          For whatever reason (probably a mischievous one), “Handy” became the colloquial term for smartphone in Germany.

          Hell no. I just extended and send him the demands to his smartphone in a perfectly secure way (unencrypted *.ical file).

          We will return here eta as said. Hopefully you guys will comply… For our combined future!

          They’re legal here, but only by having the toy removed.

          Candies like them were made illegal here in the states decades ago because there was concern (or it actually did happen) that a kid would attempt to eat the candy with the toy still inside and choke.

          It’s why the Wonder Balls stopped being sold here as well, and I loved those as a kid in the 90s. They were one of my favorite things to get when I went out shopping with my mom.

    I’ve been wanting to learn German for years now, specifically because “ich_iel” looked really fun.

    Guess now is as good of a time as any!

      I read somewhere on Lemmy that ich_iel deliberately uses wrong words four the lulz. So be careful or you’ll be learning bad grammar. Youse diggitty?

        Well well well,

        Brunnen Brunnen Brunnen,

        So ich_iel is making jokes on translation english. Instead of translating the meaning they look for funny and/or literally translations.

        Instead of translating “well, well, well” with sth that fits like (Gut gut gut) they use the water well translation.

      ich_iel is peak German humor and internet culture. It’s a shame that they live on forbidden lands now. Although there’s hope, as the great migration has already begun

    Germany itself is federated. Coincidence?

    I wonder why the Russians aren’t here. They sure like being federated too, innit?

        In Russia’s case, I’m pretty sure it’s a bunch of republics within the country that technically govern each other but aren’t sovereign, I can see where that came from since the USSR was literally just a bunch of self governing republics uniting under the common goal of socialism (it’s in the name). Hence why Russia calls itself today the Russian Federation.

        As for Germany, well… Federated Republic of Germany. I’d assume its regions are very similarly self governing, they just don’t call themselves republics here.

        There’s the Swiss Confederation. Not sure what the “con-” prefix means.

          For Germany, the Federated part came from the three Allied zones that came together to form West Germany. Each zone would check and govern each other but weren’t sovereign. Then East Germany was added to form the Germany we know today.

          With Switzerland, Confederation means each part of the country came together voluntarily. Membership in a confederation is voluntary while not necessarily so in a federation.

          To explain it easier for an American, the thirteen colonies came together in a confederation during the revolutionary war, united under specific circumstances but still separate. Once the constitution passed and the USA was officially formed the states switched from a Confederation to a Federation. This is also why the Confederacy is the Confederacy, the states voluntarily banded together to revolt against the Union.
