I know, since I replied to this:

I think they’re saying that children who are born in the new country should be counted as foreigners. Which is kinda fucked up but yea

Looking up the article the baseline is French and English I’d say. So it might be biased, but I didn’t read the article and even if I did, I’m a chemical engineer so what do I know of this field.

It would actually depend on where in Germany you are going, but since the first Turkish “Gastarbeiter” (among others, quite some nationalities) came to West Germany over 60 years ago, it is not uncommon to meet people of Turkish descent there. (East Germany not so much, they had Vietnamese workers but mostly deported them back to Vietnam after the re-unification.) Combine these Gastarbeiter (and the three generations after them) with a declining native birth rate and an influx of asylum seekers, and it could well be 40-50% all together.

The big question is what the problem is here, and the answer is that the far right wants it to be a problem so they can come to power. So they’ll bloody make it a problem and try and sabotage any solutions. These last lines are my personal opnion obviously.

After his town hall meeting, it’s safe to say he isn’t going to do anything when elected since Vance will be president.

From what I gathered (years ago, so take it with a grain of salt), he couldn’t get funding because he hugely miscalculated the distance to India if you’d travel west, like more than half the the distance. Most sailors and scolars knew better, but somehow he got the funding from the Spanish queen.

The Dutch government is basically controlled by the PVV party, who’s founder and leader used to be a settler on the west bank. They run on a heavy anti Islam/ anti refugee platform. So basically, “Isreal good, brown people bad”.

The reversed rule in plumbing is only for gas lines in the Netherlands.

Same here, except for my dad, he is clumsy as hell.

I don’t think I’ve ever owned any version of Windows.

Maybe not your hobbies (or mine), but these are all examples of an activity that someone does for pleasure when they are not working.

I read earlier “someone” were a couple of college students.

Thanks

The literal meaning was defined “to drink”. If you drink something, it becomes a part of you.

Same for overmogen in the Netherlands. And eergisteren for the day before yesterday.

Yikes!

I get the hate for Comic Sans, but lets face it, 2004 is a long time ago. Also, this is a comic…

I live in the Netherlands, and fired for cause is very hard over here. Basically the employer needs solid evidence of misbehaviour, and even then most judges will still rule in favour of the employee.

Three months would be excessive in the Netherlands. The legal minimum is one calendar month. When you resign you can always negotiate to shorten the period, but most of the time people will work the remainder of the contract. Also, your new employer might actually think there is something wrong if you can quit your current job faster than the one month.

First, this seems to be three years old. Second, he is one of the contributors to HA, HA was originally started by Paulus Schoutsen who is still an active contributor.

Companies only do things for their bottom line, not for customer demand. Also, if nobody would buy gas from Shell anymore, their gas stations would just have to be rebranded to something else. Behind the scenes the oil companies are all trading with each other.
