Next up: worldwide universal free at point of service healthcare!

What do you MEAN that's more difficult to achieve??

[-] Kyoyeou@slrpnk.net 2 points 11 months ago

Not for Lemmy it is not!

[-] wegettosss@sh.itjust.works 53 points 11 months ago

Good ending

[-] FluorideMind@lemmy.world 45 points 11 months ago

Minecraft looking pretty good these days.

[-] hardypart@feddit.de 29 points 11 months ago

Is this in Germany? This looks very German to me and I can't even tell why.

[-] sznowicki@lemmy.world 21 points 11 months ago

Yes it’s Germany. Hessen.

[-] mack7400@lemmy.world 7 points 11 months ago

Somewhere in the Reichstag: "Mein gott! A gartenlicht ist kaput somewhere! Hans! Schnellschnellschnell!!!"

[-] philpo@feddit.de 3 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Dude,that is not done in the Reichstag,that is far too inefficient.

We of course have our own government department for that, the Bundeswegbeleuchtungsreparaturamt (Federal footpath lighting repair authority) which is part of the Bundesimmobilienverwaltung(Federal real estate authority).

There are of course similar institutions on the state level (besides Saxony/Sachsen, it seems they like to live in the dark) like the Landesweglichtverwaltung (State path light administration) of Baden-Wurttemberg.

Some larger communities have similar agencies,but most simply have a commissary for it (Dorfweglichtbeauftragter), and yes, they are mostly named Hans, Dieter or sometimes Horst.

This is actually a very sensitive topic as the people suffered a lot during the war time black outs and therefore wanted to make sure that never happens again. (Besides Saxony, as I said,they prefer to keep it like 45 in some places).

[-] Obi@sopuli.xyz 2 points 11 months ago

Can't even tell if you're messing with us or if this is completely true.

[-] hardypart@feddit.de 2 points 11 months ago

Im German and I can't even tell if he's joking.

[-] philpo@feddit.de 2 points 11 months ago

What? Messing with you? That would imply humour, which is inefficient and therefore forbidden by law!

This is scandalous!

[-] schnokobaer@feddit.de 2 points 11 months ago

We heff eckssidentally repläced wan bulb with a kaltweiß kind, Wolfgang get ze shotgun

[-] MaggiWuerze@feddit.de 1 points 11 months ago

shotgun

Schrotflinte heißt das

[-] hardypart@feddit.de 1 points 11 months ago

Haha, sauber :D

[-] Damage@feddit.it 8 points 11 months ago

It's the shape of the building

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

Looks just as plausible to be in the US.

[-] barsoap@lemm.ee 1 points 11 months ago
[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

Those things are at apartments in the US...

[-] barsoap@lemm.ee -2 points 11 months ago

And risk being sued for medical expenses?

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 4 points 11 months ago

Yes? There's an apartment building I drive by all the time that has a playground.

[-] barsoap@lemm.ee 0 points 11 months ago

With a thing on a spring that is an injury lawyer's wet dream? Also that thing is not cordoned off, it's for general use, even though privately constructed.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

You know those spring things are in public park playgrounds, right? My daughter played on them when she was younger all the time.

[-] barsoap@lemm.ee 0 points 11 months ago

All I can say is American expats are regularly gob-struck by how "unsafe" our playgrounds are. Where "unsafe" means fun and a place where kids can learn to judge risks and develop independence.

Are you even allowed to let a kid play there while you're inside or is the CPS going to drag you to court for it?

[-] Confused_Emus@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago

There's nothing in that playground you couldn't find in a typical American playground. The Americans you know apparently just have the personalities of wet towels.

[-] wreel@lemmy.sdf.org 1 points 11 months ago

America has a lot of problems but the idea that Americans can afford to be frivolously litigious is hilarious.

[-] Khotetsu@lib.lgbt 1 points 11 months ago

Nah, if it were the US, that playground would be a parking lot.

[-] DontTreadOnBigfoot@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

How many Germans does it take to change a light bulb?

[-] Obi@sopuli.xyz 2 points 11 months ago

One, they are efficient and don't have humour.

[-] FQQD@feddit.de 14 points 11 months ago

this just restored my faith in humanity

[-] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 13 points 11 months ago

Also turned up the ambient lighting (the sun), while they were at it, I see! Result!

[-] Neeen@sh.itjust.works 12 points 11 months ago

This is the kind of content I live for right here. Good shit op

[-] SuzyQ@sh.itjust.works 5 points 11 months ago

Idk if it's my app or what, but the link to the original post takes me to yiff... I'm using Connect on Android.

[-] LazaroFilm@lemmy.world 6 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Yiff might have a link grabber. I wish apps could parse links and redirect them in app. It’s an issue on many apps on iOS too.

[-] sockenklaus@sh.itjust.works 2 points 11 months ago

Nope it's not you. I am using jerboa. When I click on the link it opens a furry post. When I copy the link and open it in Firefox, it opens the intended original post.

[-] MaggiWuerze@feddit.de 1 points 11 months ago

Might be your app, I just saw someone mention the same issue in another thread

[-] Scubus@sh.itjust.works 1 points 11 months ago

Transyiff at that

[-] brb@sh.itjust.works 1 points 11 months ago

Works on Sync

[-] snek@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Excuse me, is this in Sweden by any chance?

Scratch that, just saw OP say it's Germany. Goddamn, they look like the lights next to my apartment block rofl plus the nordic feel

[-] crimsdings@lemmy.world 2 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

Could be a random place in Vienna aswell, just by looking at it. Guess architecture is converging

[-] Shellbeach@lemmy.world 1 points 11 months ago

Could well be in Switzerland as well. I thought it was behind my appartement building.

[-] Fallenwout@lemmy.world 3 points 11 months ago

Unexpected but very nice of them to do so.

[-] ElderWendigo@sh.itjust.works 1 points 11 months ago

That link to the "Original Post" doesn't seem to work, unless I'm missing the joke.

[-] chuso@kbin.social 10 points 11 months ago

It works for me, so the issue must be on your side (or they fixed the link)

[-] ChapolinColoradoNZ@lemmy.world 0 points 11 months ago
