Spoons, forks, knives. That's the only correct order. Knives are on the right because you use them with your right hand, obviously.

Mein Grundsatz ist: wenn es direkten Kontakt mit dem 230V Stromnetz hat, wird es nur von bekannten Marken gekauft.

Ehrlicherweise sollte man aber wahrscheinlich auch bei allem was Akkus hat oder potentiell große Ströme transportiert (beim Schnellladen zB) vorsichtig sein. Selbst USB-Kabel können zB überhitzen wenn sie mit höheren Strömen betrieben werden als sie vertragen können. Bei starken Ladegeräten also lieber auch nicht das Temu-USB-Kabel verwenden.

Linguine sind die besseren Spaghetti.

I don't know if that's just a German thing, but: Swiffer.

The knockoffs are all crap.

Richtig cool wie das Rhein-Hochwasser an der Grenze zu NRW einfach aufhört.

In Europe, the chocolate bar "Twix" was called "Raider" until the 1990s or so. When they changed the name, they ran a famous ad campaign with the slogan "Raider is now called Twix!" which is still not only remembered but even became an ironic saying (at least in Germany) for when things (try to make it) seem like they change but they actually stay the same.

So... Twitter is now obviously called Twix for me.

I think it's a "Europe minus UK" thing, but I don't know for sure. Pretty certain though that the French write it like that too.

Thank you for being responsible. Maybe another rapid test can clarify things. Whatever it is, I hope you get better soon!

There was no doubt I was still positive, I was in bed feeling like crap and going absolutely nowhere. I actually did the test to see if these rapid tests actually give consistent results rather than to see if I still have covid. And because I'm a scientist and I just like measuring things.

Even if it's negative now?

Yeah I had 3 shots, but the last one was two years ago. Had thought about getting a 4th one for months but there is no official recommendation for a 4th shot for people under 60 in my country so I didn't. I actually regretted that now, it was pretty nasty. But yeah, completely without vaccines it probably would have been horrible so I'm really glad I got those.

I had the sweating/freezing thing too, didn't put it into the diagram because I thought it was a side effect of the fever.
