Not really. Shipping companies rarely ever have their own locations and are usually located in some form of kiosk. I don't think there is an equivalent to Stapels in Germany. Another commenter mentioned that DM and Rossmann (CVS, Rite

Generally no. Its about the length of walking that I do to get to work one way. But its a far enough distance to be an inconvenience. I rarely ever print something, but when I do its because there is no other option for me. That usually mea

It's a perfectly legal way to buy a property in Germany. Of course this gets abused to launder money because you can also buy a house worth a million in cash.

True, but print shops are harder and harder to find. I live in Berlin and the closest print shop is almost 2km away.

Still too high imho. 49 Euros is not completely covered under the unemployment allowence by the state. The max for that is 45 Euros. Additionally, making the price 29 Euros would mean double the expected ticket sales and ultimately more mon

Yeah, this would be about the most inefficient way to do it. You barely ever have to show your ticket. There are no gates that track where you are. You just walk into the train and go with it. Especially considering that tracking the genera

This is a massive change and a huge improvement for a lot of people. This isn't directly because of the price, although there is some reduction in price to the current system, but because it simplifies the ridiculous pricing zones. For

If you want a bread slicer and are able to find it in your location, I'd recommend Graef. They're an old German company and have produced bread slicers since the 1950s. Still super good quality and you can buy different blades to

The Kingsmith R1. As far as I know, it's a Xiaomi brand. It'd caution against getting a foldable treadmill however. Stability doesn't seem to be an issue but you do always notice the gap between the two parts. Most walking tr

Might make sense if you're exclusively drinking it from the fountain, but we use the filter only for tee. Our water quality is generally exceptional. Just for tee it's a bit too hard.

Detergent packs in the US seem to be mostly gel packs. In Germany, most tabs are simply hard pressed powder. Gel packs did fail in their cleaning function and the recommendation generally goes for either tabs or powder, where powder can sav

I don't think they do tear-downs but they do stress test them extensively. Their reports also include their testing methods in detail. For washing machine testing, for example, they independently bought 3 of each model and ran each thr

I think the main problem is probably finding any mainstream consumer TVs that are non-smart. I have looked and beyond some obscure brands or short of incredibly expensive commercial models there are barely any options.

I think the big differentiating factor will probably be that "jiggle programmers" don't really know what they're copying or why something works. I'd hope senior programmers do.

They ran 3 machines of each model 1840 times and always exactly recorded the statistics (is the 60C program really using 60C water, etc) and results to test for reliability.

For some products, I agree, but realistically its about as good as it gets unless you do thorough research on a given product and are actually able to find a somewhat unbiased review. Take washing machines for example. How do you know which
