As some people do not seem to understand sarcasm at all: they mean the opposite of what is stated.

Well here is where my PhD in tracking stuff on paper, which gets handed out in triplicate to every German child at birth, comes in handy. The signature line customarily includes the date again because printing date and signing date (and thus validity) might differ. And yes, I know this is not applicable in a restaurant (hopefully), but that's generally the reason when it occurs.

When ridiculing the dystopian mess that is the "social credit score" system in China it is good to always remember that it is called like that because it was based of the "credit score" system used in many libertarian countries, where it is regularly used to deny access to essentials of societal life, like housing, energy, and communication.

I meant scientists did too. They thought it would take way longer to turn bad than it actually did, at least most of them thought so. Would probably be interesting to do a meta-study on how much the corridor of estimates narrowed or widened in the IPCC reports over the years, and in which general direction they trended.

To my knowledge yes, "we" did. Actual measurements have turned out to be on the pessimistic end of the spectrum of predictions or beyond consistently. The first IPCC report that got really into doomerism was the one from 2021, that was supposedly leaked for fear of political censorship:

IPCC steps up warning on climate tipping points in leaked draft report

Scientist for the first twenty years of my life:

We are destroying the only ecosystem supporting human life, it's going to start being really bad in a hundred years.

Scientists for the last ten years of my life:

Haha, we might have been a bit optimistic on that estimate, this new data looks really bad. Oops.

Anti-doomers the whole time:

Hey don't be alarmist, you will just make the public apathetic and nothing will get done.

The public:

The fuck are these fucking idiots sitting in the god-damn road for? I gotta get to work, move it!

Politicians:

*doing nothing*

So it’s either a Chrome thing or a Mac and Chrome thing.

Neither really, it's a font thing. I see a wooden wheel in the page title, a car wheel in my tab bar, and it's missing in the window title.

Die Bundeswehr benutzt bereits einen Matrix-basierten Messenger, den BwMessenger, und die Firma welche den entwickelt hat arbeitet gerade auch an einer Version für den ÖD im Allgemeinen, den BundesMessenger. Ist technisch gesehen noch in der Beta, aber die haben das komplette Backend containerisiert und einen eigenen Client entwickelt. Vielleicht sieht das ja für eure Admins ein wenig überzeugender aus als ein (zugegebenermaßen komplexes) Matrix-Backend selber zusammen zu frickeln:

liveuamap.com reports there was a second plane owned by Prigozhin in the air, so my conspiracy theory is he got wind of the impending assassination, swapped the passenger lists, and will be announcing his "March of Justice" 2.0 shortly.

Actually you are both wrong, since the Balkenkreuz and the Eiserne Kreuz are but two of hundreds of variations of the same symbol, the black cross of the German Order of knights, dating back to the 12th century. It's the same symbol.

And not only that, the particular variation you are going on about, the Balkenkreuz, black cross with a thick white and small black outline except for the endings of the cross, isn't a Nazi symbol. It was used in the first world war already.

Which is all completely ignoring that it's a simple cross with a single outline, one of the most basic shapes there is, used by a medical company.

All to say, I see how it's easy to mistake, but you are wrong on the facts and you are airing your grievances on the wrong venue. Write to the company, maybe they will even agree with you and change it.
