Yes, because when you sell it, you get cash and profit. Profit is taxable, in Germany they tax it with 25% + Solidarity Tax + Church Tax (if you are a member of a church). After, you can go ahead and buy another fund, but in between you "shed" a significant amount of money.

Albanian, managed to understand till 1300. Then it gets more germanic i think, though I speak a bit of German as well, the characters make it a bit difficult to parse.

“Swie!” is interesting, I understood it somehow naturally. In Gheg Albanian we say “Shuj!”, which means “Be silent!”.

> but if cancer were easy for the immune system to deal with nobody would die of it.

This made me think, whether it would somehow make sense that cancer cells on another host would be detected by the immune system of that host. Theoretically, these immune cells have different “initialization parameters” so to say and maybe they could show affinity to the foreign cancer cells.

But then again I am not an expert and this is just a pure speculation.

Saying that Serbia was establishing order within its territory is a bit cynical take. What they did is that they systematically[1] cleansed villages and settlements in order to decrease the percentage of Albanian population in Kosovo.

In a way, they were implementing a century old policy of a guy named Vaso Cubrilovic who argued that Albanians should be expelled[2] from the lands Serbia (precursor of Yugoslavia) took in 1913.

What NATO did, is stopping exactly this from happening.
