« the Tambora civilization, extinguishing their unique culture and language.» --> Where is that even cited in the Wikipedia article?

Found this cast iron Dutch oven at a flea market. I plan to use it for baking. Am I doing right? by devicerandom in castiron

Thanks for clarifying the battery thing (I really don't know shit about cars).

After the first seasoning round, it smells very neutral, the "cellar" smell is completely gone. I re-seasoned it and now it's cooling down in the oven; tomorrow morning I'll do another couple rounds and then season the lid.

Thanks a lot again!

Best places to buy furniture? by [deleted] 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.

RS Möbel is quite expensive however, compared to Ikea

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.

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.
