    There's some redirect triggered by javascript, disable js and it'll work.

    It is much better to view cars as a yearly cost, or a per mile cost. Most people don't pay $40k up front, instead they pay $4k to $10k per year for a new car.

    For what a single car costs in taxes, insurance, fuel, and maintenance for a year your could get 5 used bicycles and a nice cargo bike trailer off amazon.

    Are you seriously comparing a $5k car to a brand new, high quality cargo bicycle? The equivalent cargo bike to a $5k car is below $500 and kids bicycles are below $100. Edit: As fo…

    So let us assume 2 adults and 3 kids. $5k for a _very nice_ cargo bike capable of transporting 1-2 kids too young to cycle on their own. $4k for _nice_ bikes for each adult. ($2k x…

    I can't even piece together how this could be true. A family probably only needs one cargo bike. An brand new _expensive_ cargo bike costs around the same as the yearly cost of a c…

    Most cargo bikes cost quite a bit less than a car though.

    Owning a car gives you a lot of freedom and flexibility but you either live in a place that requires a car every day, or one where you need it less. If your neighborhood is well pl…

    I think it is software, or at least it can be fixed in software. Which is what makes it so frustrating. My workaround is to configure the whole thing as a joystick then use JoyToKe…

    After my G13 started acting up I got myself a Razer Tartarus V2 and honestly I'm disappointed to the point I feel like I need to warn people. If you buy Razer, make sure you can re…

    I hope the plan is to read the configured date format on the system like most software out there? This really shouldn't need to be manually configured.

    This is just conspiracy stuff. 'We are Sthlm' was not judged newsworthy until the Cologne stuff. Now every potential groping at every festival is newsworthy, to the point where it'…

    Germany is free to spend their own money how they see fit. For example, by sending money to Romania via the EU budget. Perhaps Germany should instead focus on the pensioners in the…

    My grandma actually lives in Biskopsgården, I go there often. Would I let my children go to school in Sjumilaskolan? Not if I could avoid it. But I also don't worry that my grandma…

    Statistics can never simply be read from a police database or similar. It takes serious work by good researchers to compile the data and interpret it. This is also why you can't co…

    Daily Mail isn't news, it's poorly researched clickbait. Rape is horrible and I'm certain immigrants also rape, just as the natives do. But let's not kid ourselves, at least in my …

    In which European country do citizens starve because of immigration?

    I have relatives living in the USA and the news they see from Sweden seems to make them think Sweden is descending into chaos. Their imagination had run quite wild.

    Based on language classes I've taken very few students have decent study methods and the teaching methods are very archaic. The pace kept is glacial.

    I don't know your definition of "very hard" but there are certainly harder languages for a native English speaker to learn: https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Wikibooks:Language_Learnin…
