Hey the BMW engine that had 2 redundant everything was pretty awesome because half the engine could die and it’d keep going as an inline 6. It was 2 of everything. ECU, Distributor, even fuel pumps and rails

As an Estonian, I obviously know some jokes about Finns. But I won’t go into anything weird or racist because my favourite one is actually relevant and not racist, but more like historic satire.

It’s the Winter War. Russians in Finnish territory make camp. Then a voice from the nearby forest yells: “I’m all alone, come and get me!”

The Russian commanders discuss for a moment and agree: Better not send just one man, or the Finn might best him. So they send ten.

Half an hour later, nobody is back, but they again hear the Finn: “I’m still alone, come and get me!”. They send a hundred, thinking this will surely be enough.

Finally, the commanders get really irritated to hear the Finn’s voice again, so they send a thousand, and this time one man comes back, all bloody and ragged: “Don’t listen to that lying piece of shit! There’s two of them!”

It’s a sad day, but (mental) health comes first.

If I ever see you in the street, I’ll buy you a beer or 2. If I still recognize your face from your avatar by then :)

It’s easy enough to shoot someone, but that was well planned out beforehand, executed in a way to cause maximum media stir while getting away clean…

And then several days later dude keeps a manifesto AND a ghost gun on him while outside…

Don’t worry, you can still buy USB 2.0 sticks nowadays.

They’re priced almost the same as USB 3.whatever sticks. Literally. Add an euro or 2 and double the capacity and go to usb 3.0

That’s a common misconception. The US actually invests a metric fuckton of money into the healthcare system. It’s just that they have the most inefficient possible healthcare system, so providing just medicare, medicaid and VA benefits, which don’t come close to covering everyone, costs more (in %of GDP, not just absolute numbers) than for most countries the cost of subsidizing healthcare for everyone.

Hell, even conservatives might be happier under a socialized healthcare system. There could even be LESS government spending and people would be getting subsidized healthcare.

War Thunder is a sim game. In the forums, for some reason, classified documents are often leaked (I think to settle arguments over whether X plane/tank/weapon behaves correctly in scenario Y). The Eurofighter Typhoon is a fighter jet built in cooperation between multiple European countries.

She’s also free to get an appointment in another country. Here’s the pricing for uninsured patients in a hospital in my country. What she needs is:

• Y60273 Mammograafia, kaks rinnanääret 2 sihis 28.00 €

It can get pretty expensive here too without insurance (which you can get by having a job, or having a <3yo kid, or being retired, or being disabled, or being unemployed but registering so you’re officially looking for a job). Major surgeries will cost thousands of euros. But simple procedures that should be cheap, are cheap.

Wine already exists and can run pretty new Windows software. A fork also exists for MacOS and the other BSDs can also run Wine.

Running Windows apps on Linux natively seems impractical to me, the OSes are structured very differently and I’m fairly sure this would introduce many hard to fix CVEs.

ReactOS does actually submit patches to wine sometimes because they use parts of wine! But they have their own windows-like kernel so they only need wine for userland, not the whole thing

I figured but I couldn’t figure out what the connection between Black and drive-thru is. There’s no Uber in my country, we have Bolt and sturr.

There’s no tipping culture in my country but the waiters still smile usually. At the nicer places at least

Do the white drivers not wanna go to drive thru or what

Website requires login every time, apps for most banks here have biometrics for transfers under a certain limit or people you send money to often.

I can’t imagine using either of those solutions every day, sometimes several times per day.

I made 3 transfers yesterday, but there have been days of 10-20 transfers and I don’t always have them planned, often it’s pretty spontaneous when we buy used things from other people, particularly strangers.

How do I send people money without a bank? Okay maybe Wise but as you pointed out in the other thread, that money might not be insured. Also, iPhones are harder to unlock from before first unlock than many stock Androids.

I agree, but the other commenter specifically was saying that it’s a case of do or do not, there is no try.

Sure, but my point was if you can’t even use ROMs because then you lose access to your bank (and now McD apparently), there’s much less reason to use Android - certainly was so 2.5 years ago when they were mostly all promising 2-3 years of support for flagship devices and Apple had a track record of 6-7 years.

Turns out it’s not an actual bank in the EU either, they just give you an IBAN number and everything.

However, funds in EU are still insured at 20k per account and since they’re not a bank, they can’t be giving out subprime mortgages using your money like banks do, they have to keep it as safe as possible.

It’s not for privacy. But without access to custom ROMs, Android is shit.
