Presto.

@MagellanQuest That would be because the various governments who have been in charge since then have failed to even attempt to go in a different direction (namely, the one that does NOT rely on plentiful cheap labour to work, i.e. something similar to the post-WW2 consensus).

[Daniele Gatti @firebat792]

@FrankRundatz Sounds like it's just a euphemism for "dumping" then.

[Daniele Gatti @firebat792]

@ultimora_pol Ai coloni sionisti basterebbe restituire il maltolto (cioè tutta la Palestina) ai suoi legittimi proprietari (cioè i palestinesi) tornandosene nei propri veri paesi di origine, i libanesi non hanno questa facoltà.

[Daniele Gatti @firebat792]

@Breen @blixberrie Yup, that's what I believe too, the "watered down" hypothesis referred to those from the motherland who despise the "hybrid" culture. For my part, I'm mostly curious when I meet people with Italian ancestry who were born elsewhere (not just the US, either).

[Daniele Gatti @firebat792]

@colinrtalbot Yep. If you wear it for ceremonial reasons only, you might as well carry a replica with a dull, plastic "blade". There should be no exception for whatever reason (same goes for face coverings btw).

[Daniele Gatti @firebat792]

@whitepizzaolla Apples and oranges: this looks like the outskirts of a city, whereas comparable "suburban" European areas are actually small-to-medium towns in commuter belts, where most people live in detached or semi-detached houses or large apartments with easy access to amenities.

@frncsc_cnt Il cosiddetto centro-"sinistra" (e niente, fa già ridere così) non può permettersi di farlo, dato che da alcuni decenni continua a promuovere politiche di deflazione salariale più o meno esplicita (privatizzazioni/liberalizzazioni, liberismo, moneta unica ecc.)

[Daniele Gatti @firebat792]

@Jennyjinx Daily shopping is great for fresh food (meat, fish, veggies, bread etc) but you definitely don't want to do that for frozen food, bulky non-perishables and non-food items like detergents etc, so you need local shops AND conveniently accessibile supermarkets to shop comfortably.

[Daniele Gatti @firebat792]

@hhhjjj_gggg @MartinPolanyi You could say the same thing for a great many Brits in Spain (or Germans on Lake Garda for that matter), this is hardly unique.

[Daniele Gatti @firebat792]

@aramh The OP was about passports, which are more of a hassle and usually more expensive to get than a national ID card.

[Daniele Gatti @firebat792]

@farazamiruddin That's all well and good, but for non-perishables/detergents etc you'd still want to drive to a big shop that have better pricing and more choice. Ditto for specialty items that might not be available at all in your local shops.

[Daniele Gatti @firebat792]

@o_scarlat @ArisakaAya "Convenient", it bloody ain't. Got stuck with one of those while renting in London years ago, couldn't change to a normal billing contract as the landlord didn't want it, there was no way to top up online or any sort of alert system to tell you you were running out of credit.

[Daniele Gatti @firebat792]

@benbawan Yeah, too bad ALL of NGEU will cost Italy way more than it's worth, given we're net EU budget contributors: the common debt portion will have to be serviced (and presumably wound down at some point), the rest repaid via "special" taxes et al.

[Daniele Gatti @firebat792]

@TheMaleGazer Yeah, it would definitely be worse on the upper floors (especially when you're not on the last floor). Glad you had a nice time in the city anyway, I'm still exploring it myself after moving here 3 years ago.

[Daniele Gatti @firebat792]

@SicilianoSum Moralmente sono d'accordo, legalmente parlando però se l'arruolamento è avvenuto fuori dai confini italiani non è un reato.

[Daniele Gatti @firebat792]

@TheMaleGazer Yeah but if it was on in the other rooms/the hallways etc it must have had a knock-on effect on your room temp, which is the only logical explanation I can think of for that kind of temperature difference.

[Daniele Gatti @firebat792]

@TheMaleGazer Jeez, that's dumb. I live near Rome, it's not uncommon to have mild winters, and when it happens you are in fact allowed to leave the heat turned off (which would have been more than enough to make the rooms comfortable in your situation).

[Daniele Gatti @firebat792]

@PositivistWitch @GroovySciFi I don't think it would make much of a difference, there is no automatic degree equivalence even between EU states, especially when it comes to legal requirements like these.
