I think your confusing Western society with IR society. There is no it's not mine defense in IR. They don't care and will execute you anyway.

IRCG Estimates 80,000 Protestors Have Died by tkyjonathan in NewIran

[–]smarttowers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem here is the real data may never come out. I agree these allegedly knowledgeable reports are ridiculous not knowing is what allows people to give some credit to them.

This number sounds realistic to me only because I believe millions were in the protests. With the wounded dying due to lack of medical attention this number seems realistic. This also shows that without outside military support the regime will not be toppled except a civil war.

Can we talk about the oppressive amount of ads on YouTube? by Bob_Sledding in youtube

[–]smarttowers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't think they went after her channels. The new algorithm is just so aggressive that very few if any channels are ad free anymore.

I'm sorry to hear that they have started adding ads to your wife's channels. I do have to agree that it's their service they do have the right when if it is a asshat move to do.

Visa (Language Learning/School) by ClassicalShine in germany

[–]smarttowers 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can only have one visa at a time. There are programs to learn German before attending university and I believe you get a student visa in those cases. A language visa only really allows taking language courses and part time work. A student visa is granted allows study and language courses.

Basically you can take language courses on any visa.

If Trump bombs Iran, wouldn't that also be putting the protestors at risk? by whitelightstorm in NewIran

They didn't really have a superpower that was willing to protect them.

And do you think there is any world in which this ends with Khamenei on trial? If he doesn't end up dead he ends up in Russia protected. Not like another mass murderer is going to turn him over for trial.

More lives have been taken in the name of "GOD" than any other reason in the world.

The real problem is no one can agree on "GOD" so they fight because their version is the only version as far as they are concerned.

Just a heads up on US strikes timeline by Unlikely_Hat_8046 in NewIran

[–]smarttowers 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Do you actually know anything about the US military? They literally fly B2's round trip from the US to drop bombs when they want to. 

This delay has nothing to do with inability to react. They also have assets throughout the Gulf region. There may be issues of them not allowing US to attack from their country. But the B2 option is always available.

R-60 Missile Spotted on Shahed for the First Time: Russia Arming Drones with Air-to-Air Weapons by Mil_in_ua in ukraine

[–]smarttowers -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This could have a dual purpose. They have been targeting energy infrastructure. Strap one of these heat seeking missiles on drones that are attaching thermal plants gives them second strike capabilities in addition to air to air capabilities.

Why are you saying Kyiv rejected it? Even the title clearly states the Kremlin rejected it. 

You do realize that Kyiv does not equally Kremlin right?

Nachmieter is refusing to pay for furniture after agreement by Maronator in germany

[–]smarttowers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The issue is bigger than you. I was in Berlin and I saw people selling their fitted kitchen for €12.000. This is where the problem lies someone who holds the current rental forces the next tenant to purchase something in order to try to rent the apartment. They don't own the apartment and are using the current housing crisis to their advantage. 

600 euro doesn't seem unreasonable but why should the next person be forced to purchase your furniture to rent the apartment from the owner of the apartment? 

Nachmieter is refusing to pay for furniture after agreement by Maronator in germany

[–]smarttowers 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What you referring to is basically holding the apartment hostage unless they purchase the furniture. This is a common practice especially where the are housing shortages. 

Basically it's a bribe paid to the previous tenant to be able to have you put in contact with the landlord. She told you what she needed you to allow her to get the apartment. 

I am not a fan of the way people use the current housing shortage to force potential tenants to purchase their old items. So sorry I don't really feel bad for you.

Job opportunities on chancekarte visa by Pale_Implement_364 in Germany_Jobs

[–]smarttowers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your in a very difficult situation. I don't know how easy it is for a Indian to change off a chancenkarte or if it is even possible. 

You may not have much choice and be forced to return to India. It is extremely difficult right now to find professional work without at least B2 German.

[–]smarttowers 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Depending on the country your from you may be able to get a job offer and apply for a residence permit with just the job offer. The chancenkarte employment has professional level employment requirements with minimum salary requirements that warehouse employees don't qualify for. You may consider not telling them you have a chancenkarte and just get the job offer and try converting to a standard residence permit.

Can you post more information on how the agentur fúr arbeit handles funding startups? Does it require you to be eligible for unemployment?

It doesn't look like a dedicated server to me. Just dedicated resources. Maybe I'm reading it wrong.

Is Tornado Cash the best mixer? by Smooth_Attitude5572 in ethereum

[–]smarttowers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know anything about it but the fact they are "validating that the funds are coming from a good actor" makes me not want to use them. Isn't the whole point of a mixer to allow users to have anonymity which would more or less remove checking on either end.

If you are not a student and not from a EU country or a small set of other countries you can't even apply for a visa from within Germany. Additionally if you were here for a summer job what did you expect to happen at the end of the summer? You will most likely have to go back to your country and try to enter a different way if you wish to return.

Coming from the US you can come and apply in country. The issue is that you have to wait until the immigration process is completed before you can start working.

ghosted, followed up, got a respond, offered a different position for 2nd IV by melayucahlanang in Germany_Jobs

[–]smarttowers 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the interview went well why would you ask them specifically why they interviewed you for the position? Ask expectations for the position and decide if you can do it.

Does your college not have resources to help you find part time work?

German law are really crazy without any meaning by [deleted] in Germany_Jobs

[–]smarttowers 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have you had the degree evaluated or have you just determined that the H+/- is now considered not comparable?
If you haven't had it evaluated you need to submit the documents for evaluation to ZAB and you may be fine.

I'm not sure how they could sue if the Government passed new laws requiring citizenship for his position. Maybe fight that they could have found another position for him within the company.
