There are big e-readers available. I myself bought Onyx Boox which is about A4 size. There are even bigger ones, specifrically dedicated to CAD/tech work. so look around

Where are the mod points when I need them? There's difference between "shelter" and "apartment that costs 2000/month"

The big difference IIRC is that at any point you can just walk away from the loan, and a bank is stuck with the car you can no longer afford payments on.

Noone likes to make 2$ an hour. But if you're illegal in UK that can barelly afford food, you _will_ work for 1/4 the of minimal wage, just to not starve.

Yes. The consumer is who's winning right now, or at least used to until recently. Funny enough yes, I did detest Uber, and I took rides with them but only they were running promos/I could get a promo code, so it hurts the most :D

Uber was so cheap because it didn't make any profit on rides for a while. This changed recently, with them squezing the drivers. So now they make profit per-ride, but only because Drivers don't make any money any-more after cost of gas and amortization. I'm honestly not sure where they put all the money into right now that they are still making loses, even when they have thousands of people working for free for them

Problem is - you'll almost never get an individual project at work. You'll work with someone else. So group projects are a way to get you prepared for reality of a workplace.

The thing is, it depends how you use your phone. My phone easilly lasts over a week when I don't use it - something T28 couldn't be able to do.
Biggest drain on a battery is an LCD screen and distant second - GPU. So if you use your phone for sparse calling and occasional texting - as you'd have used T28 back then - it'll last ages since battery tech progressed so much.

On average? definitely not in USA, look up stats, you have infant mortality rate of a poor african or south asian countries. Same for cancer deaths, same for heart failures.
You mean where the richest people in the world can get best medical treatment? Switzerland I bet.
Or even knee surgery without bureaucrats deciding you're too old to allocate the centralized resources of said government healthcare? I mean if you can afford it, you can probably get a knee surgery in USA. The problem is roughly 8% of your population cannot afford it because they dont' even have insurance, and for another 10-20% insurance won't pay for it because it's "unnecessery".
Now of course you can pay in cash - but guess what, there are private hospitals in europe - you can pay in cash there to, and it'll be as good as in USA, but considerably cheaper.

So if you are rich - you're better of in Europe (you get top of the line surgeons you pay yourself), if you're middle class - you're better of in europe, and if you're poor you're better of in europe (you get a pulblic insurance).

The beauty of this is that you still can!
You can get a knee surgery in Poland for $2000-$3000 dollars. I was given same option: Pay $1000 out of my pocket for septoplasty, pick my surgeon, have it done next week, or wait a year and get it free, and done by the same surgeon that also works in public hospital.
For comparison the same septoplasty in USA costs between 6 and 30 thousand dollars, and there's that.

This is not true at all. I'm self employed so I know _exactly_ how much I pay for a public health insurance every month. It scales based on income.
For example the nose reconstruction surgery I'm about to get this year, costs less then 1000$ - comparable one in USA costs $6000-$30000 (https://www.google.com/search?q=septoplasty+cost+usa), it's nowhere near the same even when you account for exchange rates and purchasing power

The thing about the public insurance is that:
1. you don't have to participate in a death lottery. Where if you don't have insurance one bad accident ruins your life completely.
2. If you do have accident, you personally pay much less then needed for surgery - lucky bastards that walk through life with a lucky clover in a pocket pay for you.

This is mostly correct.

You have top tier publically founded universities (eg. Jagieloski University, Warsaw University). Then you have top tier private univeristies (eg. Polish-Japanese school of technology).
Then you have mid-tier regional public schools
Then you have "degree factories" - private universities that anyone who can pay can attend and complete.
Then you have very local universities politechniques that are pretty easy to get into, and they are state founded.

What I meant as a "fallback" was state founded healtcare and dentist services. I almost never use public facilities anymore - always pay for private visits.
But some things like surgeries are to expensive even for me, so I can use my public insurance (for which I pay monthly in taxes).

Poland, and we gave up socialism ... for the most part.

What seems to work the best is the combination of private and state options, where you can go to a private university, or private clinic, or private dentist (I certainly do), but if you're in a tough situation (as I was right after attending state university), you have a "free" option to fall back to.

The problem in medicine is the psychology, the moment you can walk up to someone and say: pay this, or that, or you _die_, you get 200$ epi-pens - same ones you buy in europe for 5$.
People will literally pay all the money they don't even have to save the life of theirs, or their family. At the same time people who are to poor (at that moment), to get help will suffer needlessly, and skip a prevention which is always much cheaper then curing disease that already spread.

You do realise there are countries where no-one starves, higher education is "free" (I know, I know, founded from taxes), healthcare is also state founded, end everything works much better then in USA right?
Where a knee surgery costs tax payer 1000$ instead of costing individual 200000$
Where having a accident does not mean instant bankrupcy?

They actually did, for about a week, there was posibility to order one for 35k. Then they went and hidden them from website (you could still get oen if you asked), but now they dscontinued them. So technically they did - but not really.

Not to mention the safety regulations in EU make it basically impossible to certify the self-made engine for the road.
