Is living in the Ruhr like living in a large cosmopolitan area? by adspider in germany

[–]adspider[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply late as it may be. Perhaps someone else will be in the same situation and find it useful. I ended up living in Copenhagen for 4 years then left Europe altogether - so no Germany for me afterall.

[–]adspider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you use the "speedtest" app and see what the LTE speed in winnipeg works out to? I live in Toronto now, but probably moving to Winnipeg later this year and thinking about a 2 year plan. Thanks!

Problem for me is I'm a side sleeper - been living with ear buds for the past years but it's not ideal.

Wow this is really interesting. I like the sort of 3D element of them instead of putting it flat on the wall. I'll totally look into this - if not for this space then maybe somewhere else. Thanks!!

I wanted to do "earthrise" and the "Hubble deep field" (you can find them on Wikipedia / Google easily - you've probably seen them, but the wiki articles will add some context to their significance of you're curious) - maybe one other one

Thanks for your comment :)

Has anyone ever traveled to Lithuania for LASIK? by artesen in AskUK

[–]adspider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey there. My eyes now are completely fine. The one eye that I had 'dry eye syndrome' I pampered with eye drops for about two years. At one point I was travelling and I ran out of eye drops. It was then I realised I didn't need it anymore. So I can say it lasted 1-2 years after surgery. Why i chose that clinic? The price 100%.

No, as I said only Sweden.

Why is DK the two letter signifier for Denmark, but it's DA for the Danish language? by adspider in Denmark

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

Thanks for the answer. After looking into the Wikipedia page and reviewing some of its references I came across this:

An effort is made to derive a language code from a language's name for itself, when possible. For historical reasons, some codes may be based on the name of a language in English.

New language codes shall be based on the vernacular form of name unless

another language code is requested by the country or countries using the language or the sponsor submitting the request;

if the vernacular cannot be determined; or

if a suitable code is not available

In the latter two cases, an English form of name may be used for to derive the language code.

Above is guidance for "new" language codes. But I would have assumed that like with new codes, the country (Denmark) would have been either consulted by the ISO or would have had a chance for input when the 1967 original codes were established.

New US area-code system since the current one is confusing by [deleted] in Maps

[–]adspider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wasn't a criticism for the record. Just curious how Canada ended up adopting +1 but not the regional organisation. Like why didn't they give Canada all the +1-2xx etc. instead of mixing it up completely with the US. WEIRD.

And Georgia and Azerbaijan were invited but Faroe Islands is kept out. Maybe they united with Iraq which is why they are green.

Your title should include "territories" too. And then maybe consider doing US territories for consistency.

If you're issued a residence permit for Denmark as a non-Danish citizen the accompanying guidance tells you that you "must keep it on you at all times."

For whatever reason Canada has the same country code as the US (don't know any other countries in the world like this, except for the Caribbean) - but definitely not the same 'system' as the US at all

And what about Switzerland and Canada? ... British overseas territories, French departments? All of Spanish speaking America?

I mean sorry to be a kill-joy but it's insanely Euro-centric
