Depends. DXracers look not so good after a few years, other brands hold up quite well though. A lot of Mercedes cars actually use synthetic leather (MB-Tex), and you wouldn’t know by just looking at it 10 years later.

Sorry, but that is not true for all of them. At least Maxnomic was really cautious when I wanted to buy a chair to make sure I got the right one for my size and figure, regardless of looks. They also offered to swap out the gas lift for one of different length if I wanted to fit larger (and more silent) wheels so that…

Looks like a straight copy of the Maxnomic chairs. They have models for larger persons too, but they look more sturdy, especially the wheelbase. (and they feel sturdy too, the normal office&gaming chairs from them weigh more than 25kg)

Die By the Sword is ancient to be honest. What the videos don’t show is that the VSIM attack method worked by moving your mouse across the mousepad the way you wanted to swing your weapon.
The problem here is that the new kid on the block is an arcade game, while Chivalry, DBTS and similar are more like simulations to…

Yeah, Chivalry really is a nice game. Oh, you weren’t talking about that? Then it must have been Die By The Sword. Oh, not that one either? Oh, that flashy 90s arcade slaughterthing that looks like the Dynasty Warriors series... what was it called again, Mountain Blöd?

Why not use Dry Ice Blasting?

The whole stuff came off european Ford models. Think Escort, Fiesta etc... what was available in the 80s. Also the reason why the XJ220 has one of the lamest Supercar keys of all times :D

Nope, but through the Ford connection it shared the indicators and keylocks with a 1989 Ford Fiesta GFJ :D

No, that is what you spend for parts with a warranty on them that have been selected and tested together and actually fit. There’s also the work that went in the instructions to get them to fit, testing etc...
Sure, you can buy some parts cheaper, but you’ll have to do a lot of guesswork on your own, and at least over…

So does my Volvo 850R. But W124 also hold a special place in my heart. Drove a 300 Diesel T-Modell for a while, unbelievably good car. 400000km, with no repairs. I mean: NO repairs, not even a new windshield, just normal maintenance.

Tefal Snack Collection FTW. Not only removable, but interchangeable plates for almost everything.

When I read the voices about “voting against socialism” I can only cringe in horror. “over half of his income went to the government” - yeah, and it is not as if the government did nothing in return for you, did it? The taxes people are so against pay the salary of everybody working for the state, they pay for…

Except that if you only have access to common 120V outlets you won’t be getting that 1 hour charge situation. Even then, one hour is too much when driving longer distances. Here in Germany I can easily empty a tank of a faster car on 300-400km of Autobahn. I need five minutes to refuel it and then I’m good for the…

Mike, have you looked at the Maxnomic lineup? Available from needforseat.com , you might want to look at the Office-Comfort or even XL series. I got one from the Pro Gaming&Office range myself, it is firmer than most other seats, but still very comfy. The base design underneath is very similar to DXracer and AKracing,…

Hah! We northern Germans can do better! Mettbroetchen it is!

If only wee Dschörmänz could enjoy it. Got a strange puzzle game instead. Damn Censorship.

True, they are as clueless as some of the HR departments and managers themselves. I found that working in the SAP area means that have you have to navigate a lot of Buzzword Bullshit Bingo, put the right acronyms in your resume and you are instantly hired even if you never worked on a live system, have lots of…

Thanks for the clarification, I never had to go that far - until now I never was unemployed for more than 2 weeks ^^
Yes, the duty to find something yourself was what I was getting at. Although it seems to become more harsh towards long-term unemployed people, or if you turn up at interviews deliberately in such a…

Then you seem to have counted wrong. Because the playstation list contains 447 games in total, over all systems. Some are only playable on the Vita, some only on PS3, some only on PS4 etc..
If I cound the PS3 only games, we have 329 games - over 100 less, still an impressive number though.
But if we now look at how many…

The problem is: The company has to go into liquidation for any government funds to flow. Also, you have to be fired to receive unemployment support. If you leave the company on your own you will actually be banned by German law to receive unemployment help for several months (because you quit a secure job, it doesn’t…
