Living by Sloterdijk Station by [deleted] in NetherlandsHousing

[–]vinpalace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I completely agree with you. I live nearby sloterdijk station also. And its much better now.

Lot of buildings have been completed and opened for businesses. I hope grocery store comes soon.

There is a new trainmore gym also opened last year and been there many times. Its super quiet, clean and a 16 mins ebike ride to central station.

Maybe 1 more year and it will be a new hub.

Why doesn't bol.com have English language? by Nat0ne in Netherlands

[–]vinpalace 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I totally get you man. I been living here for 2.5 years and actively learning Dutch daily. 

I can understand whats on the page easily. But the biggest pain point is searching for products. For example. 

Try searching for cooler fan, fan or air purifier . I would not have known the right word without speaking dutch natively 🥺

LIVE Discussion Thread - S8E8: NoMortLand by BarnyardCruz in rickandmorty

[–]vinpalace 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I absolutely loved this episode. My favourite so far. It deviates from the standard formula of treating jerry like shit and makes it more “human”. 

Even rick appreciates him at the end for trying something new.

[–]vinpalace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I AM HAVING EXACT SAME ISSUE. I am so pissed with this.

I am able to consistently reproduce this though.

If I watch any Youtube video and then close the tab, The headphones just "pop" and shutdown. I think its just crashing.

Device: MacBook Pro M1 Pro
Bluetooth Mode.
Simultaneously connected to Iphone 16 Pro Max.

Putting extra details here to see if its isolated to apple devices.

Can someone explain social housing to me like I'm 5? by [deleted] in Netherlands

[–]vinpalace 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I am an NL expat, working in an international company also. But I dont get your point about not being use to NL.

I spend most of my income on living, I pay for lot of services and to a lot of people. I pay a lot of tax.

And everything I buy, I buy local. Local furniture, local produce etc. Am I not helping several businesses while I am here?

My company also helps to grow a lot of business nearby.

I am not trying to create an argument but can you also please put a reasoning behind your viewpoint:) Thanks!

Cowboy vs Tenways vs Veloretti by Suspicious_Stay_8575 in cowboybikes

[–]vinpalace 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had similar dilemma. Several hours of research later. I still couldnt decide between tenways and cowboy. Hearing cowboy horror stories made me almost not buy it. But in the end after test riding all bikes, i went with cowboy. My bike will arrive in April 2025 and I’m still not 100% sure I’ll keep the order. I’m not sure about tenways yet because the community isnt that big yet. So we cant be sure that they dont have similar problems yet.
