There’s an easy solution for that, you pay only fee of sum x for any surgery, the rest is paid by your insurance. They have the money, power and leverage to actually realise competition in the medical field

Critical thinking leads to critical overload which in turn leads to critical failure to compile

One time use though - for the vacuum cleaner and the house as well as the user

Actually now that I think about - excellent combo-deal

On your back obviously, do you even lift?

It is a crime to cross the Autobahn

It can already not be stealing since that requires the stolen object to be in fact a physical (and a moveable one at that) object. Stealing non-physical property does constitute a crime, but it’s not stealing.

Note: this is very specific to your country of origin and may not be true for your country or the applicable law in the case of international crime

I do not know what you’re reading or watching but the SZ for one has been reporting both sides quite frequently. I’ve just yesterday read an interview with a Palestinian-Israelian and a Jewish-Isrealian on the topic of how the West is still too hooked on the premise of two seperate states and that in their vision for peace a federal union with an unbiased and lawful constitution would be best.

I do not know if I am too unconcerned of that particular conflict right now, but it does bug me that it seems that there is barely any voices in between on the internet and most public voices. You either have unconditional support for Israel or you have people calling Isreal genocidal and comparing the state to Nazi-Germany.

How either of those sides wants to solve the issue is beyond me, if both sites keep their stance without even trying to debate on the problems (granted you have people in power on both sides of the conflict, willing to change, which I frankly don’t see at all) there will not be any solution for this. Because right now Israel will bomb its neighbours into oblivion while they are being played as puppets by Iran and other invested countries or you will have to dissolute Israel which the USA and Germany will not (and in the latter case cannot) allow. So much for advocating for peace on both sides.

Who cares about evidence of voting, you work enough days of the year, just take it for heavens sake. If I add up all days there are federal holidays in my country I get nearly 2 months worth and that is without paid or unpaid leave days you get from the employer

Wait till you hear about countries closing linguistic institutions for being spy agencies.

Yes, Willy Brandt, former chancellor of Germany for amending the post-war relationship with Central and Eastern Europe. He’s most famous for kneeling in front of the memorial for the Warsaw Ghetto while he was Chancellor.

Statistical probability that’s all

This is legitimately scary though. It haunts me in my dreams

As for PhDs, I don’t know the system in the USA, in Germany you can become a part-time teacher for your subject at university. Which means that your PhD is free and you get payed a little, normally enough to provide for your everyday and rent. Maybe there are doctorate programs geared towards US students.

Also maybe this info by the German Federal Ministry for Foreign Affairs can be helpful.

If you have any further questions on working in Germany, pls do consider asking on the English-speaking German subreddits for further information. They are quite a big community and should be able to offer more info and in particular more detailed info for your craft.

Anyhow I wish you good luck and maybe we can welcome you in Germany.

Digital slug race. Call a bookie, we need some betting

Not that it really matters to speak other languages, but it does help.

I know that a lot of German companies constantly need new personell and have a lot of engineering firms (I believe you study /have studied engineering)

Just to try to help here: have you considered applying for a job abroad? There’s a few countries that have labour shortages in a lot of areas, mostly European countries.

Alright I am done for it, gotta quickly think of something to hoard so that I can make some profit afterwards

Getting killed by dead bugs or being yeeted into orbit for no apparent reason are the best. Shooting the autocannon at objects too close for comfort and then ragdolling into mines is a facepalm moment - it happens way too often

I am not even that old (25), but years of being exposed to toxic and try-hard competitive CS (without any actual incentive to be competitive) made me the same toxic shit. That’s why I stopped playing altogether, apart from co-op stuff. HD2 is exactly the kind of game that helps. I can become annoyed as well, but I realise that it is mostly at myself now for making stupid decisions. And generally it’s just about having fun. The fact that I can laugh about being tked in the most ridiculous and unnecessary way is great

What nodiet said, sorry about that. Thought I had heard or read it before

Edit: I do find some uses. A few wine sellers use it, for example this Spanish one

Also dict .cc list it as a rare noun
