66 The "-" implicates that it is a login shell. At example you need the login shell to use all your own variables. If you just change user etc. without it, it may happen that - at example - you don't have permissions to geht dconf work because of some variables still got owned by the previous user.

95 But be aware that support is only for german/english. So if you don't understand something and theres a language like italian, korean etc. the chance is low to find someone who can understand this. So then we have to change the languages before and this needs a restart of the session.
