Anyone else notice the loud "boom" that happened around 10:05 this morning?
It was weird, as if it was subsonic but not quite.
The disturbing part was that the windows opposite to where I work were shook a lot.
Is anyone up for a bit of hiking or mountain biking? Right, instead of beating about the bush, I’ll just come straight out with it: my motivation for this is to find a girlfriend. I’m slowly starting to feel the urge for a relationship too. Maybe it’s a bit late at 24, but not too late^^. Yes, I’m still at uni, and yes, there are loads of opportunities to meet new people there, but it’s soooo time-consuming. Especially for me, as I don’t live in Bern. I’ve absolutely no interest in dating apps because it all seems so artificial, and I’m just looking for that genuine connection. At least, that’s how I, as a layman, imagine a relationship to be, lol. If you’re interested, just drop me a line.
anyways, I’m starting to feel a bit embarrassed by my own rambling, and yes, there are a few red flags in there too, but you know what I’m getting at.
U ja ig cha o bärndütsch :)
Hello everyone!
I am writing this post because I want to bring up this story.
I am a researcher in the UniBern. A couple months ago everyone with a UniBern mail got a mail, this guy, Luca Brügger, he committed suicide.
The mail was simple, he said that it was too late already(anyway we called the police) and had this website attached.
Of course with all the precautions I opened the link, it was a very long suicide letter talking about how football was his life, he was not happy, many delusions, he had a(not really) revolutionary football theory and many things, it was so long that I didn't had that much time to read it all, I'll be honest.
The little detail: his last wish. He didn't want a funeral, but a minute of silence for people suffering like him. The request was for the University's dean. He said that he would have released (through a trusted contact oc) his full football theory if so after the world football cup's finals.
We got no news from the university for the minute of silence, no football theory apparently released, as per now the website is not available, even if I still have a pdf version I downloaded to let chatgpt analyze it, also In case you want it dm me. The suicide not page disappeared from his Instagram page, in those months I just found one or two Facebook posts about him and they were almost uninformative and probably also got deleted.
I didn't know him, but I feel deeply sorry for him, at the point that I wish to express my condolences to the family, a young man did something so serious, I won't even judge the reasons, and it made no sound like a tree falling alone in the sand.
I am the kind of person that normally accepts death as a part of life, I also lost some important people and sometimes I think about them but smile at the good memories.
But this guy, I feel incredibly sorry. It's not a lot about the suicide itself, I mean, yes I'm sorry to hear that part too, but as much I can be for every people that does it or gets killed or does in general. If you told me that a person killed themselves I would just take it and not be so pressed.
The thing is that nobody cares, not the dean, most of my colleagues deleted the mail thinking as spam( the object was straight up suicide note anyway) and even months after they don't even know about him, I haven't seen a note, a poster, any news, nothing.
Are we really that self centered as mankind that a 24yo student killing himself makes no sound?
Fürne Usflug muesi mit mim Auto öpper uflade wo ir Stadt wohnt, richtig Köniz. I ha niso luscht quer dür d Stadt ds fahre, was wär bi dere Route dr gäbigst Ort zum öpper uflade? Di Person chönnt mitm ÖV sech a dä Ort bewegä.
For context I live in Kanton Bern
I've been currently living in my appartment for around 6 years now however last year roughly around december we got the notification that they're going to demolish our appartment complex due to them being "too old". Mine will get demolished this December and the last buidling in the complex around next year.
The problem is now I've been trying desperately since January to find an appartment but I've been jobless for almost 2 years now and currently in Sozialamt. Due to the low pay I also have Betreibungen since I can't even pay my taxes.
Due to these things it's been impossible for me to find an appartment. I even went to find some way above the "sozialamt budget" because that one is just straight up inlogical and outdated.
The only Support I really got was a reference letter from the Vermieter and... some useless paper from the Sozialamt that just says how much they will pay. I always provided these two during the applications but so far no luck.
Other than that there was 0 real support or useful advice regarding the situation.
Anyway for the main question: What exactly happens once the deadline hits? Should I notify the vermieter company already now about my situation?
I tried asking the sozialamt if they have possible Appartments for people in my situation but the answer was a very bloated "no"
Hi everyone,

We've recently got an EV but we cannot charge at home. We currently use the Plugsurf subscription (~12 chf per month) to fast charge at plenitude on the road at Seftigenstrasse for 0.54 CHF/kWh. Since we will charge regularly, I wonder whether there is any cheaper deal (the amount of charging networks and cards is crazy). It should be fast charge.
Thanks!
Hello! I really like this city, I visited it last winter. I'm a fan of autumn, so I'd like to know more about fall in Bern: how is fall in Bern? Are there events in the city about it? Are streets and shops decorated?
I'm also trying to improve my English, please let me know if I make mistakes in my texts. Thank you in advance! Have a nice day!
Paris hat eins, wieso Bern nicht auch? Ist es schlauer wenn sich jeder Haushalt ein eigenes Gerät anschafft?
Hello, I'm a French journalist for ENTR, the youth media from France 24 and Deutsche Welle.
For a social media video report, I'm looking for skilled swimmers who plan to swim in the Aar in Bern or in the Rhine in Bâle on Friday afternoon (I saw that it will be hot there), who know the place very well, who have all the equipment, who can give advices to newbies and even better who have surprising stories to tell.
Let me know if some of you are interested and please share my request if you know people that could be interested.
The goal of the video is to show that In Switzerland, the relationship with urban rivers is not the same at all as in France and that we should maybe get inspired from you!
I will travel from Paris to Switzerland to make the report so interested people should be okay to be filmed and should speak French or English fluently (I don't speak German unfortunately)
Looking forward to reading you!

Hatte einen Kieferbruch, müsste nun für ne Nachkontrolle nach bern. Da ich hoffentlich gegen mittag durch sein sollte (🤞🏻), sowieso da bin, und mit dem chirurgen abklären kann was ich momentan essen darf/meiden sollte, suche ich ein plätzchen mit mahlzeiten ohne biss lol
Ich vermute stark dass es weiterhin Flüssigdiät gibt, oder nur sehr weiche sachen in kleinen mengen. Also bisschen sonderliche frage, aber vielleicht weiss ja trotzdem jemand tips 🙏🏻
