenda have been 2-day affairs). And I'm pretty much sure, it was never allowed to vote here without an ID. I'm also baffled how that is a problem in UK/US.

It's really common in German-speaking countries and in the Mediterranean.

In the UK, it's usually the landlord (or their agent) doing the background checks on you. And they pay for it.

In the process of renting a flat in Germany, SCHUFA is not even the biggest travesty. The worst part is potential tenants handing over full dossiers about their background to the prospective landlords. Passport copies, payslips, account sta

People on skilled worker visa already don't receive these BRP cards in UK. You have to use your passport for everything that demands an ID.

That's quite a straw man. Looking back at Berlin Christmas Market terrorist attack, we can see what a failure of surveillance can result in.

The emissions are not really bad for modern motorcycles. It's not hard to get a Euro 5 certified one.

Interesting it took so long. In UK it already takes way below 10s. Would it also apply during the night and, on weekends and holidays?

It's the same with Home Office. Skilled worker visa is proved with a share code. It's a bit weird not to have a single sticker or even stamp in your passport.

Going for pip-tools, twine, virtualenv and build makes sense. But I wished he went for black instead. Ruff is not there yet.

Techniker Krankenkasse still sends paper cheques. I wouldn't consider Germany to be avant-garde of banking in any sense.

Also don't use WD40 and other cheapo sprays. They can gunk up the hole. Graphite or PTFE-based sprays are much better.

Had the same feelings. I always expected UK to have this "famous" mild climate. After I moved there, I don't understand the trope. It's extremely windy and humid.

Zed might be faster but Sublime Text at least runs on Linux, so it wins for me.

I really wish Bitwig had similar capabilities. Yes you could quite easily write plugins nowadays but you can't really embed them into the DAW itself, using floating windows instead. And you can't really make them look native easil
