There are multiple shortages going on. For leading edge chips going into phones and GPU's maybe we wait for our game console or new phone a few months. But there are also shortages for automotive sensors, microcontrollers, power delive

>Where do the worn out NL semis go? Eastern Europe. You need to have a Euro 5 or Euro 6 diesel engine to be allowed in many Western European cities as a commercial truck. So old trucks aren't viable.

Oceanco is not within Rotterdam municipal borders. It's downriver in Alblasserdam. But still, Rotterdam wants to keep the shipbuilding and outfitting industry in the region strong. Removing this bridge for a few days really isn'

It's not a bridge that is actually in use. It's a historical bridge that's a national monument.

Horsepower is not horsepower. American "HP" is not the same as the horsepower (PS, pferdestärke) we use in Europe when we talk about "horsepower". a kW is always 1000 watt, not 992.3 watts because of course it's a

Oh definitely. You need to constantly be checking all your mirrors. If you get out without checking your door/rearview mirror i would expect them to fail you on the spot.

As a Dutch driver i only know about this technique from foreign media. I was never taught to do this during my driving lessons, don't do it and don't know anyone else that opens their door this way.

In urban areas increased ventilation might increase PM2.5 (unless it is filtered). 30 mcg/M^3 PM2.5 might mean a lot of covid particles or the house across the street just lit their wood heater.

Maybe for simple things. Have you ever tried to plaster a wall or ceiling? You can watch 100 videos of how its done, if you don't have the motor skills and muscle memories it's not so easy. And even 'simple' DIY might be

Not all Europeans use a drying rack indoors. In the Netherlands only the poor do this. It takes a long time and doesn't even save any energy as the water from your clothes makes your entire house humid and feel cold in the winter.

So odd to call chicken pox lethal. It's not in the government vaccination program in the Netherlands. 97% of kids have had it. I've never heard of someone dying from it. When i was a kid getting chicken pox was very much not a big

I doubt this house would make it to 50 years in places with a moderate climate. The lack of insulation makes it way too expensive to use as a dwelling or office (ignoring that you could not get a building permit in many places because it wo

The enormous parks here were closed multiple times over the past 2 years. I'll never depend on such amenities again because they can be taken at will.

My car has lane assist but it makes life worse because it doesn't recognize how lanes are used in this country. In the countryside on certain roads you are supposed to cross over the dashed line so it just keeps dinging at you until yo

Also consider that the new NCAP ratings aren't about real safety. You can only get a maximum of 3 starts if you don't include nanny systems like lane assist, front assist, side assist, auto braking. For me this makes the NCAP ra

No net emissions if you burn the tree close to were it grew. In the Netherlands we get our biomass from Scandinavia and Canada with boats and call that green energy. Ignoring the fuel for the boats and trucks to move the biomass to the powe

European city bikes are most definitely not built to go 25 mph. A Dutch step through bike with a backpedal brake at 25mph would be very sketchy.
