Yes, this is regularly seen throughout Europe for years.

You can buy such tags in bulk from China, they are very cheap at any scale really (and their use isn't limited to just pricing).

But yes, I think some EU countries already have laws preventing price changes throughout the day or (to some extend) price differences between eg countryside and cities.
I think there should be an EU directive for this tho.

Yes.
And there is absolutely no way a neurotypical person can comprehend that.

That's why a crisis (a "stressful situations" by normies definitions) calms us down and/or we continue to function normally. And normies just panic. And even when it's obvious to us what is best to do next, we have to wait for them to calm tf down to even understand what we are saying. But by then the advantage is lost.

Yes, every day.

The only hopes are:

  • getting enough adrenaline from stress to end the cycle (super harmful in the long run)
  • completely let it go no matter the importance & hope that randomly without thinking about it and doing something else (perhaps being stuck in the same loop but for another topic) I'll just be ok to immediately drop everything and just start executing the first step ... then it usually goes on ok after that
  • get someone to help me, then think about how much of a drag Im being on their personal life, alienate them "for their own good and happiness", have a copy of them in my mind for years to come hopefully the example will sometimes magically help me with some current issue

I was not explaining my logic nor my beliefs, just describing my smol sample (introvert!), as a btw fun fact.

But I was under the impression that there is no distinguishable difference between which OSs use programmes vs non-programmers (and the other way around).
Perhaps bcs I fail to se any specific connection between the two. But yes, my logic would be that both types use and are used by both to roughly the same extent.

(Haha, exactly same experience with relatives - forced them on Linux, never had anything non-trivial to fix since then.)

Wait ... is there a perception (or reality?) that most Linux users are programmers?

I'm an introvert, but all programmers I know use Windows (and badly in the sense they aren't power users).
