13th salary?.. It’s actually Austrian thing being taxed less in Austria. Never had this in my dozen jobs in Germany. Xmas bonus yes. Health insurance is expensive and low quality. One must pay for all modern treatments despite being insured

I think it’s already automated when the line planing was good. However some places like Munich have terrible delays and all the strange things not allowing getting on time by subway.

I do the opposite and buy directly from AliExpress if need some low quality low cost stuff. Good examples: cheap SATA to USB enclosures and self adhesive “leather” for keyboard repair. Or cheap LED lamps for occasional use or generic bicycl

Eastern Europe companies operate for months with the drivers living in the trucks. It’s brutal how money is made there. German highways are full of these trucks. 2 guys in a truck do 1000 miles every day except Sundays when the trucks can’t

I see often dedicated bus lanes around. And sometimes dedicated traffic lights for them. It’s difficult job, but that automatically brings the need for automation. I don’t know much people who want this low pay extremely high stress job. So

Why I can’t see autonomous city bus companies. The speed is slow, route is rather short and predefined. April tags or UWB radio location beacons can be placed in cost efficient manner. Every city is screaming loud, that they can’t find enou

Nice that you call 800€/month cheap. You are probably seriously rich.

There is nothing free in Germany. I see every month ~800€ leaving my account. It’s on par to Swiss one and as I heard not far from the one in USA. And it’s not good!!! This free health care pays only for basic and/or old treatments.

I just like the red color being tired of black or silver consumer electronics. Never did an extensive research what Product Red means. Thanks for posting.

35 and with 45 one is too old to be hired in tech anymore. Eventually as a consultant through some middleman company for a year or so.

Lots of tasteless stuff. Looks like food, but no smell, nor taste. Probably better than nothing at all, but not comparable to a real deal bought locally from farmers in neighbor countries.

What Europe did is plain stupid. Germany cut the gas supply and is trying to catch up. Gas and electricity prices are skyrocketing. Like from 300€ a month to 1000€ a month for an older house. It would be clever to buy bad Russian gas for o

It is a bit conspiratorial. Since everything that’s is being made is shipped immediately and nobody has a warehouse to store bad Black Friday electronics I would take such statements with a grain of salt.

There were 255 Kia EV6 and 1100 Hyundai IONIQ 5 registered in Germany last month. Kia isn’t priority for this organization for sure.

These cars from Hyundai/Kia/Genesis are super cool, but there’s a catch. One must wait years to get them. Kia EV6 in average 15 months in Germany. This corporation wasn’t ready for success. On the long run this will heavily damage

That’s why I am slowly training myself to leave the cellphone in the shelf at the house’s exit. Ironically loosing the “mobile” feature of the mobile phone. I see other people sticking paper pieces on both cameras already. I also see people

I don’t think, that politics is a topic for HN. But orcs is too nice word for the beasts who put the corpses of men in the city center and force the little crying kids to identify their dead parents. And then shoot whole families as a punis

I know a guy who does this with Apple products. Half monthly salary for a phone for a year sounds extreme to me. Plus all the gimmicks that come with the phone - pad, phones and watch.

Family members as commercial buyers not only read imprints, but also check the seller and his company in various scoring portals. In commercial domain nice consumer protection does not exist anymore.

by lnsru 4y ago
My rude opinion: imprint is nonsense. It does not protect you from fake shops at all. It’s no brainer to copy one from another shop. As a legit seller you can be sued by shady layers for errors in imprint. Who is looking in public registers

Cool, but is there a way to store electricity generated by renewables? I have no interest in candle light dinner on dark winter day without much wind.
