  • I don't remember the exact page, but there are a few websites that will deDRM an amazon eBook for you for free.

  • Same in Germany. The big grocery chains all deliver for a reasonable fee. Also, at least in big cities, most neighborhoods have a grocery store in walking distance for most people. Delivery becomes almost unnecessary (for the able-bodied folks)

  • Wohl schon seit November 2022 gibt es die günstige Abo mit Werbung, hab ich gerade nachgelesen. Mein Abo ist wohl ohne Werbung, deshalb nicht bemerkt. Außerdem zocke ich nur noch :D

  • Bin gerade zu Besuch in den USA und hier hat auch Netflix schon Werbung mittendrin. Echt widerlich!

  • I've had a Fairphone for a couple years now, didn't realize its Ubuntu ready? How if the Ubuntu smartphone OS?

  • As much as I loved SDV when I played through it, I don't know if I could start another run despite the new content. Too much lol

  • Ob es legitim ist, kann ich nicht sagen. Für viele Angebote da scheint man WBS haben zu müssen, deshalb so "günstig"... Alles andere ist am Stadtrand...

  • US? Regulations? Lolz

  • Genau daran habe ich auch gedacht. Wenn ich an Unsinnsurteile denke, kommt Deutschland nicht wirklich im Kopf. Aber doch werden ganz viel Unsinsurteile ausgeteilt, scheinbar.

  • I'm on Ubuntu Studio and using Ardour (though I also got Reaper and have been meaning to try it out). There is a LinuxAudio community here on Lemmy you can visit to get some advice!

  • Haha genau das habe ich beim lesen gedacht. "Warum hilft mir denn keiner? Ich vermisse Walmart!" lol

  • I went as a student (free university!) and managed to stay.

  • Same with the resentment! Lots of people in the US don't want to hear how much better it is elsewhere. GrEaTesT NaTiOn oN eArTh!

  • As an American who has been abroad for many years, can confirm! I'm visiting the states at the moment and its crazy to hear a family member talking about trying to convince their boss that the employees should get five paid sick days a year instead of only three. Three! A year! Insane.

  • Didn't know that a YouTube series even existed, thanks for the post! I loved the whole trilogy.

  • My preferred app (RedReader) was allowed to stay,apparently for free, but I still deleted my account. A shame, it was a great app!

  • One of the best answers so far, thanks! I'm not a foreigner, but I've been gone for over half my life, so it certainly feels like it. Coming back it always a culture shock.

  • In all honesty, I will probably just tip the minimum amount and try not to let it get to me. Its not like I'll be out eating by myself anyway, there will be plenty of social pressure to help me along :)

    But imagine if all jobs worked this way. Oh, you wanted a good outcome for your surgery? Maybe you should have tipped your surgeon! Oh, you wanted your taxes done correctly? Should have tipped! Sorry boss, I would have gotten you that report on time, but you forgot to leave me a tip!

    I also think its silly that tips are based on the price of your meal, as if that has anything to do with the service whatsoever. So the person who ordered a steak pays more in a tip than the person who ordered a salad? Why? It would make way more sense to tip based on time spent in the establishment. I would understand a standard 5$ tip per half-hour or something way more.

  • I'm a big fan of the Techknitter blog. Her posts are so informative and get right down to the (k)nitty gritty of knitting.

    Here is a detailed post about ribbing which may or may not make your brain spin even more
