It's quite interesting that different democratic systems have their own unique aspects, and if you try to change some to the international standard, it throws the whole system out of whack and endangers the democratic foundations (see voter ID in the US)

Proportional representation kinda reduces the need for open primaries through the expansion of your palette of choice.
The most fucked political system is GB where you have both FPTP and weird power broker internal party politics (even leaving Reform UK Ltd. aside)

Wenn das geht, wÀre ich ja dafür, der Firma Max Bâgl einen fixen Vertrag zu den von ihnen behaupteten Kosten zu geben, dann sollen die Beweisen, dasss das günstigster als eine Straßenbahn ist, und womâglich hat man dann auf deren Kosten am Ende eine Art U-Bahn stehen

Find's ja eigentlich interessant, wie die Magnetschwebebahn als Alternative zur Straßenbahn diskutiert wird, wobei das eigentlich als Γ„quivalent einer U-Bahn gesehen werden sollte (sowohl von den Baukosten als auch der BetriebsqualitΓ€t her)

Also, beyond some UK mayors, German MinisterprΓ€sidenten are very much recognized throughout the country with types like SΓΆder, WΓΌst, Kai Wegener, Kretschmann etc. having a lot of notoriety

I guess you do have local elections in the UK, but they have very low turnout

I mean the BundeslΓ€nder do very much matter in a political sense too, they have quite a lot of influence through the Bundesrat, and state level elections are regular enough that they are a fairly good indicator of confidence in the central government

Yes but the app still says that train type has power outlets, so have to officially be for passenger use too.
Like there aren't any other outlets throughout the train

Generally they have multiple monolingual stickers like that in different languages throughout the carriage iirc

I mean the SNCB app does advertise trains with shitty power socket placement as equipped with power outlets, so who knows

Ja, ich wΓΌrde es aber nicht unbedingt ΓΌber mehrere AbsΓ€tze hinweg machen, weil das dann den Leser eher verwirrt. MΓΌsstest dann aber zwischendrin dann den eigentlichen Namen ErwΓ€hnen.
Aber im darauffolgenden Satz total normal

I'm going to be screwed when my collection of shitty SPD pens from the last election runs out, may even have to pay for something proper (I'm the type of guy who always managed to get my fountain pen nibs slightly bent to the point where they were too scratchy)

Turns out I already kinda did a dry January except for New Year's Day and my orchestra rehearsal trip (Erfurt is kinda boring that way)

No idea what kind of guy buys pasta in a sale and immediately decides they immediately need a jar of sauce FROM THE SAME BRAND, but apparently they exist

Learned in BWL that Barilla often reduces the prices of their pasta because apparently that drives sales for their (much more expensive) sauces and pestos

Maybe cycling/walking plays a role too?

Picky eaters definitely were an enormous issue when kids came over to my house. On the other hand, compared to Germany, restaurants and supermarkets were considerably better and quite a bit more affordable

I think there's a lot of great food in the UK, but growing up there and seeing the slop most people ate when I visited was kinda sobering, mostly just frozen stuff. No wonder most kids I knew there were ridiculously picky eaters

Also East Germany had really good education system, so there would definitely have been a lot of demand in the west

Even bigger brain drain towards the west, the difference vs. the countries further to the east was that there wasn't a language barrier

Northwest Germany really doesn't tend to get much snow, I'd assume the same goes for the Netherlands
