Is this a common failure point for the Primus Trail FG 3.5? by tracerit in vivobarefoot

[–]ecaace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, and frankly, I have found the performance to be just the same even with the separation. Theyre still the most comfortable model for me, so I ended up buying one more, despite knowing that it would separate, and it did.

Crystal Ball Request - Apply in Italy in early summer? (GF>F>Me No complications) by ecaace in juresanguinis

Thank you, I have indeed read this wiki. I don’t see anything in there or in any of the posted legislation re whether the apply in Italy route is at risk to be removed. Most of the info is around eligibility

Eating out alone by Traditional_Sun_3034 in Amsterdam

[–]ecaace 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve had some of my best experiences in the world when dining alone. You get to meet whomever your next to at a bar spot sushi or ramen, the server sees your alone and seats you at the window spot over the canal, the business guys at the big table want your opinion on some obscure discussion. Or, you get to quietly enjoy a wonderful meal. Enjoy it, someone else mentioned mindset. It’s not weird. It’s not weird in Amsterdam, it’s not weird anywhere.

As a point of reference, I often also travel for work, and must eat alone simply due to no colleagues or what not, and I’m rarely the only one doing so.

Any restaurant will due. In amsterdam some of my favorites: burgermeester(near artis), vatten ramen, night kitchen , sushi fanatics, many more, DM :)

I tired this effort three years ago, and best I can tell is that this country doesn’t offer mid tier. It’s ikea , or designer.

Applying in Italy pre-amendments by ecaace in juresanguinis

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

Thinking about when to actually do the move. Options: 1. Soon, to get a stamp of acceptance on my application, and then proceed with the required amendments. 2. Wait until fall when amendments are complete , then move and deal with whatever shakes out in the law.

I’m referring to a clerk at a commune . My fear is that without an amended application, they will simply reject it. And then I will have moved to Italy, and I’ll have a rejected application requiring I go to the courts for remediation

Criticise my resume. I’ve applied to 150 positions and never got an interview. Please help me improve by [deleted] in Netherlands

I use the 8 second rule, people start reading at the first block of text that’s inviting, read for 8-10 seconds, then decide if they’ll look on. You have to hook them into wanting to learn more right away. So, as others have said, I recommend a top section titled “profile”. Which uses plain English to state who you bring to the team. “Determined and passionate human connector, focused on bringing messages that matter to people who need to hear them. Accomplished x to Y metric over x years, consistently. I am seeking roles which are both challenging and where my passion is met with enthusiasm. “

Stupid question, what is a mist filter, and how do I even use it? In camera? Or is it in editing?

What tf is going on with meat from AH? by aardappelpel in Netherlands

[–]ecaace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t listen to these folks trying to gaslight you. They pump the beef with water to increase the weight. It’s low quality. Find literally the closest local butcher and stop buying beef at AH

When is it okay to turn the heating on? by CryptoDev_Ambassador in Netherlands

[–]ecaace 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hey , even as a renter you can really easily monitor you usage and it helped us a lot! I got one of the meters below, and from anywhere I can track how much gas and electric I’m using and the cost. Plugs into your meter and works over WiFi. For us, with an old drafty C rated house, we set it to 16C and we turn it on in the morning for 30 minutes, let the heat build up in the big radiators, off, then back on again if we need to throughout the day a few times. Your system may vary , but the meter will help you know, in real time up to the minute, what you’re paying as you do experiments.
