  • Japanese Precision & Accuracy

  • I spent a season in Whistler 20 years ago, and even though Whistler is "Disney Mountain" I managed to get to know some local residents through Japanese home stay students. Weed was everywhere, granted season skiers and and snowboarders are perhaps not a random selection of the population in that regard.

  • Twenty four US states are now considering legislation to allow small, plug-in solar power systems that connect directly into a wall socket.

    Jump

  • How do it plug in? How easy is it to do it. Do you need an electrician or can you do it yourself? How is the risks from fires?

  • Oatly loses long-running 'milk' battle with dairy lobby

    Jump

  • This seems like an unpopular opinion but I am very happy with this.

    I see this as protection for consumers buying and understanding what is actually in the food item.

    In Norway most farms are still family owned with high tariffs on many imported products directly competing. The main dairy producer is a co-op of all the farms, and this protects them from competion from shit products from Kraft or other multi national companies peddeling their over processed crap that barley deserves the name edible.

  • U.S. Dealers In Full Panic Mode After Canada Green-Lights Chinese Cars

    Jump

  • My "fear" with the Tesla system is customer service after the sale. Usually a local dealer will have to consider repeat sale and after-market service and repair. Building a good customer relation is key to that. Alternative is am anonymous underpaid call center "drone" in another country or dead email drops that never gets answered. Or worse some kind of AI chat feature on a glossy professional web page.

    My issue with all electric cars is the development rate and the risk of platforms not being supported for an extended time. How long will software be serviced? Right now I do not dare own an electric car older than five years as there are so many bugs due to rushed development

  • its a 1999 nissan actually

    Jump

  • Thats a turbo right? Tbf I didn't know Honda had turbo engines on their civics.

    I had a 2008 (Hatchback) 1.8L VTEC and loved it. (2.2L was never imported to Norway by the importer because of high pollution tax) Stiff suspension, sort of bucket seats and low profile tires.

    You in the US? Is the 1.5L turbo the same as in EU?

  • voted today https://www.nrk.no/nyheter/kongefamilien-1.11661059 141 voted to keep current constitutional monarchy, 26 for a republic.

    Also 76% of people asked in a poll trust the crown princess less after the recent Epstein information.

    In ages 19–29 and 30–39 its 81 %

    Also 44 % this she is unfit to rule

  • A civic after the 2011 redesign is a decent car. At least with the 2.2L engine

    French newspaper : Many Germans have a deep relationship with combustion cars. For them, buying a quiet electric car is emotionally hard to accept.

  • At one point I will buy a used El Camino (the.most.useless.pickup), tinker with it, hopefully with my son (now 3 yo) put in a 400hp Chevrolet LS engine and never drive it unless it's sunny.

    For my daily use I seldom travel over 15 km. and currently use a petrol mini One and have Mazda6 estate for family travel (the amount of bulky stash traveling with a small child necessitates is mind-numbing)

    An EV estate/ would cover both uses, so I totally agree with you

  • Hasbro is being sued for printing too many Magic: The Gathering cards - Dexerto

    Jump

  • For me it was the combination of burn-out from trying to get "good" at MTG while best results being top eight in GPQs, PTQs, and perhaps day two in GPs, and the focus on EDH. Tried dipping my toe in last year and just being overwhelmed by the insane amount of product. Even within the same set. For me part of the fun was "solving" the limited formats for each set. But now draft is its own boosters?

  • Hasbro is being sued for printing too many Magic: The Gathering cards - Dexerto

    Jump

  • Last time I was active was 10 years ago just as EDH was taking off. Buying the expensive early cards necessitated quite a lot of knowledge and a decent jewelers loupe. I can just imagine how hard it is today with the counterfeiters getting better.

  • This means that your agriculture is imported? ironically one of the few areas most nation protect with toll barriers.

    I can't get my head around that industry. In my area there are several vegetable farms, most are sold long before harvesting. So one year they had a amazing cauliflower year. Yields above expected. But they could not sell the excess as there was no buyers. So I could drive past looking at happy elks gorging themselves on delicious cauliflower before they plowed it into the field. And then I went to the local grocery store and bought plastic wrapped cauliflower from Spain...

  • Tbh. I have no feelings at all for the issue. You on the other hand seem to have plenty.

    I don't know about the UK, but I talk to my Swiss "colleagues" in several arenas (including EFTA) whereas I haven't seen anyone from the UK since Brexit. To me from my low perch Switzerland seem much more integrated than the UK. The again Iceland is not included in the infographic, and they are an EEA member

  • Disposable Median Income adjusted for Purchasing Power Parity

    Jump

  • Norway and Switzerland are EEA countries. Part of the inner market, not part of the customs union, no euro and no representation in the commission or parliament. Adopts most legislation.

    There are shit ton of low level participation from Norway and Switzerland in AdCo's, Group of Experts, CEN and other sub groups and working groups. So makes perfect sense to include them.
