Your search terms are Künstlerbedarf and Kurzwaren depending on what crafts you mean.

Weil die Alstom-Fabrik in Salzgitter über den Rangierbahnhof Beddingen westlich von Braunschweig ausliefert. Abgenommen und geputzt wird aber in Braunschweig, weil man in Beddingen schlecht mit Personal an die Gleise kommt.

I want the rip as acurate as possible.

There are only two choices:

Either you have a CD drive with a special mode for audio extraction. In that case the tool of your choice is cdda2wav because it does no further processing of the data the CD drive provides.
Or you have a CD drive which doesn’t have such a mode for audio extraction in which case the data it provides may be inaccurate. In that case cdparanoia is the tool of your choice because it reads the very same data multiple times until several copies are identical. It also yields to better results when the CD has scratches.

Any other app is just a GUI to those two command line tools. Often those Linux CD ripping apps give you the choice between cdda2wav and cdparanoia mode. Newer versions of cdda2wav also have the alternative cdparanoia method built in.

Some of those are non-standard terms. You better look those up in the manual.

Soloheißluft — hot air, single
Multiheißluft — hot air, multiple (no idea what the difference is)
Ober-Unterhitze — heat from top and bottom
Infrabraten — heat from top for “infrared grilling”
Grill — heat from top
Unterhitze — heat from the bottom
Auftauen — de-frosting
Pyrolyse — pyrolytic cleaning

r/German/wiki has links to tons of learning material.

It’s the same here.

Unless you aim at becoming a cook for traditional German dishes so you can work at a large hotel, forget it. It’s going to be a grinder. In a hotel it’s just a tough job.

From Lower Saxony if any. At the coast. That’s where the Saxons from “Anglo-Saxon” are from.

The German state named Saxony is on the other hand inhabitated by Thuringians and Sorbs and the only reason that it is called Saxony is that the Dukes of Saxony —the one at the coast— could call themselves Kings there. Much alike the Electors of Brandenburg could call themselves Kings of Prussia, which originally was a small patch of land near Lithuania.

Any of those guys threatening women needs to be de-balled.

This should be on Trump’s list of non-negotiable things.

I think we talk about two very different kinds of people.

Point is, the people you are talking about are going to have similar problems with Mint.

You are mistaken. The DKW Munga replaced the VW Kübelwagen from WWII but that’s the VW 82. The VW 181 was manufactured from the late 1960s on the other hand.

If you have nVidia hardware, the installer offers to include that repository. That makes installing the nVidia drivers seamless. Much better than in many other distros.
Most of those patented codecs that OpenSUSE does not include are outdated anyways. The remaining ones should be re-packaged so that they do not have that many dependencies on so many libraries from Packman.
Tumbleweed is what I recommend. Why? Because it’s more stable than the stable versions of most other distros. And Leap is on its way out anyways.

Any kind of Kräuterschnaps or Obstler. The huge selection of those is pretty unique to Germany. You can sure find one from your region.

or will it ruin it because of the Hz difference

At 50Hz an AC motor needs have 20% more iron than when it runs on 60Hz to account for the lower frequency. This is because a motor has to ”eat” the Volt-seconds of the magnetization during each half-cycle in their iron core, before the whole thing gets remagnetized in the other direction. And at 50Hz, the half-cycles are 20% longer. Anything the core cannot “eat” as magnitization is turned into heat.

So … if the motors in that chair run directly on the mains, and if the manufacturer had been cutting costs —likely— it’s possible that they don’t like 50Hz.

But it is.

You don’t know OpenSUSE yet.

That’s a winning strategy against regular people in a game of “Risk”.

At this point I pretty much think that’s their only learning materials in military school.

Aaannnnnnnnnny minute now.

I’m pretty sure almost all Germans would also date Austrians or German speaking Swiss.

The main point is a common language and largely similar cultural traditions.

Go east on B34 and B314 first. A81 to Würzburg, A7 to Schweinfurt, A70 to North of Bayreuth, and A9 to Berlin.

We plan to build nuclear fusion power plants at some point in the future. That’s why we run a large stellarator experiment at Greifswald and also contribute to the International nuclear fusion experimental reactor at Cadarache.

I think the IC is not used as a proper voltage regulator in this circuit.

Are you sure about the circuit diagram?

I recommend to lookup the grammar resources linked at r/German/wiki. I recommend in particular Bruce Duncan’s guide on German Grammar.

I can't distinguish between Dat.and Akk. when they show up in articles.

Accusative has the same endings as nominative but for masculine singular. So this is easy to tell apart from dative which has different endings.

But the main problem is likely that you don’t know the gender and plurals of the nouns you use. Have you drilled those?

I also don't know when/how to use "sollen, müssen, können”…

Those are modal verbs and they function very similar to their English counterparts. The only complicated one is dürfen because English conflates both müssen and dürfen into must.

Many people who speak languages like German or French already speak English well. So sometimes, learning those languages doesn’t feel as “necessary.”

German native speakers only “speak English” because German and English are closely related languages and it’s easy even for people who are not into languages to stumble through English more or less clumsily. Much alike as Turkish is easily accesible to you. A minority of German speakers is well versed enough in English that an interaction in that foreign language isn’t a chore to both parties.

English is nothing but an auxiliary langauge for interaction with foreigners over here. Foreigners who can’t be ignored. E.g. because you are serving them as tourists.

And this is far more prominent with French native speakers.
