  • So you think the government in the United States of America is so afraid of its constituents that they are not raising the taxes.

    What about all the other countries in the world that have less or similar taxes like the states but no 2. amendment? Are they completely reliant on sending strongly worded letters to the newspapers? Or do you think in a functional democracy there might be other ways for constituents to wield power?









  • This is probably not in the same categories as other experiences, buuuut the Guinness museum in Dublin the evening before st Patrick’s day was quite fun!

    There’s a large bar at the top/end of the museum and a band was playing and 100 or so people ended up in a conga line.

    I think I had 4 tasty Guinness during the museum tour sand countless at the museum bar😅





  • In Norway having loads of credit cards is negative for getting a house loan as it is potential debt that goes against your payment ability for the house loan.

    Meaning we do have a credit score system for getting loans and more stuff on various credit solutions, but credit cards works against larger loans.

    Which can be a pain in the ass when you want to buy a house/apartment and have credit cards that might deny you the last bit of money to win the bidding war…




  • The more you walk or run, the more breaths you make. What’s your pulse/breath while walking? What about “any other form of activity” that could introduce sweat? Skimming, cycling, skiing, fucking… hell even hopping wood and lifting weights make you breathe faster if you strain yourself.

    I’ll be take breaths




  • Its always more costly and less efficient to produce new things in smaller quantity than large numbers. So electric car manufacturers at this point in time costs more to produce from an environment perspective. As the number of electric cars go up, my understanding is that this will compare to fossil fuel car production.

    Imo you cannot compare these two as its impossible to be as efficient as a large scale manufacturer until you become one yourself.
