Jan De Vries in his Altnordisches Etymologiches Wörterbuch calls Þórr’s hall Bilskirnir der unvergängliche or the imperishable hall.
The most typical translation found online is “lightning-crack”, but unfortunately this is improbable with how bil and skírr are used in Old Norse; the name undoubtedly derives from bil (to break, crack, or fail) and skirr (to prevent, bar, or to shun).
A more apt translation is “the hall that does not fail” or “the hall that does not break”. These translations are more in line contextually with his home and realm being consistently associated with strength, might and endurance through the use of the þrúð- prefix, which is consistently associated with Þórr.

It is unclear who runs the account, although Russia's official Ministry of Foreign Affairs Twitter account promoted the Telegram channel on Saturday and claimed it was operated by "a group of experts & journalists." Pavel Durov, Telegram's CEO, is known as "the Russian Mark Zuckerberg," for co-founding VKontakte, which is Russian for "in touch," a Facebook imitator that became the country's most popular social networking site. In the past, it was noticed that through bulk SMSes, investors were induced to invest in or purchase the stocks of certain listed companies. As a result, the pandemic saw many newcomers to Telegram, including prominent anti-vaccine activists who used the app's hands-off approach to share false information on shots, a study from the Institute for Strategic Dialogue shows. If you initiate a Secret Chat, however, then these communications are end-to-end encrypted and are tied to the device you are using. That means it’s less convenient to access them across multiple platforms, but you are at far less risk of snooping. Back in the day, Secret Chats received some praise from the EFF, but the fact that its standard system isn’t as secure earned it some criticism. If you’re looking for something that is considered more reliable by privacy advocates, then Signal is the EFF’s preferred platform, although that too is not without some caveats.
