This meme pretty much sums up the difference between Germany and America 

Ja

@@lennartgamer2339 Yes - less funny but more expensive.

To go into a bit more detail, ARD is actually the umbrella organisation for the regional public broadcasting corporations of Germany. They produce a national tv channel officially named "Das Erste" (The First), but often also called just ARD. Arte is a tv channel jointly produced by German and French public broadcasting corporations. It is known for having very high quality content which is also the point of the meme, i.e. how Arte is so high quality while requiring relatively little money compared to other public broadcasting in Germany.

@@roerd The 33 cent a month just looks small. There are 38 million households paying Rundfunkgebühren. So Arte gets 150 million Euro financing every year through the Germans, and the same amount from France.

Also they are publicly funded but not state owned broadcast services, which is something that americans can't really get their head around.

I think he would prefer the term "clamping block RU-vidr" (Klemmbausteine). Lego is actually a brand name, although many use it as a generic term (Gattungsbegriff).

I think you meant likeable not sympathetic😅

He's a German Klemmbaustein (plastic bricks) RU-vidr... since a few years, he doesn't limit his interest anymore to the products of the Lego company, but also presents products from rival companies (since Lego had annoyed him with a letter from their attorneys)

​@@schnelma605 and the difference is important, at least to the Lego company... some time ago Lego's attorneys sent him a letter and demanded that he deletes some of his videos, because he had used the word "Lego" as a synonym for "clamping bricks" in these videos. he complied with the demand, deleted these videos - and recorded them again, now with updated "correct " language... and even more sarcastic remarks. each of the deleted and remade videos gave him some hundred thousand additional views. ... so, clearly a win for him

Yeah. It's pretty shit, but not much different from credit scores in North America. The comparison to China's social credit is a bit of a hyperbole.

@@faultier1158 I don't know, nowadays if you want to rent an apartment your Schufak score matters. Also, if you want to buy something on credit it can be denied if your Schufak credit score is not good enough. My partner wanted to buy an overpriced graphic card once on credit, with installments. He never had a credit before, always paid everything in full and on time. His credit was denied, cause according to Schufak his credit liability was very low. When he called that shitty company to ask, he was informed that his credit score is so low because he never had a credit before, he needs to prove his liabality with a smaller credit payment first, a micro credit. That means, if he wants to for example buy a car with installment payment, he can't unless he would buy a few things with installments that he could easily afford without that - to prove that he pays back those installments on time.

Also, doing a self inquiry will lower your schufa score...

@@olgahein4384 That sounds exactly like what I've heard about the US credit score.

@@EyMannMachHin Well, that's a rumour. It might me true, but you can't prove it. If you could, it would be proof that they were doing something illegal. It's like a Catch-22 made of of Catch-22s.

Holy shit, I just found out "Urlaub für's Gehirn" isn't an original of "Callejon".

well not just residents right? because companies that have something to do for the residents are also allowed. drivers that have an "anliegen" to be there.

@@mauer1 Lets translate it to "residents and their guests and contractors".

@@mauer1 No, it has nothing to do with "anliegen haben". Nothing more than an old myth / misinterpretation of this sign. It really is just "residents only"; residents = Anlieger. Of course that also applies to anyone who wants to go to, meet/visit or do something with such a resident who lives there. But if your "anliegen" is to just use this road to pass through and go to your destination beyound this, than you're not supposed to use this road at all.

That sign is mostly equivalent to "local traffic only" or "no thru traffic" in the US. In OpenStreetMap all three signs get tagged as "access=destination", which means that you may drive into the area if your destination is inside. And trying to translate the pun into English, the other guy's destination/desire is to drive through the road :)

"Residents only" is the same as "Anwohner frei" (tagged as access=private in OpenStreetMap). But this sign is mostly used for paid parking (and only includes people (or their vehicles) who are living there) and while "Anlieger frei" is mostly used for access restrictions (and includes everybody who needs to enter the area).

i had a Medical Shift on a Festival, i am a Volunteer Medic, had sit with some friends and played some Uno because there was no Emergency... we laught and hat fun... then some old women came up to us and told us why the hell we would laugh and we wouldnt be paied for laughing...

Sounds like a rando from South Park: "THeY tOok oUr jObs!"

In fact they can take advantage of the weak Lira since they're getting paid in (relatively) strong Euros. Suddenly that beach house in Antalya is a lot more affordable. Though I am sure that's just the jaded cynic in me speaking. Also huehuehue at "German turkeys", I assume that was on purpose.

Comparrison between 2 awsome channels! I never expected a comparisson!

Danke dir. Das mit K.I.Z. hab ich selbst als Deutscher nicht verstanden.

Erdogan didn't win because of the turkish people in germany. Their numbers are far too little. Still it is strange to see that turkish citizens, who often left turkey bc of all the problems Erdogan and his party cause, still vote for him.

​@@DeadGirlsPoemI would guess its due to the 2nd and 3rd generation of turks which always lived in Germany and never actually went to turkey except for vacation

@@DeadGirlsPoem Ok. Thanks for the clarification. I thought it was like that.

It is rather due to the schizophrenic attitude of Turkish voters in Germany. They live in a politically quite liberal country, but vote for what some call a tyranny and others an autocracy in Turkey.

@@DeadGirlsPoem is it really soooo little?

Let me correct that. There are a lot of Germans living in Turkey 2.0

Not only that, turks living here are allowed to vote for the turkish president.

... and Türkiye's presidential elections were recent

yes and the memes are about the people who reelect an idiot for president because they live in Germany and don't have to deal with his bullshit

They also like that the turkish lira is going down. That means they can easily buy big property there quite cheap for Euros earned in Germany. The poorer Türkiye gets - the richer they will be.

Totally underrated comment. Hilarious - and so true! 😂

Many businesses and public offices have not (yet?) returned to how they operated before. For example, my tire shop still has a corona sign where the "free coffee for customers" machine was...

In many cases that might be true, but I never heard aufdatum a single time in Germany and nobody would get it as well. We would either use the word Update or Aktualisierung.

@@tobiwallner5483 I do not watch him that much but it is very interesting to see some weird gun designs. The one that immediately pops up in my head is the "Kraut Space magic" one where he talks about a German gun which uses caseless amunition. He is also quite entertaining to watch if you want to know how some historical gun designs worked.

Indeed. Gun Jesus is a very positive example of a firearms enthusiast. A legitimate collector and historian, well mannered, focuses on facts and keeps current politics out of it entirely.

Schufa = protective association for creditprotection ( of financial institutions) (Schufa Holding AG founded in 1927) -> was once founded to prevent people from becoming over-indebted. Yes, they collect financial information (loans->non-mortgages, credit cards, checking accounts, late payments, garnishments, etc.) Every citizen can receive free information about the collected/transmitted data once a year. Landlords often request a Schufa information template -> this form of information is chargeable..

I agree, that "Denglish" has become more and more popular. Not only among young people but amongst genX and millennials, too. I would connect that to commercials' and advertisements' influence in general: In the 1990s brands, which operate globally, started to use the same slogan for all countries - on the one hand, to strengthen the brand and make it worldwide recognizable more easily. On the other hand to save time and money as well as to penetrate new European markets quickly: When the Eastern block and Balkan countries (former Soviet Union, GDR [former Eastern Germany], Poland, Tchech, Slovakia, and so on) opened their borders, there were huge new markets for Western global players. They were about to enter those new markets at the same time as their competitors - first comes first served. It would have cost tons of money to adjust their campaigns to each country individually. Keep in mind almost all of these countries don't use Latin letters, but have unique alphabets with unique letters. Therefore the slogans usually were in English and in Latin letters, to make sure the brand was recognized in each country, because the inhabitants of these countries were allowed to travel now internationally, too. They should recognize the brand while traveling, too. A consistent slogan made that easier. Therefore the political changes in Europe during the 1990s influenced the markets, what influenced the branding, what influenced the daily language in general. The guy talking about partying with Germans is clearly no native speaker, so his "Denglish" is more "naturally" switching between German and English.🙂 But I'd like to claim "Vorgluehen" is more common against young people, since they have less money and want to save money at the bars where drinks are expensive. Somehow you might argue, that another type of "German efficiency". 😃

I haven't ever watched a video about guns, but I imagine that an expert taking them apart and explaining how they work sounds super interesting to me. I might check him out.

@@Ellisepha It's a really good channel. It's not like one of those two words two shots channels. A lot of the times the firing of the gun is in an separated video so if your not into that stuff you don't have to watch it.

@@Ellisepha Ian McCollum (also known as Gun Jesus) is a walking gun encyclopedia who really digs into obscure and unusual (and well-known) weapons and provides an in-depth explanation about both their origins, their history and how they actually work (including a full disassembly of the firearm in question and a thorough explanation how exactly every single part works). My personal favorites are his videos about very obscure, mostly one-off weapons which usually originate from areas like early 20th-century China or the infamous Khyber Pass weapons still produced today. Mind you, you do NOT want to shoot any of these if you value your life :D

The gun jesus is interesting, because he usually shows how these guns work mechanically. So if you like tinkering with mechanical things this is somewhat fascinating. Most other gun related channels only show some rednecks shooting stuff on the ranch, which is uninteresting and supremely boring.
