One thing that has always amused me as a German is that for every banking/investing account I have ever opened they always included one question: Do you have an USA citizenship? I assume with online banking this has become less of an i

Just to add to this. OnlyFans also uses Stripe as their payment processor.

None of that has anything to do with me liking it. There are enough things that are mainstream that you probably don't like either.

While I'm not the biggest fan of crypto overall this is definitely one instance where you could actually use it in a way that makes sense by offering people to pay with it instead. Only issue is converting it afterwards into fiat curre

Licensing fonts is just such a headache that I would never want to deal with it. They are usually based on metrics that are pretty cumbersome to track. If you want a custom font where no OFL licensed alternative would work I'd rather h

I use a pretty similar setup. At the beginning of my day when I get to my desk at work I open a new .txt and enter all the tasks I'm currently working on (copied from the last day). I then mark them as completed or leave notes as neede

I don't want to get too political, but calling the CDU/CSU liberal is pretty misleading in this context considering that they are part of the EVP (conservative) on a European level and not Renew Europe (liberal).

Two issues I see here would be that a) the demand and production of how water and compute power might not align and b) the amount of water heated this way would probably not be nearly enough for most people. What is probably more feasible i

I wouldn't call about 10% of their net revenue nothing, but also not a core part of their business. I think it goes more towards promoting the brand and image. https://www.ferrari.com/en-EN/corporate/articles&

Not a lawyer, but that seems to be from the 60s and a quick Google search showed some court decisions that extraditions to the UK are not possible as staying silent can harm your defense, which contradicts German basic law where it states:

De-humidifying the books however could also damage them so I believe their solution is probably the best for this purpose.

That is correct, but putting a hurdle like this into place will stop the majority of people that don't know what they are doing and are just going to upload your sensible data to all sorts of places.

Agreed, the bridge is definitely not fit for that purpose. It's still not dangerous though unless you take spiking heart rates caused by bad traffic into account. ;)

In the US[1] and UK[2] you can find bridges with actual 90-degree angles that look a lot more dangerous than the Indian one. [1] https://maps.app.goo.gl/3CBqVHbVEtonHjcr9 [2] https://maps.app.goo.gl/8cVB44VDJR

This doesn't look unsafe though, just inconvenient. Both in the US[1] and UK[2] you can find bridges with actual 90-degree angles. The one in India[3] is more like 75 degrees. [1] https://maps.app.goo.gl/3CBqVHbVEtonHjcr
