Welll not to be a drag here, but the whole auto industry is a scam.

Sorry about the typo. My German is a rusty 😅 As to whether it’s a shipping or a northern thing, could be both. I used to study maritime navigation in northern Germany and this was a very common saying in between the maritime crowd. Did hear it out side of it though. But I might be mistaken.

In German they have “Wahrschau” which coincidentally also sounds like the name of the capital in Poland, however it comes from shipping industry and to my knowledge is a shorter version of “Wahr nehmen und schauen” which roughly translates to “hey, look at me”. I might be wrong, but that’s what I’ve heard.

Edit: typo 😅 Edit 2: some more of my incompetence

It’s infuriating that lobbying does not just let them fail and give place for some one better

I suppose share holders and the market does. Because the ICE vehicles are still selling better then EVs and to make great EVs, there is a lot of expensive R&D, which why would they do, if share holders want to keep the money rather then spend it

Unfortunately the towels don’t dry very well on the towel rack. But don’t worry. We don’t use stinky towels. They get thrown on 90°C washing immediately 😅

We usually change the bedding weekly, I.e. every Sunday and the towels usually as soon as they start to develop this old wet umbrella stench, which takes about 3-4 days.
