Das ist dann ein Problem für die Vermieter. Sollen die sich doch was einfallen lassen. Es kann ja nicht sein, dass die Allgemeinheit die Konsequenzen ihres Geschäftsmodells ausbaden muss und Lime und Co. sich einfach aus der Affäre ziehen und den Gewinn einstreichen.
In manchen Städten gibt es ja auch so Docks für Leihräder. Sollen die doch sowas bauen.
Einfach direkt die Vermieter zur Kasse bitten. Dann können die sich damit rumschlagen wie sie das Geld von den Kunden zurückholen 🤷♂️
Do a barrel roll
I don't get it. What am I looking at?
I suggest building a parallel justice system for Peter Thiel. It will be powered by guillotines.
I honestly don't think this will lead to a massive black market like some people seem to think. I don't see big profit margins that would make cigarettes an attractive thing to sell illegally. You can only make them so expensive if you can just find someone older to buy them for you for the normal price.
Besides, smoking is pretty shit really. There aren't going to be loads of people willing to go through the hassle of getting cigarettes illegally when all they do is stink and give you cancer. Especially when the people who can't buy them will mostly be people who haven't had a chance to get addicted yet.
I think this will work and be a net positive in the long run.
until it's revealed a horse is transphobic.
No need to worry there, I think I speak for all of us when I say: Trans rights are human rights! 🏳️⚧️
As a middle aged man in lycra who enjoys riding road bikes fast for sport and is comfortable riding in traffic: That Forester guy sounds like a dick. One of the things that makes bikes so cool is that they come in all kinds of different shapes and sizes, optimised for different use cases. Road bikes are cool, but so are mountain bikes, cargo bikes, fixed gear bikes, dutch style upright bikes, etc. And even if countless near death experiences while cycling around cars have made me feel comfortable (or complacent?) riding in traffic, I still appreciate good cycling infrastructure. People deserve to be safe and every trip taken by bike instead of by car is a win.
I paid for movers my last two moves. It was expensive, but if you can afford it, it's totally worth it in my opinion. Instead of the move taking a whole weekend it was done in half a day both times.
And it's true: nobody wants to help with that shit. My friends offered, but the relief on their faces when I told them there was no need, was clearly visible.
So platforms (rightfully) remove this song, but are happy to let him have an account and make money off his other songs? If they actually cared, he would have been banned a long time ago…
As others have said, Germany is not as bad as the US (at least as far as I can tell looking at the US from the outside), but it's still fucking terrible and will likely get worse under future governments, which are all but guaranteed to be right-wing, quite possibly including the outright fascists of the AfD.
Public transport is useless, especially the train network, which is horribly outdated technically and has been gutted by quasi-privatisation. Trains are frequently late or cancelled (which counts as on time for German Rail's statistics). If you don't live in a city you basically have to own a car because of this, especially in smaller towns where there might only be like two busses a day (or none at all). There are some small improvements being made in cities, but they are hugely lacking and slow. They will also likely not survive future governments, which are promising car-centric policies and trying to import the anti-cyclist culture war from the US.
So yeah, it's bleak and the future looks even bleaker. With how things are going politically at the moment urbanism will be the least of our worries though.
Es ist echte eine Katastrophe. Ich werde (rechnerisch) im Oktober Vater werden also wird unser Kind fast zwei Jahre alt sein, bevor es frühestens in die Kita könnte. Bei uns ist es so, dass wir das Kind zwar sowieso nicht unbedingt früher hinschicken wollen und vor allem es uns leisten können, dass meine Frau so lange nicht arbeiten muss, aber wir sind halt auch privilegiert. So gut geht es vielen nicht. Es darf einfach nicht sein, dass nur Menschen mit Geld Eltern werden können.
