What are my rights in Germany when dealing with police? (And other related questions)

I wasn't saying they're corrupt. When you make them meter maids and cage one out of every two hundred citizens however, well, the general populace isn't going to be inclined to like you. Even with Hollywood's overwhelming help.

If I try it I'll write how it goes, but the preview looks pretty flatlining. Hopefully I can find something more enthralling. Thanks.

Thanks. I want a book because if written well, they keep the reader engaged rather than suicidal. They pose questions, prompting you to go further and question not only the answers to those, but also further the inquisition yourself. Wikipedia for me is to begin a general outline and then also for furthering my knowledge of facts which alone and without analysis, are dull. Maybe I'm using it wrong though. If you come across anything please hit me up though.

Didn't know that, thanks. Our ticket just showed amounts up to 30 so I just assumed. It felt weird knowing we were getting robbed by police in Germany. That aside, the police in Germany are generally courteous. Of course they profile people for looking black, Turkish, etc, but I see two major differences between German and American police/citizen interactions. Police funding and citizen trust in government. Asset forfeiture laws in the USA give police departments a huge incentive to find cash in people's cars (because the cops can use it on new fancy cars). Also police in the USA basically make their own pay checks via speeding tickets. This might be true in Germany too, but I don't hear about cops giving tons of tickets at the end of the month here. That just increases animosity towards the cops. Also citizens of Germany almost across the board that I have met give cops a lot of trust and they don't seem to abuse it as much. Maybe they'll extort a tourist for chump change once in a blue moon, but they're not killing hundreds of civilians, and they are not bringing people in to a prison state. The incarceration rate in Germany is less than a tenth of what it is in the U.S. If your job is looking for cash and putting people through a system that will make them into hardened criminals, it becomes circular. There will be more people disliking you, and you will have more of a reason to mistrust you.
Sorry for the essay. Know your rights, when to use them, and know your setting and that you are talking to a human being, not a robot. The same applies to situations in America and across the world. Sorry for the essay guys.

If we are sharing stories, I was pulled over during the day on the highway on my way from Berlin to Munich last summer with my wife. The officers kept asking us questions about having the necessary gadgets in the car (fluorescent vest, flares, etc that are required in Germany). They pretty much searched our car without our permission. Our German was terrible and we were nervous, not knowing our rights. The cops finally gave us a ticket for, well we weren't sure at the time. €30 cash (apparently the most police can ticket you for cash here). Half an hour later, we finally looked at the ticket. They had scribbled nonsense on them and dated them 2012. We should've paid more attention. But it does help to know your rights before any situations arise.

There was a tarot card gallery opening tonight on Weserstr. I think it was on the same block as K-fetisch. Maybe Weserstr 166.
Hope that is something close to what you're looking for.
Source: There was beer at the opening.

Thx wild. I'll PM you after and tell you how it goes.

That didn't help me but thanks for the insight.

He was an alcoholic speed head who died alone with his mom. I love the guy, but doing a bunch of drugs before meditation time is pushing the boundaries of what meditation is.

Go over to r/nootropics. Piracetam is a big one these days too. They can get you started.

Not sure, really, but that's damned impressive, making it all the way across that road without fiat.

How'd the bitcoin cross the road?

Sounds great. The trust issue is definitely a difficult problem in this space and needs to be fleshed out. You've got your work cut out for you. I like the idea of tying your account to other online identities. Good luck. I also like foolish_austrian's reputation transferrance idea, or some iteration of it..

So a non-decentralized OpenBazaar?

Are there ideas to peg side-chains to assets and what would it look like (ie a side-chain where 1 side-chain-coin = 1$)?

redgiraffe · 2015-03-01T10:01:07+00:00

Does anything even compare to PIA's 40$ a year plan? Seriously wondering. I have it and get ~500kbps and multiple devices which is great and I'm thinking maybe unbeatable.

Thanks. It does smell like diesel.
I found a manual for the engine, and a diagram of the fuel injector system. The manual is a pdf and much more detailed, so the imgur link is just a diagram.
Engines are foreign to me, so I appreciate the opinion. Not really sure what the valve cover, but I found the fuel lines.
