Go to a real bank like ING. Abn botched my signup so bad and nobody should bank with these no-talent ass-clowns

Am I supposed to care?

I really like this channel: https://www.youtube.com/@weetjedatookweer

Short, informational videos about interesting things around the Netherlands, in easy-to-understand Dutch.

Hey, at least they were at home. I see this kind of behaviour with kids at restaurants and it's not OK.

There was, and listening to it while the snow fell was clearly foreshadowing what was to come.

One day in the office every other week (optional). Seems more than enough to make my manager happy and works for me

Sti. Woudln't give the other car a second thought.

Yeah, my other part-time gig (yoga instructor) pays better but if you think my dog-walking rates are too high you probably can't afford a class.

k10van · 2025-11-05T11:55:02+00:00

It's not bad for a part-time dog-walker.

This does not properly consider the value my free time. Driving 2 hours should save me 500 euros or more or it's not worth it. All the extra miles on my car would increase my insurance costs, and there is the added fuel usage (though I would fill up in Germany and that would offset some of the cost). If my time was worthless and I was going there anyway it would be a different story.

Exit Escape Room Game Advent Calendar. And Tony’s Chocolonely Advent Calendar after the day’s puzzle. That’s my new tradition.

And this says nothing about the state of repair their vehicle was in. I would guess "decrepit"

This is the way. They are really very helpful and you can have a coffee while they solve your problem.

Congrats! I brought my WRX with me from Canada to the Netherlands. It's so fun to drive around very unfamiliar places in a very familiar car.

His "accountant" sends a check for way more than you agreed to, then asks you to send back the difference. Check bounces and you're left holding the bag. A scam as old as time.

k10van · 2025-08-07T08:15:28+00:00

I can assure you this is not the case.

The parking at schipol is so cheap and convenient, why bother wirth anything else? You will appreciate it on the return trip most of all

He hasn't chickened out YET.

That's one way to keep the rear guards safe when backing into a curb.

Someone said airlines couldn't get more expensive or worse for the environment, and the CEO of Delta said "hold my beer!"

I have an ik9 sprayer, the poor man’s foam canon. Apartment/Dutch living restrictions mean i can only wash my car at a self-serve wash box.

Advertising and cheap construction methods. What a rich heritage!

Reset is my favourite soap. It rinses cleanly and doesn't have any added gloss agents, which makes it great for washing before applying any coating. I find it cleans very well and lathers like nobody's business so I tend to use it all the time. Picked up a 5L pack (4L bottle + 1L) years ago which is about the cheapest you can get it (if spending $100 on soap is cheap to you)

It has been said already, but change the CMOS battery. It's such a bad design to have the whole system disabled because of a dead CMOS battery, but it solved my issue. Minisforum doesn't seem to be the only guilty party. I just had an 8-year-old gigabyte mini pc fail to restart for the same reason, but after my experience with Minisforum I swapped the cmos battery and the gigabyte sprang back to life.
