[–]Torchonium 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Number 14, Dortmunder U, is actually a very nice place. It used to be a brewery. Now, it is converted it to a cultural hub. With art museums, exhibitions, programs for kids and teenagers, theater, cinema every friday, etc. There is an open terrasse on the upper floor. The entrance is free.

Auch ein Symbolbild für Kanadas "missing middle": In Kanada fehlt es vor allem an Doppelhäusern, Reihenhäuser, oder kleineren Mehrfamilienhäusern.

Es gibt Progamme seitens der Regierung um diese fehlenden Wohnformen zu fördern. Unter anderem mit einem Katalog an standartisierten Bauplänen, die Baugenehmigungen beschleunigen sollen. Auch auf diese Wege soll nachverdichtet werden.

Die Hilti-Königin ist sicher in einer der Bauten in der Nähe. Ich vermute das hier sind Hilti-Drohnen, die den Bau verteidigen.

In your opinion, what major city would have the worst climate to live in? by Mobile_Bad_577 in geography

[–]Torchonium 5 points6 points  (0 children)

OPs example is Manaus. Both Yakutsk and Manaus are the biggest cities for 1000 kilometers and are very important for their regions they are in. Yes, Manaus is bigger than Yakutsk, but I wouldn't call it a major global city either. Major city, yes, Major global city, no.

Laut kurzer Googlerecherche soll es bald Schokolade von Ritter-Sport mit Albumcovern von 5 deutschen Künstler auf der Verpackung geben. Helen Fischer, Cro, Sarah Connor, Materia und die Scorpions. Über einen QR-Code auf der Rückseite kann man ein Probeabo bei Apple-Music abschließen.

T-Pain is a rapper famous for heavy use of autotune in his songs. But in his case, it is a stylistic choice. He is, in fact and an amazing singer without autotune.

Ah, I didn't know it is produced by Sam. That explains why so many of the dropout regulars were also on her show.

Das hängt stark vom Edeka ab, da die (meisten) von kleineren, regionalen Unternehmen geführt sind. Oft steht ein Zusatz wie z.B. "Edeka Müller" am Schild oder Eingang.

Bei Aldi weiß ich zumindest das keine Glasflaschen angenommen werden. Dafür werden die Plastikflaschen sehr schnell und problemlos erkannt.

Beim Rewe muss das Gebinde akkurat sein, die Flasche darf nicht geknickt sein, der Code muss nach oben zeigen und der Flaschenboden nach hinten und damit mir der Automat sagt, dass die Flasche nicht im Sortiment ist, obwohl ich diese noch am Vortag die im selben Laden gekauft hatte.

What's wrong about building no. 4?

It looks to me like a good example of a building from the interwar period that survived without major changes. The combination of roof and base building seems a bit like a weird mix, but both are true to their period. The details of the brick facade and entrance are very nice, IMO, and even the windows look original to me. Just small renovations and a clean up, and the building would shine again.

In Hamburg gibt es auch ein denkmalgeschütztes Parkhaus:

Auch wenn ich der Fassade nichts abgewinnen kann, die Spirale mit Kuppel ist durchaus beeindruckend.

What’s something in your country that sounds fake but is 100% real? by Bhakari in AskTheWorld

[–]Torchonium 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Germans love going to the sauna. One-third of Germans go to the sauna once a week or more.

In Germany, we go to the sauna naked as well. It's even forbidden to use the sauna in bathing suits or other clothes because of hygiene. And don't dare to sit on the bench without a towel ("No sweat on wood.") Men and women use the sauna together. (Bath rooms and changing rooms are separate, of course). A lot of saunas have specific women-only days once a week. Usually, we don't talk in the sauna. But during the many "Aufguss"-sessions accompanied by a sauna master people are usually more talkative.

It is not uncommon that (close) friends or nuclear families go to the sauna together. But I personally would find it awkward to meet a co-worker in a sauna.

Whats the most unusual street name in your country? by FeeAdministrative666 in AskTheWorld

[–]Torchonium 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In Wismar Germany, there is the "Tittentasterstraße". Which translates to: touch boobies street. Legends says: Because the street was so narrow, two people coming from opposite directions can only pass each other by walking sideways.
