The US is an outlier, most countries cannot do this. Because otherwise you could be jailed for years if you shoplift ten times or something.

The upper limit is usually only used for sentencing if it's a repeat offender or if occured multiple times.

Dreimal darfst du raten.

Still 80% convinced it's a Rockstar marketing operation.

Absolutely nothing was shown that would reduce hype. Why wouldn't the leaker spoil the entire story and get maximum attention?

Motion blur is great in racing/driving games, but that's largely it. BeamNG.drive added it a couple updates back and it improves the looks a lot in my opinions. Makes speed feel actually fast.

Musste erst überlegen was 1888 heißt, hätte eher 1488 erwartet. Zwei Hitler in einer PIN sind ein bisschen zu viel.

Now that's just over the top, try being more modest will you?

Well, the thing I'm referring to translates exactly to homeowner association in English. And not only does it do that, the Wikipedia articles link each other.

A tenant's association feels much different. Tenants don't have any decision rights as to what will be done to the apartment block considering they don't own the place. At best they can demand infrastructure improvements from their shared landlords if e.g. the elevator breaks every week.

And a residential association seems to just be a neighborhood association? So just a group of neighbors coming together to organize both political advocacy and barbecues.

This Wikipedia article also mentions the need for an HOA: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Condominium

What if you hold it like this? Bonus points if you give your fingers a well-deserved bath:

HOAs do exist in Europe too. Because it's impossible to coordinate maintaining shared property without them.

The central heating system is showing its age. With what technology will it be replaced? Gas? Oil? Heat pump? A connection to district heating?

If it's a heat pump, should you put solar panels on the roof? If so, who pays for them? Everyone? What if some don't want to? How will revenue be shared if only some are willing to pay the cost? How will you calculate how much it costs to heat one apartment whose owner shares ownership of the solar panels versus how much it costs to heat one apartment whose owner doesn't?

Well, adapters themselves aren't sufficient because usually headphones with that port (including mine) require a shitton of power to overcome their impedance.

So a whole new DAC (digital-to-analog converter) that can power them¹ is usually required as most devices (with a 3.5 mm jack) are just too weak.

But I only use them with my PC so I got an old PCIe sound card to be able to use them.

¹ Technically you only need an amplifier but a DAC usually contains an amplifier outside of studio level hardware

Aw, 3.5 mm is cute.

My headphones have a 6.35 mm port ;3

Though you do need dedicated hardware to use it with anything because nothing has the corresponding jack by default :/

The profile discrepency makes this even funnier.

Real "streets vs sheets" energy here.
