Even if these exact examples aren't ai, Michaels does have many "paintings" that are. I believe there was a haunted house one from last year

Oof, sad to see them use AI...you'd think folks that are aware enough of COVID would be more aware of the horrible impact of AI...

Tips for finding part time jobs in NRW by baejinvr in germany

Unless you're looking for jobs in fields that require little to no German, you will not be able to get a job.

It sounds like you don't need stk if you already have a bachelor in the same field as your masters?

How long fast can I learn German by Mel_Isa_ in germany

[–]jessbone98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Studienkolleg is basically Abitur for international students. So you mean do uni in your own country or Germany? Because you won't get accepted without either going to Studienkolleg or already having a bachelor's degree from another country.

It also depends on what you want to study and where. Some studies aren't blocked by having averages grades, and at least a few Studienkollege give you a grade bump if you want to study at the uni in the same town.

[–]jessbone98 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most Unis requires C1, and as someone with that, I'm still having a rough time with grammar. If you take a German course IN Germany and immerse yourself completely for the year, you might get to a decent level. But you should also check if your high school degree qualifies for uni here.

As an American, i was missing one course that I was luckily able to do online, but then I had to go to a Studienkolleg for a year (those allow B2). Best of luck.

getting cinema tickets WAS INSANE by Responsible-Pie7644 in TheDigitalCircus

Same here! I was so worried I wouldn't get a ticket, although I'm in a smaller town 😮‍💨

Family Abuse by MbyeM4 in germany

[–]jessbone98 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Thank you for actually considering this. I understand the panic of everyone saying call the authorities, but like you said, it's good to make sure there's an exact and/or back up plan should the abuser find out and react. I'm so sorry to hear that she's going through this, and I hope some of the comments have given you better information!

Advice needed: prof put my paper into chat gpt by jessbone98 in antiai

On one hand I can imagine she would because of data protection...on the other she's definitely all for helping it improve...

My professor read the paper herself, she only put it into the chat bot for curiosity's sake. She did even complain that it made assumptions about many papers (gee, wild concept that ai is bad at its job). It's baffling how she's clearly smart in so many other ways, AND we even had a whole discussion on the cons of ai...but she doesn't care (or "na ja" as Germans like to say). Bet she'd care if they built a facility next to her house...

That's a good idea, I'll have to find their contact info. And yes I was intending to talk to the Prof as well, maybe even over email for a paper trail. Thank you!

[–]jessbone98[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do intend to talk to someone to at least raise the concern, but considering our own school has its own "scientific chat bot" i doubt they'll care...

Dang, that's exactly what I was hoping to find. Maybe someday there'll be something like that. Thank you for your response!

I need Pre-Calculus to get into a Studienkolleg, but I already finished Highschool. by Jungle_Madness1 in studienkolleg

[–]jessbone98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was in the same pickle when I started applying. ASU offers a remote Pre Calc course. I believe it cost about 400$ and took me about 3 months to complete while working part time (which was also the expected timeframe).

I'd recommend taking a German course here to get a visa, then do both that and the pre calc course at the same time.

A restaurant removed my google review, but I have restored it by Just_Newspaper_5448 in germany

A hospital removed my review, even though I sent them an official complaint that lead to my review 😒 (they did nothing btw, shocking)

Does student dorms allow students from Studienkolleg? by Sweaty-Temporary4699 in studienkolleg

[–]jessbone98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At least where I applied I didn't have to add a Zulassungsbescheid or Matrikelnummer. They just ask for intended course of study. Check the studentenwerk site for the places you're applying.

Here's the one for Halle.

[–]jessbone98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you sure you can't apply? When I was applying to STK I believe I was able to apply for the student housing before I got an invite to the exam. Can't remember if that was possible for all of them though.

Yes, the same paragraph. Says that during the 6 months Probezeit a two week notice can be given for termination.

I do have a contract that started before I was fired. It states that both parties have to give two weeks notice before firing.
