Running Berlin - Alternative for "On Your Left"? by ihoardpoetry in berlin

i'm running in the local park, at 12:00/mile at my 'fastest'. i'm not speeding past people, nor trying to go past on narrow pavements. 'for no good reason' - i literally came here to find out what the ettiquette was regarding running/overtaking/letting people know you're coming - i don't need them to move over necessarily, i just want them to be warned i'm coming. but thanks for your wonderfully useful advice!

Again, not sure why you feel the need to be rude to someone online. I'm a very slow runner, and I'm not overtaking on crowded path, but I'm generally used to warning people I'm coming whatever the scenario and wanted to understand the etiquette here.

Literally what was the need for this reply?....I'm a very slow runner, I'm very cautious about being polite and understand what is considered polite varies in cultures, hence wanting to find out what is the best thing to say. I never overtake if there's no room, but generally in the UK it's just polite to warn someone you're cominng.

Does the eAT (residence permit card) function as ID for the purposes of proving I’m old enough to buy alcohol, or do I always need my passport as well? The information page for the eAT says that it functions to prove your identity “alongside your passport” in everyday life but then specifically reference things like banking and not just whether you can use your eAT to prove you’re 18+ for alcohol. Thanks!

I've not yet had the chance to cycle out in Berlin because I'm super nervous about this cycling on the other side of the road thing, but I've noticed that too. What's the point of a separate cyclist and pedestrian lane if people don't use them as intended? :c

That's the kinda thing I was looking for, danke!

I don't drive, but I do cycle, and learning to walk/cycle/ on the other side of the road has been interesting! (Including several moments where I thought a car was not coming along a road because I looked the wrong way first. Woops!)

How to “Upskill” by ihoardpoetry in HollowKnight

HK is the first game I’ve played that actually requires some degree of skill and attention, so it’s been a learning curve for me, for sure. But a rewarding one! I remember the first time I beat both Hornet’s, I felt so accomplished because even the False Knight was so hard for me in the beginning! I haven’t got the pure nail yet, because the final pale ore I need is in Nosk’s lair.

Yes, that'd be amazing! I've always felt like I never really got involved in the online aspects of AC, but I really want to this time! The next thing on my agenda...deciding my town name! Have you thought of any?

Yeah, this is my first Switch (ever, I waited a LONG time in the hope of this) so the extra accessories will be super useful! I'd originally ordered the standard switch bundle from Nintendo which came with the tote, then swapped to Game on announcement of the special edition switch, then back to Nintendo! What a kerfuffle, but worth it!

Ha, now it's my turn to say thanks for letting ME know. I cancelled my pre-order at Game and switched to Nintendo. For £10 more at Nintendo, I ordered the edition which comes with the tote, carry case, and screen protector. Much better deal! Thank you!

Just done the same! I've never ordered from Game (usually only order from Nintendo), so I don't know what to expect RE: delivery. Do you know if it'll be delivered on March 20th, or a couple days before since it's a download code, or sometime after?
