I come from South Africa, I've driven at least 200,000km in my life, the first time I put Fuel in a car was at the age of 30 after temporarily moving to Europe.

'Petrol Attendants' often also wash your windscreen while you fuel up

Not mine, but two collages of mine.

Over lunch we were discussing what we cook for dinner most nights etc.

The two of them live together and said that they don't cook they have a food delivery service that delivers nutritious hot home cooked meals to their door every night at 7pm

They complained that on Wednesdays the food isn't as good as other days.

In 2025 the onion needs to go to these extremes else it will just look like regular news

I was quite new to Motocross, and made the mistake of buying one of the most powerful bike I could find.

The first 6 months I scared to ride 😅 but got used to it and ended up loving it.

I'm sure someone more experienced would have noticed, but I was a absolute noob

English Translation:

A tent at the station
National-Railway (NS) is setting up ten tents on the upper floor of Utrecht Central Station. Each tent has a made-up bed, and NS will provide everything you need. This includes breakfast, drinks, earplugs, pleasant music and even a bicycle for the daily trip to the city centre for the rest of the UIT programme. So the students hardly need to bring anything themselves, except a charger and toothbrush.

A pleasant start to every morning At a real Glamping site, you wake up feeling refreshed, and Glamping Utrecht Centraal is no exception. Every morning, there is a pleasant breakfast where the glamping guests can meet each other. After that, the students can easily and punctually continue on to all the activities of the UIT week in the city. With a place to sleep at the station, train delays are no longer a valid excuse for being late.

Sign up via Instagram This Glamping is intended for first-year students who come from far away and will be studying in Utrecht from September onwards. NS is looking for adventurous guests with a good story and a fully charged power bank. You can sign up from today by sending a motivation letter (e.g. via video) to the NS Instagram account. This is possible until 4 August 2025.

When you want to share a image you found on PieFed, don't download and share the image, just share the PieFed link.
This way the people or person you're sharing it with might discover PieFed without you pushing it.

It also works great like this https://www.reddit.com/r/AskTheWorld/comments/1md2npo/what_is_the_best_power_outlet_and_why
(does not work with old.reddit )

This will also improve SEO, and PieFed etc. might start popping up on search engine results more, and people will start to see and trust the Fediverse more.

Why is the sub name the way that it is? This will confuse potential new members (piefed.social)
 

I wanted to post to this sub but couldn't find it because the name is fucked.

I get it's a shitpoty sub, but can we at least keep the name relevant.
