- Comment on Every morning 1 day ago:
When I was working night shift (until very recently), I worked 6pm-6am and I would wake up around 1pm. Then after work I’d immediately go to sleep. I kind of preferred it tbh. I didn’t get as much dread about waking up and going to work when I had 4 hours of free time first.
However I only sleep 6 hours I’m sure that’s not great.

With the Geneva convention on Road Traffic they must recognize it, at least for visitors. However you are probably right if OP tried to move there and get a local license, they’d need to retest.

It’s not toooooo hard. But you will need a good little bit to get the feel for it.
And I don’t know how hilly Romania is but the first time your stall out on an incline you will feel embarrassed and likely honked at. And it will be all the harder to recover cause now you’re stressed about it.

This is so obvious I don’t understand why it needs highlighting. Nobody here is suggesting you cannot have stuff.

- Comment on I need a cheap part to fix a bread machine that's under warranty. "We can send you a new machine." 3 weeks ago:
That’s fair. Thing I didn’t like about bread makers is you can’t really get a good loaf out of them. It’s good for getting a hunk of bread to put some butter on and that’s great, but not so great for sandwiches. Top doesn’t brown as well

Get some bread pans and some elbow grease.
A stand mixer would be ideal but it’s really not so bad to knead bread by hand.

Well then your Internet provider is blocking it, or someone on your network has setup some kind of filter.
What happens if you click “visit anyway”?
You could probably also change your DNS provider. You’d have to look up how to do that for your router.
- Comment on Server upgrades complete! 4 weeks ago:
It appears whatever network you are using is blocking the site. I’m guessing it’s a school/work network? The logged on browser looks like it has some of the site saved from before but
If this is your home network you need to contact your ISP. But looking up “platformx communications” I strongly suspect you’re on some kind of organization’s network.
They often don’t like uncommonly visited sites, odd TLDs (.club) etc.

Hmmm I just logged out and back in. It’s possible it was down for some reason briefly. I’ll look into it but you should be able to get in

You can define the start of an infinite series, just not the end. (Except as ∞ or -∞). You could also have an infinite set that extends both ways.
0 to ∞ contains an infinite amount of numbers. But so does 11 to ∞.
More filled rooms do not “appear”, the rooms just go on without end. These is no “last” guest who moves into some previously unoccupied room. It’s just… endless. Infinite.
It really only makes sense in abstract. Our minds aren’t built to deal with infinity.

Thanks, I get it now!
- Comment on He's gonna be walking for a little bit 4 weeks ago:
Infinite hotel has infinity guests. You have all the guests move down 10 rooms. Rooms 1-10 are now free. Zero to Infinity and 11 to infinity are equally infinity, since numbers extend into infinity.
In the same manner if you have one sit of infinite guests occupy all the even numbered rooms, you will still have an infinite number of rooms open, because the set of all odd (and even) numbers extends infinitely. You could have the first set of infinite guests take each hundredth room (100, 200, 300, etc), then the next set take 99, 199, 299, etc. in that way you could fit 100 sets of infinite guests.

Well for some items it’s definitely easy. Laptop for example just say it’s your laptop. No box or receipt you brought it with you. But it has to be like 1. And it’s still illegal.
- Comment on [deleted] 5 weeks ago:
Yes. But only one or two things at a time. It’s illegal but like you said if you just say you had it when you entered Canada you’ll probably get away with it.
If you come over with 100 laptops in your trunk you will almost certainly be forced to pay import duties on them.
