Similar with Bavarian. I know a few people who are incapable of speaking high German. The ISO and UNESCO even classify Bavarian as its own language (although that is debatable).

High German and Bavarian are actually more different than for example Danish and Norwegian and Czech and Slovak.

And that’s probably because they exported a lot of their German ethic and if you’d take away German cashiers‘ chairs, you’d be in trouble more quickly than you can spell aldi

Where I live (Germany), most bigger Supermarket chains offer in house brand sodastream compatible gas cylinders. There usually even cheaper. I also have an ALDI in house sodastream dupe called soda star. Never saw a reason to buy sodastream, even before I knew about their political/moral questionability, when there are cheaper alternatives that literally do the exact same thing.

They were invented to plug bullet wounds in wartime after all, until nurses noticed they had other practical uses as well.

Don’t quote me on that though, I don’t remember where I read that.

Even if it’s true, legalization would reduce that immensely because you don’t have to buy weed from a dealer who can give you a sweet deal on some harder drugs but grow it at home or get it from a store instead, where you won’t be upsold illegal substances.

The recirculation of the coffee is not strictly necessary. Sure, it wouldn’t be a classic American percolator but there are other coffee makers that work by very similar principles but without burning your coffee (like drip brew filter coffee machines or my favorite, moka pots). Percolated in general just means "filtered" or "strained".

That’s an inherent flaw of the classic US percolators, where the coffee drips back down into the boiling water. It’s near impossible to not burn st least some of the coffee. Even basic filter coffee is usually better.

Nah, it’s not just murica. Here in Germany for example, if you order a cup of coffee you usually get filter coffee. If you want espresso, you have to order espresso.

The french way. If you park in france, don’t engage your hand brake.

If artist payout is your primary concern, take a look at qobuz. They pay even more than napster and tidal.

Ich bin ein grundoptimistischer Mensch und die amerikanische Lösung für Geschäftsführer von Versicherungen scheint auch auf Staatsmänner übertragbar zu sein. Nicht, dass ich irgendjemandem den Tod wünsche, aber es wäre weder der erste Präsident, noch die ersten Schüsse auf den kommenden Präsidenten.
