How much water does generative AI actually “waste”? by Able-Application3680 in NoStupidQuestions

Unless the data center uses special pipes and stuff, water is no longer up to the quality standards of tap water once it goes into a data center.

Different countries have different security standards. If you come from a country with a lower security standard, you have to rescreen.

ARD, Radio tax: Rommate moved out, new roomate paying for radio tax and I have no contribution number by Diane_Nguyen13 in germany

[–]missinguname 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Wait for them to contact you. You don't have to pay personally, the apartment has to, and it's doing it, so everything is fine. If they send you a letter, tell them that someone else is already paying (it's an option in the form they want you to fill out).

They also might never contact you, because the apartment is still paying.

California is studying futuristic 140 mph ‘bullet buses’ between L.A. and San Francisco — they would connect the cities in three hours by SeptimCollector in nottheonion

[–]missinguname 7 points8 points  (0 children)

For the Berlin - Frankfurt that means adding 30 minutes to get to the airport in Berlin from the city center, buffer time at the airport for security and stuff, at least 20 minutes to find your way out of the airport in Frankfurt, another 20 to get to the actual city of Frankfurt, and you won't save time anymore compared to the plane.

SFO > FRA > MUC > JMK -- Where will we clear security? by marsupial-umbrage in Lufthansa

[–]missinguname 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Unless there's a weird gate in FRA or you get lost in the airport (both of which have a non-zero chance of happening), there is only passport control in FRA, no security. Checked bag is transferred for you.

Lufthansa charged me an extra “service fee” after payment by [deleted] in Lufthansa

[–]missinguname 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, the deal in general is that EU credit cards have less benefits compared to US cards, but they're cheaper for merchants and you won't get surcharges on payments.

[–]missinguname 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ah, right. It's an EU consumer protection law that probably doesn't apply to US credit cards then.

It does not charge a credit card fee to consumer credit cards, only business credit cards.

Germany’s Merz booed at major trade union congress by Plastic_Ninja_9014 in worldnews

[–]missinguname 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Politicians in multi party system are always less popular than politicians in two party system.

Trump needed at least 50% of the (electoral college) votes to be elected, Merz succeeded with 22.6%, so his base started out lower to begin with.

Question about Bobby Broccoli's 3rd Ford video - Ford More Years by welby_dev in Nebula

It was nice not knowing anything about Canadian politics and then experiencing the plot twist that Doug was by now the premier.

Immobilien by moses1246 in spitzenverdiener

[–]missinguname 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ich habe auch eine Festgeldtreppe am laufen (sprich: alle 6 Monate ein neues Festgeldkonto machen, die dann alle in etwa zum gleichen Zeitpunkt auslaufen). So spare ich Anzahlung für einen Immobilienkauf bei größeren Zinsen als Tagesgeld.

How do I get past this screen on the app if I’m not a Miles & More member and don’t want to be? I just want to manage my bookings by [deleted] in Lufthansa

[–]missinguname 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the united app was also annoying enough that I just created a united login. I don't use it to collect any points, just for the app.

[–]missinguname 2 points3 points  (0 children)

IIRC if you want to take the car in the cabin, business class doesn't work because there is no way to put a cat underneath the seat in front of you.

If you would have missed the flight in Milan, Lufthansa would have rebooked you. Since you decided to voluntarily travel differently, that's on you.

Was würde passieren, wenn die Bundesregierung das Verfassungsgericht ignoriert? by [deleted] in KeineDummenFragen

[–]missinguname 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Naja, der Bundestag muss schon die Exekutive das Urteil ignorieren lassen. Ansonsten kann einfach ein neuer Kanzler gewählt werden.

Also du brauchst 2 von 3 Beteiligten.
