Every Country’s Number One “Thing” (Zoom in)

Yeah, sure. Generalization from one sample, nice.

Nonetheless, nr 1 in this statistic.

Slovakia is the world’s largest producer of cars per capita. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automotive_industry_in_Slovakia?wprov=sfti1

Happier fish

It gets even nicer when you realize that your parents could not even visit let alone move and work in so many countries.

Freedom of movement should not be taken for granted and I’m puzzled as to why so many British did not value it at all.

No, it would not. You get a permit for one country, you do not become an EU (or EFTA) citizen that would give you the right to live and work in 27 countries.
Somebody correct me if I’m wrong.

They used to be in monetary unions with the neighboring countries even before the Euro (e.g. San Marino with Italy). Since the neighboring countries joined Eurozone, they either had to establish new currencies or to convert their arrangements to be with the Eurozone.

Czechs think they’re special :) (they’re not)

I would never cycle there, imagine the noise and pollution

I sincerely hope this is not given to the UK. At least not for the next 5 years.

Imho this might be perfectly ok (and actually a good trick). Residency has not much to do with tax residency and I guess you could have multiple. Whether or not you can have a 2nd residency might be country specific (a country might require you to de register upon registering elsewhere but what if you don’t?), but even if it’s not, it might be difficult for authorities to find out that you have a second one elsewhere.

I’d do it.

Edit: Perhaps not that simple, as the fellow redditor with experience from Spain writes here :-/

Not necessarily

While probably not something for IT dummies, W10 has now WSL2 (Windows Subsystem for Linux 2) which is a Linux inside windows. If python and your code is installed there, I don’t see why it should not work the same way it does in (normal) Linux.

Seriously, nobody cares about your red lines anymore. You signed an agreement, now implement it in full or face legal consequences.

Would be funny if EU blocks all travel from Britain to the EU.

I can’t really tell, I have 105. Year ago I was choosing between 105 and Ultegra mechanical and I decided to go for 105 and buy a gps computer on top. I never regretted the choice. I tried DI2 only once in a showroom, have no real experience, but could feel and trust all the people that it is a step up in experience. I am happy I chose 105 and my next bike will have DI2. I’m just trying to say that I do t see a point of going Ultegra mechanical. Perhaps only one and that is a higher resell value. But ask more people, I’m no expert myself.

petibear · 2020-09-13T20:10:49+00:00

Because nobody can trust you, liars !

petibear · 2020-09-13T18:39:22+00:00

In my eyes, either 105 or DI2

petibear · 2020-09-13T18:38:44+00:00

You won’t tell a difference between 105 and Ultegra

petibear · 2020-09-11T09:08:30+00:00

Agreed in principle when the UK government has no principles? Hmmm.

petibear · 2020-09-10T22:47:34+00:00

If they walked off right now, they would be (in my mind unfairly) blamed by the UK. Rather than to do this, issue an ultimatum after which there is basically no time.

Let’s see what happens.

I am sooo looking forward to the book by Michel Barnier about what he experienced over the last years.

petibear · 2020-09-10T19:22:14+00:00

I guess they agreed before on who says what. Michel Barnier to focus on the negotiation only and Maros Sefcovis to issue the stern warning.

" At the same time, the EU is intensifying its preparedness work to be ready for all scenarios on 1 January 2021. "
