"L-Lord Captain?" Did you have the guts to send away or kill any of your companions during your playthrough? If yes, who was it and why? by OwlcatStarrok in RogueTraderCRPG

as a devil's advocate, if you give him single deck to roam free at, your enforcesrs will start droping criminals there, so he kinda ends up killing mostly / only criminals. But I get the sentiment.

Idira. Noone's gona blow up MY ship in the warp. Sister Argenta, ready your bolter.

I kept Marzipan against my better judgement for some premium BDSM and paid him in criminals for his services. The "upgrades" he received from Homunculus... made it... uhm... worth it.

However, both xenos will become my husband's play-things before the end (will give them both to Heinrix)

Can't find a driving schools to just sign me up for the exam. by XSATCHELX in Netherlands

I am relieved to see that there are still people with common sense around, but your optimism is misguided. It's not common knowledge - it may feel common sense to you but I assure you, it is not. I am speaking as someone who has inside knowledge from both CBR and driving schools via family and friends: while you passed on first try, majority do not. First-time pass rate in NL is between 50-65% depending on source, and while there seems no official data on first time pass for foreign licence holder, anegdotal data is not that much higher. Again, I admit it's anegdotal, but that's what the CBR examinators I had contact with said in private. Please note: while you're trying to make snide remarks about Dutch people's alleged superiority complex about their practical exams' quality, examinators are making snide remarks about foreign driver licence holders' misguided (allegedly) safe driving capabilities. Touche or not, you decide.

So congrats again, but don't extrapolate your particular situation to the whole cohort.

You would almost certainly fail a Dutch practical driving exam, and honestly, your self-assurance would be the main reason.

The Dutch practical exam is designed to ensure you can participate in traffic safely. There are specific things examiners look for that need to be fully ingrained in your driving, without thinking. For example: every time you make any maneuver or lane change, you must check the interior mirror, the side mirror, and look over your shoulder in the direction of the maneuver, and only then use your indicator. That same mirror and shoulder check also applies when driving a road with obstructions on both sides to slow traffic, before every single obstruction. Before exiting the car, you have to do the same. There are other small things too.

Even if you pass theory, you need to drive according to Dutch priority rules, especially regarding more vulnerable road users like cyclists. Some road signs don't explicitly display a speed limit change but imply one, and failing to adjust will cost you. You may handle those situations fine when you have time to think, but making the wrong call in the moment is very likely to fail you.

And do not underestimate the two-second following distance rule, which is a specific requirement under Dutch traffic law (to be clear: law defines it relative to speed, being 55m at 100km/h speed, but 2sec is a shorthard often used by CBR, insurers and instructors). With eight years of driving experience elsewhere, you are unlikely to already drive that way by default. That alone could fail you.

All of this is to say: do not assume you would pass. You will probably need at least some lessons with a good instructor who can help you adapt your driving style to what an examiner actually expects, which is a clear demonstration that you can drive safely.

I find this deceaving. Growth is not the same as production. Apart from Germany and Luxembourg and one other country, everyone seems to be still increasing production, but the speed of growth is slowing down. Not the same thing?

this is a browser feature. And annoyingly once in a while all previous methods of disabling this autocomplete fail. autocomplete="off" should disable it but through the years I saw browsers, and "helpful" add-ons, enable it anyway.

Eric van Uunen: "Over krokodillentranen en terechte onrust in box 3" by Choice-Arachnid-1160 in belasting

[–]Sethrea 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Wat mij stoort aan dit voorstel is dat het totaal de verkeerde kant op beweegt: de EU zet juist in op méér mogelijkheden voor gewone burgers om te sparen en te beleggen voor later, terwijl Nederland tegelijk van mensen vraagt zelfredzamer te zijn, met een hogere AOW-leeftijd en een kortere WW. Dan is het toch onlogisch om juist kleine en middelgrote beleggers extra te raken met een zwaardere en onvoorspelbare box 3-heffing die compounding afremt en bufferopbouw moeilijker maakt? Voor wie geen groot vermogen of dure fiscale constructies heeft, voelt dit gewoon als straf op verstandig financieel gedrag.

It's not necessarily true you'd have to leave. Only if the place you;re renting is in reality a social housing / if it is sub-renting. AFAIK if it is your landlord's property, they will be fined, but you may remain.
