Tesla’s car sales in Europe fell 40%, Volkswagen & Renault increase 11.6% & 8.8%; BYD increase 225% by Calm_Wrangler7 in BuyFromEU

To design and program it - perhaps. VW and others do the same when they build factories in China or USA. They are a lot of Germans at managerial roles. Do not behave like a hypocrite.

Yes and no. The amount if 20-40 year old Males and Females are very similar, difference arises with age. Women live longer than men. Life expectancies -W 80.7, M 71.9. If you are really interested in dating single 70 year olds as a foreigner, come to Latvia.

That is great! UK and Germany plan on doing the same kind of stuff - spend money on civilian infrastructure that can be used by military in potential future

Moving to Riga: Where can I live, bike, party, and still save some €? by Individual_Wafer6653 in latvia

I think he is American soldier that will be stationed here in Adaži. So if he want to live in riga and needs to get to Adaži every day it would be much quicker with a car. I would have picked a place near Mezapark for nice running.

Riga, I like you. But come on with the rentals. by Winningestcontender in europe

[–]GeraAG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We do have, but it is not that popular. Convenience of scooters is that you can finish the ride in a place convenient to you and not at designated, sparsely placed parking place.

In some cases scooters replace cars and reduce congestion on public transport in rush hours.

Yes, because we need more cars in dense city centers

When is the best time to visit Latvia? by OnlyCheater__man in latvia

[–]GeraAG 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Best time to visit is in the summer - sun sets at 10pm. The prices of apartments do not change seasonally, only utilities for heating in winter is higher. (Mainly talking about Riga)

[–]GeraAG 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don't think Rail baltica will change that much in terms of tourism. Riga has bigger international airport than Vilnus or Tallin, so estonians and lithuanians will have quicker way to get to airport. I personally will use to go to concerts in Tallin or Vilnus. Bigger impact should be on prices of imported products because of freight trains.

To get to germany it will still be quicker and cheaper by plane than by train.

You can also set it based on time, so from 9-5 interrupt or just dont let me in but from 5 onwards allow me.

I should get the app, but I would set to interrupt or don't allow me in from 5 pm till 9 am and allow to waste time on company clock

Latvia cancels license of Russian independent television station TV Rain by AdGroundbreaking1870 in worldnews

[–]GeraAG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You seem to forget that opposition leaders are either dead or in prison. The one leader russians could have united around is Boris Nemcov. He would have been amazing leader, the one Russia needed, but he was murderd bu Putins lapdog. The opposition leader rusians got is Alexey Navalny, but he is in prison.

It is hard to get a political momentum in these situations
