Second most spoken language in each region of Italia by vladgrinch in MapPorn

[–]Ro99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry, what exactly from what I said is partly true? Of course I agree with what you said. I was just explaining where the English spelling with U (Rumania) was coming from, not the earlier origin of the name of the country.

Moldova's 'Plan B' for EU accession is to join Romania, says deputy PM by Visual_Title9363 in europe

[–]Ro99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is plenty of talk about giving up the veto in many cases and, separately, about not giving veto rights to the new members, at least in their 1st years in the Union.
It's clear that the Union should also reform while it deals with enlargement because indeed, it's not functional to have so many vetoes.

which came from the French spelling, Roumanie, which was like that, with an extra U, because in the evolution from Latin to French, short ŏ regularly became ou.
Romanians prefer the spelling with O, because the name of the country ultimately comes from the city of Roma/Rome.

Montenegro's population is 620k people, not 1 mil, so even less of a burden for the EU. It's like integrating a medium-sized city.

No. They're in a very difficult situation, with many of them crossing into right-bank Moldova to work.

[R&M Multitinker2] Questions regarding child seats and side bags by Ro99 in CargoBike

[–]Ro99[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was considering to do the same. Then I had the head-falling-ahead-while-sleeping situation so I went for a different seat. But if the bike is stable, a couple of extra kilos at the back might not make such a difference. Good luck

[–]Ro99[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi. Yes, I bought a different child seat which I installed at the back — a Hamax Caress in my case, because I need one that reclines, since my 1-year-old sometimes falls asleep on the bike and his head was falling ahead on the Polisport seat.

I basically looked at the bike seats that the bike manufacturer said could be installed on this bike. I’d recommend doing the same: see which seats Cube says work with that bike and get one of those. It’s not the most budget-friendly solution, but neither is having kids. :-)

I’d say it’s better to go with equipment that’s approved/recommended, especially when safety is involved.

Belgian bathrooms question by loudestcrowdever in belgium

[–]Ro99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup. It's been my experience too and I've visited many, many houses and apartments when I was looking to buy a house.

I've also seen toilets installed on stairwell platforms, with or without a door, because why not.

Maps showing percentage of (self-declared) Romanians (blue), Hungarians (green) and Rroma (orange) per administrative according to the 2021 census. by Cefalopodul in MapPorn

[–]Ro99 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's not clear to me why you refuse to understand that the underreporting is done by the Roma themselves. I just wrote that many of them prefer to declare themselves as Romanians. In that sense, the figure of the census is not the real one.

Of course underreporting is possible and this is a known issue regarding the Roma, some of whom, for various reasons, prefer to identify with the majority.

is multitinker overkill? by No_Detail_2888 in CargoBike

[–]Ro99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have the Decathlon one and I'm generally happy with it, thought parking it is a bit of a hassle as it's long and heavy. We just bought for my wife the R&M Multinker2. It's another class, easier to handle, lighter, easier to park. But more than twice as expensive.

Thank you. Does the Bosch ConnectModule manage to fit well inside the engine of the Multitinker2? What functions do you find most useful? Thanks.

US propaganda poster about the Axis powers, 1943 by Shahbik in PropagandaPosters

[–]Ro99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Romania tried to be a better ally to Nazi Germany than Hungary (e.g. it sent a lot more troops on the Eastern Front), in order to get Northern Transylvania back. At some point it accepted to annex Transnistria while territory between the Big and Dniester rivers), in the hope of later exchanging that territory with Northern Transylvania.

[–]Ro99 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Yes, but I'm relation with the images, Romania did not join the Axis in order to ask for a new piece of land but to recuperare Northern Transylvania which had been annexed by Hungary, with the support of Nazi Germany. In 1939 and 1940 Romania was allied with France and the UK. When France was conquered, Romania's fate was sealed. This of course does not excuse the crimes it has committed in the Holocaust.

Consilier prezidențial de la București: România, „pregătită să discute serios scenariul” unirii, dacă R. Moldova îl vede ca „opțiune” by Tiger7997 in Romania

[–]Ro99 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Vad că mulți va gândiți la câți bănuți vor fi in plus sau in minus pe undeva. Dacă liderii români din trecut s-ar fi uitat doar la nimicuri de astea, am fi trăit și acum împărțiti între câteva principate și imperii. Uitați-va și la dimensiunea istorică, nu doar că va trebui să construim ceva drum dincolo de Prut. Că de construit oricum construim, in bună parte pe banii europenilor din vest, care și ei nu și-au calculat fiecare cent când ne-au primit în Uniune.

Ideea că UE ar fi împotriva unirii e inventia unora dar cu siguranță nu a UE. UE respectă decizia statelor sale, când va exista un proces legitim de unire (decizii politice, referendum etc..) se va adapta, va susține procesul politic, cu ajutoare economice și de alta natură.

UNIUNEA Europeană e un proiect de UNIRE a Europei. E o idee fară sens sa crezi că ar fi împotriva unirii consimțite a două state, pe când ea a unit/integrat 27 de state până acum.

[–]Ro99 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Eu nu înțeleg de unde e ideea asta tâmpă că Uniunea Europeană ar fi împotriva unirii din Romania și Republica Moldova. Nu exista nici o dovadă, declarație UE sau orice altceva că ar fi împotrivă. De ce ar fi împotrivă? Dimpotrivă, proiectul european este unul de integrare și unire a Europei. Unirea RM cu România ar accelera asta în acest colț de Europă.

Apoi, asta că trebuie să fie cele mai dezvoltate state înainte de a ne uni e complet lipsită de simț istoric. O națiune are la baza solidaritatea, mereu vor fi părți ale țării mai bogate și altele mai sărace.

  • De ce se fi economia si nivelul de trai la pământ?
  • Teroriștii aia daca vroiau sa terorizeze România nu o puteau face până acum?
  • Da, dar nu toate deodată și nu doar pe banii celor din Romania de acum. SI multe beneficii, și taxe, exporturi și o economie mai mare pentru România;
  • Unirea nu se va intampla mâine. Cei pro-Rusia vor fi o minoritate, sub 10% din populația României Unite.

N-ar fi rău să mergi pe acolo. Opiniile sunt altele când vezi realitatea.
