So you're not for reining in megacorps, just the ones you don't see as a personal benefit.

A good landing is one you walk away from.

Is prostitution illegal in NY? Why did he not just say "I wanted to fuck a pornstar so I did"?

As is a cock.

gar nicht*

not related to garnish.

Our accent is so thick that I can talk to my buddy and nobody around us can follow the conversation if they don't speak it. It's kinda neat lol

You would do well in Finland.

I'm stealing this.

It's happening because people allow it to happen. I recently unsubbed from a channel because they were beginning to use community posts to promote sponsors. Like a giant fucking post with complete BS like "I always wanted to do X video and now thanks to RAID SHADOW LEGENDS include huge pic it is now reality. Thank you RAID SHADOW LEGENDS and with code BullshitPromoFromYT you get 10% off the newest hat or whatever shit they sell in that game". Some people complained and asked the creator not to do this, but they were quickly flooded by the hordes of "they have to make money somehow"-drones. Despicable.

Similar to this?

There are languages that are considered isolates, meaning they are spoken and written languages that share no connection to any other known language. Basque is an example for that, spoken in the Northern parts of Spain, but does not share any similarities to Spanish, Portuguese, English or French. Common theory is that it just developed in that region and was not influenced by outside factors at all which is linguistically weird since trading with other regions was common. There are also no known languages that descended from Basque, thus it's not a proto-language either.

"Hippopotamus" is another one. It derives from the Greek words hippos (horse) and potamos (river) and this concept of river horse is present in many different languages:

• German: Flusspferd (lit. river horse)
• Dutch: Rivierpaard (lit. river horse)
• Finnish: Virtahepo (lit. stream horse)
• Danish: Flodhest (lit. flood horse)
• Chinese: 河马 (lit. river horse)
• Arabic: فرس النهر (lit. river horse)
• French, Spanish, Italian and Portuguese use variations of hippopotamus.

Tiny variations exist as well:

• Hungarian: Víziló (lit. water horse)
• Afrikaans: Seekoei (lit. sea cow)

I'm German, born and raised, but in Saarland. One time when visiting a friend in Berlin, I was at a bar and got a compliment on how good my German is even tho I'm obviously a foreigner.

I live 30km from the French border, I had 10 years worth of French classes at school. I always hated it, but I did an extra-curriculum to acquire a diploma because a classmate and friend of mine didn't want to do it alone. My French is in a weird spot: I cannot form a proper sentence, but I understand listening exercises and written text well. I recently started to go through some French lessons on Duolingo and I'm already struggling with the sentences it expects me to form in unit 8...

"We do AI now". Shareholders creaming themselves, stocks going to the moon. New yacht for PichAI.

The light from other stars travelled much farther until you blocked it with your retinas. Sun needs to grow some thicker skin.

Just don't tickle it with a screwdriver.

Captcha was implemented to stop bots and now they are so fucked up that bots are better at solving captchas than humans.

For example the captcha on this site (it's a google search proxy). It took me 4 tries and last time I checked, I was human. To be fair, they call it an intelligence check, so maybe that was the problem.

Mine doesn't:

less time suffering is equal to winning in my book
