Huawei har really taken a nose dive. Good phones, but after the whole debacle, virtually nobody in Western world buys them

Well.... It's not "Norway has a map of murders", but a newspaper in Norway has made a map of murders in Norway.

This is probably not in the same categories as other experiences, buuuut the Guinness museum in Dublin the evening before st Patrick's day was quite fun!

There's a large bar at the top/end of the museum and a band was playing and 100 or so people ended up in a conga line.

I think I had 4 tasty Guinness during the museum tour sand countless at the museum bar😅

Exactly. It is potential debt and it goes against getting new loan/debt from banks. No matter if you have used the credit card or not. The banks look at the available limit on an your credit cards or available credit and view that as debt when they calculate how much they can loan you.

In Norway having loads of credit cards is negative for getting a house loan as it is potential debt that goes against your payment ability for the house loan.

Meaning we do have a credit score system for getting loans and more stuff on various credit solutions, but credit cards works against larger loans.

Which can be a pain in the ass when you want to buy a house/apartment and have credit cards that might deny you the last bit of money to win the bidding war...

Early termination fees are not that horrible. They can give you a monthly cost where some of the costs for installing it might be distributed over they contact period. Fine and ok

But i should still be able to cancel my contract without jumping through 11 loops and queues.

If you sign up for a given contract, that's what you have agreed upon. It sucks if you only have one option and they can set a ridiculous price. So if you want to regulate pricing, that's a different matter. Cancelling is something else altogether.

I hope it was a genious piece of code that was miles ahead of what it replaced.

And still it got rejected 😄

Right. So it's a Schroedinger's quote...😑

But thanks for pointing out what was obvious for others

The fuck? Where is your limit then to purchase power Vs donating to those less fortunate?

I mean, if 40k USD is your limit, what about housing? Boat? Would it be ok to have ten 4k cars? Two 30k cars?

Can you rationalize drinking that imported beer last weekend when you could have given those 15 bucks to a homeless guy on the street?

I mean, arbitrary set a value point for a car as excessive creates more problem for you and your ideal then not having that limit. At least the Buddhist monks who give away all their worldy goods to focus on meditation are consistent.
