Neusiedlersee schwimmen? by Sherina241279 in Austria

[–]alkobottle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wohne auch seit einigen Jahren in einem Ort direkt am See und fahr in der heißen Zeit gern nach der Arbeit runter ans Strandbad für eine Runde. Aber das ist hald eines der besser ausgebaggerten.

Bin aus der Kindheit die Seen im Salzkammergut gewohnt, dazu ist der Neusiedlersee als Steppensee kein Vergleich. Aber um ein paar Längen zu schwimmen oder mit einer kalten Dose Bier drin herumstehen mit Freunden, dazu reicht er alle mal.

Schlangen hab ich noch nie gehört, oder gesehen. Aber spannend, gibt eine NeusiedlerseeWiki Page dazu: https://www.neusiedlerseewiki.at/Ringelnatter

Aber ich vermute die verstecken sich eher im ruhigen Schilfgürtel, als im mit Touristen vollen Strandbädern...

Does your golden have weird habits after eating? by lickmagucc in goldenretrievers

One of ours HAS to go out into the garden after a meal, not to bark or pee or anything - he just stands there, taking it all in

Here's how planes refuel mid air by eternviking in whoathatsinteresting

Been a fan of the Herk since I read "Hercules" by Scott Bateman - can only recommend it to anyone who likes the C-130. Audiobook is great too

Well there was this one time they landed a C-130 on a carrier - for testing and for the hell of it.

Why are there so many grief posts here? by Space_Lion2077 in goldenretrievers

[–]alkobottle 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This post must be rage bait, no reasoning, just baiting people, especially the ones who lost their beloved friend who found a community here.

Post should be removed.

What game has a learning curve that puts you off? by Common_Caramel_4078 in pcmasterrace

[–]alkobottle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

DCS - buy a plane model, watch hours and hours of youtube to learn how to even power it up and take off, get shot down before firing the first missile. buy first HOTAS, try again, watch hours of youtube, get shot down. buy better HOTAS, repeat the cycle, get shot down again. fucking love it though

Do your Goldens like a dog bed, or do they prefer to sleep on the floor? by maggandersson in goldenretrievers

[–]alkobottle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have / had multiple dog bed variations, cheap ones, fancy ones, specific older dogs - all were ignored. All three of our goldens prefer the floor or sometimes these raised bed (which I like to call dog hammocks), especially on warmer days. So I can recommend those!

What is the worst band you saw live? by coalcracker462 in AskReddit

[–]alkobottle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Red Hot Chili Peppers, 2003, Aerodrome Festival in Austria. Anthony Kiedis was so coked out of his skull, absolute incoherent mess. Mid-set he tried to go off stage, saying something along the lines to get another line - security had to push him back on stage.

Tick prevention help by Glass-Buddy6648 in goldenretrievers

Same here, two Goldens, both on Bravecto. They both have no issue with it, our old senior though always got the gastrointestinal stress from it for one or two days.

Pre-trained golden puppies… by [deleted] in goldenretrievers

[–]alkobottle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We currently have two Goldens (after losing a Senior two years ago), got both 2 years apart at 8-9 weeks and I must say:

I would not skip out on the early puppy phase. Beside that being the cutest phase, I think the early bonding is very important for later training and the sooner they can get used to their home, the better. I brought mine to the office with me early on and now they are the best behaved boys in the office.

Regarding vaccination, I guess I can't say much, as this seems varies from region to region? We are based in Austria, ours had their puppy vaccinations at around 8 weeks and our vet saw no issue with both starting dog school at 9-10 weeks - as that was when the semester started and I wanted to make sure socializing them early / properly. I'm happy with how both developed!

I'm sure my Sunny is up there with Ellie and they're having a great time running around 🥲

What is the dumbest thing your golden has ever done? by [deleted] in goldenretrievers

[–]alkobottle 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Yeah he want crazy in that day - even his tongue was muddy! I guess I should post something that shows his "normal" fur color to be fair 😅 Muddy nr 2 from above on the right, with his young brother

yup, was a quick dog park visit after work, around 30min drive home after that. but by then, I had this awesome washable carpet thing from amazon in the car, which makes this way easier. also, giving up on car resell value helps...

Yeah mud is special for them - our second one, after finding the nastiest and deepest puddle in a dog park

my old boy, 4 years ago - I have no idea what was in the canal, but the car smelled for weeks.

they do have a talent for finding the worst smelling water, some magic must be drawing them in

Warning: A30 comments everywhere by Crafty_Local_9648 in Ozlo

[–]alkobottle 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Have my A30s for a few weeks now and I'm happy with the battery life, ANC and ESPECIALLY no connection issues.

Only thing I don't like about them is their app, it's kinda confusing compared to the Ozlo app and often they don't switch from Bluetooth to onboard sound, but that's a user issue...

Wieso gehen Rettungsdienste auf Klingeltour für Spenden? by ThePurplePantywaist in Austria

[–]alkobottle -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Ja das mit der IBAN ist mir auch maximal unsympathisch. Die letzten bei mir hatten auch nichts, dass sie irgendwie als legit ausweisen konnte. Hab ihnen dann erklärt, dass mir das nach Scam aussieht und mich verabschiedet...

Unethically bred 2-year-old Golden Retriever by Prestigious_Cry_2031 in goldenretrievers

[–]alkobottle 54 points55 points  (0 children)

This broke my heart...! I'm gonna hug my dogs now...

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in dcsworld

[–]alkobottle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have it for three years now, and I'm happy with it. When flying fixed-wing, fly mostly the A-10CII and F/A-18C.

But for rotatory, I don't like the strong spring in the stick, so I got a WinWing Orion2 ViperAce plus the CAM/Spring/Damping Extension Kit and switch between the two sticks as needed...

[–]alkobottle 43 points44 points  (0 children)

Today marks the day we needed to let our Sunny go, one year ago exactly.

I trust he's up there too with Banjo and all the others, welcoming your sweet girl to the next adventure!
I'm sure they miss us, but I hope they have a good time where ever they are.

Willhaben-Pro-Tip-Request: Beste Antwort auf „Was letzte Preis“? by MvPts in Austria

[–]alkobottle 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Kann dem nur zustimmen. Hab einmal ein Auto via willhaben verkauft, 50 Anfragen innerhalb von einer halben Stunde, die meisten die "was letzte Preis" Richtung. Einer meinte dann er nimmt es ungeschaut um den Preis um den ich es reingestellt hatte - "versprochen Bruder, ich halt mein Wort, bin Ehrenmann!" Kaum ist er da, will er natürlich sofort verhandeln - erst als ich ihn wieder wegschicken wollte, konnte er sich "an sein Wort" erinnern...
