There’s a high chance Greenland is a part of that. I think one of those billionaires (whichever one founded Praxis) asked Trump to buy Greenland so he can terraform it and set up his country there. There is a source for it somewhere at www.theplotagainstamerica.com

My provider (Onet) is a known Polish news outlet so I don’t have such issues at home, but whenever I’m abroad I just spell it out: “oh-en-ee-tee”.

Onet, a Polish news website. I used it for my first ever e-mail and since then I have been using it kind of out of habit. Never felt a need to switch to something more robust.

Of course I have a gmail account too, but I use it mostly for things like logins and synchronization rather than for correspondence.

True, although this aspect is actually an area where I prefer driving. I find it relaxing to zone out my thoughts and just focus on what’s ahead of me with my favorite music. Depending on time of day, trains here are a bit tough to study in due to how many people there are

On the contrary, when I lived in the US on Long Island, a part of the country where people warn life without a car is impossible, I had a great transit experience. Buses were generally on time, modern and equipped with live tracking, and the trains were great too.

I know LI’s relative poor transit options are mostly in comparison to other areas in the Northeast, which is a densely populated region. I imagine my experience would be totally different in the Midwest or the Prairies. And that’s especially true for trains – LI is awesome in that regard

I’m Polish but I also made the switch to use public transport instead of my car, even though it’s not the cheapest once you’re not a student anymore. I feel better though knowing how much fuel I save by not driving in traffic for 1.5h 4 days a week. The other thing is that the money goes to the city so I will likely benefit from it in some way

I’ve just read it and I recommend everyone to do the same if your country doesn’t have one. Most of the tips aren’t Sweden-specific and it’s generally good info to have.

Depends on what’s available where you live. In Poland we have BLIK! I think a few other countries are starting to use it too. The way it works is that in your banking app you get a 6 digit code, and enter it in the terminal. Less convenient than tap-to-pay but writing that made me realize how spoiled I am, lol. It’s really convenient for online purchases though, no need to spend all that time writing card info and no risk of that info getting into the wrong hands.

Some things are harder to replace than others, and no one expects you to change everything anyway. I don’t know why it’s “too absurd”. If anything, our dependence on that makes them all the more important to use/develop alternatives for.

I understood it to mean that this bird feels like this particular mammoth isn’t quite as comfortable but he has a lot of other mammoths to choose from, so he is free

This game is either “mafia” or “werewolves” in Poland. Really fun to play but it sucks how much real life mirrors it…
