Not so fun fact about Warsaw:

When you walk around town you can track outlines of Jewish Ghetto from WW II thanks to marks like this one running through the city:

That's rather depressing...

Maybe this list of funny Wifi network names I've seen around my city will lighten the mood a bit:

Nighthawk

Not Your Wifi

Eyjafjallajokull (yes, I can spell that without looking it up, thanks to its highly publicized eruption a few years ago)

Are Belong To Us

LG Smart Refrigerator

[Zathoth]

Maybe the left of my laptop will brighten up the mood.

Too many books.

Well, I'm watching it. Season 4 Episode 10, "Hush." I'll admit, hearing the story behind this one (Whedon had been criticized one too many times for relying on clever dialogue, so he decided to prove his critics wrong by writing an episode with almost no dialogue) is one thing that enticed me into watching the show. 

And I must say, it's pretty fantastic so far. 

EDIT: Oh my gosh, Giles does the most hilariously horrifying slide shows ever.

But really, I have to ask. Has anyone here watched Miraculous Ladybug?

Nitpick: It's Eyjafjallajökull. Ö and O are completely different letters, even if they look almost the same.

Of course you have a huge horror book there. It's practically your bloodright.

Edit: Get it?

Question. For reviewing purposes, would "comic" books count?

I suppose that depends on what everyone else's opinions are. Personally, I'm thinking no, but you can still feel free to publish a review of the comic book(s) of your choice separately.

[Kaymyth she/her]

I have some Pokemons.

They are pretty Pokemons.

Mine.

@Eki unfortunately my American keyboard does not have the umlauted characters. But in all honesty even if it did I would not have thought to use it in this instance because I didn't recall seeing the umlauted spelling in the news reports.

Yaaay! I'm back on the site! Did anyone post anything funny on my (five-day) hiatus?

Yeah, I think most news reports in English made the same simplification.

You might have a ¨ key though, that can be used to create an ö.

It's also common to exchange an ö for oe, but I'm not sure if that works for Icelandic.

I know a keyboard shortcut for Macs to umlaut letters, but I have a PC and have usually resorted to copypasta when I've needed them for assignments in my German classes.

It's Opt+U on Macs, maybe Alt+U on PC?

Good idea, but it doesn't seem to be working.

[Master Elodin]

Try Num Lock + Alt + 0246.

No dice there either, at least not in the forum's reply box.

[Young Bard he/him]

I've got a button in the bottom corner of my taskbar that allowed me to swap between the English and German keyboard. I think I had to go into Control Panel ---> Languages or something like that to set it up?

[Delightful]

@Quiver I'm personally totally cool with a comic review. 

@Kaymyth go?

[Haelbarde he/him]

With the fancy symbols, if you weren't already using it, you can use the Character Map program (a built in thing in Windows) to look at all the different symbols, and copy them across.

Yeah, that's Black Adam for sure. Looks like the New 52 version; the hood is a fairly recent addition to the look.

The eyes... I dunno. Trinity War, Pandora's Box? No idea. Certainly an odd little thing though.

Oh that's supposed to be the hood.

Would readying the Snag Machine be too mean right now? Pretty sure it would be, so for now I'm just envious of her pretty Pokemons.

Absolutely not. It is not fair that we should have to wait to catch pretty Pokemons.

[Quiver he/him]

@Kaymyth

Which pokemons are yours?

(I actually bought Omega Ruby recently...but haven't got a chance to play it yet. But pokemons, soon.)

Also, this.

Let's see if I can do it...ö.... Woo hoo!

Fourteen letters are so much easier to do from a smart phone
