Try a reverse look up. The lower right address has a .ru extension.

Yes, but the language isn't Cyrillic and the truck looks as if it drives on the left. The sign that indicates a zone for pedestrians is used in Europe. My guess: somewhere in the UK, or maybe Ireland.

Body language means nothing. It's taking it wide for the tight turn.

Volvo truck in cz or vicinity. Unclear how wide their range of operation is.

True, I just referred ( or should have) to the nationality of the taker of the pic.

Here is a joke from me, back when I was younger I learned some German in school, the basics. I knew that schwarz is black in German and "schwarze" means black as for a person, right @mfb ?
And "negger" translates from German as negro.

"Schwarze" is the plural, black people. "Neger" would be "negro", with two "g" it's not a German word.

In a compound word the first one should somehow make the second one more specific (e.g. "Segelboot", sail boat, is a specific type of boat). Combining "Schwarze" and "Neger" wouldn't make sense, but if we ignore that it should probably be "Schwarzenneger" to combine the two.

Many German last names end in "er", referring to a job or less commonly a place. English has the same "er" e.g. for mill -> Miller or New York -> New Yorker.

Reminds me of the time a bunch of plumbing equipment thieves stole all of the toilettes out of a police station. The cops were trying to find clues as to who did it but they didn't have a thing to go on.

Or that time someone stole a load of dogs from a breeder. Police were looking for the culprits, but didn't have any leads.

And we don't know if it's been photoshopped or changed in other ways.

* As I watch this generation try and rewrite our history, one thing I'm sure of ... it will be misspelled and have no punctuation.

* Do you ever get up in the morning, look in the mirror and think, "That can't be accurate."

* I'm on two diets. I wasn't getting enough food on one.

* Apparently RSVPing to a wedding invitation, "Maybe next time," isn't the correct response.

* Felt uncomfortable driving into the cemetery. The GPS blurted out, "You have reached your final destination."

* My mind is like an internet browser. At least 19 open tabs, 3 of them are frozen and I have no clue where the music is coming from.

Reddit isn't a good place for asking programming questions, at least I think so. If the question is at the basic level, then it is best to ask in a forum like PF where one can get more personalized help. If it is regarding some library that doesn't work, then maybe Stack Overflow is a better place. The first thing to do before asking on SO is to ask Google, and if nothing turns up, then ask yourself if the question will be useful to future visitors. If the answer to that is no, then there are fairly high chances that SO will close the question with downvotes.
