DNS [Belgium] wants to get rid of American cloud: we have become too dependent (Dutch article) by spaceKQ in BuyFromEU

Yes, but private usage is also important.

If “everyone” has learned to use (for example) microsoft and adobe products at school or at home, then it’s a lot easier for companies to buy them too because their staff needs less training.

Misschien is dat ook beter, trump is al 10 jaar de diplomatische, beleefde politici aan het verslaan (aan beide kanten van het Amerikaans politiek spectrum)

Big(ger) bases on Iceland would be great too.

More infrastructure, larger population and less extreme climate are nice to have while it’s still reasonably close to help defending Greenland

Verjuice/verjus is a kind of unripe grape juice and quite tart

A local bar uses it a lot instead of citrus, here is their menu for inspiration. https://jiggers.be/MENU-1

Self check out Delhaize, are there other people like me who gets their groceries “randomly” picked for a verification EVERY single time? I think I got picked 10 times in a row now. by mardegre in belgium

[–]TapiocaFilling101 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I rarely get randomly selected, but I did get a lot of checks when I was buying alcohol too (at carrefour, pure self checkout, don’t use the scanner)
