  • Many company names are short wordplays or acronyms with the founders‘ name(s) or location, or with the kind of manufactured goods or types of business. Examples are ALDI, Lidl, Audi H&M, Adidas for names, or Prada, BMW for location, or IBM, SAP for types of business.

    The Asian way seems to be different though, as company names often represent symbols of good fortune, as in Samsung, Sony, Hyundai, but also Nike.

    It’s probably wise to avoid clichés (kool) or insults in common languages („Fuck“ printing and publishing in Germany) too.



  • You must have experienced a different Germany than I have. Lots of incompetent or asshole drivers on the roads. IMO that has nothing (very little) to do with driver education, and everything to do with drivers‘ mentality, as it’s very different regionally within Germany.

    Rules also don’t help if not enforced. What are you suggesting? Lower the speed limit another 10, so they can now go 30 above instead of 20?










  • I find it strange how most people seem fine with this kind of thing. It’s probably safe to assume there are threats against Elon Musks life, and against that of his kids, not to mention the risk of abduction or worse. Tracking his plane makes it all the more easier.

    So again… what’s wrong with you that you not only don’t see the harm, but even seem to celebrate this as some kind of twisted sweet revenge for actions that haven’t even harmed you in any way?
