Even though the electricity is clean here, if I use less then the clean energy is exported to less clean countries (Germany, Poland...).

I'd argue the other way around (where I live). Water supply is good, but less electricity use is always positive.

Not sure what a water saving toilet is... Almost all toilets where I live (Sweden) has two options when flushing (large or small flush).

7 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

No it isn't. A small flush is about 2 liters and the shower uses about 0.2 l/s. 10 seconds shower is more (and hot!) water than one flush.

Yeah, if you end it early you have to pay "ränteskillnadsersättning" which is usually less than remaining interest.

Alright, that's nice. We have to chose, either fixed or not and when it's fixed you can't do anything other than pay set amount.

Ouch, that's a lot. But is it fixed for 30 years? I don't think you can get that in Sweden. Maximum of 10 years afaik, an no one gets that.

Is 3.5 % for a house and 6-10 % normal in the US? We have 0.18 % interest on student loan and about 1.5 % on house loans.

Same in Sweden. And the student loan interest is 0.13 % this year :)

Increase losses, makes sense. Why not sand if you really want to make a difference? Messy?

Unless it causes a lot of heat through friction I'm guessing you wanted to say "dissolve it".

We do?! I've not noticed... I had a debt of about $20k taking the full loan that paid for all my expenses plus vacations every year.

Which is a type of polymer (aka plastic).

Not sure if troll...

Wait, is $32 a lot for a tee in the US? That's normal here, expensive ones cost like 80 USD. 10 is cheap as fuck.

And weirdly enough the word soccer comes from association. Coined by the British I think.

I've heard that you have 31 months 7 times a year, is that true?

Why are there bolts in the middle of the beams? They're not holding anything.

Good for you. My wife's period is extremely stochastic. 10-50 days with and 2 to 20 without
