Couldn’t you make it so that cheats are working but just disqualify you from leaderboards?

I know that „there must be a German word for that“ is became a meme, with lot of fake words being thrown around, but I’m not even joking: There’s a German word for that lol ✨Mittelspurschleicher✨

That’s weird. Works for me both through the embedded browser in Voyager and Safari directly (with adblocker enabled)

Mama: Wir haben feuchte Michmichs zu Hause.

Nah, I can’t think of any reason tbh. Just somehow unexpected I guess because I usually only hear it in the name of the german state Mecklenburg-Vorpommern.

I mean, I know that many if not most places in the US are named after European ones, but somehow Mecklenburg caught me really off guard just now

That reminds me of a video by Angela Collier about that and similar phenomena https://youtu.be/wBBnfu8N_J0

I discovered her channel a few months ago and binged almost all of it. She’s great!

Why not both? But is it a house-hat or hat-house?

Wenn die Polizei vorbei fährt, ja! (ja)
\ dann halt ich erst mal an, ja! (ja)

I read an interesting article on that a while ago, unfortunately I can’t to find it anymore rn. If I remember correctly, it stated cats don’t think of humans as kittens (or generally as cats) but are able to recognize us as a different species. At the same time, they apparently still consider us part of their colony and in the wild cats care for their offspring together, so one part goes hunting while the others look after the kittens. Same happens when cats bring us „gifts“. (Might be misremembering stuff and can’t check how trustworthy the article was, so take it with a big grain of salt, I’d be happy to get educated by someone more knowledgeable)

That’s how umlauts historically evolved, but nowadays I wouldn‘t say ü short for ue, but its own letter (even though you still can write it as ue if you don’t have it available on your keyboard or whatever)

Actual assignment I handed in at University:

Thank you!

I never heard that word I think (not a native speaker) and DDG only brings up some band, which I don’t think you mean here. What are the rubes?

Thank you!

That sounds interesting, do you have a source for that where I can read more by any chance?

I‘m not disagreeing with what you’re trying to convey but still: Mussolini very likely never said/wrote that, seems to have been misattributed. IF he did, the Italian word corporazioni, while technically translating to corporations, doesn’t refer to private companies, which in Italian are normally called società.

More info:

• Mussolini on the Corporate State
• Wikiquote - Benito Mussolini

I guess using renewables for the energy needs of metal production would work too

My guess would be that the word „lying“ implies the intent to claim something untrue, which is hard to prove (not saying this isn’t the case here), opposed to „falsely claiming“ which includes situations where you actually believe what you’re saying even though it’s objectively false.
