I am as well

Not everything is about the US though

Plus, if they sell to people in the EU they need to charge VAT anyway on the shipping. Some exception apply, but you as a person will not run into them.

As somebody who works as an accountant: The web version of Excel is shit and the desktop version is far superior.

Things like extensions, power query among other things just exist in the desktop app and not in the web app.

I switched to Linux Mint saldy I need Windows for some things so I dual booted. Got sick of that, so now I have a VM with Tiny11.

But it has been miles better than gmail for decades.

There is a difference on how the holiday season go based on religion, but also based on country. Like f.e. in The Netherlands the gifts are more traditionally exchanged on the 5th of December because we have Sinterklaas then, which is basically based on the same Saint Nicholas.

Living in The Netherlands means I can check out with iDeal (will become Wero) and often even without an account.

With Amazon I have to check I am on the right store to get actually normal priced shipping (3-5 euro instead of 20-30 euro). If they have something on Amazon.com I can only pay with a creditcard instead of all the normal options other versions of Amazon offer. The only thing Amazon does correct and most other North American stores don’t is add the tax to the price which they are supposed to do.

Same in Europe when buying from North America stores. Listed price is 100 USD so I assume it will be 100 EUR, by the time I received the item I have paid close to 160 EUR and often you need to spend going through filling in your information before it gives you that total price and sometimes they unfairly compete with their prices before tax with other stores with prices after tax. Which is illegal, but hey/

In most places the tax is included in the price and often mandatory because nearly every country in the world can figure out a way to do exactly that.

A lot of webshops in The Netherlands refund the full purchase price including shipping and the bigger once also pay for the return shipment.

Uhm no? In most freaking countries you would have more money to spend during your school years or just after it. Either because school is cheap/free or it’s cheaper because you can continue living at home, etc etc

No fucker, America voted for Trump.
