50c isn’t really a safe temperature for food, but I guess some places do it.

The Swedish media reported it as “de-icing mode”. If you have a large freezer in a store, you can’t defrost it quickly enough with passive airing, especially with the top-loading freezers.

But he’s also half Scottish apparently… Perhaps it’d be an acceptable solution for everyone if Scotland gets one half, and Germany can get the other half?

Possibly. It’s also just as likely that the government doesn’t like you doing stuff to “their” property.

Though it’s apparently legal in the US, as long as you don’t do it for fraudulent reasons?

Because it’s easy. Just do some HTML markup and some CSS and slap some <?php inline. This is partially the same reason why there are so many horribly outdated versions “in production”.

If you lose $80,000, that’s your problem. If you lose $80,000,000,000, that’s everyone else’s problem.

Yep, a happy little American colony.

I heard about the “Dutch-American Friendship Treaty” (DAFT – very aptly named) a while back. An American citizen only needs to register a business (even a ZZP/sole proprietorship works), create a Dutch business bank account, deposit 4,500€ there, and then they get legal residency.

You don’t need to give any business plan, nor is there any point-based test (which is required for basically anyone else who wants to move to the Netherlands to start a business)… You don’t have to prove that your business is innovative, that you have any higher education, nor that you will hire any Dutch employees… As long as you register your business and deposit the required 4,500€, and that you’re an American citizen, your business is legally considered to be in the interest of the Dutch economy and you’re granted residency.

Anti-fingerprinting is a fingerprint too.
