You know I think it is SO important that every election has more than two parties/options on the ballot.

Because if you dont, one party can simply distinguish itself from te other by being more extreme. Where this leads you can currently see with the Republicans.

As soon as you have more than two, parties need to have their own agenda to distinguish themselves, and this "vote so tue other doesn't win" thing that is currently going on for almost a decade fades away.

Sure populism will always be there but it has to compete with actual agendas.

Yeah, you can see that organic maps is sadly not there yet in terms of driving-interface, but hopefully its getting there soon.

Afaik the app is far younger than magic earth and for what it is its super good. I'm so stoked to see how organic maps is gonna develop in the coming years

Or like an osm-based map that shows them then you could easily take it international

What does served mean in this context?

As a non-native speaker I don't quite get the joke I'm afraid (I would love to laugh about it though).

As stated in the article, Norway already pledged to give 4 times that. The news is that they're adding more. They'll also send fighter jets.

My point was rather how crazy expensive these things are, not to diminish the importance of donations from Norway

Sorry for sounding dumb but does 93mln mean 9 air-defense missiles or 90? Or is it spent entirely different?
