ComedyAmt - Germans&Expats Complain Together
ComedyAmt - Germans&Expats Complain Together
**Let's complain about everything!** **You are new in town? Complain!** **Lived here forever and disagree with the change? COMPLAIN!** **Everyone is annoyed by something or someone all the time anyway - let some steam out! COMPLAIN!** Expats have joked about German bureaucracy, sandals with socks and “no sense of humor.” Germans have politely nodded, but now it’s payback time! Revenge for balance! **🧾 WHAT IS THIS?** **ComedyAmt** is a live stand-up comedy show where Berliners finally get to complain properly. ***We made a system for it:*** •You fill out a short complaint form when you arrive. • Comedians read it on stage And voilà – your private annoyance becomes public entertainment! **🌍 WHAT YOU CAN COMPLAIN ABOUT** Not just Germans or expats – EVERYONE! You can submit complaints about: * Berlin habits * cultural misunderstandings * shared social confusion * and everyday things that make no sense anymore If it mildly annoys you in real life, it belongs here. **Passive aggression welcome!** **⚖️ THE RULE** Everyone gets complained about. Everyone gets laughed at. No one is special. That’s the point. And if you think someone is talking about you, they probably are. But don’t worry, someone is also talking about them. ❗️**DISCLAIMER** **This is not hate speech or political debate, we’re here to leave as friends and/or lovers, who knows.** 📍 GOOD TO KNOW * Show is in English * Audience participation is optional * Submissions are anonymous * Content comes from real audience complaints **DOORS 8PM** **SHOW 9PM** **FEES?** **This is a pay what you want show** — we don’t change the entry fee so you can contribute according to your level of enjoyment (Suggested levels of enjoyment vary between **12 EUR** for students and unemployed and **15EUR** for everyone else unless your level of enjoyment is over the top! Then who are we to stop you. Jokes aside — **it is a show functioning solely thanks to the financial support of the audience.**

Monthly Book Club Meeting - May
Monthly Book Club Meeting - May
Dear Book Enthusiasts, For our May gathering, we’ll be reading ***Broken April*** by the Albanian writer **Ismail Kadare**. First published in 1978, this powerful novel is set in the remote highlands of northern Albania, where life is governed by the ancient Kanun — a strict code of customary law that regulates honor, hospitality, and blood feuds. The story follows a young man who has just committed a killing required by the code and now lives through the brief, suspended days before vengeance inevitably returns. Through this stark and poetic narrative, Kadare explores fate, tradition, violence, and the quiet tragedy of lives bound by inherited laws. 📅 Date & Time: 10.05.2026 at 15:00 📍 Location: Audrey coffee, Holzendorffstraße 18, 14057 Berlin 💬 Fee: As always, a 3 € contribution after the meeting helps cover organization costs I’m very much looking forward to discussing this haunting and thought-provoking novel with you — and to sharing another thoughtful afternoon together. Warmly, Sofya

You can join whatever court you like and move between courts during the event. We self-organize, so once you finish a game, you can start a rematch, mix with another court, or take a break as you see fit. Upon arrival, join the warmup happening on one of the courts.

LLM Showdown: ChatGPT vs Claude vs Gemini vs Local Models
LLM Showdown: ChatGPT vs Claude vs Gemini vs Local Models
Join us for a practical, beginner-friendly guide to choosing the right large language model. We’ll compare major models like ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Llama, talk about when to use hosted APIs versus local models, and break down the tradeoffs around cost, speed, quality, privacy, context windows, coding ability, and reliability. You’ll leave with a clearer mental model for picking an LLM based on your actual use case instead of hype, benchmarks, or brand names. No deep AI background required. LOGISTICS AND PARKING: The talk starts at 7:00 PM. The first half hour is reserved for everyone to get set up and mingle. Free pizza and drinks! The cheapest parking option is to find street parking, which will only cost you a few bucks. Otherwise, park in the nearby veteran's museum lot for $8. It's highly recommended you avoid the nearby $15 garage parking.

CBusData - Practical AI for Power BI Developers
CBusData - Practical AI for Power BI Developers
Practical AI for Power BI Developers A year ago, “agentic AI” was mostly hype for Power BI teams. Today, it deserves your undivided attention. For Power BI pros, there is now a real opportunity to reduce repetitive development work, accelerate delivery, and help developers do more, but only when strong DataOps practices are in place to make AI workflows effective. This session is a no-nonsense introduction to effective AI patterns for Power BI and Fabric development. Along the way, we will make sense of the growing pile of terminology, including skills, plugins, hooks, and MCP. You will see examples of how modern AI tooling can help with development tasks across Power BI and Fabric, along with the prerequisites, guardrails, and DataOps principles needed to use it responsibly. Whether you're burned out on AI hype or already using Copilot CLI daily, this session will show you the foundations that are finally making AI-assisted development genuinely useful.

We meet to learn and practice American Sign Language and to grow our familiarity with Deaf culture. Facilitated by hearing folks (with a connection to a professional interpreter) using Deaf-created content. People of all ASL skill levels are welcome! As we learn, we hope to connect more with the Deaf community in Central Ohio. Join us as you're able! Come regularly or just once - whatever you're looking for! Each meetup will explore different topics related to ASL/Deaf culture, and will feature time to practice conversation with one another. Just bring yourself and a willingness to learn!
