- Comment on 2 North American 4 you has been created 2 weeks ago:
Comment was not about what is, but what the rest of the world thinks it to be.
And that is not fancy West Coast craft beer or so, but Bud Light and Coors, I am afraid… - Comment on Hose Clamp Security Gate Chain... 2 weeks ago:
TBF, this doesn’t look like a security feature, but just a convenient way to span the chain taut.
- Comment on 2 North American 4 you has been created 2 weeks ago:
Dude’s coming from a Swedish Lemmy instance, so quite probably is a Swede.
Swedes don’t eat Hagelslag, that’s a Dutch thing, so I guess he is entitled to stay ;-) - Comment on 2 North American 4 you has been created 2 weeks ago:
Perhaps establishing some additional designated Communities will somewhat reduce the US-centric pressure from the more general communities.
So, not a bad thing, I would say. - Comment on 2 North American 4 you has been created 2 weeks ago:
Especially funny as Pecans are a very American thing, they don’t even grow in Europe.
So probably a significant part of the US population thinks because of this cake that Germans bake Pecan based stuff, while most Germans (me included) haven’t seen a Pecan nut in their whole life. :-) - Comment on 2 North American 4 you has been created 2 weeks ago:
I just remembered that we are have a very similar traditional dish in my home region (although only in a hefty variant with meat and/or vegetables):
de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sülze
And I also have to say, Schweinskopfsülze (pig head in aspic) is not as bad is looks, but certainly is an acquired taste… - Comment on 2 North American 4 you has been created 2 weeks ago:
l don’t dispute that (and also that they are probably great - had neither so far, as they are largely unknown here).
It’s just that nobody outside of the States thinks of these when they hear “US food”.
- Comment on 2 North American 4 you has been created 2 weeks ago:
That’s quite disputed.
One of the more likely theories states that the bun idea together with the ground meat steak originated in Hamburg, where it was a variant of the common “Rundstück warm”, which has been around since 200 years or so. - Comment on 2 North American 4 you has been created 2 weeks ago:
Dude, Hamburgers are literally named after the non-US city they originally came from…
But I have to admit that the refinement to its delicious present day form is an American achievement! - Comment on Why is GOG not as succesful as a Gaming Alternative? 2 weeks ago:
Looks like this for Games in my library, for other Games there is a checkbox for gifting later in the order process.
- Comment on Why is GOG not as succesful as a Gaming Alternative? 2 weeks ago:
No, has been around for ages for me. Germany.
- Comment on Why is GOG not as succesful as a Gaming Alternative? 2 weeks ago:
That’s not right.
I have totally gifted Games via GOG in the past.
E.g. my nephew got KSP from me last birthday.On the Game page it prominently shows a “buy as present” button.
Recipient doesn’t even need his own GOG account.Perhaps some regional block?
Where are you from? - Comment on 2 North American 4 you has been created 2 weeks ago:
Last panel gets it wrong, though.
Rest of the world totally thinks that there is such a thing as original American food:
Namely high-caloric, hyper-processed junk containing no nutrients but much too much fat, fructose sirup and carcinogenic substances.
That, and watery beer. - Comment on ICE is 30 minutes late again. I'm really pissed about that. 2 weeks ago:
This is solid advice, although in my case it has been a ticket without Zugbindung, as it has been for a work trip.
I got reimbursed one time last year, but had several trips where the delay annoyingly just stayed a few minutes below the magic 1hr mark. :-)
- Comment on Flock CEO calls Deflock a “terrorist organization” 3 weeks ago:
Feeling the need to state “they are closer to Antifa than anything else” might get you thinking…
- Comment on ICE is 30 minutes late again. I'm really pissed about that. 3 weeks ago:
Wow, that must be the most frustrating feeling ever.
“Your halt has been canceled today…” - Comment on ICE is 30 minutes late again. I'm really pissed about that. 3 weeks ago:
Return voyage working out much better, so l am happy again! :-)
- Comment on ICE is 30 minutes late again. I'm really pissed about that. 3 weeks ago:
Yes, seatbelts and comfortable seats.
Definitely an improvement to the Regionalexpress! - Comment on ICE is 30 minutes late again. I'm really pissed about that. 3 weeks ago:
Sadly a thing of the past…
- Comment on ICE is 30 minutes late again. I'm really pissed about that. 3 weeks ago:
Celebrating sounds very Italian… We Germans just share some sarcastic comments with our fellow travellers. :-)
- Comment on ICE is 30 minutes late again. I'm really pissed about that. 3 weeks ago:
What happened […]?
The long term effects of privatization and decades of car centric politics.
- Comment on ICE is 30 minutes late again. I'm really pissed about that. 3 weeks ago:
Or the Swiss.
- Comment on ICE is 30 minutes late again. I'm really pissed about that. 3 weeks ago:
You can imagine I gave up and did not go.
Not an option for me, mandatory appointment.
But something similar happened for as with your buses, but fortunately in a good way:
The preceding ICE was even more delayed, so I was able to catch that one instead. :-) - Comment on ICE is 30 minutes late again. I'm really pissed about that. 3 weeks ago:
There was a bus substitute on one of my routes some time ago.
Turned out it was faster than the train because it took the Autobahn.
First time in my life arriving 20 mins early at that destination… - Comment on ICE is 30 minutes late again. I'm really pissed about that. 3 weeks ago:
So we are still not worst?
I guess that’s… uplifting? - Comment on ICE is 30 minutes late again. I'm really pissed about that. 3 weeks ago:
It certainly should.
But I still value the work ethics of the ICE personal very much.
It’s not their fault that their employer isn’t able to coordinate procedures efficiently…
- Comment on ICE is 30 minutes late again. I'm really pissed about that. 3 weeks ago:
I am confident that there is still growth potential along the remaining route!
Let me tell you about me once trying to get from Mainz to Nürnberg some time…

Oh no, 8-bit is back again… 🫣

Wow, didn’t about it this way…
But for me: Hell, yeah! Added bonus!
