    Home ownership is and would continue be taxed in box 1, so that’s not even superficially the reason for carving out real estate. Box 3 on real estate only come in play for home 2+,…

    Border guard was wrong. UK used passenger records from transport companies to determine when someone left the country, not face recognition. They do however use face recognition wh…

    Something like ten years ago Facebook messenger would by default add the user’s location to every message visible to the recipient. And even worse, unless you disabled this feature…

    Agreed that it makes no sense to restrict that kind of road to 30km/h, but to be fair most cities that have moved to 30km/h would have excluded that road. Even Amsterdam left the m…

    Maybe I’m missing something but then what is 30 days after Christmas? 25389?

    Interesting, never heard of this service being provided here (EU), not even sure it would be legal, but makes sense. Apparently they get the information from credit card/mortage ap…
