I think some consider the Fehmarn Belt Fixed Link to consist of multiple parts, as the main tunnel (Fehmarn Belt Tunnel proper) is between a German island and a Danish island so stops a bit short. On the Danish side, they rebuild the Storst

I think e.g. Mastodon with IndieWeb is a way to fight against the enshittification and to bring back the good from the early years. "The IndieWeb is a people-focused alternative to the “corporate web”. We are a community of independent

The first anomaly was detected by the Finnish defence forces in Kajaani already the previous day, Sunday evening at 8:40pm local time, but they didn't understand the small deviation was very important and probably suspected it was a mi

Personally, I'd only call native-level speakers bilingual, but this has caused misunderstandings.

COP of peltier elements can be large only when the temperature difference is small, such as the measly 1.3 degrees you quoted. When do you want to cool something by only 1.3°C compared to the surrounding temperature?

In addition, seasonal disorders are equally common in Madrid and Helsinki, so that cannot explain any difference in sleep disorders. Btw, did you take a D vitamin supplement and use a light therapy lamp in the mornings?

We now see it's not sensible to depend on other countries be it for oil, ore, nuclear umbrella or cloud computing providers. I think we cannot buy oil and gas only from sane countries or we would already. How can you regain sovereignty

How come? A more fusional language is one where a single word can carry more forms of information where English would need more words (e.g. "my book"). This isn't directly related to how much information you should put in a s
