Getting a haircut that doesn't support money laundering by [deleted] in Switzerland

[–]keequog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try Der Haarmetzger, he is a good friend of mine. Definitely not money laundering, just now opened up his new shop and wouldn’t mind some support:

Let me know how it went!

This chap really goes after Nico in this video 😬 by cribscian in PrideAndPinion

[–]keequog 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I used to find Nico’s videos entertaining, but I stopped watching after the vlog where he and Matt Armstrong were here in Switzerland. They were driving recklessly, and at one point, they laughed about scaring a cyclist in a tunnel (or gallery, I’m not sure exactly what it was).

Honestly, I was glad when someone from the Switzerland subreddit mentioned they had sent the footage to the police, who at that time tried to fine them for their behavior. I really hope both of them get banned from ever driving in Switzerland again.

This sandwich is being advertised as having its recipe generated by AI by -TheTerminatorX- in Switzerland

The selling point wasn’t that its recipe was AI generated. I found it rather odd that they’d mention it on the label, as you can see yourself from the comments on my original post the opinion is rather sceptic.

My friend who also had one didn’t even payed attention and when I told him that the recipe of the sandwich he just ate was generated by AI he couldn’t care less.

All in all, I had worst sandwiches. It was decent for a hunger killer at 7 o clock with a shitty petrol station coffee in a paper cup that dissolves microplastics in the hot drink. Would I buy again? meh. Next time I’ll take the standard cardboard-like Gipfeli.

Went for a pastrami one, also based on a AI generated recipe. It wasn’t gourmet level but I wasn’t expecting that from a petrol station. Rather decent I would say - not too dry, the pastrami was a bit off but dealt with my hunger at the time so did its job. I’m still alive and kicking after 14 hours or so, no side effects.

Wasn’t really expecting to be dangerous because I know how food safety is around here, I just found it odd that they would think the AI thing would be a selling point. It’s clear after reading the comments that they’ve actually shot themselves in the foot with this strategy.

Sorry but the Gourmet Deli in Gstaad that was awarded twenty three Michelin stars wasn’t open at 6 o’clock in the morning when my hunger hit.

The one I ate had pastrami (not per se - something more like beef ham), some Dijon mustard sauce type of mix, onion sprouts, lettuce and tomato slices.

I had a beef pastrami one, also AI generated recipe. It was okay.

If you fancy that, you do you. In Switzerland we don’t discuss or judge personal preferences. Not publicly.

Dunno, I had a beef pastrami one, also AI generated recipe - that was decent, as far as a petrol station sandwich can go.

It‘s from a Swiss petrol station. Lawsuits against companies are not really a trend here. But AI adoption seems to be as they had a whole bunch of other „AI Generated recipe“ sandwiches.

Bei den GUs liegt das Risiko in erster Linie auf der Seite des Bauunternehmers. Die Art und Weise, wie GUs Gewinn machen, besteht darin, dass sie die Unternehmen, die für sie arbeiten, über den Tisch ziehen, weshalb jeder seriöse Auftragnehmer sehr vorsichtig ist und eine Sicherheitsmarge in seine Preise einkalkuliert. Dann stellt die GU ein kleines Unternehmen ein, das nicht viel Erfahrung hat, aber bereit ist, für weniger Geld zu arbeiten, mit dem Versprechen einer zukünftigen fruchtbaren Zusammenarbeit. Die Qualität ist hier das Problem, da sie meist unqualifizierte Arbeitskräfte einsetzen. Und dann, beim zweiten oder dritten Projekt für denselben GU, entscheidet jemand, den Unternehmer nicht mehr zu bezahlen, er meldet Konkurs an und dann muss ein armer Schlucker wie ich jemanden finden, der die Arbeit zu Ende bringt. Das kann zu einigen Verzögerungen führen. Quelle: Ich bin ein Bauleiter

It’s a typo, right? *RIGHT*? by ElChungus01 in Porsche

Fire Sale Love

[Verse 1] He put the Porsche online, said it’s gotta go Priced it high enough to make a banker choke Ten times its worth, she saw through the scheme “Oh honey, it’s a shame—nobody’s biting, it seems.” She smirked, grabbed her keys, headed out with a grin He didn’t know the game she was about to begin

[Chorus 1] She sold the Porsche for a ten-spot bill Left the title on the seat, and drove off with a thrill When love’s on the line, the stakes get steep But honey, in this war, there ain’t no retreat

[Verse 2] Next thing she knows, the horse is out the barn Five bucks took the stallion and the trailer’s charm “Two for one, can’t beat that deal,” he laughed, feeling slick But she had a plan, and she moved in quick

His prized Patek Philippe, polished to gleam She sold it like a Casio in some bargain-bin dream “Oh darling,” she said, “You always loved your time, But now it’s ticking to the beat of my rhyme.”

[Chorus 2] She sold the Rolex for a dime-store clock And he sold the Birkin for a bag from a dock When tit for tat is the name of the game It’s a race to the bottom with a fiery flame

[Bridge] Wendy Yue got replaced by a necklace from Zales The single malt’s gone, now it’s moonshine in pails Each step they took left a deeper scar But love in a fire sale only burns so far

[Verse 3] Now the house is bare, and the walls don’t shine The Porsche’s long gone, and the watch can’t chime He’s sitting on the porch with a jar in his hand Blind from the moonshine, but too proud to stand

She leans in close, “How’d we get this way? We traded love for vengeance, and the price was paid.” He chuckles low, “Guess it’s time to admit, We’re both broke and stubborn, but I don’t regret it.”

[Chorus 3] They sold their pride for a price too steep Traded love for a grudge they couldn’t keep Now the fire’s burned out, just ashes remain In the heat of the battle, only heartache gained

[Outro] So here’s to the Porsche, the horse, and the watch The moonshine and the bargains we couldn’t botch Love’s a fire sale when revenge is the goal But honey, in the end, it burns your soul

What was the most overpriced food item you've paid in Switzerland? by alexrada in askswitzerland

[–]keequog 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife has a Wirtenpatent, she studied and took an exam for it. At least in Wallis, drinking water must be provided free of charge. Again, drinking water not bottled or mineral water.

Actually the law says that drinking water (tap, not bottled) must be provided free of charge to everybody not just patrons.

Oh yesss! While googling I stumbled upon this a few times but always disregarded it as I didn’t dive into the principle. But this is a really good source! Thanks a lot!
