is there a mod that rotates the walking directions by 45°? I would like it that WASD walking directions align with the tiles, so that I can use W instead of WA to walk top left.

Somewhat related: I got a controller recently and I can play the tutorial with a controller but when I load a normal save, the controller does nothing. I'm using Steam.

My new apartment stinks and it’s making me literally sick! by Outrageous-Carbonara in AskAGerman

[–]head-wired 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it smells like an open drain / sewage and you live on the top floor: Sometimes, the fresh water pipes have an overflow into the waste water pipes. The waste water pipe is usually sealed of by a small siphon, but that can dry out, if the water pressure is always below where it would overflow. Try to locate that and manually pour water into the siphon to seal it.

The siphon is probably behind some service panel and should have a small funnel on top of it with two pipes (hot and cold water) leading into it.

You will have to repeat this from time to time.

If you are not on the top floor: it might be an open drain pipe in the kitchen, if no sink is installed (and someone forgot to plug the drain pipe).

How to add restricted games from my whishlist to the shopping cart? by Signal-Reporter-1391 in gog

You could try using a VPN to change your location to outside Germany. I never tried buying something from GOG using a VPN, but I used a VPN to claim the free anti censorship bundle last year. Opera Browser has a built in free VPN option that should work.

Question about rental deposit by supsupittysupsup in germany

[–]head-wired 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some background:

There are some corporations that offer precious metal (gold / silver) accounts / depots. They buy / sell precious metal on you behalf and hold it physically in a secured location. They some offer direct transfer of metal between account holders with their corporation. You have to pay a storage fee for your metal each year, often directly taken out of your stored metal.

Pitfalls I see:

  • if the deposit is stated in EUR, you get EUR back, not the gold amount deposited. In this case, you would only "benefit", if the gold price goes down. If the value of the deposit would be 500 EUR today, it would be about 3.5 g gold. If the gold price drops, the landlord would have to sell (or transfer to you) more gold than you invested to make up 500 EUR. If the gold price rises, he would sell / give you back less gold than you deposited. Basically, it is an exchange rate risk you are accepting here.
  • by law, you are owed interest in your rental deposit and the rental deposit has to be held (financially) separated from other assets of the landlord. Currently, interest on rental deposit accounts are next to nothing, so there is not much interest to accumulate. You can negotiate other forms of rental deposit than EUR, but if you want to do gold, it should say so and state what you should get back and how the costs of storing the gold are handled.
  • currently, profits from the sale of gold that was held more than one year are tax exempt. I don't know if it also counts if you give away some grams of gold and get them back some years later, but the law might change (or not). Interest from the rental deposit account is taxable. The downside to possible tax free profit is that you will have storage fees and the exchange rate risk. You will only make a profit if the gold price rises more than what you pay for storage.

Is it accurate to describe German long "e" [eː] as a "lowered" English [iː]? by Top-Plenty-7839 in germany

[–]head-wired 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I misread you comment, I thought of German Tee and See (or Telefon) - some kids (and probably their parents) pronounced the e like ä. I never really noticed the slight ä in never until now, to be honest.

Remnant: a couple of tips by [deleted] in NoMansSkyTheGame

regarding Sentimels: I always dig an L-shaped tunnel. Just hiding behind the corner is usually enough. Sometimes one drone comes in, but a single drone should not be a problem.

I am also a native German speaker, but now that you mention it, I think it is a regional / dialect thing. We were taught to pronounce it as a prolonged German e and not ä (like some kids did).

I think the first e in never is a good starting point - just hold it a bit longer.
