As a resident spelling n*zi, I must inform you that while the German “Sieg” does resemble the English 'zeeg' (or rather 'zeek' due to the unvoiced 'h' in “heil”), German “zeig” sounds like: en.m.wiktionary.org/wiki/zeig#Ge... (ie ~'tzike' [t͡saɪ̯k] or ~'tzigue' [t͡saɪ̯ɡ], again depending on next sound)

Spoken or written? I'd assume spoken Portuguese could be harder to figure out (for a Spanish-speaker) than vice versa—the European variant at least, or maybe both?

It's great that Bluesky offers custom algo feeds. For instance, this one looks interesting. It promises to prioritize posts from rare posters, but not sure how it works in detail:

Yes. Recently, I noticed X doesn't even notify me about all of them. Only when I blocked the rest I realized my follower count was actually down after the most recent run to Bsky. Now I don't bother to block&report anymore because it's just too much work...

Does Ribera oppose nuclear as a matter of principle? How is nuclear not aligned with EU climate targets? Odd. I mean, if Czechs (or anyone else for that matter) think they can build and make it work despite the cost risk...why not?

Wow. Dead giveaway, no heads up needed. I mean, a lot of casual old jokes and insults, from harmless punch-ups to pretty vile tropes, still pass for humor among European nations, but try looking for an adult who finds that kind of Germans≈Nazis shit as anything but retarded, let alone funny.

I can't recall whether this requires toggling some setting first, but quickly pressing the right-side (lock) button 5 times in a row puts you in the same mode. More presses, but I find this one easy to remember and quite quick too.
