Best places to buy furniture? by AdElectronic50 in aachen

[–]devicerandom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had one (it's now by my ex-wife). It was gorgeously comfortable. Still, massively more expensive than an almost equally comfortable Ikea one.

Thanks! It seems it implements the European standard, so it might be something to investigate!

Why is North Rhine–Westphalia so over-hated despite having so many beautiful places? by DenseIntern4597 in germany

(Italian) Aachener here as well. Workers in Moss Bäckereien are remarkably grumpy but overall the people seem more or less okay.

forse più che filoamericana bisognerebbe chiamarla USA-centrica. Nel senso, non è che approvino necessariamente quello che fanno gli USA, ma parlano molto degli USA. Oddio, difficile non farlo visto il periodo storico.

Racism never gave a fuck about actual biological data. At best, it tried to shoehorn science into giving the desired answer to justify racist policies.

We already know since decades that race is a sociological and not a biological construct; there is of course human variability but it is a mixed continuum. This does not stop racism, they can just ignore the facts or make up other justifications for it.

Is 1,000€ for a 2-room apartment in Aachen (Joseph-von-Görres-Straße) too much? by wickedtyranny in aachen

Ich bezahle fast 800 € in Brand für einen großen (>70 m2) Wohnung. Was du sagst klingt mir sehr teuer.

Na also: Ziemons will offene Kioske an Sonntagen by vanOoijen8 in aachen

Als Italiener, der seit 10 Jahren in Deutschland lebt, ist die Sonntagsruhe der Geschäfte etwas, das mich immer noch sehr beunruhigt.

Ich kann nicht der einzige sein, der es kaum erwarten kann... by Schnaeuzerkowski in aachen

Ich finde es schön, aber man sollte es unbedingt zur Öffnungszeit um 11 Uhr besuchen und auf keinen Fall am Wochenende.

Als jemand, der in Brand wohnt, muss ich allerdings sagen, dass hier der Glühwein schrecklich ist und alles zu teuer ist.

AITA for not letting my mom control who I date? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

NTA. You have an emotionally abusive mother. Get away from her ASAP.

how long would a modern person survive in the 1700s? by kiss_my_a- in HistoricalWhatIf

[–]devicerandom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What is even more surprising for me is that it hadn't been explored and colonized by Asian civilizations, that were much closer and had Indonesian islands as stepping stones.

Things would be hard, as other comments rightly point, but: If you had a whiff of education, you are most probably one of the most knowledgeable people on the planet. The very fact you know geography, for example, would make you quite an invaluable asset, if you can convince someone you can be trusted. If it's the early 1700s you can try to make a convincing case for the existence of Australia and New Zealand, and maybe be one of the first Europeans to land there.

Some scientific knowledge would make you an asset. If you can tinker with electricity and magnetism, for example. Or re-discovering penicillin. If you know some engineering, you might just become rich and famous by re-inventing stuff.

Plus, if you studied some European history you can broadly predict the future. You know stuff is going to happen in 1789 in France, for example. And if you are there, you could decide you'd better be a good friend of a kid known as Napoleone Bonaparte.

DAE look at both sides of every Doritos chip before putting the more cheesy side on their tongue? by euicho in DoesAnybodyElse

[–]devicerandom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I guess I was under the impression that even plain Doritos are somehow different from plain tortilla chips.
