- throw-the-towelThe German health insurance system also has a deficit of 6 billion euro, while doctors are leaving the profession. Do you think that's sustainable?
- I tend to believe that Communism provided enough of a threat to the Western elites that they felt forced to keep their countries visibly better. Not ready to defend this argument right now, I just think it does hold water.
- The voting will continue until morale improves!
- Among the populations of all regions of the EU, only the city of Budapest identifies more with Europe than with their country or region. Even that might be just a protest against Orbán.

- It's you claiming that he must have the ability to get an extraordinary visa, so do you have a reference for your claims?
- The only ferry in the Caspian I know goes to Turkmenistan, which is North Korea-level strict with issuing visas.
- This heavily depends on the country.
- A subway is very different from an intercity railway network. For one, there's probably fewer different routes on the subway so trains conflict with each other less. Also, a subway doesn't have to accomodate freight traffic as well.
- "Jaws lost its teeth"? I see what you did there.
But yeah. I had the fortune to see Jaws on a bus in highland Bolivia (talk about a weird choice for forced onboard entertainment!), and it was more annoying than it was scary.
- I'm wondering how do you folk even come up with this kind of optimisations.
- With what Google has become, I can't blame her.
- Right, what I was getting at is -- that isn't a fatal problem in practice, the price stays affordable.
- I'm 30 and I remember when this was still a thing in Russia. As soon as Communism crumbled and the new economy could provide enough food, literally everyone abandoned the dacha and the potatoes.
- If this argument were true, dictatorships couldn't exist. However, they do.
- Don't they also need special driver licences, which can have more stringent rules?
- And other laptops that imitate this are even worse. Like, where does the left button end, and right button start?
- Does the industry even have as much junior folks as it used to? Because cutting them, or not hiring them in the first place, is an alternative to lowering their salaries.
- Do you have a link to the Karmapa admitting he's not the real deal? I tried to google it but got nothing.
- They broke that just several weeks ago, at least for me.
