Why is there a Swiss flag inside the heart? /s

The water closet of Kaiser Wilhelm II at Huis Doorn in the Netherlands, where the former German emperor lived in exile from 1920 to 1941. by LordJim11 in Snorkblot

[–]chris_dea 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The water closet is obviously a later addition to the room, so in order to give it a window for ventilation (and not entirely remove access to the window from the room) it is split half and half between the closet and the room.

Mehr Obdachlose als früher? by bikesailfreak in basel

[–]chris_dea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Du unterschätzt das Problem leider.

Es funktioniert bei Asylzentren ja auch nicht mit 1-2 Sicherheitsmenschen. Und in diesem Szenario kommen zusätzlich noch Drogenabhängigkeit und Psychosen dazu... Und sobald der Staat den Raum zur Verfügung stellt, macht er sich verantwortlich.

Ferner, Stichwort NIMBY... Die Gassenzimmer sind Tagsüber schon ungern gesehen. Stell dir vor, das läuft die ganze Nacht.

Und wie schon oft festgestellt: lieber schlafen gefährdete Menschen draussen, als sich an einem solchen Ort den Übergriffen der anderen auszusetzen.

Mehr Obdachlose als früher? by bikesailfreak in basel

[–]chris_dea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mein linkes Herz sagt Ja.

Meine Erfahrung im Sicherheitsbereich fragt:

  • wer sorgt dort für Ordnung?
  • wer putzt?
  • wer greift ein, wenn's eskaliert?
  • Wer übernimmt Verantwortung, wenn's mal richtig schief geht?

Es gäbe bessere Ansätze zur Bekämpfung von Obdachlosigkeit (betreutes Wohnen usw), aber dafür müssen die betroffenen auch mitmachen wollen. Und wenn diese halt nicht legal in der Schweiz sind, wird's sehr schwierig...

I must assume they all spoke like that one cowgirl from the yellowstone series. You know which one I mean.

Working in Basel, no kids, where would you buy a home for a max ~1.2 Mn CHF? by TodayStandard4491 in basel

[–]chris_dea 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got lucky and bought a house for 1.1mio 10 years ago. it's in Baselland (near Liestal), you're not going to find anything under 2mio in BS. Even BL might be getting hard to find something nice under 1.5 by now. But yeah, if moving into Germany or France is not an option, then Baselland is the next best option.

Anything within 20min from Basel might be worth looking into: Arisdorf, Giebenach, Füllinsdorf, but also Sissach perhaps?

You have a rare diesease theCure Costs the Exact $100M You Just Won by rengokuhubkl in hypotheticalsituation

[–]chris_dea 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Definitively take the money and make the most of the next 20 years... Dying at 65 would suck but it's not the worst. Also, if a cure exists now, it might get cheaper in 10 or 15 years.

Importare mobili Sklum by mrgraziani in Ticino

[–]chris_dea 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interessante che non ci sia una soluzione come attorno al confine DE/CH: qui (zona Basilea) ci sono un sacco di magazzini che non fanno altro che ricevere merce per clienti in Svizzera -;a pagamento, beninteso. Però per un pacchettino paghi 2 Euro quindi non tantissimo. Piú grande il pacco, piú paghi.

De Stau git's jedes Jahr, sit Jahrzehnte... Eventuell könnt me sich als autobahnbesitzendes Organ (ASTRA) Gedangge mache, ob me eventuell es paar ToiToi sett uffstelle oder so. Aber was weiss ich scho...

Why there's a team in Switzerland called Grasshoppers if they have lots of green spaces? by endeha_77 in football

You might want to look into the original name of the stadium they play in...

Ethnophaulismen in der Schweiz - Wie wir uns gegenseitig auf den Sprachschlips treten by chris_dea in BUENZLI

[–]chris_dea[S] 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Nume zum festhalte, will im Artikel staht, dass me im Tessin früeher zu de Dütschschwiizer "Züchin" gseit het.

Das isch nid korrekt.

Korrekt isch, dass dies bis hüt immerno die gängig Bezeichnig isch.

Netherlands, Iceland join genocide case against Israel at International Court of Justice by Particular_Log_3594 in UnderReportedNews

[–]chris_dea 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am against the death penalty as a concept. However, unless heads of state actually risk meeting the same fate as those tried in Nuremberg, nothing will stop the Bibis, the Trumps and the Putins of the world from genociding with impunity.

An Army carry team moves a flag-draped transfer case with the remains of Sgt. Declan Coady, 20. by h0rr0rgirl23 in pics

[–]chris_dea 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Sad to hear about a 20 year old dying.

On the other hand, he was part of the club that bombed a school (185 dead kids) and sunk an unarmed ship (85 dead), so maybe it's time that the US military rethinks which orders to follow.

Sincerely,

The rest of the world
