is that one of the private messaging apps? I think Ive seen people advising not to use it but havent bothered to check why x3

Open means "uben" in german so

Free Libre Open Source Software is FLUSS in german and that roughly translates to "fucking" and I think that's beautiful.

Wrong on... pretty much all accounts

[–] [email protected] 13 points 6 days ago* (last edited 6 days ago)

That is incredibly wrong

  1. "Uben" doesn't exist.
  2. Open means "offen"
  3. "Fluss" would be river or flow or flux

Open in German is "offen," and Fluss means "river" (or "flux"), so ... no.

yeah i know i was joking

maybe it wasn't a good joke ^^

It wasn't funny, but fun for Germans, cause it gave them a chance to correct you and explain their language.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Maybe it was by German standards

The book of German humor is incredibly thin.

No it is not, it as an extremely long book with thousands of pages. It just isn’t funny.
