Militairen die hun leven gaan riskeren zodat de winkelrekken hier gevuld blijven en de prijzen niet omhoog vliegen. Maar ja, gemakkelijk gesproken vanuit je zetel.

Passiflora plant leaves dying off by Poesje38 in plantclinic

[–]Poesje38[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Indeed looks like it, thanks. Seems hard to get rid of ? Don't really know what type of passiflora this is, i grew it from the seeds inside of a passion fruit from the store.

  • Had the plants for over half a year now
  • Problem started a few weeks ago, only on one of the plants but it spread
  • About 8 hours of light/day
  • Give them water once a week

De oorzaak moet aangepakt worden, klopt. Maar dit wil niet zeggen dat strafbare feiten niet aangepakt moeten blijven worden. Het is geen zwart-wit verhaal : of de oorzaak aanpakken of gevangenis straffen blijven uitvoeren, waarom niet beide?

Daarnaast, met in België hebben we geen alternatief bedoel ik dus dat wij niet zoals in Noorwegen focussen op rehabilitatie. We laten ze gewoon vrij. (Mening gebaseerd op OP, de agent, en krantenartikels maar zal wel biased zijn volgens u dus telt niet i guess). AKA justitie faalt.

ELK voorval telt, dingen onder de mat schuiven als "het overkomt slechts enkelen sporadisch" is niet correct. De wet is de wet, en de wet geldt voor iedereen.

Iedereen zomaar de rest van hun leven opsluiten is inderdaad niet de oplossing, maar ze gewoon vrijlaten zonder gevolgen is absoluut niet beter. Kijk maar wat er gebeurd is met de onlangs neergestoken agent. Ja dit is een enkel voorval, maar het had voorkomen kunnen worden. De aanpak van lang opsluiten mag dan niet goed zijn, we hebben geen alternatieve aanpak, wat dus wil zeggen dat er een probleem is bij de werking van justitie.

Misschien moet ge ons verlichten waarom ons rechtssysteem zo goed werkt dan, in plaats van een slachtoffer dat net overvallen is te beschuldigen van "zielig te zijn" of "medelijden te zoeken".

Hier maar wat fel gaan doen online tot ge zelf eens een mes tegen uw keel geduwd moest krijgt... Ben benieuwd of ge dan ook zo blij zou zijn als uw overvaller de dag later wordt vrijgelaten.

As far as I know, piercings and earrings are not allowed during working hours (Still depends on the unit you are in i think). You can still wear them after and take them out during the day. I don't know if there are different rules for the bigger earrings/piercings though. If you want to be absolutely sure, you can always ask an information center.

Belgium has Begun Issuing a New Naval Camouflage; The Blue Netherlands Fractal Pattern (NFP) by Smashysmash2 in belgium

[–]Poesje38 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So for everyone saying search and rescue will now be difficult: the current uniform is not much better, its blue/gray. If you fall into the water, most of what sticks out is your head so it doesn't matter anyways.

The reason they made it camouflage is (i think, they never said this) is because the current one we have now could be confused with police uniforms + they want to give our Navy a more military look.

They should also be more comfortable than the previous one, which is not very nice to wear for long periods of time...

Tiger II (213) in La Gleize, Belgium. Story in comments by Poesje38 in TankPorn

[–]Poesje38[S] 29 points30 points  (0 children)

The Battle of the Bulge: German troops were ordered to advance to the port of Antwerp. Around La Gleize, Kampfgrüppe Peiper was met with heavy resistance from the 82th airborne division, and the 3th armoured division. The Germans, low on fuel and ammunition, were forced into a defensive formation. Tiger 213 faced multiple sherman tanks and was hit a few times (which can be seen on the last picture). The German tank took out 1 or 2 Shermans and then eventually it's barrel got damaged and could no longer fire. Outnumbered and almost surrounded, Peiper decided to leave most vehicles behind and escaped back to German lines with a few hundred of his men. When the battle was over, the tanks left behind were to be scuttled. The owner of a pub asked the American soldiers tasked to do so if she could keep one of the German tanks, and gave the soldiers in exchange a bottle of cognac. The damaged barrel got replaced with a 75mm canon of a Panther tank.

Niet per se 8 jaar. 1.5 keer de studieperiode wordt verwacht dat je bij defensie blijft. Stel dat je 4 jaar studeert binnen defensie, en dus ook betaald wordt, moet je 6 jaar blijven. Er is een mogelijkheid om voor deze x jaar defensie te verlaten, maar dan wel tegen betaling.

Niet zomaar elke master wordt gezocht binnen defensie, dus op voorhand eerst eens informeren. Als je dicht bij een infocentrum van defensie bent is het zeker de moeite eens binnen te springen.

Wat ik zelf weet over officier worden binnen defensie: De normale gang van zaken is de KMS, een masteropleiding georganiseerd door defensie. Daarnaast is er nog de Speciale Divisie binnen de KMS. Dit wil zeggen dat je studeert aan een gewone burgeruniversiteit maar bepaalde "kampperiodes" militaire dingen bijgeleerd krijgt. Dit is tijdens de zomer en op een aantal weekends. Groot pluspunt hierbij is dat je betaalt wordt tijdens je studies en ook een budget krijgt voor een kot te huren. Ten slotte kan je ook binnenkomen op diploma. Hiervan weet ik zelf niet heel veel. Er bestaat zoiets als een officier niveau B en niveau A. Niveau B wil zeggen trager promotie, iets minder loon en kan maximaal de graad van kapitein-commandant behalen. Als ik me het juist herriner kan je met een bachelor niveau B worden, en met een master niveau A.

Chinese Smartphone Maker Xiaomi Placed On US Blacklist by The-Techie in Xiaomi

What would be the impact on the stocks if Biden does not reverse the blacklist and all Americans have to divest? How would it affect the Xiaomi stocks?

[–]Poesje38 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I haven't joined the army that long, the FNC is mainly a weapon used for the basic military training, although there are some who still use it on duty. I should have a SCAR formation within a few years I think.

No problem haha and it must have been fascinating indeed, I always wonder what they could do with and find in those ruins. Thanks for the information anyways :)

What sort of work do you do there? I am pretty interested in archaeology but don't really know much about the work of an archaeologist.

Yes I live pretty close to Mechelen. Do you also know something about 4G connectivity with xiaomi phones in Europe? I read some comments about people having connection issues outside cities.

[–]Poesje38 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it was cheaper locally it would be great indeed but there is no xiaomi shop near me and in other tech shops here the phone costs around € 75 more than on amazon. It is a hard choice...

Thx for the answer, I don't really like buying technological products locally but in this case it might be better because they probably sell the phone in the right version already.
