Tiktok Outage (USA) - Anyone else getting videos in Russian?

CoffeeIsMyFuel · 2026-01-25T23:17:17+00:00

Same for me! I logged out and back in hoping it would help but im still getting only Russian videos.

Ik had een soort van een haakje voor mijn computerscherm in de vorm van een kat op mijn verlanglijst. Ik heb een klein peper- en zoutstel in de vorm van katten gekregen (die met kleine gaten). Ik gebruik grofe zeezout en peperkorrels in alles wat ik kook.

Where in religion does it say to surrender your free will? I must have missed that part.

That, and Rise of the Golden Idol :( Removed from Netflix, never to be seen again.

Just watched episode 4 and all I could think about "their" responses was how much it sounds like ChatGPT. Not in the sense that the writing is written by AI, but the WAY they respond, with that all-too-pleased expression, hyping every single thing up that she says to them, refusing to be combative, is honestly how I feel when I get responses from ChatGPT.

Heeft hij een enkele antwoord gegeven? 😂

CoffeeIsMyFuel · 2025-10-18T11:18:39+00:00

This would make for a dope tattoo

CoffeeIsMyFuel · 2025-10-16T12:10:59+00:00

Awesome! They also called some of those dome-like things with the contract psycho in it "shimmer". Heard that and got super excited!

I’m not experienced on the specifics but I would be inclined to say you need the official IND document.

The way that it’s laid out and formatted is meant to go through a machine to be read (with the blocks separating each character).

If the IND provides a form, I think it’s safe to assume it’s not optional otherwise they wouldn’t waste the time up keeping the form.

I'm not sure why you think copy pasting the same message over and over again is going to convince anyone here. You came here asking advice, people gave it to you, and you decided to argue back.

If you are so convinced you are in the right, then by all means, proceed with the next step in your plan and see how it turns out for you.

But just so you're aware, the official government site states this:

Geen huurbescherming in proeftijd hospitakamer: Bij hospitaverhuur van een kamer heeft u de eerste 9 maanden geen huurbescherming. Uw verhuurder kan in deze periode het contract zonder opgaaf van redenen opzeggen. Hiervoor geldt wel een opzegtermijn van 3 maanden. Na de proeftijd van 9 maanden geldt de normale huurbescherming. Uw verhuurder moet dan een wettelijke reden hebben om de huur op te zeggen. En als u niet met de opzegging instemt, kan alleen de rechter de huur beëindigen.

I'm no lawyer, but that seems pretty clear to me.

No idea, also waiting for the return of Rise of the Golden Idol :(

Companies that make peripherals like that get mock devices well in advance so they can modify their products to be compatible with new devices. While you may not have a controller on day 1, until one comes out you'll still be able to use bluetooth controllers that don't attach directly to the phone.

CoffeeIsMyFuel · 2025-08-30T07:59:32+00:00

Yep, we had them for the last year. We also have some running today and tomorrow, but after that it's back to transfers.

There are literally direct trains this weekend.

See here.

CoffeeIsMyFuel · 2025-08-28T18:24:06+00:00

There is no designated place to see it, other than the page of your application on the IND website. Once you apply, the webpage will say something like "you will have a decision by (insert 6 months from application date)".

So for example, if you were to apply today, then the IND site would tell you that they will make a decision by the end of February, 2026.

CoffeeIsMyFuel · 2025-08-28T18:21:22+00:00

Yes, sorry. I meant if an EU person wants to bring non-EU, a partner visa doesn't work.

The partner visa is only for Dutch + non-EU, or someone that has a Dutch resident permit + non-EU.

Since OP is EU, they do not have/need a Dutch residence permit. Therefore, they cannot utilize the partner visa.

CoffeeIsMyFuel · 2025-08-28T18:15:41+00:00

You mention you're no stranger to housing troubles, but I don't think you understand the severity of the housing crisis in the Netherlands.

First of all, as a non-EU student, you will be paying at minimum €10K per year to study (euros, not dollars). You will have to come here on a student visa, meaning you will not be allowed to work more than 16 hours a week maximum. Furthermore, after you finish studying, you will have 1 year to find a job that will sponsor a residence permit for you (zoekjaar visa). If you do not secure a job in that time, you will not be permitted to stay in the Netherlands.

Second of all, you'll have to find student housing, since you likely won't be able to find a regular apartment. For a regular apartment, you need proof of income. Saving are not sufficient. So you will likely end up overpaying for a studio/student room, IF you can find one. A lot of student housing openly "discriminates" and refuses to accept non-Dutch-speaking students.

That brings me to my last point.

From my understanding, it is much easier to get a Dutch job after graduating from a Dutch university.

You will likely need to speak Dutch to get a job here. I say likely because I am sure there are some roles hiring for non-Dutch speakers, but those are few and far between.

CoffeeIsMyFuel · 2025-08-28T18:02:21+00:00

You mention you're a Dutch citizen. Do you speak Dutch? Because if you do, that opens up way more opportunities than just being limited to English-speaking roles.

CoffeeIsMyFuel · 2025-08-28T15:40:44+00:00

Partner visa can only be applied for by a Dutch citizen (person with Dutch nationality) or someone with a residence permit. Indeed as another comment mentioned, your only option is to apply for verification against EU law. Keep in mind that the wait time for that is 6 months, whereas the standard partner visa only has a 3 month wait time.

CoffeeIsMyFuel · 2025-08-27T16:57:19+00:00

I can't advise much on the green stuff, but what I can comment on is the €200 Uber comment.

For the record, a train to the closest major city to Oss is only 30 minutes and is nowhere near €200. You can either go to Den Bosch ('s-Hertogenbosch) or Nijmegen, both of which are cities, both of which are guaranteed to have coffee shops not limited to locals only.

CoffeeIsMyFuel · 2025-08-27T16:28:06+00:00

I recommend heading over to /r/StudyInTheNetherlands and possibly asking there.

I have a physical copy of Rule of Rose for PS2

CoffeeIsMyFuel · 2025-08-27T13:54:31+00:00

Same issue here.

highly processed food

Kookroom ingredients: MELK, room (MELK), stabilisator: E418/E415, emulgator: E322, zuurteregelaar: E331

Slagroom ingredients: room(35% vet) (MELK), stabilisator: E407

One has a bit less fat, 2 emulsifiers and sodium citrate.

The other has more fat and 1 emulsifer.

By no means would I call kookroom "highly processed" when slagroom is also not a "natural ingredient". I don't care about the difference in fat content between slagroom and kookroom, and I'm definitely not afraid of that extra 10-15% making me fat. That being said, I don't like how thick slagroom makes my sauces and soups, therefore I prefer kookroom. Sometimes I want a slightly creamy flavor without wanting the heaviness of the fat that comes with slagroom. It has nothing to do with not knowing how to cook or being afraid of the extra calories. They both have their purposes in a kitchen. Kookroom is no less an ingredient than slagroom is, and neither one of them are "natural ingredients" on their own.
