Way better than Temple of Doom for sure!

WWE 2024! 🎺🎺🎺🎺

If a single dollar doesn't move the needle for you, that's great! It reminded me of a book I read where the whole premise revolves around "how much does a single dollar more per day change your life?"

They built an interesting site: dollar street (https://www.gapminder.org/dollar-street).

If all the world lived on a single street, with low income left and high income right - where are you?

France is west of Germany, mein Freund.

There was the Snes mini a few years ago, that had a few select games on it. It was sold out everywhere instantly, to noone's surprise. No N64 mini ever made it to production, to everyone's surprise.

Don't forget Martyn Congressman!

Meh, that's just a box like the old Tipo, Panda, Regatta, Ducato and pretty much all other Fiat's from the 80s/90s

What's your problem with Spy Hard? It follows the same Leslie Nielsen formula as Wrongfully Accused.

Fenstersturz, actually.

"Grumbern" is the same in parts of Frankonia.

Weird. Never thought it to be real. In Warhammer 40k, only a populace of a specific planet has those purple eyes. Kinda neat to know that this might have been a super-specific random event (first human settlers of that planet having purple eyes).

They also sell "Dicke Eier" (fat eggs) around Easter. Same idea as the nuts.

(Electric) kettle would be the "right" word for Wasserkocher.

Brits and their weird non-compound-words.

Since they shut out Linux players last week. Taking away access to things someone bought, used and can't use anymore because of something the supplier did could be interpreted as theft.

Ok, thanks for the update. I'm neither a car guy nor a native speaker.

Older (pre 2000) diesel cars needed a few seconds, sometimes a minute to "warm-up" the starter. You had to turn the ignition half way before you actually start the car. That's the only "warming up" a car might need to function (normal circumstances).

Both, kinda. His point was (if O recall correctly) to promote a faster light rail track from Munich central station to the FJS Airport, also in Munich. The main benefit would be that you "start your flight on the train" because the transfer is seamless (in theory).

Ich bin grundsätzlich bei dir, dass man nicht 30% der Wählerstimmen invalidieren sollte. Allerdings sollte man dann (auf Parteiebene) keine pauschal-dogmatischen Aussagen treffen, wenn man sich dann eh nicht dran hält.

Danke für die Vorwarnung. Meine zweite Saison Thai-Chilis (nicht näher benannt, weil geschenkt bekommen) reift gerade vor sich hin und bisher hatte ich noch keine Kontaktlinsen, sondern auch nur brennende Augen.
