Germany. Other materials are also used but the thickness is commonplace.

What caliber can go through 21cm reinforced massive concrete?

My internal walls are made of thick reinforced concrete, same as the other person who replied to you. I highly doubt a bullet would be able to penetrate them. I’d assume a brick wall would be weaker than my internal walls. People also don’t have guns lying around at home, usually. But even if that were the case, it is absolutely outlandish to assume somebody could shoot through into my apartment with their handgun.

I see. My bad. That is inconvenient indeed. My guess is that they want to promote paperless alternatives (commuter cards, digital commuter cards, credit cards where usable). More and more stations allow you to use your credit card as a commuter card, so you would neither need an IC card nor a paper ticket. They upgraded the gate where I lived in 2024. Give it a few years.

It would be nice to be able to buy paper tickets cashless, as well, though.

The current magnetic paper tickets are replaced with paper tickets with QR codes on them. Not digital QR codes on your phone. The article is misrepresenting that with the photo showing a QR code on a phone. That’s not what this is about.

You can pay your fare using an IC card that can be charged using cash or via your Japanese bank/credit card. You can also pay with your credit card directly, though I imagine not everywhere, as I’ve seen extra terminals installed for that.

Phone tickets (えきねっと) have also existed for some time. Only shinkansen and the likes, though.

This change has nothing to do with IC cards or existing phone ticket systems. Paper tickets become different paper tickets.

That is possible and has been possible for some time.

That is exactly how it works in Japan.

If all things were the same, but it was men who fell pregnant and gave birth, all things would be different.

It’s also supposedly a Russian project, which may or may not be relevant to people.

I’m no expert, but what about waste sulfur in smelting (also mentioned in the article)?

European institutions and apps should be banned from employing reCAPTCHA, Google’s Play Integrity API and Apple’s App Test API, if this is how they are to function. At the same time, Apple and Google need to be sanctioned for this approach, as I am certain that it violates fair competition laws.

Doesn’t this already exist?

Interesting ðat you don’t distinguish ðe sound in “ðe” and ðe sound in “þing”.

This particular file was apparently released in 2023 with the same faulty redactions.

That one didn’t flop though. They made minimal revisions that didn’t correct its core issues and it was passed anyway.
