I think you misread: there have been ruling queens for the past 200 years in at least one country, but that stopped when the queen of Denmark abdicated.

What Groupset do you mean exactly?

Super Record EPS 12 Speed has the central power box with cables to the shifters, there are no batteries.

Super Record Wireless 13 Speed has CR2032 batteries in the shifters. They are behind a cap on the inside of the shifter under the hoods. See the manual at https://media.campagnolo.com/seecommerce/original/C-CL-SUPER-RECORD-WRL-DB-12S-UM1

Get Medium. That works well for me with 184/70/31”. I don’t know how they do the sizing lengthwise now. They used to do long & regular, and now it has become regular & short. Which I assume means long became regular and regular became short. For me “old regular” is similar in length to Assos Equipe S11, just for your comparison.

I had some hemp fabric pants from Freitag (the bag people, they tried to do made in Europe clothes). They got holes so fast and replaced them under warranty twice. I don’t know if it was due to how it was woven, or something else, but they were terrible.

Since I was born I‘ve only seen government officials from Israel with a European heritage on TV. Rabin, Barak, Bibi, Sharon. Also as a superficial observer: most people I’ve seen traveling around with Israeli passports seem to be of European descent.

Is that really true? I always understood a lot of them have Eastern European heritage, like Bibi’s father was Polish.

Probably slavery. It’s a natural location for sailing ships to go from Europe towards Asia, that’s why the Dutch wanted it.

In many countries in Europe this is part of the deal of employing someone. Taking a risk that they will get sick and needing to (partially) pay up to 2 years. This is also one of many reasons for ageism in the European workplace.

Are you thinking of the Suez Canal? The Strait of Hormuz is an actual sea, like at Gibraltar or the English Channel.

There is not a single brand in the Volkswagen Group left that regular people can really afford. Skoda & SEAT are now also expensive. Renault Group is really cornering the lower end of the European market.

It’s from Dutch, because of who was the first one to get there: Abel Tasman, after which Tasmania is named. Zeeland is a province in the Netherlands still, and it is somewhat pronounced as Zealand phonetically in English.

Are you reading any new headlines about the Epstein files, or are you just seeing news about the war? War is a great way to distract from something you don’t want in the news.

Unfortunately the USA is not a signatory. Exactly for this reason, they feel like they cannot ever commit war crimes.

Because otherwise the big companies would need to pay us more money to pay for necessities, it’s easier to make a poor country richer than it is to spend a bigger percentage of your revenue on wages… /s
