You mean the lack of decent dental healthcare. Most EU countries do not flouridate their water and we are just fine. Our toothpaste is fluoridated by the way, so it's by no means a stand against fluoride itself.

Judging by how people respond to this subject it's a hot take, but fluoridation should never be a substitute for brushing and regular affordable checkups if you ask me.

But, but.. Botanically speaking neither strawberries nor raspberries are actual berries. Fun fact: grapes are, so that makes any regular wine a berry wine.

Musk maintains that camera-only technology is the most “human” way to approach self-driving, since people use their eyes to navigate the road.

A few years ago I was driving on the motorway, came up on a bend in the road and was greeted by a dense freak fog bank out of nowhere. I immediately let go of the accelerator to reduce speed, at the same time my dashboard lit up like a Christmas tree and a collision alert started blaring. That gave me enough time to apply the brakes and prevent a collision with the first and only traffic jam I've ever seen there.

I see no reason to not augment our own capabilities with radar and lidar, to see what we as humans can't.

And for any EU people, like me, that happen to come across this post: EU petition

If you haven't signed the version that applies to you yet, please do so. We need every vote!

That confirms the shitty design. Decent outlets don't require springs to keep plugs from falling out.

Your culture will adapt to service us. Resistance is futile.

If only my airways wouldn't clamp up tight and my skin wouldn't start flaking, itching and basically falling apart after a session like that. ☹️

I'll never hate a language which has a separate Wikipedia page about its profanity. Such a colourful language!

I hear you, I dropped the Devil's language in highschool as soon as I was able to do so. I still get PTSD just thinking about the listening exercises on tape cassettes, where usually someone told her entire life story in about a single minute. Unbelievable how fast people can talk in French.

Well, there goes my appetite, this Dutch guy hates herring. Can't stand the smell, taste or texture. 🤢

Oh well, I wouldn't have been welcome anyway, seeing I've had the audacity to be critical of Israeli ~~genocide~~ defense, TACO and Daddy Put-it-in.

Guess I'll go spend my tourist money elsewhere.

And don't forget the US will again get to decide to arbitrarily discard any nuclear agreements, which is of course another great incentive for Iran to not start a military nuclear program.
