Thank you, that was a really good explanation!

Does the fine have to be paid from profits made in California? If not I don't see why this is relevant, other than semantics.

And then you also have different meanings depending on pronunciation, here some examples:

  • umfahren: to drive around something or to run over something

  • Montage: the act of assembling or the plural of Monday

  • übersetzen: to ferry across a river or to translate into another language

  • umschreiben: to rewrite or to paraphrase

  • durchschauen: to look through something or to understand

  • unterstellen: to place something underneath or to imply or accuse someone of something

  • unterhalten: to hold something underneath or to support or to converse with someone or to entertain

  • wiederholen: to fetch something back or to repeat something

As a native German speaker, I really dislike the formality levels and hope someday everyone uses the informal level. In a big company it's really annoying to start with the formal level and then awkwardly switching to informal level when contacting someone for the first time.

Yeah, BG4 is dead on arrival for me, but on the other hand I am glad Larian continues to exist and does not have to bow to some corporate entity. Instead of BG4, I am looking forward to their next project then. And even if they would do BG4, it's hard to top BG3, so I can understand moving on to a new project without fan expectations other than the high regard for Larian.

I use Mull for Android and find it a bit more performant than vanilla Firefox.

I never installed Linux myself, only used it for a bit, so what do you have to do to not be a complete noob? This is only a half serious question, but what do you think you have to do, to be a proficient Linux user? This sounds a bit like when I got my master's degree and did not have the feeling that I know anything or have learned valuable skills, but to someone with only a high school diploma I would look rather proficient.

Sorry, I didn't make that clear, I meant in Germany, as the commenter talked about the German translation of turkey.

I am not an expert either, but maybe by something like this? Maybe we see two images of the same galaxy but nothing obstructing our view to explain the gravitational lensing, so maybe it's topological defects?

So what is the actual transistor size then? And why use an SI unit then anyway? Why not use femto-bananas then when it does not reflect the real size?

I don't follow American politics very closely, who is this RFK guy and between Biden and Trump, how bad is he?

I have no opinion on this, but maybe it just takes more time. I don't hear anyone calling Chinas capital 'Peking' anymore, only Bejing, but that didn't happen instantly either.
