- Comment on Lots of times the restaurants won't even have milk 7 months ago:
Cocktails without alcohol cost way too much for what they are. That would be like paying 15 bucks for a burger without meat.
Restaurants sometimes also have like dozens of types of beer, wine, etc. but the best non-alcoholic they can do is a water or a coca cola softdrink?

Rewe also sells products by weight (mainly unpackaged fruits and vegetables).

…do you not understand how basic math works?
I do, actually. My whole point was that you need basic maths in your everyday life even though you have a calculator on your phone. You jumped right into the 6th comment in this thread without reading what this is about, didn’t you?

You don’t know how much you need to pay for it if you only know the price of 1kg but you buy half a kilo.
- Comment on Let π = 5 8 months ago:
Reminds me of Bo Burnham’s song New Math
- Comment on Let π = 5 8 months ago:
Buy if you want to buy only half a kg, you don’t know how much it costs because it only lists the price for a full kg. Do you start pulling out your Excel for that?

You literally dont have to pay for that. You can choose to not do that. It would be pretty dumb of you to do that but it’s possible.
- Comment on Why do Americans measure everything in cups? 8 months ago:
I was actually not aware of that… Makes more sense now.
- Comment on Why do Americans measure everything in cups? 8 months ago:
Except I have cups in my kitchen that are double the size of other cups and I dont know which ones to use.
- Comment on Germans: what genocide? 8 months ago:
Germany provided Israel with anti-tank weapons and also training muniton. That’s it (according to official statements). Doesn’t sound like something you could commit a genocide with to me…
- Comment on Germans: what genocide? 8 months ago:
What exactly are people referring to when the label this a genocide? Like, what line was crossed where this changed from defending against terrorists to commiting a genocide, in your opinion? (I’m genuienly curious, couldnt really find anything specific on this)
- Comment on Germans: what genocide? 8 months ago:
Your honour, our client can’t have intent because they’re demonstrably criminally insane, we know because we caused that insanity". Not in that many words, but to that effect.
That’s completely made up, either by you or by another person. What they actually say is that Israel’s intent is to defend against the armed attacks of the Hamas, not to commit a genocide.
More like: “Your honor, our client is just trying to defend themselves, they are not doing this to commit a genocide”
- Comment on Germans: what genocide? 8 months ago:
The thing about insanity is made up by the person eho posted that comment. What they actually say is that Israel’s intent is to defend themselves against the armed attacks by the Hamas, so self-defense, and not to commit a genocide.
- Comment on This grocery store charges a hefty handling fee and asks for a tip when using online ordering. 8 months ago:
Depends on your country. Some just have lower tax rates depending on the item.

Why should only the minorities that excel deserve a good life?
The guy just said “If you excel at something, you will be happy and less stressed” and you are seriously asking why only people that are happy deserve to be so? They didnt even claim that anything SHOULD be any particular way, they just said that the goal of being happy in the end is an aim worth persuing.
Let people be mediocre and instead we need to make life better for everyone.
You cant just magically make people healthier or less stressed or happier. If the other person had said “Health is a good reason why you should start working out” would you also respond with:
Why should only the minorities that
excel[work out] deserve a good life??

looking at screens too long
No it doesnt. You might as well say “looking at a tree too long”.

No, the turn signals (“Blinker”) here in Germany have to be yellow.

I’d rather drive 130 km/h than 80 mph…
- Comment on Not buying a shaver from Philips again.. 8 months ago:
Yeah because they are standardized. However, these are too big to fit in that razor and the only reason these cables are interchangable is because they follow that standard.

- Comment on gottem 8 months ago:
Others in this thread have pointed out that running cold water over your arms helps. So maybe while you wet your blade, your arms get wet too…?
- Comment on Not buying a shaver from Philips again.. 8 months ago:
Plugging in a random cable from some random manufacturer is not a thing that most people would consider doing. (Furthermore, I doubt that any 220V cable would fit, these connectors on the picture are smaller than they look).
- Comment on Not buying a shaver from Philips again.. 8 months ago:
Nice of then to make sure you cant accidentally blow up your new razor because you assuned the old cable would work if it fir.
- Comment on degree in bamf 8 months ago:
Nonody is “known” for that behaviour. You really just seem to ascribe personality traits to people based on their skin color. I thought we were long past that.

If the post said “a Black trans women interrupted me”, would that be also fine, in your eyes?

- Comment on "I wish you well in your future endeavors" 8 months ago:
They just use the infinitive, like for example in “I swear she be doing that” (instead of “I swear she is doing that”). Thats just a dialect some people have.
- Comment on Amsterdam testing system that can remotely slow e-bikes down 9 months ago:
What is it for though? It’s overridable, so essentially it just makes it easier to ride without paying too much attention. Also, the speedometer legally had to be slightly lower than the actual speed, sp you’re actually driivng slower than the speed limit.
