Yeah. I am not a native speaker of either language though, is “shitting sb.” something one might say?

Anyway, the etymology, as I understand it, is:

• Herr Gott/Herrgott: “Lord”, or literally “Mr God”, typical way German-speaking Christians address God
• bescheißen: screw, bullshit
• -erie: French feminine noun ending, sometimes used as the English “-er”

So yeah, you could translate it as “thing to bullshit the Lord”, or “Godbullshitter”.

You don’t need to know much German to tell that Herrgottb’scheisserie does not quite translate to “Fool the Lord”.

Probably more. Just search for ‘x’ in a name register and filter the normal ones like Alex.

Yes. Technically, a similar vote could repeal the law just as easily but there is a history of governments not giving their power away easily; implementing it also sets a precedent and creates technical enforcement options for other governments willing to go through with something similar in the future, or for hackers to exploit because gov-rooted devices will remain in operation for years after the potential repeal.

Yes, that’s the only country besides Belarus (which uses Cyrillic) in a 187-km radius from Minsk. (The road will not be straight of course so the actual area where this sign would work will be smaller.)

Unless the sign is fake, of course. IDK about Lithuania but Arial is not a common road signage font. Also, why English? Lithuanians spell it Kyjivas and Minskas.

Edit: now that you mentioned Vilnius on Google Maps, I looked it up and skimmed for a road that might correspond to the direction and infrastructure. Opened Street View and guess what? I found it, first try. It’s real.

That being said, the actual distance to Kyiv is now over 1000 km for most people as they won’t be able to cross the Belarus / Ukraine border.

Skillsh!

Sure but if we succeed at mitigating cimate change effects to a reasonable degree, civilization will survive for centuries, during which a reactor that uses itmight become available. It’s a minor problem blown out of proportion, as opposed to CO₂ emissions, which are the opposite.

When I say “Skillsh”, you say “Air”!

Don’t be that pessimistic, most users had to install Reddit, Twitter and TikTok apps. In the 2010s, grassroots chain emails and Facebook posts with guides to setting up WhatsApp went viral among boomers in my country, touting it as “free SMS”. (Facebook camnot legally describe it as “free SMS” but they didn’t bother correcting anyone of course.) The fediverse experience is already quite OK if you have a dedicated client but the problem is that not everyone does, which is why we need browser support; people are tired of “wOrKs bEtTeR iN ThE aPp” even if it’s true this time. A dedicated URL scheme will automatically associate Fediverse links with any appropriate installed web/local apps. There are still other issues such as hit-and-miss cross-fedi-platform compatibility, no API for retrieving the list of federated instances and lack of appropriate error messages if the source and/or destination instance block each other.

They do, and I like how seamlessly mailto: links on websites work with web and local apps: your browser will give you a choice and either will work because email servers network with one another (obviously). Perhaps we could do this with linking to content across the Fediverse, with a custom URL scheme such as apub:@Blaze@reddthat.com. I explore this in my other comment at apub:post/20744080/11206632@reddthat.com.
