Zo her en der zie ik de nodige commentaren op de manier waarop Nederland de kwestie van 'meer militairen' heeft opgelost. Maar als je alle alternatieven naast elkaar zet, is dat leger aan partimers zo gek nog niet.
Allereerst krijg je er bijna 2x zoveel handjes voor als bij fulltimers.
De 'binding met de maatschappij' wordt per groter als veel van die militairen ook een burger functie hebben.

Did I mention the X4 lately? ^^
I recently concluded that Crosspoint could benefit from a few more customizations and more font size options offered in Papyrix. It turns out that Inx might be the firmware to fill the gap. It also displays your current reading time, along with the number of pages and chapters—quite a nice feature!
