Who doesn't miss gaming from the past? That was a real treat. Today I enjoy it less, although there are good offers. Maybe that will change again one day

I agree with you, but it's always been up and down, so I think "great fun" is an exaggeration. But you just had a lot more wins and therefore payouts. And even if you didn't get a payout, you could often have several hours of fun with a penny invested (you didn't need a 5-second rule that robbed you of time). The amount of wins you get today is also generally lower. Of course, big wins are better shared than small wins, so you might think there are still enough winners, but if you've been playing for the last 13 years, you'll notice that something has changed.

Tonight was the first time I was really scared of thunder and lightning. There was a very strong thunderstorm in my town, but mostly just in one spot, right where I live. 30 meters as the crow flies, a bolt of lightning crashed into a tree. I woke up at night because of loud thunder. the 2 or 3 flashes I saw through the windows were closer than I'd ever seen before. I'm normally always on the first floor, but I went down to the first floor because I was afraid something might strike here. The thunder that came almost at the same time as the lightning was hellishly loud and the lightning beam could be seen very close up

Speaking of your city: are they actually exaggerating in the reports about the "White Giant" in Duisburg-Hochheide? Or is it really that heavy? It's still relatively new in my collection of hotspots The frontrunner so far has actually been Hagenweg 20 in Göttingen https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oiZzUXQHB6E&t=1s. Not forgetting Kölnberg in Meschenich, of course There are many more reports throughout Germany....Strangely enough, though, there are very few reports about my area, although there are plenty of places in Frankfurt where I don't have to stay overnight But then the whole district is completely forgettable and not everything is concentrated in a high-rise building with 3,000 people - maybe that's why.

In comparison, the normal Hartz 4 stalls are probably still luxury.
I also think it's terrible to live like that. Just because you get Hartz 4. Of course luxury is not possible. But something in the direction of human dignity.

I think you're still pretty safe at home as long as you don't stand at the open skylight with an antenna on your head Of course, a tree right next to a house could be a danger or something electrical could break, but even that's pretty unlikely...the good old lightning conductor takes care of that...but it's also normal to feel safer further down in the house when it's crashing so loudly and the lightning can be seen 5 meters away....

Well, I wouldn't be so sure about that either. I once heard of a case where a family suddenly got company from a lightning bolt in the middle of the table during a games evening

Lightning struck our house about 2 or 3 months ago, it really went off like a bomb.

Fortunately, only my router and power supply were damaged. Some of my neighbors' televisions and routers. Even the doorbell system was ruined. I've never experienced anything like it in my life. I always thought that every house had a lightning conductor to protect it from lightning.

It was similar for us a year ago. Lightning struck even though the sky was clear and the weather was fine. So it wasn't a thunderstorm. The bang was deafening and came out of nowhere. All the neighbors' routers were destroyed, their phones no longer worked and their doorbells and TVs were broken. I was lucky, everything was still working except for a brief phone outage.

Unfortunately, old houses don't have them. Our house is modernized, but it was built in 18XX and we don't have one either, luckily a few houses around us are much higher
