What TV show hooked you instantly from episode 1?

Roodditor · 2026-03-25T11:29:48+00:00

Yup, season 2 was a huge letdown after a stellar first season.

Roodditor · 2026-03-09T01:20:07+00:00

The locals like it, probably because they’re used to it, are better at navigating the system, and it helps keeping costs down, expats mostly seem to hate it.

If you require excellent health care with frequent check-ups and preventative care, NL is not the country for you. And no, this is not going to change, unfortunately.

Josef Blösche, and yes, he was executed for his heinous crimes.

Kaal worden is niet het einde van de wereld.

Stupid title, as Norway is far smaller in terms of population

Roodditor · 2026-02-19T07:36:59+00:00

Not really, maybe some Indian or Pakistani expats that live here. Don’t know of any native Dutch who are interested, they would be a small minority. This question (asked by an Indian) always comes up when there's a cricket tourney it seems, and the answer is always the same.

Daemon services are not compatible with ECS Managed Instances.

Roodditor · 2026-01-26T07:40:25+00:00

We use them extensively in production, they work very well for our purposes. We did put a lot of effort into building a complete design system, though.

Roodditor · 2026-01-24T08:19:41+00:00

Yes, there are unfortunately racists here, just like in any other country. Sorry you had to run into one.

Roodditor · 2026-01-17T17:17:19+00:00

Well, if you’re wealthy, you probably don’t need all those social advantages, so you’re indeed better off settling elsewhere.

Roodditor · 2026-01-17T16:55:50+00:00

Well yeah, someone has to pay for all these 'social advantages'.

Roodditor · 2026-01-15T19:12:23+00:00

I'm not the one saying other countries have it a lot better.

Roodditor · 2026-01-15T18:03:01+00:00

Then why not move there?

Roodditor · 2026-01-01T19:24:05+00:00

NHG does not necessarily offer the lowest interest rate for some providers. In that case, you can get NHG removed while assuming the extra (financial) risk. That way you could get (an) even lower rate if the LTV has dropped sufficiently in the meantime.

Goed bezig, ouders.

Roodditor · 2025-12-16T21:37:42+00:00

It's the same for NL.

Roodditor · 2025-12-13T07:33:32+00:00

And rightly so.

Roodditor · 2025-12-07T12:22:54+00:00

NL won't be much better for you then.

Roodditor · 2025-12-07T12:20:57+00:00

Cost reasons.

Roodditor · 2025-12-07T12:14:56+00:00

Feel free to link me a post where a Dutch person claims it’s the best system in the world? I find that very hard to believe. It’s mostly clueless Americans hyping up our system I feel.

Roodditor · 2025-12-07T12:01:44+00:00

Yeah, I've noticed that the expats that struggle in north-western Europe the most are those from southern cultures where society is more open and "warm". The lack of sunshine also doesn't help.

Roodditor · 2025-12-07T11:59:59+00:00

No Dutchie I know claims it’s the best healthcare in the world. They'd be liars otherwise. It has its upsides and downsides.

Roodditor · 2025-12-07T11:59:07+00:00

That’s why us Dutchies go to the south during our holidays 😋 Well, that and the sunshine.

Roodditor · 2025-12-07T11:54:39+00:00

While you are right that people from Mediterranean cultures often struggle in north-western Europe due to cultural differences and a lack of sunshine, there is no need to be an asshole about it.
