Today I had Döner. I usually bring a meal from home, today was an exception.

Just for you:

Zutaten für den Mürbeteig:

• 200 g Mehl
• 0.5 Pck. Backpulver
• 1Ei(er)
• 75 g Zucker
• 65 g Butter
• Fett für die Form

Zutaten für die Füllung:

• 200 g Zucker
• 1 Tasse Ölkleine Tasse à 100 ml
• 4 Ei(er)
• 0.5 Liter Milch
• 1 Pck. Vanillinzucker
• 1 Pck. Vanillepuddingpulver
• 1 kg Quark

1. Für den Mürbeteig das Mehl, Backpulver, 1 Ei, Zucker und Butter verrühren und den Teig dann in 2 Hälften teilen. Eine 28er Springform einfetten und mit der einen Hälfte den Rand formen und mit der anderen Hälfte den Boden auslegen.
2. Für die Füllung alle Zutaten in einer großen Schüssel vermengen und in die Form geben. Die Füllung ist sehr flüssig und verteilt sich somit von selbst.
3. Den Kuchen im vorgeheizten Backofen bei 175 °C Ober-/Unterhitze ca. 1 1/4 Std. backen (sollte er zu dunkel werden, einfach Backpapier oben drauf legen).
4. Nach der angegebenen Backzeit den Ofen ausmachen und den Kuchen über Nacht zum Auskühlen einfach im Ofen stehen lassen.

Last week I made Käsekuchen (German style cheesecake) it was easy to make and delicious!

Edit: I followed this recipe: https://www.chefkoch.de/rezepte/539641151173978/Kaesekuchen-aus-Bayern.html

Renovat my bathroom, install an air conditioning system, use the rest to pay the mortgage.

I think they are wasted time, money and energy. They are a solution to problems that have been solved long ago in much better ways: better urban planning and public transportation.

Not exactly cheaper to get than a Jonsbo case.

If you go look for a used regular PC case, older model will typically have more 3.5" bays. By older, I mean +15yo.

If you have access to a 3D printer, you have options to make more drive bays on the cheap.

You will have to go for a modern power-supply still, in order to have enough SATA power plugs.

Put on an Album is the only way I listen to music. As you said, it’s often intended as one coherent art piece. Nothing wrong with listening to a single song. Still, it doesn’t feel right to me to have a compilation of random songs.

I really enjoyed this album that includes a mini audio story, very immersive: The Loop by Volkor X

People back in the days would copy their vinyls on cassettes in order to not wear them out to quickly.

Tap water is rarely pumped from rivers. Most of the time it’s pumped from groundwater.

It’s a pub, it’s safe !

Like me Ethernet switch with 3 ports on the front and 1 on the side, if only my cable didn’t melt.

In BW I’ve heard servus but not the others, are these Bavarian dialect? I am not a native speaker.

Things you should know how to say (not that it’s necessary, but because it’s nice to know):

• Hallo = Hello
• Tschüss = Bye
• Danke = Thanks
• Dankeschön = thank you very much
• Entschuldigung = excuse me

People commonly use “Ciao” for Bye, and “Sorry” for sorry.

Legal drinking age for beer and wine is 16yo.

I want to give some additional I formation:

• installation doesn’t work on Firefox, must use Chromium
• if on Linux, it may be needed to change permissions to the USB device before it works

I only go to itch.io for erotic games.

Razer Diamond back gaming mouse, shit at clicking, shit quality, over priced

Bohmann air-conditioner, broke after few hours of usage at most. Well within warranty, the reseller(Mediamarkt), and manufacturers took me for a long long ride until I eventually gave up on getting my money back…
