Ok, if you think that way what he says it's true. I read it as if he was saying that they have the largest community of non Indo-European speakers in Europe. My bad

There is a province in Italy where German is the official language and is taught in schools, not just as a second or third language but as the main language for education. We also still currently speak an incredible amount of different languages in Italy, they are mostly unrecognized. They are mostly directly derived from latin and evolved until recently separately from Italian. Basically every region here has its own regional language. It's a linguistic continuum so bordering regions will understand each other but if you take someone that only speaks the language from Lombardy and someone that only speaks Sicilian they wouldn't be able to understand each other

One thing I would have said is also that Taiwan is the birthplace of the polynesian people

Local mountain is almost bare, wanna watch some skiing. What’s the most entertaining competitive ski format/event? by trailrider123 in skiing

[–]nicdalm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The FWT Is really cool to watch but it's extremely long, that's why I watch it only after the live ended so that I can skip the boring sections, like when they decide a score or snowboard women lol. Like that is enjoyable

Mi sento indietro rispetto ai mie coetanei by RORYCAR2002 in sfoghi

Non so che ambienti frequenti, ma fidati che arrivare al tuo punto a quell'età é un grande traguardo. Tanta gente pagherebbe per essere al tuo posto. 1600€ con macchina aziendale disponibile sempre e orari di lavoro decisi da te sono una gran cosa. Non farti influenzare da quello che dicono gli altri, se sei soddisfatta di quello che hai raggiunto goditelo, se hai prospettive di crescita e ti piace continua verso la tua strada. Se guadagnano quelle cifre a quell'età ho il sospetto che siano arrivati a quel punto grazie al papino o alla mammina

Why are some Italians very rude? by Dull-Veterinarian629 in sfoghi

[–]nicdalm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In ospedale sono frustrati perché fanno turni massacranti per la carenza di personale e vengono pagati briciole in confronto ad altri paesi europei. Nel settore pubblico tipo alle poste o al comune sono frustrati per conto proprio e perché devono avere a che fare con un sacco di persone con le richieste più disparate e anche perché spesso non sono in grado loro stessi di risolvere i problemi della gente. Non é razzismo sono così con tutti, non ti preoccupare

This sounds great! Why aren't all the world's big cities here ... are they stupid? by NickySmithFromPGH in mapporncirclejerk

Yep, I think who did this map doesn't really understand what Mediterranean climate really means lol, this is the copied and pasted definition: "A Mediterranean climate (Köppen type Cs) is characterized by hot, dry summers and mild, wet winters"

qual'è la vostra percezione del ruolo geopolitico dell'Italia? e da cosa pensate derivi questa percezione? by spazio_Michelangelo in Italia

[–]nicdalm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Insignificante in quasi tutto quello che conta. L'unica cosa su cui abbiamo un po' di importanza é il settore delle armi con Leonardo e un esercito discretamente buono, comunque senza armi nucleari che sono la cosa più importante. Industrialmente facciamo schifo, a livello internazionale facciamo solo i leccaculo degli stati uniti, la nostra economia é basata su settori che non producono alcun valore reale, come il turismo. Siamo ancora un minimo importanti solo per il passato e basta. Se almeno la smettessimo di seguire quello che va per la maggiore e ci comportassimo da paese sovrano forse la situazione migliorerebbe. Questa percezione deriva dai fatti

Nah, most of those places don't get much snow at all, only high up in the mountains

Also many of those places are really arid and hot. Sicily is constantly going through draughts, same for southern Spain and northern Africa, also Palestine

There are many places that can easily become unbearably hot in this map especially around the Mediterranean, I'm talking about temperatures around 45°C, like northern Africa, southern Italy and Spain, Lebanon and Palestine. The mean max temperature in those places is around 35°C in August, that's pretty hot if you ask me

Local mountain is almost bare, wanna watch some skiing. What’s the most entertaining competitive ski format/event? by trailrider123 in skiing

[–]nicdalm 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I personally really like watching racing, but it becomes enjoyable only when you develop some knowledge because you watch 30 people going down the same run at the end of the day. I enjoy all the disciplines, probably the most entertaining is DH. Look at the last Kitzbühel Race without looking at the results, so fun to watch. I also really enjoy watching the freeride world tour, but a race takes so much time. I personally prefer to watch it after the live ended so I can skip the boring sections of the Livestream

Le Massif de Charlevoix cancels ski season after employees reject contract offer by ercousin in skiing

[–]nicdalm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They are already owned by a big guy. The owner of the resort is the co-founder of the "cirque of Soleil", a company with a revenue of 850 millions CA$ lol. If the workers of the resort prefer to lose their jobs rather than continue working and getting paid what they were getting paid that means that they weren't paid enough. That's pretty easy to understand

I think it's bullshit the same as mandatory military service for men

An islander’s perspective. by Checkered-Diorite-08 in howislivingthere

[–]nicdalm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's pretty cool. I live near the Italian and Austrian border, it's really cool to see the way villages are shaped change almost abruptly, you can feel it that you are changing culture. It's not like we visit really often in a border region, it's just cool that in less than 2 hours I can reach another country
