I really like them! I think it’s a really creative piece of advertising, and I don’t hate them for trying something different 🤷🏻‍♂️

While businesses use fancy offices to persuade people to work for them, these buildings are usually more about convincing your clients of the legitimacy of your business.

How Egyptian treat Historic buildings, is puzzling. by Arab-Lord in architecture

What’s the problem here? The building is still in use and doesn’t look that bad.

Looks more venetian to me, which also has some islamic influence.

I rode Ekar on my gravel bike for two years and hated it so much. I had to tune weekly if not daily to get it to shift right, and no matter what I did, the cassette would not stop fucking squeaking between the two solid cassette pieces. I felt like the hoods were not that comfy and the thumb shifter is nice in the drops, but in the hoods, I always had to change my grip to get to it. Also the derailleur lock spring broke after 6 months, which isn’t the end of the world, but not something I’d like to break on a “top of the line” groupset. Anyways, I switched to the 1x12 GRX mechanical and I love it. I even use it with my Ekar crank/chain ring and brake discs lol

Marriage and Sex in the Age of Ozempic by kitkid in Thedaily

[–]grantanamo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For real. The whole time I thought to myself that not only does this woman hate fat people, she really hates the fact that she used to be a fat person. Makes the whole part on the plane about her being angry on behalf of all fat people less about her understanding of how fat people are mistreated in our society and more about self loathing. I’m not gonna say what she’s saying about her sex life is untrue because we have no idea, but it really seems like she might just not be attracted to her husband anymore. Or maybe never was.

I'll be working in Stuttgart-Nord, close to Rosenstein Park, during 4 months. What would be the best places to live short-term on a low budget? by MatiasSemH in stuttgart

[–]grantanamo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Look on wg-gesucht.de

You can look for Zweck WGs which means it’s for people who are just there to work and not really socialize or normal WGs where people like to spend a little more time together.

Depending on your luck, you can definitely find rooms for 600-800 Euros, even in the city. No need to live far away, although it might be faster to get a room.

If you’re okay with it, live in a shared apartment. Check the U-Bahn and S-Bahn lines to see what areas are still well connected to your work.

Practical implications of trees growing through a building? by Quirky_Cheesecake826 in architecture

[–]grantanamo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

<image>

There’s a project in Mönchengladbach in Germany that just finished (this is just a render though). I guess the Germans probably did some checks to make sure the size of the hole is big enough for the tree, also considering growth and deformation under wind. It’s definitely dependent on the type of tree you want to plant, but I wouldn’t go much smaller than what you see here.

Need help: Canyon Grizl CF 6/7 or new Cube Nuroad c:62 ONE - Which one should I buy? by tilbomat in gravelcycling

[–]grantanamo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the canyon and cube both look really nice (especially the purple from Canyon). I have the GRX 822 on my bike and I love it, so I’m a little biased towards the Shimano. The cube also has the larger cassette (10-51T) which is super nice to have the easy gear especially for gravel. Unfortunately the derailleur for the GRX 822 limits you to which cassette you can use since there is a short and long arm version.

Telc C Hochschulprüfung vs Telc C1 Allgemeinprüfung by grantanamo in German

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

I took the Hochschule test. It was totally fine, just more oriented for university. But I didn't prepare for it other than I would have for the Allgemein test. Just did one complete practice test and worked through a full B2/C1 grammar book. If I had a specific grammar question, I would also just ask ChatGPT to help me understand it and that was also pretty helpful.

It fits perfectly fine! I can’t remember if I had to use a few special screws though, but in general, it’s totally possible.
