That's just because German groups a bunch of words together and calls that a new word. It's basically cheating.

It’s always weird seeing people being surprised by that fact. English has compound words too, just like German. You just put a space in between. Donaudampfschifffahrtgesellschaft is Danube steam boat driving society, works perfectly. Wouldn’t work in a lot of non-Germanic languages like Italian, though.

Anyone else have their browsers grind to a halt when loading this or nearly any other newspage? How do you kill the adware that's slowing everything down?

The best way would be to build a Pi-Hole. That blocks out any unwanted traffic in your entire home network before it even gets loaded.

The hell? I've never rented a place where I wasn't able to control the heat/air. Is that common in the UK? Even in large apartment complexes in Chicago where everything was included we had our own thermostats in the units.

In many European rental apartments there are little devices on each radiator that sense if the radiator is on or not. 50% of the heating cost is determined by the apartment size and 50% by the measurements. If you heat a lot, you pay more. The landlords controlling the heating would be nightmarish.

I have a tiny female dog who tries to hump other tiny female dogs in puppy school.

It's the same reversal as with the "people who walk fast enough don't get dementia". People can do these things because they're more healthy, not the other way around.

There’s no euthanasia clinics in Germany. I guess what they mean is palliative care hospices, but assisted suicide is not allowed.

wtf apparently its a boar???

lol yup it's just a boar, which are extremely common in that area. Everybody, including more than a hundred police officers and several zoo veterinarians were fooled by the bad quality video giving the boar a slightly brighter fur color than a properly exposed daylight video would have. But even in that video if you look more closely it actually just looks like a boar lol.

Hi there.

Yup, every boar that’s shot in Bavaria has to get evaluated for radioactive contamination and more than half of them don’t get approved for consumption. Also you shouldn’t get into mushroom foraging here.
