Frankfurt is indeed full of cars. Still the public transport is full of people. By the way, I was faster from Offenbach center to Frankfurt center on my mountain bike than a Ferrari that really rushed from traffic light to traffic light.
I do play games - sometimes - Deus Ex 3 right now. But never on the phone - it is just not comfortable for that. Emails and the browser are different, been using these on my phone ever since Windows Mobile 2003.
You have stated that you just have used Pascal in some college courses. This is not what I would call "experienced". I've been writing code in both Pascal and C for many years, Pascal is more readable hands down. C looks like a character salad in comparison. It was clearly meant to be used on teletype terminals where you had to be sparse with letters. That was fair for the day, but we are living in the 21th century now.
Engine noise, especially when the PTO is activated, is far louder than beeping. You can hear it clearly when a hybrid garbage truck picks up garbage. It is almost silent and the beeper seems far less obnoxious.
Let me know when Sweden's health insurance is welcomed by German doctors.
They are. EHIC is, in fact, honoured in the whole EU for treatments that need to be done while being in another EU country. The insurance can also cover for a non-acute treatment abroad (for example cheaper dentists in the Czech Republic), but one has to get an acknowledgment from the insurance first.
You want to fix healthcare, make the price paid the same for everyone, and pricing is upfront (as can be allowed). Let the user know exactly what the Knee Scope is going to run before surgery.
Back to the 19th century? Universal health care was introduced because the kind of healthcare you describe didn't work.
You are talking about the low level corruption, that certainly isn't very common in the more developed countries (except for southern Europe, obviously). The high level corruption thrives everywhere, though.
Taxi driving is, in fact, different from personal driving. Taxi drivers drive much more than personal drivers, so the probability of an accident is higher. And since they are drivers for hire, they are responsible for the passengers. Hence the different license.
So, what exactly does the government gain? The processing fees for issuing the commercial driver license? They aren't that high, the fees usually just cover the costs of the pencil pushers.
What if he is? Free market forces can suck very much. They lead to bubbles, crashes, front runnings and all the rest of the misery that is associated with them.
Nortel used to be worth 400 billions. Two years later only 5 billions. It still was the same company, just not as overvalued anymore. Market capitalisation doesn't show how much an enterprise is actually worth or whether it does something right or not. It only shows what the speculators currently think.
This was, in fact, a proof of concept. Freight train between China and Germany is already regular. Trains are quite efficient. They are also way cleaner than ships, especially when using electric power.
And this is a statement born out of ignorance of what peak oil actually is. It is maximal sustainable production. Tar sands won't ever get you over a peak because the oil from tar sands is difficult to extract, so it won't be possible to extract as much oil from tar sands, as there was extracted from easy to claim oil wells at their peak. You won't be possibly able to extract as much oil from the difficult sources as you had extracted it from the easy ones. Even if you get your oil off world, you certainly won't be able to get 80 millions of barrels a day from space. Even if one very distant day in the future the transport capacity would enable humankind this feat, the humankind would not need oil by then anymore.
Supply and demand function is not magical, as you imply. Sometimes there is just no more supply, no matter how high the demand is. And sometimes the supply costs have risen so high that it would be way cheaper to find an alternative solution. Thus in any of these cases oil production would not ever reach the erstwhile peak.
USA hit their peak oil in the 1970ies in fact. Russia reached peak oil about a year ago. When the ISIS situation is over, then the cheap oil from Iraq will also be gone. Oil price will go up long term, even when they are political driven fluctuations right now.

Well, except for BMW, all the brands you have listed belong to the same company. That might be the explanation.

Not exactly failed. Russia still owns a big chunk of Karelia.
And all of them are used for 3d games? I don't think so.
I own four Android phones. Not a single one is used for gaming in any way.

I had a dual pentium motherboard with eisa slots once, made by Asus iirc. Used to sit in a server of a German content management software company.

Of course you can - in Braille.
There is always Sigma with their own Foveon
Correct me if i am wrong, but doesn't the "reflex" part indeed imply a mirror?

Look like it is difficult to walk in a car-obsessed country. Even the police finds that strange.

On the russian side they use blue electrical tape, not duct tape.
Only on the US side. The russian modules use CO2, if I remember correctly.

Aren't hydraulics that are pressurised with gas actually pneumatics?

you don't need a driving license for a horse.
