I assume it must be a very misguided A/B-test, one which I imagine won't actually roll out in the end.

Musicians were getting screwed by labels long before streaming became a thing, and labels are still mostly where the money disappears to

No one believes your threats any more, Taco Don

Critical support for AI if they actually manage to replace British people

Taco Don strikes again

About 200 meters, but I usually take the bike down to the Lidl 1 km away.

Where I last lived I had 200 meters to a small shop and 3.5 km to the local Lidl, which was fine but not ideal.

Getting a bike with a rack might be a good idea for your grocery runs. 3 km is less than 10 minutes on a bike.

Originally airlines preferred them over two engined planes because they were safer,

Up until ETOPS (aka Engines Turn Or Passengers Swim) was introduced in 1986, it was not even legal to run cross-atlantic flights to and from the U.S with twin engines.

As I understand it, point-to-point taking over from hub-and-spoke coincided with mid-size high-range airplanes like the 787. Before that, the economics of running point-to-point had trouble penciling out, since you needed fairly large aircraft to handle the distance. Hence, hub-and-spoke made sense - run small aircraft to and from hubs and then run a large long-range aircraft carrying a large amount of passengers.

Drug trade as I understand it. His gang has also been actively at war with another gang, hiring minors to perform shootings or bombings.

May she have used it as toilet paper

'Fart' does refer to speed occasionally, but the key here is that it's always called 'Hastighetskontroll' in Swedish. Note the double 'L' in 'kontroll' and the compounding of 'hastighet' and 'kontroll'.

This is either Norwegian or Danish.

It's true that 'fart' means speed in Swedish, but in this context 'hastighet' would be used (~'hastiness').

I really don't see what's insane about that to be quite honest

Moose can be pretty good, but I think I would have to say Turkey

While not ideal, this can still be useful. In Sweden, we employ speed cameras strategically around areas of higher risk, such as intersections with cars coming onto a larger road with an obscured view. Reducing the speed in that particular spot does probably save lives.

Still, adjusting the design speed is the preferable alternative, but that does not make speed cameras completely ineffective.

It's not about actual safety, but perceived safety. If the design directly prevents you from feeling like you can go fast, you don't do it.

Mass go brrrr

Residential wind for electricity generation is not really recommendable afaik, but it could be viable for some amount of heat generation, potentially: https://solar.lowtechmagazine.com/2019/02/heat-your-house-with-a-mechanical-windmill/

Bullshit.

You can't opt out of government-provided health insurance. It's not even really referred to as health insurance, it's really just referred to as health care.

I get my additional private health insurance paid for by my employer, so I never actually pay myself, but the same one seems to be going for about €110 a month.

I don't know that I would buy it if I had to pay myself, but I'm quite happy to get it for the small amount of additional taxes I have to pay on the benefit from the employer.
