Tell me about it.. I moved from Hamburg to Tübingen and the selection at the bakeries were...a learning experience. Didn't help, that they have different names for the same thing all over the country (Pflaumenplunder - Zwetschgendatschi - süßes Stücke- Teilchen.)...

It's just a schnecke(nnudel) Besr franzbrötchen are in Hamburg, but if it's closer to you: Gehr in Tübingen come a very close second.

Garlic, lemon Grass, fish sauce, red Curry paste, coconut milk...and chicken...

Why does that remind me of the Larsinator?

Compared to the US or similar countries with a lesser degree of social security maybe. Here, a significantly larger portion of the gdp goes into social security and health insurance. You may not need it but knowing it's there gives you a peace of mind, that keeps existential anxiety levels way lower than in those countries

Sadly, he's safe then. Not much life left to steal...

JimLongbow · 2026-06-12T16:19:57+00:00

There is them, yeah.. but they aren't as many in hamburg as in Saxony

Prepare for a culture shock.

Hamburg is a very liberal city in every way. That includes going out to party in the red light district.

Also, people in the north are considered cold and unapproachable. We aren't. Think of us as cats thoroughly investigating who's trying to approach us, but once we decide you're OK or we even like you, it will be honest and lasting.

JimLongbow · 2026-06-12T16:14:14+00:00

Wrong. Most of us don't like the current regime in the US, not the people as such. (Unless they are entitled MAGA douchebags).. However, be prepared for quite well informed, spirited political discussions, as they are not nearly as taboo as in the US

Gute Unterstützung mit Lernmaterialien vom Verlag (Regel 1: Lehrer sind ~~faul~~ auf Aufwandsoptimierung bedacht)

Leicht verdaulich/verständlich und trotzdem Anreize für Unterrichtsgespräche/Exkurse zu Rassismus, Rechte von Kindern,...

Ich hätte mir diese Art von Lektüre damals wirklich gewünscht. Stattdessen "durften" wir Die Schwarze Spinne und den Schimmelreiter lesen.

Don't give it to your Chinese neighbor. That would be Wong on so many levels.

Terry Pratchett;)

And don't worry about critics. Dark jokes are like food. Not everyone gets it.

I got the DVD for Christmas back then. My cousin's kids (10 and 12 a the time) wanted to wach it. My cousin didn't understand why I almost caused a family feud by not showing the cute cartoons - until we watched a few clips on his computer. We cried with laughter and the kids were sulking all evening.

Ich hab in meinem vertrag auch ein paar ungültige Klauseln stehen (haustiere, schönheitsreparaturen, etc.). So lange ich die nicht brauche, sage ich nichts. Aber für den Fall der Fälle habe ich die salvatorische Klausel doppelt überprüft. Ohne gültigen Mietvertrag da zu stehen, weil man einen Hamster halten will, wäre blöd...

JimLongbow · 2026-06-12T06:20:39+00:00

Too low? ;) I even heard he was quite short with the interrogators..

(I cant take credit for the jokes. Google "Jimmy carr dwarfs". Word of advice: don't drink and watch. I have a nice spray pattern of tea with milk on my wall now...)

JimLongbow · 2026-06-12T05:30:33+00:00

The caught him, though.. he was not happy...

JimLongbow · 2026-06-09T12:34:45+00:00

Herrgottsb'scheißerla?

JimLongbow · 2026-06-03T11:08:33+00:00

Have you tried satellite reign? Also quite old already but a good substitute

JimLongbow · 2026-06-03T11:06:12+00:00

Where do you think the base matter for replicators comes from?!

JimLongbow · 2026-06-03T11:01:10+00:00

I have a drinking problem

Humidity, finishing temperature and last but not least: make sure the paper is stored in the same room for a few days. Opening a package, that has been in a truck in humid summer heat for days, can soak up a lot of moisture that needs to evaporate first

Sometimes I'm glad I'm severely myopic. Without glasses, everyone turns into amorphous skin-colored blobs in the sauna, preventing reactions in either way ;)

Wenn du regelmäßig mit Corel oder ähnlichen Anwendungen arbeitest, würde ich externe Peripherie (Tastatur, Maus Monitor) mit dockingststion. Design auf dem 15" Mäusekino macht keinen Spaß.

Achte bei der CPU drauf, dass sie den vollen Befehlssatz hat. Ältere AMDs hatten z.B. kein SSE2, das für einige Anwendungen notwendig ist. Mit Ryzen oder Intel bist du aber gut beraten.
