  • Why do their uniforms look like the Canadian camo pattern?

    Edit: MARPAT (US marine pattern) is straight up copied from CADPAT.

    I think digital/pixelised patterns look unbelievably generic on any countries military. However the colours here look even worse than Canada’s (they get a pass as the inventor of pixelised patterns). It just doesn’t fit with America, does it?





  • I want to answer honestly as well. I looked up the numbers, and we have 2 million wild boars in Germany. Germany has roughly the size of Montana.

    High estimates say, there are 9 Mio in the US, 3 Mio in Texas (twice as large as Germany). So the numbers are rooouuughly comparable, a little more swine here in DE.

    I guess, the feral hogs are really back to being wild nowadays despite stemming from domesticated pigs. So I will classify them as scary as a wild boar. Which they are, they are scary.

    How do we manage this? Each year about 600 000 boars are shot by professional hunters. The general population doesn’t need weapons for that. And the hunting rifles are bolt action or single action, not automatics.

    The main damage they cause is not to live and limb, but to property, namely crop fields. Our solution is, that each hunter is assigned a district and a number he must shoot. If the farmland in his area is damaged more than x% that is also his responsibility.







  • Yeah Pfannkuchen, Eierkuchen, Palatschinken, Plinsen, Flinzen, Crêpe (only on the christmas market) …

    Now please tell me how you call the smaller, thicker “American” pancakes.

    I call them Löffelkuchen (spoon cake) and we make them mostly with berries in the batter (black current or blueberry).
