They can drive however they want in their villages. But they need to follow our rules when they come to town.

If they're going to do that they should also ban french tacos.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who is bothered by this shift away from software being a noun.

We have our own system, Twint. Wero was based on it, but so far they're not interchangeable.

Someday we'll have Gate gate, or maybe even another scandal at the Watergate complex, so Watergate gate.

I can't wait!

You know, I can see where you're coming from there, but people have to resist with the tools they have at hand. I think it's a lot more powerful sometimes to keep your resistance in the family, both literally and figuratively.

Or Jewish friends who publicly denounce what is now clearly a genocide are to be protected and lauded, of course.

But those who resist quietly among family and friends, also deserve our admiration. Sometimes quiet diplomacy is the most effective thing, and it's perhaps even more brave when well meaning folk like yourself are creating these litmus tests requiring public resistance.

How would that even work? Would Estonia have to station its own (NATO) forces in Finland?

Would Lithuania and Latvia have to do basic training in Poland?

It's obviously not serious.

Fatal motor vehicle accidents are just over 865000 times more common than commercial air travel accidents, but until dash cams we never got to see them, so people think it can't happen to them, when it's slightly worse than even odds.

If we limited drivers permits to the 8% or so of drivers who are actually competent we'd solve a lot of problems in several domains.

I self-selected as ineligible to drive years ago, and I've never regretted it. Of course I had to move away from my home country and learn a new language, but those are the shakes.

You can run it on your laptop. I do.

"Server" in this case refers to client-server architecture.

That said this community is about hosting things on a computer you own which can very much be online. But this one works offline too.
