Look at the wall papers and chairs. The lower picture has saturation upped to the limit. But true, maybe that was the original photographer and not whoever assembled this meme.

The difference is that this is in a historic imperial palace (Yildiz palace) with (refurbished) historic imperial chairs... They don't just look like they were build for the padishah, they were build for the padishah (Abdul Hamid II).

You could have decided not to turn up the saturation to make it look worse, as it looks already terrible...

As a gamer and a Linux user for more than 20 years this thread is so awesome.

I actually mostly stopped playing sometime in the late 2000s (dual booting was annoying) and restarted around 2017. We have come so far...

That is completly normal in Germany (and most of the rest of this world). Only very few buildings have separate grey water lines.

A"siphon" or "trap" is why this doesn't cause a smell problem.

Normally a separate grey water line is only used, if the grey water can be used on the property. A separate public grey water collection system is almost unheard of, except in some scientific project related developments (there has been some research into this, but it hasn't proven to be a reasonable solution, for now at least).

I might have to add that I am a civil engineer specialiced in urban water management. :)

If it works, it works, I guess. It didn't at our case (clogged too badly, the previous inhabitant did some, weird shit), hence the plumber.

I did it like you did and then the shit water came up the bathtub several cms high. Later attempts changed nothing. Was a disaster. But the plumber went wild and it worked.

It's worse in Germany.

You don't have to get a seal. You just push it in. Then quickly pull it out, push it in, pull it out, push it in, ... until the water drains freely again. The pushing-pulling iteration creates enough negative pressure to get the job done quickly without a seal. But don't wear your best clothes.

I always did it wrong, until a plumber showed me how to do it.

(Side note, this is for a european/german toilet. Might be different in the US, US toilets are just insane.)

I think 70°C for a long enough time is already enough. But yeah, I'd also throw it away.

Are you 100% sure there is no physical card? Did you ask the local provider? I just ask, because I have a physical card for the Deutschland Ticket.

Other than that there is a Deutschland Ticket app. But it won't work for every provider. It does not for mine.

I cannot quite put my fielder on it, but something about the specific way they are kneeling seems disrespectful towards the god they pray to.
