The difference is from the JP version, you can’t change the region to outside JPN, console language to ENG nor can you log in using a foreign Nintendo account, that’s the part making it region locked.

Do you own a Switch 2? If so, how much is it in your region?

Brunei has a B$1000 bill, although they stopped printing it (but exists):

ATM’s don’t even disperse them, as they cap at 50€ (so in order to acquire 800€ in 500€, 200€ & 100€ notes: I had to visit a bank to withdraw in person via a teller requesting specific denominations). Will electronic stores accept 2000€ in cash for an iPhone 18 consisting of x10 200€ or x4 500€ notes?

Trump

he would end up putting himself on the bills

The closest example of this is from the Chinese Yuan, where Mao Zedong is depicted in all denominations. (So, it’ll be the same if Trump decided to replace current issued $ into a new series with him on it).

When the Burj Khalifa was first constructed there’s a flaw, they didn’t install a proper sewer system. So what happened was that “poop” trucks showed up to collect waste in which is taken to a sewage plant. That only ceased when people demanded for a pipe to be installed connecting the building to the main sewer system.

I have a 200€ (& 500€) note, but stores hesitate to accept either due to fears of being a counterfeit. Jobs don’t pay in cash anymore (as salaries are given via bank transfer), you can withdraw either by heading to a bank (in person) requesting higher denominations since most ATMs cap at 50-100€ depending on the country.

I come from a country where police training takes 2-3 years and cadets must possess a Batchelor’s degree in law or psychology. For example, in Sweden: there’s a watch dog that hold cops accountable for corruption. Since cops are meant to serve the community rather than flex hostility treating civilians as enemies.

The warrior mindset that US cops have is exacerbating the problem, as in they train cops the same manner as soldiers (which isn’t even comparable). In Europe, there’s emphasis on LE serving the community and they have actual teams specialized in mental health de-escalation.

You don’t hear stuff like “black person gets shot for holding an object” in Switzerland frequently, since that barely happens. The reason may be that the populace is homogenous (consisting of predominantly Caucasians) and less public distrust towards authorities.

drive two hours

That also adds more expenses: like gasoline, if the route they use has a gas station (fuel costs money) alongside tolls for highways (interstate) plus traffic at peak hour (not even going to discuss parking).
