The first E in Mercedes sounds slightly different from the other two in German, mostly because the rhotic sound [r] modifies the tongue placement for the preceding E, forcing you to say it as either an open-mid front unrounded vowel [ɛ], or a mid near-front unrounded [ɛ̽]. The [r] prevents the vowel from being a Close-mid front unrounded vowel [e] like the 2nd and 3rd occurrences of E.
Or more simply, the first e sounds more like “bed” while the second and third sound more like “may”, assuming you’re reading this with a standard American dialect.
Not if you pronounce it the way Germans do

Euclidean space is not the only space where straight lines are possible.
In actual reality there would be wind and water currents diverting any ship sailing that route from the depicted “line” anyway so the whole argument is pointless
The only straight line paths in the universe are followed by electrostatically uncharged non-accelerating objects in free fall in a vacuum. Or massless particles.
It’s a straight line through non-euclidean space

Bottom is bad. Top is worse. We deserve better than all pictured. If you disagree, I do not respect you.
Why learn how to use the entire swiss army knife when you can keep it closed to use it as a very small hammer?
Transphobia is the intersection of misandry and toxic masculinity and all of it is gross.
