Not really. In Spain these are not allowed in highways, can be driven with a moped license, and are available in micro pickup and van versions, great for city deliveries, and such. If you want larger, more powerful microcars get a Smart, or Toyota IQ, or something similar. The L7e class exists for a reason, and it doesn't preclude a new intermediate class (where I find the safety relax a fucking mistake. Vehicles should have as many safety features as neede and possible in respect to their usage parameters.

I don't think most of the masses in Europe know or give a shit about what happens in the US. Maybe the name of the president, or when the US fucks up some country, like Irak or Afghanistan.
Now they sort of do, because of the world wide impact of Trump's psychotic world commerce antics, or Russia and Ukraine, which are close enough, which may impact them directly or close enough.
I think there is an image of Europe in the US of a place where people are generally cultured, which is not really the case. Hicks are everywhere. Millions in Europe are workers in industry and agriculture or fishing, and care jack shit about what happens outside their sphere.
Europeans do have a higher awareness of what happens outside their borders mainly because they have been invading each other for millenia, so international relations are culturally important, but that's about it. Football is way more important than international news for the majority of Europeans. Bread and circuses.
Spain produces a lot of high quality wine, but also a lot of lower quality wine, used for mixing to make cheap "table" wine. Much of that is exported, often in cartons.
Many French winemakers have been importing that type of wine for decades to mix to increase volume in lower quality wines.
So fuck the more agricultural strong members, and benefit the more industrial ones? Nice.
(Some) People are up in arms about Russian meddling in the west, but Israel has been doing it since the 40's and no one batted an eyelash.
The fact that some (many?) Jewish lawmakers and military are allowed to have dual Israeli/US citizenship is baffling to me.
I would depart Barcelona too.
Fuck! I rode that a few months ago!
Humidifiers are simple and cheap. Maybe the cost of a 2 in 1 wouldn't make commercial sense.
Also, it would probably need two water tanks, as I imagine you wouldn't want to use the drain tank as a clean water source.
Just guessing here.
I have 2 4K tvs, one used as a monitor. I'm now rewatching some 70's - 80's shows. When the intro starts, I'm acutely aware of the low res, but as soon as the show starts, I get into the content, and I really don't notice the resolution.
If you focus on the resolution instead of the content, maybe the content is not that engaging.
I also think that 1080 is fine for normal living room distance. In my case, though, I use a 42" 4K as a monitor, where I have the equivalent of 4 1080 monitors. No gaming, but for my use it's more practical than multiple monitors.
Not ideal, but you can air gap the TV from the network, and use some small sbc, or even a firestick or android box. That's what I do. Stremio?
True. What we need are the likes of the fiat 500, 600, 127, Renault 4 (the 2 CV actually would fall in Microcar territory), and such, but with updated safety design and features. Under 100Km//h, not allowed on highways, size restrictions. A middle ground between automobiles, and microcars. The only compromise that shouldn't be made is in safety.
