8:26 As a German who is interested in railways, let me explain briefly: So, the German railway used to be very good, and comparing it internationally, it's still pretty decent, but punctuality and reliability have dropped over the last decades. This is mostly because passenger numbers (not entirely sure about cargo) have risen drastically since then and the network is at (or rather above) capacity on many routes. Furthermore, since freight, regional and long distance trains share the same tracks, there are a lot of conflicts between trains going different speeds, and a single delayed train can affect dozens of trains in a domino effect. The reason the network (and in many cases the fleet) hasn't caught up with the demand comes down to how the railway is handled fundamentally. After privatising (it is still 100% state-owned), the government wanted to turn the DB into a publicly traded corporation, but to do this successfully, it had to be profitable and all kinds of cost saving measures were taken. After that failed, savings have been less drastic, but there still isn't a general willingness to invest. Up to 2019, Germany invested less than half as much money per person into the railway as other European countries with a good railway, and with now recently drastically increased investments we're still just up to right about the European average, which simply isn't enough to overhaul the network in the way that is needed, especially in a short amount of time. The government still wants the railway to be profitable or at least cost neutral, while for example the road network doesn't need to be. Add to that that every new railway project immediately hits a wave of political opposition, and you can see why the situation isn't really improving.

@DragonriderEpona

Жыл бұрын

Don't forget that they "shut down" whole railway tracks on the countryside because it wasn't "financially worth it" anymore. There are also a lot of routes where one track is available to get the trains from both directions to their final destinations. Trains often times have to wait for the other train at the railway stations so they can get moving. So if one train is delayed the other one(s) will be as well. DB also cut down their stuff I think about 10 years ago? Which caused canceled trains and delays too. I don't know how far they managed to "fix" it though.

@justuslm

Жыл бұрын

@@DragonriderEpona Those are some of the results of lacking investments and the demand to make money. Many routes simply aren't profitable, but need to be run to at least have some railway connectivity in the area. For the set goal of not losing money overall, closing down as many of those routes as is deemed acceptable is the best option, and the railway tries to strike a balance between losing as little money as possible and providing a decent service. This balance certainly isn't perfect in all places, but really, it can't be. I'm not sure about staff numbers, it was massively cut down some time after the privatization, but there also hasn't been a huge supply of applicants over the last years. I think this has started improving, but I honestly don't know. Of course, staff cost money, too, so you really mustn't have too many.

Well, when I went to school, my teachers didn't tell me to feel guilty. It was more something we would discuss from time to time, like "Do you think we should feel a certain guilt?" I personally think guilt is just not the correct term, it should be more responsibility to do everything to prevent something similar in the future. Although, when I really read certain things about the time back and it really gets me, I kinda feel guilty, but more in a "why are humans like this" kind of way.

It makes you understand the current politically system more and why tolerance, diversity and democracy are worth protecting. It also shows how fragile democracies are.

I don’t know how the stereotype of Germans being humorless got started, but it’s not true. I’ve known several Germans well, and most of them had a pretty good sense of humor. Then again, German humor does tend toward Schadenfreude.

The shutters actually have a pretty amazing history starting in ww2, Where in Britain they took heavy smelly thick blankets and put them over the windows to hide lights that bombers could use to orient themselves at night, in Germany they engineer a solution: Roll laden, which perfectly blocked the light while looking very neat and probably cheaper then the oiled blankets. The original ones by the way were made out of wood and weighted a ton but could be lifted by hand so they weren't very strong against break ins. Later versions included a pin to hold them down from the inside making them superior to todays versions in the home security aspect. Now just imagine connecting them to a motor and your alarm so that when you want to wake up your room fills with light: perfection!

how many germans where sent to the gulag because they forgot to pull them down

I think I’m blind or, probably, too head in the clouds because after 2 years in Germany I still haven’t noticed the stare thing! 😂 NOW, Germans can REALLY well tell you off randomly in the streets! 🤪

There was a story about German POWs in the US during WW2 who taught Americans how to drink beer. The prisoners generally had a good relationship with the guards who ran the camps. In one instance the guards wanted to show the Germans some gratitude for working so hard in the camp by treating them with bottles of beer in a large tub full of ice. The POWs promptly removed the chilled beer and placed them on the porch in the sun. It was unknown to the Americans that Germans liked their beer warm. Also, Never ever state at people in the USA. At best it is highly rude at worst in some neighborhoods it can get you killed. You heard that right. There is a gang culture here and staring at someone affiliated with a gang is flat out dangerous. Even if that person isn't a gang member you can almost expect violence. If you ever are confronted by someone who you are staring at, just say. "sorry, I thought you were someone else".

Not warm but temperated. Especially older folks hold the view that ice cold beer is bad for your stomach. In older times in beer gardens or restaurants it was common to put a 'beer-warmer' (a metal-tube filled with warm water) into your glass when the beer came fresh from the ice cellar to bring it up to drinking-temperature. I like my beer 10-12°C (fridge temp). Some like it a bit colder but you simply can drink more and faster when the beer isn't icy (drinking beer in small sips is universally frowned upon in Germany) and also the tastes of the hops and malts are more cognisable so you can tell better if the beer is good or piss-water. There are some receipes for warm beer with honey and spices as a remedy for a cold or other ilnesses though, but that's nothing you would like to drink every day.

My favorite example is when they started to translate "phaser array" from Star Trek as "Phaser Phalanx" - a nice alliteration, but it's BS. It simply says "Hey, an array is a kind of structure or formation, this is about combat, so we'll simply take a name of a famous battle formation".

As a German living in the US and as a cancer surviver (at that time I was living in Germany) I have to say that the average doctor in Germany is way better than an average doctor or a even cancer clinic in the US. Yes, the US does more research and I was treated according to the newest research results from the US, because my doctor happened to just had returned from a cancer congress in the US, but here I learned that the newest research results are not available to everybody. Yes the US has some of the best hospitals and doctors, but there is not even one in every single state. To laugh out loud my stool sample was even sent across country by mail, because they could not do it in Virginia. I could not believe it. The chemo of a friend also came out of state. I seriously and strongly believe that I would not have survived my cancer if I already would have lived in the US. I had stage 3, grade 3 and here where I live they simply do not know what they are doing. Even at Virginia Oncology. And I also stopped watching American movies. New German movies and series I find way better. Also Skandinavian or movies from other countries. I also dislike all the cussing in US films. American film industry is overrated in my opinion. Yes...there are good American movies and those one definitely has to watch in the original language, but nowadays everybody can keep up with Hollywood. This is my opinion and experience. Too bad one hardly can find any foreign productions on regular American TV.
