Idk if they do but the whole UK does

Unless we invent extreme life extension and make it available to everyone and they all want it, yeah, that's guaranteed, current path or no

Ideally with the drivers inside

No yeah that's exactly the problem. Because it's musk, we can be confident it is just bullshit and won't result in any meaningful innovation. It's just torturing monkeys for shits and gigs.

Do you mean "we (humans)"? Because "the royal we" just means "I". Like how the queen says "we are not amused" when they mean "I don't like it". Related to how in many European languages (including early-modern and older English) the plural is a polite form of address (like tu and vous in French, du and sie in German, thou and you in English)

We will, one way or another. At some point simply enough people will have died that we will stop making things meaningfully worse 🤷‍♂️

Coke belongs in your second list.

I think that is the joke

I don't even think there should be a punishment. Children aren't tiny adults with the same kinds of obligations we have. If they don't make their lunch their parents should make them a nice lunch, it should just be part of the kids routine of learning life skills to make lunch.

Shhh, it'd be fun

IMO it's good and fine for a 5+ year old to make their own lunch, but at that age it's absolutely important and necessary for parents to double check that it's fine and they've got it with them.

Possibly switch to driving on the right, that'd be good

2 is higher than 3 or 4.

Presumably OP is about as skilled as, or a little more than, account farmers (who are bound to be pretty good to make any money...) and less skilled than professional YouTubers.

Sure but you can also buy chanterelles/porcini/oysters/morels etc in shops, it's not only portobello type

Oh, my bad haha, I absolutely was

That's great but the percentage of people who currently live in single family houses is much greater in the USA than in Germany.

If only the USA was building some solid laws protecting tenants...

Popularly known for being one of the most horrible things, haha. Even the Swedes don't like it, they just keep it around as a prank to play on foreigners and need strong alcohol as a chaser to get it down...

Food is generally acidic, basic food would taste bitter and awful.

Germany is a terrible comparison here. Home ownership in Germany is about 50%, true, much lower than the US' 65%. However, the majority of those rentals are apartments rather than houses, since even small towns are highly densified, very unlike the USA. There are many state landlords which provide rentals at a very attractive price; it's rare for people to spend more than 30% of their post-tax income on rent. Furthermore, there are extremely strong protections for renters, restrictions on rent increases, and they can renovate their apartments as they please. That's very different from what American real estate corporations want.

Yeah pretty much yeah
