Half of Germany's car owners are trying to get their cars washed today.
Wondering how many Europeans know where the origin of the "black friday" promotions come from? Weirdly I haven't seen a single "black friday" here in Germany wishing us a happy Thanksgiving ... I guess any excuse for sending out more spam to promote doubtfully lucrative discounts is worth it?
Why are music streaming rights still bound to geographical, economical and politicial boundries? I cannot listen to a song on Deezer because it is not licensed to be streamed in Germany, yet it is in Belgium. Music is for all the people. How is this not hurting the artists instead of helping them?
If you live in Germany or Austria and want to get started with your own website, as part of the #indieweb, it is good to know about the "impressumspflicht". Info in English: https://
The European Digital Identity project has just saved me by giving me access to my Belgian financial data as a Belgian living in Germany.

How many people have suffered in Germany because personal data could not be shared between organizations and institutions in the last ten years?
Wanted to give Google Family Link a try but somehow the Google code does not allow my account where everything is set to Germany to actually use it even-though Germany should be allowed to use this Google Feature. This is one of the reasons why I really dislike Google. They have crazy geo-location restrictions. It might be that somewhere deep down Google saw that my original account was created in Belgium; but there is no way of knowing exactly why this error happens, nor what somebody can do about it. This makes me feel like just deleting all of it.
And good luck trying to get somebody from their "customer support" to help ...
Predicting that alternative ways of generating electricity, for example by using a fixed exercise bike connected to a battery, will get more popular in Europe and Germany this winter.
Covid is NOT over in Germany. Our kita / kindergarten is staying closed tomorrow because of an outbreak. Wear masks when going to public places, please!!
Eurovision 2022 Germany zero points from the country jurys... feels off. Was it that bad? UK wins. Ha.
Sent our yearly monetary support to DKMS - an international nonprofit bone marrow donor center based in Tübingen, Germany, with entities in the US, UK, Chile, Poland, and India. - https://
Replaced the failing battery and bottom module, with the USB connector, in my Fairphone 3 and now all is working again. Feels good to be able to "fix" a phone yourself. The price of the replacement parts is not cheap, but I do believe it is worth it. I sent the old parts to the iFixit location in Germany for proper recycling.
Had a great time at the Labyrinth at the "Three Countries Point" in Vaals. It's where The Netherlands, Belgium and Germany share their borders.
But, I got soaked and I think my phone is no longer charging. So since the battery was losing capacity too, I ordered a replacement bottom module part and a replacement battery from Fairphone.
It's probably a bit of both. I do know that not all vodka is Russian. I do think that Germany should abolish public street advertisement for strong alcohol and cigarettes.
Anyone who is even thinking about hamster-buying flour in Germany would be better doing it to send it to Ukraine or elsewhere where people are actually starving right now, alright?
All-out economic warfare is the best way to stop Putin | Orysia Lutsevych | The Guardian
"Germany and Italy, must start preparing now for life without Russian gas and threaten a full embargo."
Perhaps closing the nuclear power plants in Germany was not really the best idea now in hindsight?
WDR 4 Frequenzen - Frequenzen - Über uns - WDR 4 - Radio - WDR
Radio in Germany is notoriously bad, WDR 4, is probably the only public radio station I can listen to. Funny how its official target audience is over 50...
