While quite interesting, the Bermuda triangle didn't concern me that much actually.

The movie Volcano (1997) however scared the shit out of young me, and I had problems sleeping for days. That was an issue I'd have liked to be solved.

du [...] beführwortest Steuerhinterziehung

Interessante Unterstellung, wo hab ich das den gesagt? auf Steuerhinterziehung prüfen [...] ich kann denen das gönnen

Du befürwortest es vielleicht nicht direkt, aber selbst in dem Post in dem du gegen die Unterstellung vorgehst legst du direkt nochmal nach. Deinen eigenen Worten zufolge billigst du es.

Yes, that would be a Google killer. If you somehow find the money to provide it for free.

Finding a novel way of searching is one thing. Finding a novel way of financing the whole endeavor (and not going the exact route Google is) is another.

Dieter Althaus in dem Text zu finden überrascht mich... absolut gar nicht.

All kinds of IPO don't live up to their expectations. Facebook went down hard back in the day, for example.

Ha, correct. Originally I wanted to write how many beer cans/bottles, which are mostly 0,5L here. Then I decided against it, and mind abscently made the multiplication into the other direction.

The L/annum means "pure" alcohol. Nobody is drinking 1,2L of pure alcohol an evening. That's the equivalent of 3L 40% Schnaps, or ~~12L~~ 24L 5% beer.

That technicality aside, alcohol is incredibly expensive in Türkiye. It's basically west European prices by now (for beer), and even more expensive than western Europe for everything else. Also the numbers are probably higher than the 1,2L because a lot of people started making their own alcohol - because of the cost of buying it from the markets.

All important things for sure. But life changing implies that this $1000 single handedly turn their life around.

When you are poor the $1000 might be quite a bit of money, and very useful to have, but afterwards you're still poor. That's my issue with that kind of statement.

When used to prevent a life and death situation it sure saved your life, but did it turn it around?

That would be indeed life changing. Thanks for the perspective.

AITA for thinking most people who say "$1000 would change my life" would certainly not have their lives changed by that money? In this example, with the new phone being pointed out (4000 for tuition aside), I cant help but imagining he'd just buy a new computer or a pile of games.

Realistically what can $1000 buy (in the US) that actually changes a life?

And continue as before, because that worked so well?

I guess people were just fed up with how good everything was, that they voted for him.
