Biden backs Starmer’s bid to renegotiate Brexit and bring UK closer to EU
  • Misleading title. Brexit will not be renegotiated, it's over and done with. The relation between the UK and the EU will always be an evolving matter (like the relation of the EU and any other country including its members), bit Brexit is done, the UK is out and that's the new premise of any discussion and evolution of the relation.

    Romanian president on Schengen: "A bit depressing" to hear same story again and again from Vienna
  • Austria is not applying Schengen in some of its borders currently, therefore should not have the right of veto. Instead it should be questioned if Austria should be allowed to continue in Schengen considering that it's the number 1 country closing Schengen borders on a regular basis.

    By Cutting Meat and Milk Consumption in Half, We Could Substantially Reduce Deforestation
  • Sorry about your dog. But your example only highlights a tabu issue in these discussions, the negative impact that having a pet has. They consume meat, packaged food, are driven around, attack wild fauna (cats especially) etc. Pets is one of the items everyone should cut, but they're only becoming more common, like SUVs.

  • Cars Have Robbed Us of Identity.
  • The person under an abusive situation easily loses the car key to the abuser.

    Ambulances get stuck all the time in congestioned cities and that's a problem.

    A car should never be someone's night shelter, that person is homeless in that case. Houses, not cars, can solve the problem.

    Want to do a special trip where car is the most convenient option? You can rent one out. If you only use a car a few times a year, buying one is a terrible waste of money and street space.

    Menos de dois terços dos portugueses compraram livros no último ano, indica um novo estudo, mas os números estão a subir, principalmente por conta dos jovens, que continuam a impulsionar o setor. Apesar dos indicadores positivos, Portugal mantém-se como o país que menos lê na Europa — ainda assim, o...

    Chicago Sues Kia And Hyundai After Over 7,000 Cars Stolen Last Year
  • As far as I know these anti-theft measures they demand are optional in Europe and you pay extra for them. If crime is low is not such an issue not having them. So maybe Chicago should bet on reducing crime instead?

  • France to spend €200m destroying wine as demand falls
  • The retirees don't last so long (sorry), but overtourism is indeed a problem. Finding the right balance is the secret but clearly our politicians are not aiming for that.. but in fairness, tourism was fantastic for many years to promote Porto's renewal. But now it's time to put a break on it but no one is interested in that :/

  • Chicago Sues Kia And Hyundai After Over 7,000 Cars Stolen Last Year
  • As an European I'm extremely confused by this news as well.. so Chicago has a high crime problem and the city's solution is to sue Asian carmakers? Sorry but this only makes sense in the US, I guess..

    PS: maybe Hyundai should also sue Chicago city for failing to curb crime, a failure that leads to many car thefts?

  • France to spend €200m destroying wine as demand falls
  • You can buy very decent wine for less than 3€/bottle in any Portuguese supermarket 😅

  • [image] Both cars fit the same amount of people
  • Touched a nerve, did I? I would gladly ban horse trailers or leisure boats as well by the way. A small sacrifice to avoid human extinction. But yeah, blind selfishness will definitely kill us. Your petty luxuries are more important I guess.

  • TIL in Portugal you can get an unlimited national rail pass for €49 🚂
  • I think "unlimited" is a way too big word considering all the limitations, I'm not even sure what's left after these:

    Unlike Germany’s identically priced travel pass, however, the Portuguese ticket is not available on buses or on intercity trains such as the Alfa Pendular, Intercidades, InterRegional and Internacional services.

    It is also not valid for urban networks in Porto, Lisbon and Coimbra.

    Where is Portugal’s €49 rail pass valid? The new national train pass can be used on most regional services around the country, but there are a couple of excluded areas.

    Both the Alentejo Litoral and the Coimbra area are not participating in the scheme.

    This means the pass is not valid on routes including Régua-Pocinho (Douro Line), Coimbra-Figueira da Foz (suburban Coimbra), Pinhal Novo-Évora and Pinhal Novo-Vila Nova da Baronia (Alentejo Line), and Pinhal Novo-Tunes (Southern Line).
