Actually it was left woman’s ex husband and her bodyguard who paid someone else to hurt right woman’s knee so she can’t compete in figure skating anymore.The paid person used a police baton at least according to Wikipedia but wasn’t able to hurt her bad enough to stop her from participating in future events.

Why wouldn’t it make sense to cross these areas by train? You don’t need a stop in the desert but before and after sounds sensible to me.
- Comment on Anon likes trains 4 days ago:
I haven’t crossed border by train since they started to do this again. But when I’m teaching within Germany the trains that come from out of country are usually delayed.
Afaik the train is sometimes stopped to check the papers of all passengers. I guess these are the cases with the heavy delay. But they also do controls in moving trains which makes it more tolerable but still…

Here are numbers from 2022 but you still need to do the math
- Comment on Anon likes trains 4 days ago:
That statement is a bit too broad for me. You can not only use highspeed rail within Germany but also to reach the countries around it. E.g. Belgium, Netherlands, Austria, (ICE trains) or use the TGV to reach Paris in a reasonable time.
But with the (illegal) border controls currently it’s insufferable. Will travel through France by train in September and I fear that the border controls will totally derail (haha) our time and travel plans.
We decided to use the train because the air connections took us longer since we didn’t want to vacate in a city with an airport and don’t live in one either.

Your question makes it sound like Epic is a smell new player at the market and they are trying their best and both is not true.
Epic is actively working on enshittification, Steam, at least for now, isn’t. For me it’s easy as that.

I also had to think of PMDS which is like PMS but with very strong psychological symptoms. My sister got this when her Endometriosis became worse. Doing a thorough check with a doctor would be best.

For Germans it works both ways “Kacke” is a less offensive word for “shit” (or “Scheiße” in German).

- Comment on Question about (what I think are) gay selfies 3 months ago:
I know it’s a bit difficult, coming from your bubble and all but most things people do are not related to their sexuality but personality. If you saw a hetero guy or gal post selfies like that you would also not think of them being hetero as the reason why they do this but because they like this pose / think they look cute like that.
This is an unconscious bias. It takes some time to rewire your brain. But I see you are willing to and that’s already the best start.

A classic that always nearly kills my boyfriend with laughter. He took weeks to get over it the first time I showed him. Guess who just received a link and sits in his office today :]

It’s not about “getting someone”. The concerts are in clubs that have a zero tolerance. If there’s a Nazi band on the stage shit will hit the fan. This may range from other bands refusing to play in the same stage to people attacking each other.
You get usually two kind of responses: People are pretty clear in their response: “Of course not” or “Fuck Nazis” are the usual replies here.
Then there are others who get offended or try to discuss what Nazi means. That’s a “yes” in disguise and enough to not book them.
- Comment on It's a good group! 4 months ago:
Meh depends on the setting. My partner and I are organizing smaller concerts from time to time. If we are about to book an unknown band sooner or later you have to ask the Nazi question.
The setting here feels similar.

When Started was released there was no multiplayer either. Maybe you can get in touch with them and find out what they think about adding mp in a later version.

In general yes. But this article is using the fact that those poor artists need to do dirty sex work to earn money to make it’s point. And this is stupid. Where is the “musicians have to work minimum wage jobs in fast food joints” outcry?

At least in Germany it is available on Netflix.
But be warned: the trailer attracted a legion of Ninjas who immediately started cutting onions in my living room.
