Maybe that perception is skewed by America’s culture of having ridiculously large cars. European cars were always smaller, but nowadays it’s getting pretty hard to buy something other than an SUV here, too.

Considering my country famously refused to take part in the Iraq war and declared me unfit for service during draft (which was compulsory), that would be quite strange.

My first thought is that it sounds like a portmanteau of rhubarb and fubar. Which is bad.

That depends on your definition of “united”, doesn’t it? The United States of Mexico or America are definitely “united” into one country, i.e. there aren’t really any serious secessionist movements, nearly all citizens speak the country’s main language etc. The USA are politically divided, but the divide doesn’t follow state borders that closely and many states are still swing states or flipped in the last 1-3 decades.

Wie kommt man eigentlich auf “Äste”? Ich habe noch nicht herausbekommen, wie man in “feddit.de” ein Wort findet, dass sich mit “Ast” bzw. “Äste” übersetzen lässt.

Knowledge of the two official languages is largely determined by geography. Nearly 95% of Quebecers can speak French, but only 40.6% speak English. In the rest of the country, 97.6% of the population is capable of speaking English, but only 7.5% can speak French.[89]

Jesus fuck, those numbers are abysmal.

Implying Greece doesn’t also do this.

Knights were typically rich assholes themselves!

Das ist leider eher das Symptom als der Grund - Journalismus rechnet sich heutzutage kaum, deswegen werden überall Redaktionen zusammengestrichen und statt gut recherchierten Inhalten gibt es dann halt wortwörtlich billigen Clickbait und Boulevard-Mist.

Bedenke, dass dort “Land in Europa” steht, nicht “Land in der EU”. Da Griechenland aber höchstwahrscheinlich nicht das zweitärmste Land in Europa ist, ist der Satz wahrscheinlich eh Quatsch.

Noch bevor das Gesetz über die Sechs-Tage-Woche in Kraft tritt, sind die Griechen die “Helden der Arbeit” in Europa. Mit durchschnittlich 41 Stunden pro Woche arbeiten sie länger als alle anderen EU-Bürger, wie aus Zahlen von Eurostat hervorgeht -und werden dafür ziemlich schlecht bezahlt.

Μit einem Mindestlohn von 830 Euro liegt Griechenland auf Platz 15 der Liste der EU-Länder. Gemessen an der Kaufkraft ist Griechenland sogar das vorletzte Land in Europa.

Heilige Scheiße! Wollen die einen Wettbewerb zur höchsten Auswanderungsquote gewinnen?

Nothing. No money for investments then or now, which is also why I never kept up enough with stocks, crypto etc. to be able to cheat the market as a one-time time traveller. Plus I have several medical issues (then and now) that remain unsolved mysteries.

Only thing I can think of is using a bigger boot partition when I installed reinstalled Ubuntu from scratch about 5 years ago.

What am I looking at here? I’m not that well-versed in current-day warfare.

TBH my college time went pretty badly. Being able to get good grades throughout highschool with minimal effort really came back to bite me in college.

I found a PDF of that email chain, first entry on page 18: https://s3.documentcloud.org/documents/6405929/09132019142056-0001.pdf (the ordering of emails is basically backwards, i.e. oldest entries at the end).

A lot of the time, the fundamental issue is the lack of information provided by the poster. I’ve seen so many threads where the provided information just isn’t enough, and they don’t react to any of the questions at all.
