Wild idea, states should have a central database of the people permanently living there. The fact that they don't seem to have one is baffling to me.

Yes, they did what was convenient for those times. I don't think it's comvenient anymore though, so why not change it? If people start serving a tradition instead of the tradition serving the people... just get rid of it?

Especially if that "church" is the Cult of Scientology, which are famous for ruining people's lives if they're considered a "supressive person"

Yeah, but would you (I assume american) even know enough words to so clearly repeat the opening words? Idk. It's just not something you'd come across often even in Germany outside of history class, german class, or neonazi circles. I assume even less so for non Germany. So that this would be so top of mind for someone to just slip out is just such a strange and unlikely thought to me.

Idk. The phrase is bad, but it wouldn't come up in my top 10 of nazi phrases, so for it to just slip out, I have to to assume that person frequently uses nazi phrases.

Likely we'll never know

Idk, maybe. I listened to the audio, and to me, it did sound like someone who speaks German well. The pronounciations and emphasis sounded very natural. And fans do travel for events like these. Of course it could be an American, but somehow I still doubt it. Is this phrase known in the US?

Idk. I don't think this particular phrase would even enter my mind as something to chant, and I am German. That's not the first time he chanted that, I'm sure. It is taboo for sure, but it's not in the cultural consciousness a lot, there's more "popular" nazi slogans. You'd either have to search your brain for something specifically Hitler related or be very familiar with the old anthem (aka singing it a lot aka being a neonazi).

I do not agree that this is the "most" Hitler thing though. There are so much more famous things, hut they wouldn't fit the situation though.

Germany: A quick nod (head down, not head up) or a one word greeting (morgen, servus, moin, tach) would feel appropriate. But silence usually also is fine unless you're in a really tight knit communities maybe.

I think the weather where I live now is not bad enough to move as the only reason, but if I was looking to relocate anyways I would for sure take it into account. I do not well in heat, especially humid heat, but cold doesn't bother me that much. So somewhere north would be great.

You should get into crossfit. Or ultramarathons.

I think it really depends on the place you're working. My company honestly encourages us to take all of our leave in one chunk, because it's easier to plan with. At least you should take one week at a time. I personally don't like it though. I like looking forward to having a few days off every month. Having a whole month off and then working troughout the year is not for me.

Don't chop me down,

I'm having such a good time,

I'm having a ball

I don't know. An external hard drive? Don't live in the past is my main advice. What's gone is gone. I have like two usb sticks, in different places with the most important data on each of them. The rest is non essential.

I hate that I even have a vague idea what that means.

I'm not an anything person. If anything, I'm a "please don't show me any OS related content in my feed at all" person.

I keep blocking any communities mentioning Linux on my feed, yet it still never stops.

What, you don't want a hundred DLLLRLS?

When I started learning English I pronounced woman as woh-man. Good times

Idk, there's definitely cases were blocking is super important. For example, small/ish institutions that attract a disproportionate amount of hate online but still serve important functions. One that comes to mind is @auschwitzmuseum... like it's always gonna attract holocaust deniers, and not blocking them just exposes people who want to support it to antisemitism all the time.

This is just one example I've witnessed, but there must be many many more. Planned Parenthood...Charities that help people that are considered undesirables. Generally any institution dealing with "controversial" fields. I could go on.

Thank you. That's what years of reddit and hating dubbed media will do for you :) my native language is German, and we do start learning English here pretty early in life. When I was young, we started at 8, but today it's sometimes even earlier. But sadly since I'm out of school my speaking skills are a little rusty, since I don't practice them enough.

Yes, I definitely felt that because of the expectations they had, i had to go the extra mile every time or I'd be worse than someone fulfilling already low expectations. But inevitably, you cannot go the extra mile all the time, so you ket some things slide, and they snowball and then you need to work extra extra hard to keep things from spinning out.

But then, many people's success is earned through way shadier means than "working harder than needed".
