Even if it were, it weighs 3,4 tons empty. Most EU Citizens have drivers licenses that allow cars up to 3,5 tons max. weight, including driver, passengers and cargo.

It’s impossible to use in the EU without an actual truck driving license.

Are most insects (and shrimp for that matter) actually able to feel? I mostly heard they are best described as automatons, like low-level robots made by nature. My roomba might have higher “brain” function than a cicada, but I don’t know about newer studies.

It’s actually way older. It appeared first as official flag in 1867 for the north German federation, was adopted in 1871 to be the flag of the German Empire and was no longer in official use in1919 (albeit nationalist groups kept using it).

After that, you’re right.

Fix your boobs. You look like a picasso!

The “Socialist” in the NSDAP is only a honeypot so they could claim ground and voters who leaned socialist without much thought (“I’m a mill worker like my father before me, we have always voted socialist. Buuut that National-Thing sounds nice”). Same with the “A” which stands for “Arbeiter” (Workers).

There’s the same with the conservative party (CDU = Christdemokratische Union, Christ-Democratic Union) today. Lots of old people say “I’m a christian and that party has a C for ‘Christianity’ in its name.” In fact, their regional party in Bavaria, the CSU is more conservative. And you have three guesses what their “S” is for.

60k is about 30-35k after taxes and mandatory insurances, depending on your tax class (Single, Main earner in a marriage, …). Your questions: Yes if you’re not in a particular expensive town., No, unless you’ve got huge savings or an inheritance. Depends on what you want for your family - you might get by well if you’re living in a LCOL area, otherwise… Not so much.

It’s pretty terrific https://youtu.be/XJOoGQV0bmk?si=RVBBbpbfZAZVKb7O

I opened the thread to see if someone already posted this. Glad I’m not the onliest german to be annoyed by this.

Thanks for the spontaneous nostalgia trip. I was playing it, or rather its sequel, in the 2000s after I got it from a magazine.

There’s a HD Version of Seven Kingdoms 2 on Steam. I think I might grab it.

That here is one of the more sensible approach to buying expensive stuff, I guess.

Try the cheap shit until you know what to look for or it breaks. Then, if the opportunity arises (new household, new tools) get the best you can afford and what suits your requirements.

Same shit with bikes. Is the rider part of the bike or not?

Wenn sie ein Schiff zulassen wollen, müssen Sie runter zur Hafenkommandatur!

Franken ist vielleicht Kentucky oder Missouri, aber nicht Alabama.

My point still stands about warning traffic that can’t see the ambulance, obstructed by trucks or buildings.

So anytime an ambulance approaches, all traffic has to stop? What if they’re just driving to the gas station? How do you know that the ambulance is on an emergency call?

Also: the siren is not just for everyone in front but also the next crossing over so everyone who doesn’t see it yet can hear it.

You could also use pre-mixed yoghurt dressing but I like to be fancy sometimes.

Just cucumber with yoghurt, some chopped dill, salt pepper and olive oil is a great salad. Add lots of garlic and it’s a simple Zaziki Tsaziki Zatziki greek garlic dip.

I’m not getting my hopes up for Rainbow Six after Without Remorse. Everything except the title and Character name has been changed and it turned into a generic action flick.

I can recommend Solar Fields, although they did the Soundtrack to Mirror’s Edge, their albums are pretty nice.

Also (but not really contemporary): Casiopea - Japanese Fusion Jazz. Sounds like the soundtrack to Gran Turismo, but still.

I can SIIIIIIIING
