Really wanted to go for this, as it's European, but they don't have good calendar support...
Re:Norway to hit 100% electric vehicle sales by early next year on Wednesday October 06, 2021 @06:14PM (#28779162)
Last I heard, they actually have so much excess power that they're selling it to the UK.

Norway-specific, but https://norgeskart.no/ is insanely detailed for hiking, skiing, etc.
Re:Facebook account now required to login to Oculus devices on Wednesday August 19, 2020 @10:18AM (#24210602)
Palmer Lucky did not create Oculus. He was a Masters student at USC and 3D printed a pretty case for a prototype developed by an international research project. I would know, because I've personally tested one of the early prototypes ...in Hamburg, Germany. He took it and ran and came up with some BS about having created it from scratch all by himself in his parents' garage in Silicon Valley. He's a liar and a fraud.
Re:Taking stock of startup innovation in the Netherlands on Monday July 06, 2015 @07:50AM (#9838380)
One thing I noticed while touring the university in Eindhoven was that students are pretty much brainwashed to serve the lighting industry. I really disagreed with the sentiment that there was any so-called "innovation" to be made in the field. This might sound ridiculous, but if The Netherlands wants to create actual change, they'll need to move beyond LEDs.
