Ich habe viele Jahre in der Bonner Innenstadt gewohnt. Mein Auto stand in der Garage in Beuel, also runde 20 min (Straßenbahn+Fußweg) entfernt.

Wenn ich das Auto brauchte, etwa für Besuche der Familie auf dem Land, Großeinkäufe, Möbel usw., bin ich mit den Öffis oder dem Rad in den anderen Stadtteil zur Garage gefahren. Alles andere ging zu Fuß oder direkt mit ÖPNV/Rad.

Seither bin ich zutiefst überzeugt vom Konzept Tokios: Für jedes auf einen Anwohner anzumeldende Auto muss ein privater Stellplatz nachgewiesen werden. Es ist eben nicht gottgegebenes Recht, in engen urbanen Gebieten den öffentlichen Raum mit Privateigentum vollzustellen.

Inzwischen wohne ich weniger zentral, aber nah genug, um mit dem Rad in die Stadt zur Arbeit zu pendeln. Und zum Mehrparteienhaus gehört eine Tiefgarage. Einen Stadtteil weiter kommen dann die Einfamilienhäuser mit privaten Stellflächen.

Auto mit Innenstadtwohnlage darf Luxus sein.

Seeing that deploying airbags hit like a fist to the face and regularly break noses, maybe reframing airbags as airbombs would suffice as a deterrent.

A decent bike needn't be expensive. For as little as 300€, you can have a new bike that'll do just fine for recreational use and simple commutes. Used bikes can usually be had really cheap, too, but for that you'd best know how to check the components and what to look for.

Race bikes, mountain bikes and pedelecs are a different thing, but those are either specialty sports equipment or luxury items.

Either way, (normal) bikes are easy and cheap to maintain, if used correctly.

Und für alle, die sich weder nerven lassen noch beugen wollen, gibt es auch noch andere Lösungen. Ü

Gibt es irgendeinen Plan, wie verhindert werden soll, dass man dabei mental völlig erschöpft und massiv unaufmerksam wird oder einfach einschläft? Dauerhafte Konzentration ohne Stimulation ist etwas, was das menschliche Gehirn schon rein neurologisch schlicht nicht lange zu leisten imstande ist.

Ich habe buchstäblich zu Beginn des Studiums wieder auf Füllfederhalter umgelernt, inklusive noch einmal Kurrentschrift antrainieren. Klausuren über 4+ Stunden haben trotzdem keinen Spaß gemacht, aber ich hatte über die Jahre keine einzige Karpaltunnelentzündung.

Reifen wechselt man, wie es einem der Opa beigebracht hat:

Schritt 1: Karre aufbocken.

Schritt 2: Radkreuz auf die Radschrauben setzen und dagegen treten, bis die Schrauben ab sind.

Schritt 3: Sommerräder abnehmen, Winterräder anlegen.

Schritt 4: Radschrauben von Hand vorsichtig andrehen.

Schritt 5: Radkreuz auf die Radschrauben setzen und dagegen treten, bis die Schrauben ab sind.

Schritt 6: ADAC rufen, weil man die Radschrauben abgerissen hat.

The original meme template has the guy leaving without looking back due to whatever he sees on the woman's cupboard, implying that there are private ideologies/hobbies/affiliations so repulsive that you'd back out of a one night stand at the last moment.

In this variation of the meme, what he spots on the cupboard seems to be so attractive to him that they have sex until he is exsanguinated, or "pumped empty".

Ich liebe dieses Maimai-Format. Mehr davon!

Fastest speedrun was like not even 10 minutes.

And that was to beat him. Just reaching him and dying to him should go substantially faster:

  • get levitation potions/scrolls
  • grab Icarian Flight
  • have some form of suped speed enhancement (cumulative potions, Boots of Blinding Speed etc.)
  • carefully aim north of Ghost Gate and hop
  • rush through Dagoth Ur (location) into Facility Chamber
  • whack ol' Three Eyes and have him demolish you

The Samsung Galaxy S4 made me a meme at my local network provider store between 2013 and 2015. That model just kept on breaking for no discernible reason.

My first S4 (S4 0), the one that I actually bought with my new service plan, held up nicely for about half a year. Then, it started to randomly power off. Using my phone as my alarm in the morning, I overslept several times due to this. It also just randomly turned off in my pocket, and later even in my hand. I was able to replicate the error in the store. They replaced the phone with a new one (S4 1).

The entirely brand-new phone had a swelling battery after three months, which I replaced out of pocket with a new original one. This one, too, bulged up soon. A third, off-brand battery did the same. Back to the shop I went. Of course, they told me it ought to be user error, which I couldn't disprove on the spot. So I offered to insert one of their brand new batteries and leave my phone with them for two weeks, using a loaner. They accepted and, lo and behold, the phone inflated that battery, too, just lying in their shop drawer being charged. This got me my second replacement device (S4 2).

This phone had no electronic problems. The screen, however, sat visibly snuck between the bezels. I applied a then-novel glass screen protector to the screen instead of the usual adhesive films. The screen developed tension cracks below the screen protector. Back in I went and got the screen replaced under warranty (to my own surprise). I even had them apply a new protector screen which had a little bubble around a speck of dust at the bottom. We were on first name basis at this point, so we laughed about it, arguing that the bubble needn't annoy me too, since I'd be back soon anyway.

I was back soon, anyway. The screen cracked again. They remembered the bubble, saw I hadn't dabbled with the protector, and surmised that the fault needed to be this phones faulty manufacturing. I got the third replacement (S4 3). It'd be my last one, too.

The Samsung Galaxy S4 was a great phone, in and of itself. It had great features at a competitive price point, was really slim and offered good performance while not entirely buying into the whole phablet trend. I liked it, in concept. The people at "my" cellular shop assured me that it was, in fact, freaky how often I had problems with the model. They were said to be as reliable as the current iPhones.

My last Galaxy S4 started to show the known power-off issue a few months shy of 2 years since my original purchase, meaning the EU-mandated warranty was about to run out. I sold it as partly defect and got a different brand phone.

It's still a rather bad deal due to the inflated prices for health care in the US.
