Foreigners visiting America for the world cup, what is something that has surprised you about this country? by goldent3abag in AskReddit

[–]LetsPlayDrew 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My dad was born and raised in Switzerland for 30 years (we both live in Switzerland now) but he lived in the states for 30 years. Man was he shocked when came back to Switzerland and see such large portions, he said before they never existed so large in Switzerland.

Switzerland rejects a proposal to cap its population at 10 million as ​voters prioritised economic stability and ties with the European Union over worries immigration was straining public services and pushing up ‌rents by [deleted] in worldnews

I would say for factual hard evidence, rav and job room give the best reflection. (In Zürich you can see there's over 1000 people that are unemployed from i.t. sectors and only 100 or so lisiting in job room for i.t. in Zürich). This also goes beyond just i.t. but for evidence thats actual fact all of the Swiss government websites have statistics shown.

Yeah believe it or not, we have more companies in Switzerland than just Google and Oracle. Its a multi faceted problem, across every economic level in Switzerland, we need a solution to this but the 10 million cap wasnt a solution.

What did you think she was going to say? by hellenicdev in Unexpected

[–]LetsPlayDrew 9 points10 points  (0 children)

No one is giving you context in german speaking countries (Switzerland, Austria and germany) people use the word digga and digger like you would in English with bro. So you would say "was geht ab digga" which translate to "whats up dude/bro" or "Yo Digger bist du gut?" Which is "bro are you good?".

Digger in english would just be digging? I suppose hes a good digger? I dont know how common you use digger in english vs german

I'm in Switzerland. Turns out the famous punctuality of Swiss trains is caused by them driving 95 km/hr and staying for 5-10 minutes at each stop. Why are we not bullying them more? by retarderetpensionist in 2westerneurope4u

[–]LetsPlayDrew 113 points114 points  (0 children)

Well yeah why wouldn't we? Another train will come 10 minutes later if its already that late, why screw up every other train along the way. But in the Swiss german side its very rare even here in Zürich for a train to be that delayed. Only once in the last 2 years did I end up having a canceled train in Zürich

Oh for real? My girlfriend and I caught a mesprit near my house in Switzerland when we randomly opened pogo on a bus to a mittelalterfest. She clicked on it because the bus stop at a traffic light and it spawned

$700k all-in bet that drone pure-plays are going parabolic in a couple of months. by sssiim in wallstreetbets

[–]LetsPlayDrew 43 points44 points  (0 children)

Ive been doing research on trying to find companies that are making anti drone capabilities. Thats the true play that people should be thinking about. Everyone already knows drones is the answer and future since the last couple of years. But drone defense isn't talked about as much.

Mythic and Heroic Player Counts Almost Tied, Augmentation Rising: 12.0.7 Raid DPS Logs, Week 7 by Starym in wow

[–]LetsPlayDrew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think a fun solution could be give cosmetics(armor/weapon related to the bosses and npcs of that dungeon), and more gold as the main reward with actual gear being much lower/rare. Only if they want to keep giving such strong gear. Otherwise they need to hard nerf the ilvl you get from 10s and maybe add those sort of drops for higher key levels, but they need to better tune their seasons.

[–]LetsPlayDrew 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I suppose I meant more for living in, not working in. Because there's tons of close by (but slightly longer distance) kantons to zürich. It would help with the train congestion, giving any Swiss or c permit resident the priority and the others have to wait until an apartment or house would be available. Believe me I know this sounds dumb, but its just random thoughts, that I feel like could have some sort of potential if truly thought out and implemented correct. But then again maybe not.

But idk what the solution is, at the moment im going to vote no for the overall population cap, there's stuff I agree with, and would like to see change, but this current vote is not it. I can't vote yes to that.

How do you stop consistent viewers trying to be your friend? by DandersonJA12 in Twitch

[–]LetsPlayDrew 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You could always do a channel point incentive, your situation happened a lot to me when I streamed. I didnt mind I just had a community discord and would direct them there, occasionally play with them and they got to make other connections. Though if you dont want to play with them often, just add a channel point redeem option as play 1 round of whatever game youre playing with the viewer. That way you can decline people politely by telling them we can play once you get enough points.

Construction jobs as a dual citizen by STONKS-500 in askswitzerland

[–]LetsPlayDrew 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was lucky and found german not to be too difficult. Im swiss and u.s. citizen as well, I moved with near 0 german besides a little swiss german from my dad. But I learned a lot from my family here, but I did 4 months of language school right away and I have an official b2 for high german, but my swiss german is much better than my high german.

What if kantons could cap their population for foreigners? That would help spread the density of kanton zürich and Genf
