yes, the big cities in AUS are sprawling, basically like in LA. What is less nice is that you usually drive from one suburb to the next. However, there are tons of parks with ponds, playgrounds, and so on. Such things hardly existed in DE, where I lived (Vorderpfalz).

yes, it is much cleaner than in DE. You will find very few cigarette butts, people hardly smoke. In DE, smoking is actually encouraged, almost every film starts with someone smoking a cigarette. When I still lived in DE, every child could buy cigarettes from a vending machine. I don't know any other country where there were or are cigarette vending machines, maybe in the Eastern Bloc. Strange methods to take money from the taxpayer. In our country, cigarettes in stores are not visible, they are kept behind a lock, you have to ask for them.

Germany is relatively densely populated. Some things just don't work there. There was once a map that swapped the countries so that the inhabitants per square meter would be relatively equal. Germany would then have had to be relocated to Canada. I think it's quite nice that the countries have different building cultures.

Germany also does not hide its beer cans in knitted socks and the like. Cigarette machines have an age verification system. People can still be allowed some personal responsibility. It is known that alcohol and nicotine are harmful to health. Should sweets and fatty foods then only be sold in back rooms?

I am really spoiled with my 6-7 minutes. At our place, Daimler employees commute up to 1 hour or more, and if I convert that into money, I prefer the free time.

He nearly fell off his chair when he saw that it was already half past 10 and still bright outside.

And we are currently ruining that for ourselves by abolishing daylight saving time. Soon in summer, we will see the sunset at 8 p.m.

Why is it already decided which time applies after the abolition? Most people had voted to keep daylight saving time...
