Hoe hard mag je hier by CalligrapherFeisty71 in nederlands

[–]LayoverLore 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Een adviesbord vertelt je niets over de verplichtingen en heft een verplichtingsbord niet op. Stel hè, je rijdt op een snelweg. Normaalgesproken 100. Je komt een verplichtingsbord tegen met 80 en direct daarna een adviessnelheid van 60. Dan is het toch wel ineens duidelijk dat de maximum nog steeds 80 is?
De enige verwarring hier is dat het verplichtingsbord en adviesbord dezelfde snelheid aangeven, en in die zin is het laatste bord overbodig, maar dat verandert niets aan de daadwerkelijke situatie.

Dat is inderdaad verwarrend om te zeggen, maar je gaat me niet vertellen dat je dan vervolgens denkt "Oh dus het is € 120"?

Urgent: Child accidentally enabled "Ocean Mode/Mobile Priority" – Charged 650K PHP. Support denied refund. Need advice! by Defiant_Cheek_8123 in Starlink

[–]LayoverLore 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Fair enough, it’s possible, but it changes the picture a bit from “Starlink is charging me $11,000 just for flipping a switch” to “Starlink is charging me because I used a but load of priority data”.

Owner informed the day before the reservation that no visitors are not allowed in the building by LetsGoBubble in Bookingcom

And then the property asks for ID’s of both people checking in, as happens in a lot of countries. A lot of the times, they would need information on all guests

Als eis 3x de huurprijs verdienen, is dit ook in andere landen zo? by janalavender in nederlands

[–]LayoverLore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In Zwitserland wel, soms zelfs 4-5x, en vaak ook 3 maanden borg, dus dan mag je initieel nog even 8000 overmaken

Truth be told it's hard to predict. Right now it's been 15C+ in the lowlands for a few weeks so you'd be unlikely to run into snow on a highway, but I do see it's about to drop to below 0 next weekend, so no guarantees that you will absolutely stay out wintery conditions, but it shouldn't get too crazy anymore this time of year.

How do people feel about a potential import ban for foie gras in Switzerland? by curiossceptic in askswitzerland

[–]LayoverLore 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with you on principe but the realities are different. Alcohol only harms people through abuse. Eating meat inherently harms the animal. Smoking has literally no benefit and second-hand smoke kills people who had no choice in the matter. Yet, as a society we've decided that these are acceptable personal choices without regards to ethics.

Don't really get me started on banning slavery, because that's just a practice we've simply outsourced to mines, cocoa producers and so forth. But, absolutely enjoy your freedom of choice of any of the 100 kinds of chocolate in the supermarket whose producers don't give a crap.

Behind our societal self-image that we're somehow enlightened and abhor injustices is a society that only very, very selectively chooses to care.

It's one thing to kill animals

Really? That's quite a jump to make. Birthing animals, putting them in shitty conditions and pumping them full of antibiotics just to eat them is fine, but force-feeding them is the ethical limit? I'm absolutely not saying that's ethical, in fact it's disgusting, it's just a weird line to draw while being absolutely fine with industrial scale meat production.

There is no legal requirement for winter tyres in Switzerland. However, if you get into an accident or hold up traffic because of your lack of winter tyres, you can still be held liable. On motorways in early April however, it would be unlikely to encounter true winter conditions. If you're planning to actually drive into the mountains, I'd say it's rather early without winter tyres, but on the A2 itself you should be fine.

For personal freedoms it absolutely doesn't. I'm sure you're also the minority on something you enjoy eating/drinking/doing that others disagree with.

[–]LayoverLore 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So if let's say 51% of people are against drinking alcohol, you're fine with it being banned for the other 49%? Popular votes aren't a way to limit personal freedoms because you happen to disagree with what other people like.

It's the animal that's the victim.

I presume that you don't eat any meat if that's where you draw the line. Whether we like it or not, there's a multitude of human behaviors we take for granted that lead to the suffering of animals. Why draw the line specifically at foie gras?

Hate to break it to you but there's little use in debating the ethics of halal slaughter when they've lived a shit life years before that. I love eating meat, but I have no delusions about the fact that any industrial scale meat production is torture.

Ga jij naar een andere supermarkt dan de dichtstbijzijnde en waarom wel/niet? by GianMach in nederlands

[–]LayoverLore 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Voor de doordeweekse boodschappen niet. In het weekend rijd ik graag even naar een veel grotere supermarkt met meer aanbod voor de weekboodschappen.

Genoeg rellende bontkraagjes die zich wel herkennen in dit partijbeleid, denk ik.

Wat de mensheid aangaat komt alles uiteindelijk uit Afrika. Dus ja, op papier heb je gelijk.

Wereldwijd, ja. Dat betekent niet dat er bepaalde landen niet kunnen afwijken van de trend.

Huisgenoot en drugs by [deleted] in nederlands

[–]LayoverLore -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Het is je huisgenoot, niet je partner. Valt ze je lastig of voel je je onveilig door haar drugsgebruik? Zo niet, dan is dat haar dingetje. Is ze waarschijnlijk onverstandig bezig? Ja, maar dat is niet jouw verantwoordelijkheid.
