As a EU citizen I always buy my water bottled instead of from the tap, not only does it taste better.. but my family used to have a water distiller when I was growing up and we sometimes put tap water inside of it and after the distilling process the residue left was disgusting and gooey, even with some rust laced in (this was in the Côte d'Azur for context) in comparison most good quality bottled water just left a trace mineral residue. Safe to say I'd rather drink mineral residue over rust!

It feel's like being a genuine human being is enough to throw people off nowadays. It's not like he's a grifter, he has given critique on right wing social media, the "freedomphone" and republican legislation regarding tech.

I see everyone talk about his politics but what do you expect the man to do. Not stand up for his ideological support for FOSS technology and not talk about radical new technology such as the 3D printing of guns?

I think it's ridiculous that you can lose a full grade just for being disobedient. I get that school is made for the child to grow up to have a good job but this stops people more inclined to innovate to get far academically.

You're lucky, good for you.

Maybe it's because i don't live in Amsterdam.

I was just far too skeptical for my age and it caused me to have worse exam performance usually having me go from an A to a B- just for defying the teacher. School is more about following authority than anything else I believe.

Seem's fair. I just think the fact that the non rush hour traffic is so low is making the Netherlands be lower on the list. I wasn't exaggerating when I said that I saw fuller trains going to literal mountains.

I travel by train sometimes yet i've never seen a train remotely full here in my life. I've seen fuller trains going to the alpes than than those going to Amsterdam. This may be different during rush hours but outside of the rush hours trains are quite empty.

Damm guys 15 dislikes? I get that I misunderstood but i didn't expect to be ratio'd.

Seem's awesome, sadly not open source but it has an appeal.

In my country (The Netherlands) weed is defacto legal and widespread yet we don't suffer from a crisis as severe as the US has, if anything it's probably less likely that people go to harder substances since weed is so safe and widely available. I can even proudly say that I have never seen a junkie on the streets here.
