  • German class taught me fünf nach sechs.
    Or if you want a real nighrmare
    6:35
    fünf nach halb vor 7
    5 past half an hour to 7… It’s in my textbook people look at me funny if I use it.
    British English I still haven’t figured out if half 7 is 6:30 or 7:30. Halb 7 in German is 6:30
    Living in Germany coming from north America doing a lot of work with England I miss a lot of meetings that are at 17:30… Either I screw up the 12 hr change and can’t remember if the said 7 or 17 and then where the half hour falls before or after.



  • This could be worse than anything else they’ve done. If they claim they own the data, are they then not responsible for it like newspapers? Is it in their terms and conditions they are free to do whatever with posted information, do they have the rights to edit users comments but in doing so become a content provider and therefore responsible. Kicking mods out doesn’t land you in court this seems high risk to be manipulating content. Doesn’t matter why it was deleted or edited it was deleted or edited who gets to decide what version to restore. Either you are hands off or you own the data and are responsible for it and upheld to media standards.

    Edit: found a snippit of the terms and conditions in a German GDPR thread, It appears it is their terms and conditions that after you post it they can do with it what they like, even adapt it. Either way that’s not a reason to be gone.
