Ok, that's a field I'm not familiar with. I guess this is more of a government field of work and they are more conservative in their hiring process. I found the following jobs and the amount is pretty limited (and in Eastern Germa

Amazing. Would you mind disclosing where in Germany you are and what here degree is in?

by mgraupner 3y ago
As a German, my personal experience does not correspond with this. I know a lot of companies here where people from India or Eastern European countries work and their knowledge of the German language varies widely. But as long as you speak

So she's got a degree in engineering from here in Germany, knows the language pretty well, but can't land a job here? I don't know where you are in Germany, but that sounds pretty much unbelievable. I live in Bavaria in a mid

Over Christmas I rented an EV here in Germany, wanted to try the Renault Megane E-Tech. Instead I got an Ora Funky Cat, so Chinese car. Electrical driving was quite nice (as most EV), but there were so many other annoying things: - First an

Welcome to Germanys Landgerichte (State Courts). Sony probably knew, that this judge would rule in their favour (former rulings, of old age, ...). Now the defendant has to appeal the ruling, which costs a lot of money and time.

Because Sony sued at this court (you can't just start at the High Court). If they decide to appeal, it moves higher up the hierarchy.

Setting the pi-hole as your DNS server in your router would not work? TV should then use this DNS server after getting an IP-address via DHCP.

I like their solution, much better than just touch and still easy to clean. Very fast to go from 0 to max and back. No problem in activating them, you're 'probably holding it wrong'. ;) I don't know how one can loose&#x2

May I ask if you're a native German or English speaker? There is an example in another thread here which has the following example: We spontaneously decided to get married. I would translate that into: Wir haben uns spontan (dazu) ents

I also think that this setup will not be worth it ecologically or economically.

It does not really matter, they are basically all the same. Only thing to watch out is that they should be build with half-cell technology and monocrystalline (which almost all of them are, technology does not differ that much in solar pane

1. Check your Vitamin D levels, if deficient use liquid drops to supplement. Lot of people suffer from this in winter, especially in the northern hemisphere. 2. Do you suffer from a stiff neck? If 1 does not help to release muscle tension,

Ever thought about changing continents? There are large Japanese communities here in Germany (and other places in Europe), perhaps you would get a more positive outlook on life there.

The point was that the combined value of all these features are rarely matched in any other laptop in this price range. Superior speakers were just one of the things.

by mgraupner 4y ago
Why would you compare the price of an ordinary laptop with that of an extraordinary one? People buy Mercedes and not Lada Niva for a reason my friend, even though both of them can drive. ;)

For 3600€ you could get the M2 Pro 16" with 32 GB RAM and 1 TB SSD which is a much faster machine than the on you bought 4 years ago, even if the specs might not have changed that much. Could not argue about the price of a Ryzen, can&#

It would be ok if the upgrades would not be so freakishly expensive. RAM is on an all-time low, still Apple wants 460€ !!! for 16 GB RAM more here in Europe.

by mgraupner 4y ago
Which starts at lower prices. But you're right, I forgot about this model because I do not consider it a Pro model anymore.

Apple: 500 nits display, whole working day battery, fans almost never on, much higher resale value. Might be worth it for some people.

The Pro starts with 16 GB of RAM.

I read that disabling the Windows write cache for the drive helps with this problem. Don't ask me why though.

I drive the current BMW 3 series with a 150 PS Diesel engine and in summer I manage to get between 47 and 51 mpg at about 130 km/h (about 80 mph) on the highway. And I'm not even trying too hard to save gas. VWs current Diesel eng
