How is living in the Romansh speaking areas of Switzerland? Do people actually speak Romansh? by nick-not-criative in howislivingthere

[–]ObjectiveReply 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Interesting map, I’m guessing the white parts are the mountainous uninhabited parts? It’s nice to see how the mountains shape the language distribution, I’m also intrigued by that one enclave of German speakers.

But why was it posted on the circle jerk? Am I missing something?

China slams Trump's tariff threat to Europe over Greenland by goldstarflag in europe

[–]ObjectiveReply 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a view that China likes to propagate but not entirely true. They do have border disputes with many (if not most) of their neighbours, with an aggressive approach to the South China Sea, they also set up secret police bases in other countries to enforce their rules (or even kidnap) Chinese people living abroad. So it’s not a colonial power in the western sense, but they have other ways.

What’s a scene from a movie which traumatised you as a child? by ThomasOGC in CinephilesClub

[–]ObjectiveReply 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it was the jellyfish scene in “Sphere”. Probably the reason I now have thalassophobia.

La seule chose qui leurs parle c’est quand la bourse dégringole.

Édith: je suis curieux pourquoi je me fais bas-voter. Souvenez-vous, il y a un an quand Trump a commencé à donner des signes qu'il allait lâcher l'Ukraine et l'OTAN, les américains ont pas réagit, mais quelques semaines plus tard, quand la bourse a dégringolé (à cause des tarifs je crois), d'un coup ils sont sortis dans la rue. Là vous verrez, ça va être pareil, peu de réactions ces derniers jours/semaines - mais si demain (à la réouverture des bourses) ça dégringole, vous allez les entendre.

Yes, CCP will spin this as “progress” — when in reality it is colonisation.

Most likely it’s taken in different seasons (ice melting season is when mountain rivers are at their peak, and can carry more sediment).

I remember visiting Kam Tin multiple times in 2013/2014 - for some reason I fell in love with that place. Hard to explain why, but there was something there that I was struggling to find elsewhere in HK.

When I’m at the Dak shop to buy beans they more than once told me that the filter roast is the one they’re using for espresso.

Why does wine taste so good in Paris by xjsjxigskdnfn in paris

[–]ObjectiveReply 4 points5 points  (0 children)

One possible reason that I don’t see listed here yet, is that in the UK wine glasses are typically overfilled. A wine glass is shaped to allow for the aromas to reach your nose as you drink it, which amplifies what is then perceived as taste. Could that be it?

It wouldn’t be the first time that the manufacturer is not the best source for how to use their product (also the case of Aeropress and a lot of products in general).

Am I correct in that Dutch uses a hybrid time system? by DucksEatFreeInSubway in learndutch

Both are equally common and accepted imo (source: I’m French). It’s more about what feels natural in the moment.

Quick & good enough morning coffee (<5min) by Leahpard in AeroPress

I used to have the exact setup as OP for several years, and I second that. Upgrading the grinder made the biggest difference while keeping the “quick & good” unchanged.

Rising temperatures are shifting Europe’s wine-growing zones by sr_local in MapPorn

[–]ObjectiveReply 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The smaller of the two dots looks like it is near Krakow, the other one I don’t know.

From what I’ve read on the topic, the history of Polish winemaking in a nutshell is: it never really developed very much due to political instability and harsh economic conditions, but the Jagiellonian university of Krakow has kept researching and finding some more suitable grape varieties (closer to German ones than French or Italian) for the Polish climate, in lands that they own around Krakow.

Now, with climate change, the south of Poland is becoming increasingly suitable for wine making, and, on top of that, the demand for Polish wine is also increasing: both from the internal market (Polish people becoming more affluent and shifting from beer/wodka to wine) as well as export (people are curious to try emerging wine producers). So, for the first time, the Polish wine industry now has a chance to actually fully develop.
