    Running away from a gas station without paying is useless because they will have you on camera, either your face or the plates or both no matter what. They can just call the police and they will get you. You would have to conceal yourself and take off the plates, granted you won't be caught by police by accident early for NOT having plates lmao. It's too much hustle.

      Theft under $1000.00 so police won't spare the effort to track.

    I don't know about Germany, but it should be noted that construction with drywall is used all over the world. BTW, my main floor wall structure in Canada was made with cinderblock and it was a pain to update it, as the electrical boxes were originally in holes chiseled right into the cinderblock. (Our insulation is exterior.) The electricians didn't want to chisel new electrical boxes for our new kitchen, so we built another internal wood framed wall in front of the cinderblock just to accommodate the new electrical wiring (and some new plumbing).

      In Germany, drywall walls are only used for renovations. For example, room division.

      no, it is not. to this day i do not get why people claim that. you need about 100kW/h. if you consider running for about 6 hours a day (and you really do not need more with our isolation), that a running cost of about 6€ per month. people in germany just do not realize how efficient ac actually is ...

      @@amduser86 How much does an air conditioner cost per hour? An air conditioner with an output of 800 watts costs around 42.64 cents per hour at an electricity price of 53.3 cents per kilowatt hour. (800 watts × 0.533 euro/kWh = 0.42 euro/h). Now: Take it times 6. 2,52€ a day. Take that times 30. 75,60€ a month. And that 4-5 times (I count it in general, i know that not every day is like 32+ degrees). And yeah, those prices are the higher ones. I did it with the current prices of around 40 cents. Sadly, most houses (because for apartements there is no need for one, a mobile one is more than enough) need a bigger one, therefore 3400!!!!!! Watts x 0,40 euro/kWh = 1,36 euro/h. times 6. Times 30. Times 5-6 depending on the weather and how long it will stay warm. www.blitzrechner.de/klimaanlage/ just for you. I took the 3400 for the "Watt", "täglich" = dayli, 6 hours, like you said. Only took 4 months, though. And the average 40 cents Germans are paying currently. Which would be a monthly cost of around 80€. I don't know which math class you had but you SHOULD have taken a few more lessons instead of sleeping. ALSO, even if we consider the price of 28 cents per new Customer, it would be over 50€ per month. So please go away with you half baked knowledge...🤦 Ouh and also: The costs are around 4000 Euro for the buy and complete installation of the AC. If not more. Denpending on the Company that does it. In most cases, you can't just do anything yourself. We don't like our houses extra crispy 😉

    About alcohol, i'm mexican and In my own experience I drank alcohol for the first time when I was 10 or 9 I think, but only in sips that my father invited me to, and when I was about 14 I drank a whole caribe by myself,And I feel that it is very true that many here have been drinking alcohol since they were very little, which seems almost normal to me. 😅

    I’ve driven off before. Twice. Once I realized later in the day and came back. The clerk had made a note but didn’t get my car’s plate numbers. Evidently it happens a lot, but people return often enough that it’s not worth the trouble trying to apprehend someone.
    The other time, it was my neighbor’s station, and he went to my house and let my son know I could swing by and pay anytime. My kids won’t let me live that one down.
    The embarrassment has been enough to keep me on the straight and narrow ever since.

    Greetings from Germany.
    Collecting bottles: our children were allowed to keep the deposit money if they delivered the collected bottles to the store.
    Gasoline prices and theft: I remember in the 1980s thieves often stole gas directly from a filled-up car. The fuel tank lock on our car was also broken and the petrol was pumped out. In larger cities you often cannot find a parking space right in front of the door or this also happened in Park & Ride places because the thieves were sure that the car would not be moved for several hours.
    Since we rarely use such parking spaces now, I can't say whether this still happens or happens again.
    Air conditioning: some offices and shops use these, but employees often feel uncomfortable because the constant movement of colder air quickly causes neck and shoulder pain.
    At my workplace, therefore, often only the units in the corridors were switched on and those near the actual workstations were switched off.
    Drywall: rarely found, sometimes after renovations or on upper floors of new buildings. But these walls are still thicker than those in America and are usually installed with metal studs.

If you are the one who isn’t familiar with the things she talked about in the video (with which I agree based on my many life experiences), then it seems like you might be the one who lives in a bubble. For this reason it makes me think your response to me is what is called “projection”. Just because people have different experiences than you doesn’t mean they live in a bubble. The fact that you assume that might reveal more about you than it does anything else.
