Grogon OP ,

I only use cat 7, it says cat 7 on the Orange cable

Grogon OP ,

Yeah dunno our mirror is gonna be across that part anyways (I hope it will cover that up) but well you can see I sanded to much mud or didn't put enough mud across the plasterboard so thats why there is a "dent".

To me I gotta say it doesn't look fine but looks fine enough for saving that much money lol.

Grogon OP ,

Man I heard so many things about tradies (not positive)....

The only person I have to hunt down is me if things look bad lol.

Grogon OP ,

If you had the choice to be a billionaire if you go back a few million years in earths age but have to wait it out til you reach the age of humans. Would you do it and wait?

Practically you already waited all that time but you weren't aware of it. Now imagine having to watch it.

Grogon OP ,

Dunno cause the tiles on the wall sometimes look pinkish and I am not sure if the floor is to greyish.

Thanks for the responses everyone. I just finished grouting the tiles an hour ago. This is what they look like now!

I think I will keep the tiles, it looks better now!

Grogon OP ,

I see what you mean, but the shower is behind the wall I took the picture of.

https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/d6086613-be6d-45d5-87de-fabf0a57f5a1.png

I angled them inside the shower but I also have a glas door just in case the water will flow out of it that I will install once I tested the shower lol.

Grogon OP ,

Thanks! :-) It's a lot of work, especially I'm no professional just trying what I can do lol. It's gonna take a while because I gotta finish the other rooms in the house too lol :D

Grogon OP ,

In order to renounce my citizenship I have to file atleast 5 years to IRS lol.
So even if I want to renounce my citizenship it's currently not possible to do so because I haven't filed in my life.

In order to "file" taxes I also require a social security number which I don't have. I honestly don't know where to find it lol.

Grogon OP ,

I pay taxes in Germany, I earn about 40.000 € a year. So I don't know.

I tried the IRS homepage but my english isn't good enough to file taxes. I don't understand much.

I am 35 years old and the lady that gave me my american passport tried to explain to me that I don't have to sign up for selective service anymore, I am too old lol. I didn't understand much of what she explained but she said: "it's fine don't sign up for it it's for young people" and sent me out of the embassy in munich.

I work since I am 17 years old in germany and got the information that I am american citizen when I was about 32 (first time in america) I tried to enter with my german passport. The people at the airport told me I am american and need a passport. I didn't know until then.

Grogon OP ,

My english isn't good enough for that.
I need someone to help me translate it.

Grogon OP ,

I do taxes in germany and their is a tax partnership or something what I see. But I get about 700 € back a year too from germany.

Grogon ,

Imagine losing to someone even though you are rich.

If I had all that money I'd just have more than Jeff.
Honestly this is a no brainer. I wouldnt want to be second richtet person. Either richest person or nothing at that point.

Id just give away all the money and retire. Better thsn only being second

Grogon OP ,

:( anxiety went up

Why does our civilization send signals and our location into space?

Individually doing atmospheric analysis for every planet in the galaxy is probably an impossible task for a civilisation confined to a single solar system. Listening for signals is something our civilisation already does. If we discover radio signals from a primitive civilisation in the next star system over there's a non-zero...

Grogon OP ,

Thaanks for helping! I was scared though lol. Almost thought my company constructed a huge pile of dirt and that I got a huge problem now.

Grogon OP ,

My english isn't that good I think I can't follow.

The beam in that room is holding a top floor and roof and should hold way more.
The wall that the beam is sitting on is about 35 cm thick.

Grogon OP ,

So I guess I should be fine?

I am having heart attack and panic right now.

My construction dude told me to apply 6x6 cm squared timber for installation (electricity) and spread the about 30 cm apart from each other around the house.
Once the electrician comes and installs everything and is finished I can install plasterboard onto the 6x6cm squared timber.

I am just not sure if I can hang anything on the plasterboard that is attached to 6x6cm timber. It would be alot more stable if I could get rid of the 6x6cm timber and attach plasterboard to plywood (like the inside walls).

At the end he said it's for electricity only and my safety so I don't break the vapor barrier later if I screw something into the plasterboard. So I have about 6 cm "air" before the "real" wall starts after the plywood.

Its basically from inside to outside:

Plasterboard -> 6x6 cm squared timber -> Plywood -> Studs ->
Vapor Barrier -> Insulation (240mm wool) ->.... in the end the totall wall is about 39cm thick.

Grogon OP ,

I have bigger screws in those that go into a bigger piece of wood behind the plywall.

I guess it's the studs then. So my 6x6 cm squared timber that I am installing vertically is going into studs behind the plywall

Grogon OP ,

Alright cool.

Yeah well I am just a nurse too (but in germany) or else I'd not have to ask here lol.

I sent a picture of the subconstruction to the kitchen company and they will tell me more.

Grogon OP ,

lol :-) I really almost sh*t my pants cause I thought the house was constructed good and suddenly everyone tells me to contact help and that I am lost.

Grogon OP ,

Why you say so?

Grogon OP ,

Those arent studs.

The Studs are in the wall behind the Plywood.

That is just 6x6 cm for electricity and safety space not to danage vapor barrier behind the real wall

Grogon OP ,

Super danke !!! : )

Grogon OP ,

Here is a picture of the wall how it looked when the house got delivered

Grogon OP ,

Ja voll cool!

Ich habe alle Wände abfotografiert und Abmessungen der Lattungen (30cm Abstände) gemerkt.
Aber das es sowas gibt ist ja echt wahnsinn. Danke!

Grogon OP ,

Er meint damit also, dass es nichts bringt, weitere Lattungen anzubringen?

Mein Plan ist aktuell:

Küchenanbieter anschreiben und Monteur der Küche ob die Lattungen so in Ordnung sind.
Die angebrachte Lattung markieren, sodass der Monteur später dann die Hängeschränke an den Rigips & Lattung schrauben kann und nicht ins "leere" trifft.
