Yeah the only overhead lines I've seen in northern Europe are the 25000+ volt lines that connect some transformer stations.

It sounds like you need to pay someone a lot of money for that.
Not really. It requires a pneumatic tool, but that's smaller and easier than lugging a pole, and faster too. All of the internet providers here shoot fiber cables like that, especially in areas of the cities with protected buildings and roads. And pole installation in those places is a big no-no, so they all just use pneumatics everywhere, as they already have the tools. And because of competition, prices are quite low, and installers only have to take the certification once.
There is also the middle option, where you dig two small shafts to the appropriate depth, then use pneumatics to "shoot" the cable from one shaft to the other through the ground, below roads, driveways etc, and then connect it.
Now refresh my memory, who became president close to a decade ago?
Probably someone who will bluster about this and increase the tariffs from those countries.
Long before then Earth will become uninhabitable.
Actually Earth will not exist at all by then. In about 5-6 billion years our sun will run out of Hydrogen fuel, and will turn into a red giant, which will make Earth barren and without life. After another billion years in that state the sun will shrink, only to ignite massive amounts of Helium, and grow even larger in size than before, swallowing Earth. Finally it will shrink to a white dwarf star, and will still be cooling down when the galaxy crash may or may not happen in 10 billion years.
if that even grammatically correct?
"the orange man"
lately I heard the name "The Fanta Felon"
Haters just gotta hate, no matter what reality is.
I hate child molestation, and the reality is that The Vatican protects child molesters.
I bow down to your first hand knowledge of this,
When he was pope he met with and officially apologized to many victims.
While still protecting the creation of more victims, and preventing justice from being done by protecting the identities of child rapists. The nonces' best friend apologizing to their victims is a perfect symbol of all that the Catholics stand for.
Haters just gotta hate, no matter what reality is.
When he was pope he met with and officially apologized to many victims. Interpret that, and the laws the cardinals passed.
If even one guy was banished for such a transgression, it's worth it.
How many priest have had these 'severe consequences'
it's all about protected the Vatican not the children.
Even if that is just one, then the new laws are successful. For nine years now, offenders would be thrown out of the church, after a due process investigation.
Another pedophile protector will be elected soon.
Actually he did a lot of work to put frameworks in place, that it has severe consequences for clergy who do that kind of thing.
I also was a bit pessimistic coming into the comments, fearing snarky remarks, but was also positively surprised. He abandoned much of the opulence other popes would make use of, like a penthouse apartment and a new Mercedes, instead living in guest accommodation, and driving an old Fiat. I'm not Catholic, barely even a Christian, but I have a lot of respect for the man, and what he wanted to do, in face of resistance from many of his cardinals.
... so a more accurate summary would be "world's oldest still-in-orbit satellite"
Seriously? What on earth was the UK's equivalent of the NSA doing
Perhaps they were suppressed by a certain president, who believes his opinions is equal to international law.
