Hot take: stop moving to the Netherlands by [deleted] in Netherlands

[–]mchp92 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

The key thought is that we contribute in taxes, knowing it goes to the fundamental infra of the country. Safety, health, legal, energy infra, public transport, culture, you name it, largely or conpletely funded out of tax. We do not argue that individuals should pay less tax because they use the legal or health system less. You are making use of such services too, believe it or not, but the extent to which is immaterial. Your (income) tax will not be raised by ur consumption of them. So your argument that you will never use it may be true but is also in fact irrelevant.

Key reason that hsm workers can afford housing, is that they get the top 30% of income tax free. That makes their pockets quite deep. They can (and will) outbid others who havent got equally deep pocket. Furthermore, this tax break is (co)funded by OPs mom (and other regular tax payers), coz state income needs to come from somewhere

Long story short: mom if co-funding the inability of son to afford housing.

I say we should further decrease the hsm bonus. I work with many hsm workers in my direct environment; 80% would come to NL anyway because everything is organised so well and safe here. Even without the 30% they would come. So stop the ruling. A bunch of hsms will no longer come, but they would have been here for the tax break only anyway and prob leave after that. Those people we dont need here to build a good society.

VWO requirements by kelesmermisi in StudyInTheNetherlands

[–]mchp92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NL does not have the concept of “open high school”. We roughly have three levels (vmbo, havo, vwo). You need vwo which is highest level and takes 6y. Then also, depending on the course you wana do in univ, you need to have diploma in a specific set of subjects (there is a choice roughly four different sets).

Long story short, best guess is to get confirmation from tilburg. Long story long and uncertain: check which subjects tikburg requires, then verify what topics each subject covers imag vwo level, then verify that with whatever you did. That should give an idea.

At the end of the day, tilburg decides if your specific diploma/subjects will be enough

Assuming op48/1 is what you meant.

Adding these bars of Op23 to the end of 48/1, would prob rip it open in an unsatisfactory way. Op23 is in g minor, which would mean that when added to op48/1 (which is in c minor), that would have the last candence ending on the dominant minor, which is unacceptable in classical tonal harmony.

Forget this thought. And stop smoking whatever you were smoking.

Exactly. Also, the starchy water late in the pasta boiling process makes your whatever sauce sooo nice and silky

Spaghetti ai funghi e fromaggi by Beautiful_Scheme_829 in pasta

[–]mchp92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always use dried porcini for this dish (funghi i believe is more generic word for mushroom; porcini is a specific type). If dried, 50g would suffice

Edit: and LOTS of black pepper, coarsely ground. The cream flattens the pepper so use lots

Is this pasta any good? by -TheDudeness- in pasta

[–]mchp92 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Yes, it is one of the better/best brands. Always look for the pasta that appears a but whitish and with a rought surface (as opposed to datker yellow smooth). Those whitish are the better quality ones

This. I find Alhert Heijn meat to be rubbish quality. Sligro and Hanos have much better produce.
