I haven't worn socks in years.  They kept getting wet when water came up through the holes in my shoes.

You need to replace your shoes when they get holes in them.

Can't.  I need socks to try on new shoes at the shoe store.

Buy socks, carry them with you.

Or you can just try on the shoes with the damp socks.  In my experience, no one in the shoe store checks the condition of your socks.

I agree that Alpaca wool socks are the height of comfort.

Old English versus modern English speakers. How much can they pick up?

Love this channel, Latin intelligibility vs. Romance speakers, Old Norse vs. Scandi languages, this channel has it all.

Just watched the Latin Vs. Romance languages and it's pretty interesting. It's quite unique to see Latin being spoken fluently, and quite understandable to boot (at least for a Romance language speaker).

Those who studied Latin beg to differ for the uniqueness of Latin being spoken fluently.
As for Romance language speakers, depend which language we are talking about. 

Nice video, however.

I studies Latin for three years in high school.  There were four choices of languages in school.  Spanish, German, French and Latin.  I picked Latin so nobody would know if I sucked at it.

The German Bundeswehr now also has a Space Command or WELTRAUMKOMMANDO (currently under the Luftwaffe).



The symbol top right ... yeah, really creative, guys.

[The Brain]

OTOH it could have been so much worse.

[Sheilbh]

Yeah UK also formed a Space Command this year, but I think it's joint forces plus civil service. They don't have a new badge yet I don't think

I love that everyone is so obviously working towards a united star fleet

[Duque de Bragança]

Jupiter also created a Space Command.



Change is not dramatic, shall we say?

TFW you watch a documentary about the Hammerskins network in Germany and their leading figure and éminence grise for Europe is a guy you met twice in holiday camp when you were both 10 or 11 years old.

[Duque de Bragança]

Holiday cam?
Following Yi's explanation of sexcam market practices?

Interesting.
