I like new words, like Rucksackriemenquerverbindungsträger (the horizontal connection between the straps of your backpack that makes the backpack magically less heavy when closed)

Thats not entirely true. wl-copy exists and I use it, but it's not fully there yet. Things like slackadays/clipboard are still fucking around with weird Wayland issues.

I'd like better clipboard support, but alias c=wl-copy is good enough most of the time for me. And it works in neovim as well.

Je hässlicher / simpler die Website, desto seriöser die person oder Organisation. Stimmt 100% immer.

IMAP and SMTP, the protocols mainly used for emails besides whatever weird shit Microsoft is doing, nowadays all have variants going through a TLS encrypted session like HTTPS.

That doesn't change the fact that email is not up to the task of modern secure communication (TLS is not end to end encryption for example, and smime and pgp are super user unfriendly and have their own weirdnesses), but makes it better at least.

I think it's テレビ(terebi) but that's probably what you meant.

I'm not really sure. It feels stricter, or maybe more precise because there are more grammatical rules like the four cases for Nomen and such.

While loanwords are probably a thing in any language, there are definitely languages that seem to be a bit stricter with grammar, I think? I'd say German is an example.

Japanese is crazy with loanwords though. They steal them and if that's not enough they put the japanizing bean on it, so air conditioning becomes エアコン (romanization of that word again is eakon)

Marktcheck vom SWR hat schon öfters gezeigt, dass dir Eigenmarken aller supermärkte und Discounter egal wo auf den cent genau gleich viel kosten. Ob das auch zu so speziellen Eigenprodukten sich erweitert weiß ich aber nicht.

What kind of subway would that be? Larger than I thought at first and with more than one or two train cars.

Exactly. Community bindings do exist and are used over the official bindings already, and I think the source code obfuscation is just an annoyance by now.
