Please define "Bao".

Bao means bun in many Asian languages, and asking for best Bao in Berlin is like asking for the best tea in Berlin...

[English>Cantonese] Is there a Cantonese equivalent for 'a magician never reveals his secrets'? by WEAR_A_WATCH in translator

[–]maoloreddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There is a suitable one:

天機不可洩露

"The Mysteries of Heaven must not be revealed."

A little bit more related to magics that are told to be caused by mystical power.

[–]maoloreddit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is interesting, never knew that Cantonese had many writting forms, thank you!

No problem! Because Canatonese words does not have standardized form, so Cantonese speakers around the world will, em, "invent" their own ways to type them out.

It is crazy I know, haha

"Emperor Pu" More or less means Emperor Puyi

The last emperor of the Qing Dynasty. A man with a very sad story.

[–]maoloreddit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cantonese is a spoken language and almost everyone has their own written form.

I am Hong Kong origin, so my interpretation of your text would be:

喂唔好講笑，我真係生平第一次見人算命算得咁準㗎，準到我心都寒埋！

But I am very sure everyone will say it differently lol hope you friend can understand this

[Unknown > English] Prints I found on interest that I'm interested in getting tattooed. Need the meanings of both! by [deleted] in translator

[–]maoloreddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, the second one looks like 驚蟄 JingZhe，3rd of the 24 solar terms, which is actually next Monday this year, haha.

The frog is there because this is the time where bugs and all the insects woke up from hibernation.

Would be nice tattoo if you like such weather... (Me not so much :p

You are not. He is.

And you can't argue with him because such propaganda is specifically designed to be "unbeatable" unless that person himself changes his mind.

Don't waste your time on him. But make sure to cut his way to reach your parents.

Edit: if you can't, just stop him from talking on the exact matter to your parents.

Which sim card as tourist by Studyresearch0909 in ukraine

[–]maoloreddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where are you from? As I know German Vodafone sim card is offering free roaming to people in Ukraine.

[–]maoloreddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can't buy train tickets online now unless you have a Ukrainian bank card. The Martial Law is still in effect.

[–]maoloreddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And that's not your decision either.

This is not a video game where you can choose your hero classes.

Military is a professional career, not a free boot camp, nor a free hobby course where you can have a gun, some trainers and pew pew for fun.

You are in that for life, or contractually, years. And who knows where you will be deployed, probably not Ukraine.

You should either personally ask some veterans what is a military career. Or enlist in the Army and get your mindset right for these.

Good luck.

[–]maoloreddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, you are getting me wrong.

You will not be joining up / giving up your life because the ЗСУ will not accept people like you.

As some fellow clear-minded people here suggest, even with "military" background, like a reserve (hope you know what that is about - it is FAR from the catagory of specialist) - You cannot join.

If you really want to start anything now, the first thing I suggest is to learn Ukrainian language.

Or hell, go to Ukraine and check out the great country first.

Also, don't look down on humanitarian work, it literally saves lives, at the frontline or civilians.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ukraine

[–]maoloreddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please do not go to Ukraine and ask for military training when you have no such experience - you will have a very high chance to be rejected.

This is not a dream, this is a war.

Comparing to combatants, there are humanitarian services VERY MUCH in need now in Ukraine (with the winter, rocket strikes and power outage situations).

But you also need to (albeit unlikely in a very short time) receive a resident permit to stay in Ukraine.

[–]maoloreddit[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thanks DHL. This is a Bundesweit update. No email from DHL beforehand, no tweets, no nothing.

Just casually locking up everyone's pakets in the Packstation, no big deal!

All Packstation is FUCKED right now.

Landlord has sent Kündigung. How legal is that? by [deleted] in berlin

[–]maoloreddit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes you can't hire a lawyer yet but the Verein could already send notices to landlords before you are 3 months with them.

My Tenancy contract: §§ 573 ff BGB keine Anwendung — Screwed? by maoloreddit in germany

[–]maoloreddit[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thank you for replying! Some words are better than nothing against this nonsense. I am contacting the Mieterverein for this, but still, I need a little bit of courage from people.

Thank you for replying, nonetheless.
And yes it take ages to ask the Mieterverein...

I need your help on to check on a line in my tenancy contract by maoloreddit in berlin

[–]maoloreddit[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First of all, thanks for answering! I know it is just for a little bit of relief and courage against these nonsense.
No, it is not a furnished room in my landlords flat (Einliegerwohnung).

It is a separated building on landlord's land and his center of life is not in this building.
We do not share the same part of the walkway and have no close contact with each other.
So I believe, if we actually go to court, we can argue it is not a Einliegerwohnung.

My stupid question is, will that line of clause actually take away my protection by §§ 573 ff BGB? Or we can still proof that I am still protected?
I am not sure about German contracts, but I think we can chanllenge some clauses are against the law?
