What are /r/YUROP's favorite Products & Services?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

I checked how the word "Europe" translates to all the 24 official Euro languages:

If we group that by the name:

I may write a regular expression matching all of these words:

(E[iuvw]r[oó]+p+[ae]|An Eoraip|Ευρώπη|Европа)

Would that make a better flair?

I decided to include An Eoraip, Ευρώπη, and Европа separately, as it would be pointless to try to force it to the first sub-expression, and would dilute it.

You may see it works on this site, by pasting the table with names to the bottom box and the expression I wrote to the top one. Names of Europe will highlight.

DKK is sort of pegged to the euro in an agreement. Over 10 years the exchange rate is nearly constant https://www.xe.com/currencycharts/?from=DKK&to=EUR&view=10Y. Same with Bulgaria and Croatia (since 2020).

Qwant is much more privacy-secure than DDG. Slant is an automated website, I would rather recommend reading an actual review.

But in essense Qwant is a fully independent search engine. It doesn't always give perfect results but well enough for daily use. I've used it now for 2 years. Some advantages are that Qwant is more privacy respecting than DDG.

Although anonymized, DuckDuckGo still sends your search query to other companies such as Google. DDG also uses Amazon as server infrastructure and is hosted in the US, which makes your data liable to any law enforcement pulling the Patriot Act card. Qwant has their own self-hosted servers in the EU so your data is protected by GDPR.

They also have Qwant Maps (https://www.qwant.com/maps/) and is working on Qwant Mail. My only problem with Qwant is that the "News" section when searching doesn't seem to work if you live outside France.

Using DeepL.com:

> The test included the participation of a Boeing CH-47 Chinook helicopter from the BHELTRA V Transport Helicopter Battalion of the Land Army Air Force (FAMET), which has been responsible for raising from CEDEA the demonstrator full of measuring equipment and filming cameras to move it as external cargo to a segregated maritime area under INTA control.

> Once recovered from the water, the Miura 5 stage has been moved to PLD Space facilities for review. Once recovered from the water, the Miura 5 stage has been moved to PLD Space facilities for review. Positioned in stationary flight at an altitude of 5 kilometers (16.500 ft) over the Atlantic Ocean and at a distance of 6 kilometers from the coast, the FAMET helicopter has released in free fall the demonstrator made of aluminum and 15 meters long and 1.4 meters in diameter.

> During its descent of about 4 minutes, the electronic systems located inside the demonstrator activated the deployment of three parachutes in a timed and controlled sequential way, to stop its impact on the water up to a speed of 10 meters per second, avoid its breakage and make possible its recovery. CEDEA also followed the trajectory of the test by means of optronic systems and radars.

> Once in the water, a tugboat and a team of divers have approached the demonstrator and the parachutes, have secured them to prevent sinking and with the help of the ship's crane, have lifted them on board for transport to the nearby port of Mazagón. From there, both the demonstrator and the measurement equipment and parachutes were transported the next day by road to PLD's headquarters in Elche (Alicante) for exhaustive study.

But they’ve changed to USB-C on their own.

Just not for iPhones. And there, most people only need charging cables. I’ve checked and a five pack of durable cables with different lengths from 1m to 3m costs about 12€: https://www.amazon.de/gp/product/B09GTYXVRK/ How many of these will the average customer buy? They usually last for many years.

The statistics aren't completely clear on this, but there's some limited evidence that Left-hand traffic is safer than RHT.

The theory is that most people aren't just right-hand dominant, they're actually right-eye dominant too, and have better reaction times against right-sided stimuli. Since LHT places oncoming vehicles (the highest danger) in the strongest part of the visual field, drivers following LHT rules react faster against head-on collisions, and are therefore safer.

 

To my knowledge, the original claim appears in Road Accidents: Prevent or Punish, J.J Leeming, but as its behind a paywall I have to confess I've never read it myself.

His degree of earnest starry-eyed faith in the stated ideals of the Revolution and its major is truly something that beggars belief. Dude believed in the movement more than its leaders did. How do you not love a guy like that, who looks with his own eyes at the mess you are and yet only sees the best of what wish you could be? Lafayette is the OG himbo.

Sure thing, here you go!

It's not a template :) it's a couple of maps (world + europe) that i got from Amazon.

Here's the link if your're interested!

I went ahead and cobbled together a slightly less fancy looking version for myself using Amazon's self publishing service in case anyone wants a copy!

My cat pays zero attention to the cheap stuff from the dollar tree and the grocery store. He goes absolutely crazy for this

it's almost as if you've never heard of personal heaters. The whole "installation" and "refitting" process is this: buy one in any store, come home, plug it in in the grid. Wow, so hard, so expensive.

The German government doesn't even have to pay for them (individual households buy them, not the government), it would just need to increase the electricity output - exactly where nuclear plants would be useful.

Treat it like a sentence and deepl treats it like a sentence.

if you fancy reading about codfish history, I'd highly recommend you to grab this book -- not sure if it was ever translated, tho.

I have a few years old french mustard with qualities of alien venom. It is extremely aromatic, fermented a bit but is still in really good condition.

Not at all.

yes! i’m sure that’s how the measurement for tablespoons started, but i guess at some point they decided to standardize.

and lol i don’t do either of those things. i have a tablespoon measurer...? like this: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B013FW3AKG/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_fabt1_Ux8UFbBM3HS3R

Huh looks like some phones are using it already, most of new Snapdragon phones with Android 7 and higher should have support for Galileo.

Unfortunately my Samsung with Exonos CPU that is sold in Europe, Russia and Africa, sometimes US (Snapdragon is in the rest of the world), appears to have only Glonass and GPS support. Samsung makes great phones but sometimes I'm so disappointed with them it's hard to describe even.

Link to the app I checked this with: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.android.gpstest

Localization systems that your phone picks up currently are shown as a list on "status" tab/page.

Report back, I'm wondering if it's Samsung being assholes or is it generally neglected by other manufacturers too. Would be sad if that's the case.
