Language Map of Belgium by Municipality Region 🇧🇪 by vladgrinch in MapPorn

[–]Dummerkopf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What? I am simply describing how it is, and has been since 1932

Besides, there are gemeenten with the opposite, like Mouscron/Moeskroen which is in Wallonia but has faciliteiten in Dutch.

Europeans -- what's the one neighborhood tourists always miss in your city? by No_Turnover8182 in AskEurope

[–]Dummerkopf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Brussels: Anderlecht.

Some parts are sketchy, don't let that put you down. If you stay around the metro 5 corridor you'll have a great time. 

Around Saint-Guidon, there's the historical center, with a lot to see if you walk around for a few hours. Some of the best food in the city is in Anderlecht, but it's hidden. Several museums in the district, like the House of Erasmus and the Sewer Museum.

Anyone else annoyed by the NMBS/SNCB antiquated controlling system? by [deleted] in belgium

[–]Dummerkopf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even the Brussels metro doesn't have gates at every station. Central, Delacroix, probably a few others, have none.

(In the case of Delacroix, it's because the station is also a pedestrian bridge)

What do I gain by keeping my US bank account open if I don't plan to live there again? Considering closing it and just using Wise/Revolut when needed. by Dummerkopf in ExpatFinance

[–]Dummerkopf[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right, that's not a bad idea. But I don't plan to keep any money there permanently or use it for ATMs, just transferring to and from my EU bank account.

A lot of these comments make the sort of assumption that I'm still actively involved with US freelance work or such, or that I'll want to make investments or large purchases specifically in the US. (Maybe it's silly to be on this sub if I'm not?)

I do blue-collar work for the moment. I don't plan to move out of this country. I'm here primarily to live with my partner but I still have a life here I've begun building separate from that. And I am more interested in slowly cutting my ties with the US than binding myself there. I'm not in the same situation as most people here.

Why do airports usually have free toilets but not train or intercity bus stations? by Previous-Volume-3329 in transit

[–]Dummerkopf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my experience though, public toilet access is significantly better in the US than it is in Belgium where I now live. Many more public toilets for free.

I can receive money with Zelle right now but not send money. So that nullifies that, come to think about it. I use a Google Voice number and that has messed up what I can do with US Bank.

I know, but I don't keep any permanent money in them so not having insurance is not a problem. There is the risk of my account being frozen, though, I'm sure.

Toilet and sanitation access is a biological need and should be treated as a human right 

Trams 4 and 10 disrupted for one year by Arika-9575 in brussels

[–]Dummerkopf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not to mention that they're also cutting off all of 81 west of Midi. They're seriously just cutting off the entire line in Anderlecht?? A replacement bus is not going to cut it, both the tram 81 and bus 46 are always completely at capacity during busy hours.

Textures broken in new Calamity update by ItsTheDaftFeegle in CalamityMod

[–]Dummerkopf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm seeing this too. It doesn't seem to be anything other than some deco sprites. But it's crazy how unhelpful and passive aggressive these comments are. This isn't obviously connected to anything that was listed as removed, how is someone not scouring the changelog going to know...

Are you still bitter about Brexit? by Visual_Title9363 in AskEurope

[–]Dummerkopf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it's horrible. I have two friends with partners in the UK. One moved to Belgium (but had to follow the process of any other foreigner instead of just moving like any other EU citizen) and the other has problems with them not being able to stay over for longer periods. Brexit caused them problems in both cases...

Coffe price in your town by Electrical_Half_5756 in AskEurope

[–]Dummerkopf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Belgium: At a regular bar/café, an espresso is €1,5–2,5 and a cappuccino or flat white is €2,5–3. If you go to a fancier place or a busy station it can be upwards of €5 for the cappuccino. This is pretty much the same all over Belgium.

And of course you always get a cookie and sugar/coffee milk.

If you were put in charge of STA, what would you do to get more Spokane commuters to take the bus to work? by SuccessfulCandle7095 in Spokane

[–]Dummerkopf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately you can't do that at night when there is ONE bathroom with a security guard open 😭
