I think you can sit all day on a shitty chair as long as you do some strenght training to ensure your spine is sufficiently stabilised. Only time I got some back aches was during Covid when the gyms were closed for half a year.

What does that even mean? Did you not get the whole, burning hydrocarbons is bad for the climate memo? We have to stop all net carbon emmissions in the next fifteen years or were screwed (propably already are) and twats like you keep going

You gotta start somewhere mate, might as well start with a rule that says, if you're gonna build something new and put a new stove in, might as well make sure it's electric. Really don't see you're point here. So because

Your arguments do not make any sense. Contrary to CO2 emmissions, nitrogen emmission have a direct effect on local wildlife, biodiversity and health of people and animals. It therefore does make absolute sense to limit emmissions, even if t

The 'small guy' are a couple of extremely rich cattle feed producers (in fact in the top 10 richest families in the country) which financed a succesfull propaganda campaign to derail this extremely necessarry piece of legislation.

What are you even talking about?! Nobody is talking about banning livestock production. The netherlands could literally reduce the amount of livestock in the country by 50% and still produce more meat and milk than is consumed by Dutch soci

Nitrogen fixation is mainly a problem related to livestock, 75% of livestock/meat production is exported in the Netherlands. This has nothing to do with food security...

And to add to this: The Netherlands is currently a huge meat producers while being a relatively small country with very high population density. In fact, 75% of dutch meat production is exported. This has therefore nothing to do with compro

Sure... You could also reframe it as the cost of building a big gate around your low homelessness neighborhood to keep the homeless out and to have security personelle to boot them out of the neighberhoud if they do get in...

Sure but isn't that a bit of a chicken-egg question? Why doesn't that the Netherlands have a huge poor underclass? Perhaps it has something to do with education at all levels being practically free and having social safety nets to

You could easily solve that by having social/redistributions measure on a municipality/state level... The Netherlands is also part of the EU, very little social welfare measures are effectuated through the EU, most of that happens

Why are you guys talking about a bail-out? Is there any talk of that? Not as far is I know... As far as I've seen that only happens when there is a systemic/ high contagion risk...

Sure but is a rationally acting financial institution operating in line with the incentives of the system they operate not also inclined to do everything to keep your money safe?

That is a patently false statement. Extensive A/B tests have shown that most people don't like a coloured sound and instead prefer a flat frequency response with low distortion. You can convince yourself that your expensive audiop

Self check-out works amazingly well in the country I'm from (the Netherlands), most shops have even done away with most traditional check out lanes, leaving only a couple for people that don't want to use self checkout. You do hav

Sure war still happens all the time, it is however of a very different scale and intensity. Nukes have basically precluded any direct confrontation between nuclear capable states (or alliances with those states). Wars between those states u

This is the exact same model plenty of Dutch cities use and this is absolutely not the problem they have. Sounds more like a city cleaning problem than anything to do with waste collection.

Who would want to buy a farm for which the license to operate has been revoked? This is a reduction in total livestock in the Netherlands as a result of a reduction in the amount of farms, these farms are not just being bought up and integr

This of course relates to nitrogen holding compounds such as ammonia, other sources (in the form of nitrogen oxides) are road and airplane engines as well as construction and heavy industries. These nitrogen compounds actually have an acute

The reason for having reserves in another currencies is for your country to be able to buy stuff with that other currency from other countries, it is therefore an enabler of international trade. You seem to be seeing reserve currency as som

Sure, but what you are describing is not the same as becoming a tax resident of country solely for tax gains, I think that is morally wrong. I do believe in open borders and flows of labor, if specific part of the the world raise wages to a

there is a small subset of people that indeed believe in the programmable money future in that world, the vast majority of people were just sold a get rich quick scheme and are now losing their money.

So not paying taxes like everybody else which pay for public services you use is morally defensible as long as you don't pay those taxes to a democratic nation as opposed to a dictatorship?

Just like russia was America's best friends during WWII, they still let them bleed dry before entering the war ensuring a sufficiently weakened Russia after the war.

The thing is, the quality is not that high and the look not that great. It's just extremely well known and you people know what they are getting. If you know where to look and especially if you are willing to go online, you can het the

They're already using euv. They didn't try to use euv and failed, they tried to stay on duv too long and couldn't get the yield they needed for too long, that was the mistake.

Sure but why would you want that extra pixel realestate on a 27 inch or even 32 inch monitor? It's like zooming out and scaling everything down so you can fit more on your screen with the same sharpness, the thing is, you wouldn't

Isnt this really a question the reflectivity and amount of absorption in the atmosphere of the wavelength you're using?
