Yeah, I visited sweden once, where I camped in nature. The cities were meh, but the nature was very nice.

In the east maybe, its definetly not bad at all in northern germany (Schleswig Holstein).

It would be a kinda fun league to watch, but I dont want to hear about athletes dying because they took obscene amounts of steroids to be the best.

As a German, afaik if you want to permanently move to germany you need to prove that you can support yourself financially (or someone else will?), so you will need a job offer and or some savings.

There is no requirement to not be disabled, but being disabled could make fulfilling those requirements more difficult.

Yeah, while the roads in the Netherlands are definetly better than ours in Germany, the Belgian roads are just so much worse.

I think those markings are not because you need to know in which country you are, but because they want to show their borders for a few reasons:

It is cool.

It shows their heritage and identity as a border town.

It helps tourism.

Edge has started doing that too, whenever I download something from my Home Assistant instance while at home I have to rightclick and say that I really want to download it.

As long as such an option is available its not too bad.

Looks somewhat german to me as a german.

Then you can just install something else on it?

I get that it sucks when a device is locked, because you might need to install a different OS for a multitude of reasons, but as long as you are able to install whatever you want I dont blame the manufacturer.

You can install whatever you want on a Steam Deck afaik, so I dont get what you are trying to say here.

Huh, I didnt even think about the word sea, as a non native English speaker I didnt think of it. I get the argument that the baltic sea and the Meditarranean are both seas and not oceans, but I looked it up too and, yeah the definitions flow into each other (lol). (Also, greetings from someone who lives a few kilometers away from the baltic sea).

The Meditarranean is also an ocean

Yeah, if a DLC isnt just content taken out of the main game (in a way that makes the main game worse) and is reasonably priced for the amount of content it contains, then it is a good way for developers to get paid for continuing development of a game after launch when it was already finished at launch.

The Witcher 3 DLCs for example were pretty good.

Thats why I just leave the dust on top lol.

Paid 55€ for my old used laser printer a few years ago and some toner for 20€, both will last me well over 700 pages, not to mention the time saved by not having to go to a print shop and I can print whenever I want, even on sunday (Germans know what I mean).

If I need to print something in color I could do it at work or at my fathers place, but that didnt even happen yet.

99% of the usage my printer sees is German government bureaucracy, the rest is some other bureaucracy.

At least they dont need color.

Yup, bought an old office mono laser printer (its from OKI) for pretty cheap, I got one that can do duplex scanning and printing with a document feeder because I dont want to scan every page individually.

Put new cheapo toner in it after a bit because it only came with a little bit and with that new cartridge it will probably last at least 10 years with my print frequency.

If I would have bought a new ink printer with those features I would have paid much more (investment and running costs) and I would probably need to unclog it every time I want to print something.

If its a contract with unlimited employment time, like most contracts in Germany are, he cant fire you anyway, at least not without a valid reason, which could include: stealing, not doing your job, always coming late when there are meetings, stuff like that. But you can only properly be fired for that, if you do it multiple times (depending on the severity), you will get written warnings beforehand.

Another reason is mass layoffs, but they have to have a valid reason too, which doesnt include “oops we hired too many people last year”.

So under normal circumstances you will not get fired in Germany, its a different story if you only have a 2 year contract for example, then you might not get a renewal, but a company cannot indefinetly rehire you with a limited contract, they will have to give you an unlimited one, if they want to keep you for longer.

Look at stop signs in France and Quebec, then you know whats up.
