I’m not arguing what the market ought to be like. I just don’t agree with your definitions.
No, it’s not. A monopoly is a market situation in which a single entity controls the supply of a product or service. A government can be a monopolist. For instance in many countries the government owns the railway company.
You’re describing regulation. That’s a whole different topic.
A monopoly is not when a technology is more popular than another technology.
So apparently my girlfriend thinks it’s weird my family keeps a knife in the toilet. You know, just in case it doesn’t flush down. I thought everybody did this.

What else can the EU do? They can’t force an American company to follow EU regulation outside of the EU.
Edit: oh damn I read your comment wrong. I read it as “It’s pretty sad that the EU seems to only care about the privacy of its own citizens.” To that I’d say get your own regulation, but that’s exactly what you called for. Nvm then.
If I go every other day I will be in the shower 4-5 times a week, is that over showering?
I typically shower for 60-90 minutes, I push my self and raise the temperature each week.
Nobody’s transportation and time is going to cost less than €0.21 per kilometer, unless you’re riding a bicycle and view that activity as adding value.
For anyone else, it’s a lump sum kind of thing. You’re compensated for transportation, but you still probably want to live relatively close to your workplace because there is nothing to gain from living far away.
I’m sure you can defraud the Dutch tax office but they’ll fuck you over big time, and I’m not aware of any such thing going on.
There’s even a genetic disease specific to Urk. Half of the people who have it are from the the former island and as I understand it the others have their roots there.
Where I live (NL) €0,21 per kilometer (untaxed) is typical. Some get a cross country public transit pass which can be used for unlimited private trips or even car which can also be used for private trips, though for cars this is seen as income and taxed. But with tax incentives for EVs it isn’t too bad.
There are also companies that pay something like €600-1500 per month mobility budget (taxed as income if not used, partly tax free is used for transportation options named above or KMs.) This is more typical in higher paying jobs of course.
It’s less typical to see time paid.
I use Sync now but it’s just not quite RIF. I’m sorry.
Three Cheers for Tildes is closer (same dev) but Lemmy is a bit busier.
My doctor friend almost lit our shared apartment on fire after lighting a candle near the curtains. The smartest people can do the dumbest shit.
If he hadn’t seen the curtains light up that would for sure have been a house fire.
Ah, damnit. I guess I’ve accidentally gone full right wing there.
I’ll get a social welfare benefits which won’t be a lot but I can probably make do for a while. I’ll also get a medical insurance benefit which covers roughly 2/3 of my insurance so I’ll have to pay something like €40/month myself. Those benefits will help me pay the €385 max yearly out of pocket for the care I’ll need, and be done with it. That’s not to say being in this situation is great in the Netherlands, but I won’t go into debt and I won’t lose my home (gov’t guarantees mortgage to bank) and I won’t have to continue to pay back my 0% interest student loans.
We’re lucky. But make sure to vote.
Penny wise pound foolish. The only way not to go through the paper is to go through the rolls.
