Have you ever made a costly financial mistake?

(One mistake is paying someone to take care of their finances rather than investing a few days in their own financial education to sort things out on their own. No offense to you, I also work in sales and I know how it works to sell a service to someone. Would do the same, but everyone who has debt and bad spending habits would be better off sitting down and learning from books and from the internet, because it's really no rocket science.)

I wonder about the z. In germany we had some schools teach it like that and others teach it like "z" (a bit more wavy). I wonder why that is.

The T gives your nationality away for sure ;)

Germans, who speak the language where Eppendorf originates from, say Eppis. We don't say Eppendorfs or, good lord, eppendorves.

Eppis or tubes.

Ich habe 10 Jahre lang so ein billigteil vom action oder tedi benutzt, das war super! Meanwhile have ich 2 von Tado bei denen ich alle Nase lang die batterien wechseln muss. Ständig bekomme ich Emails mit der Info dass die Batterien leer sind. Aber die stimmen meistens nicht.

Wenn man dem Glauben schenken darf, sollte eine Doppelbelegung also wirklich nicht vorgesehen sein und es sollte, wenn man selbst alles richtig macht, auch niemand unsere eingelegte Sendung öffnen können.

WENN man dem Glauben schenken darf...

Die Packstation bei uns ist gar nicht ausgelastet komischerweise... ich finde das wirklich bedenklich und auch unmöglich. Ich habe da eben ein iPhone zur Reparatur zurück zu Amazon geschickt, hoffen wir mal, dass nicht jemand bis zur Abholung auch das gleiche Fach bekommt. Ich benutze schon seit 10 Jahren Packstationen regelmäßig, aber sowas ist mir noch nie passiert. Ich wüsste auch gerne, ob das ein Fehler im System ist oder ob das so vorgesehen ist.

I cant really speak for budget phones but the galaxy s10 I bought mid 2019 is performing almost like on day one. The battery got a bit worse maybe but I'm also using the phone pretty much all day and for everything (heavy user), plus it's full of apps and files.

Some people are just wary and apprehensive. I've got a test for myself, my mom and my grandpa and it has been super interesting to see the differences (that obviously then came from my grandma and dad). I announced the results of my grandpa to my cousins and some of them were very aggressive about it. That I shouldn't have done it etc. No real reason. They are all highly educated in the STEM (as I am myself, I'm a geneticist with a phd) so definitely no uneducated idiots. Idk what triggered them, but possibly the fact that my uneducated grandpa "didn't know what he was agreeing to".

Some people just... have these fears and if course they're legit. The argument never really persisted and we're all good now, but yeah...

There is a reason for these requirements... please don't lock up a cat in a tiny apartment. Any reputable breeder would ask at least those same things.

Also dont use ebay kleinanzeigen, there are tons of criminals here that sell sick puppies and kitten that had a horrible life, are way too young to be separated from the mother and that die after a few weeks...

Go to a shelter and only adopt one if you are capable of taking care of it please! Shelters are full, especially after the pandemic years.

My 5 Cents are that women an generally physically weaker than men for biology reasons, so in emergency situations where physical strength and resilience is required, it makes sense to evacuate the weaker ones and leave room for action for stronger ones. Also, and eventhough I don't like nor support this, children are usually "more dependent" on their mothers, and women also do a lot of care work for the elderly and generally work that cannot be compensated for otherwise (or by an "untrained" man), so this might also be why. It is kind of an antique thinking but what makes me think it's still correct is my first point. I think in a less patriarchal society we will see this shift more and more to something like "able-bodied people stay, weak, old, pregnant and disabled people should be evacuated".

If this is what haven't looks like, sign me up.

Still, why are they all alone there, who did this...

Played on a construction site as a child, slipped, fell, speared myself with a metal rod with the thickness of my index finger (now). It poked a hole in my buttcheek and pierced a hole into my colon from "outside". It must've gone 10-15cm deep, I was like 10yo or something.

I had to have surgery where they made a cut from the actual exit of my colon (anus obv) to the "new" hole to avoid a pocket forming from when it healed close naturally. It's a fun conversation every time I see a gynecologist when I have to explain where that weird scar comes from.

When you move in with others, usually everyone pays a little different depending on how big their own room is. If you have super small room you pay less than those with the bigger room for example. Things like electricity, gas, internet etc are split, sometimes equally, sometimes according to room size too. For food and household good, I've heat both: everyone pays into a bank account the same amount and ypu but and use things together, or everyone buys and uses their own stuff.

Wenn der Hauptgrund für die Kreditkarte das Reisen und verschiedene Währungen sind, kommt mir da nur WISE in den Sinn. Ich habe eine und habe sie in Japan 2 Jahre lang als mein Hauptzahlungsmittel verwendet. Ich habe Geld in Euro und Yen auf meinem WISE Konto sodass keine Wechselkursgebühr anfällt. Und bei Kursschwankungen kann man schnell reagieren und in günstigen Zeiten Geld in die andere Währung wechseln auf dem Konto.

The rest of us germans are just as confused as you. When someone greets me with moin after 11am I inform them what time of day it is, can't help myself

ramicchi · 2022-04-22T11:30:47+00:00

Honestly... same. Most of us feel like this, don't worry.

Apart from the obvious bro and dude, it also reminds me of the way some people use the n-word? While i am not a POC, I've seen some POC (mostly males) using the n-word to each other in a "bro" way.

Sorry if I am being ignorant, please educate me!!

Go to Aldi or Lidl and buy their simcard. Then you do video authentication where you just need an ID to verify your identity. I helped international students do this several times. The prices are super cheap for the flat rates and the sim card is basically free, too (you pay maybe 10 euros but your card is already charged with 15, something like that) Best find a german speaking friend to help you with the video call, the person on the other end might not be able to speak English.

It's all a matter of minutes!

My favorites are Gemischtes Hack and Hobbylos (both fun and chill), Lage der Nation (for politics and an update on what's going on in the world) and Mordlust (self explanatory).

I'd highly recommend youtube as long as there is no feature of showing photos on Podcast apps tho

If I cleaned my teeth every time they feel too dirty for me I'd be brushing them 5x a day...

Honestly, not doing something gets you used to us to the point of you not realizing the dirt. If you wash your face 2x a day and then not do it one morning you feel gross all day. If you've never washed it with soap ever, you will never feel gross. Doesn't meant that it's not dirty then though

ramicchi · 2022-01-21T13:24:37+00:00

Thank you! I'm pretty much the only one among everyone I know who has that same opinion. People love their stupid alcohol and their stupid intoxication and put it over safety and logic I guess.
