It probably will have to to satisfy anti-monopoly rulings: allow app installation to be as seamless as Play Store (which has root access or similar).

undermine Trump's second presidency

He's been impeached, convicted, and had an absolutely awful pandemic response, and noneof it ultimately mattered, he served his whole term and got a second one. Trying to hurt his reputation is a lost cause, not to mention JD Vance is the fallback.

What's the problem except that Germans usually show the thumbmost 3 fingers for "3"?

Home inspections would trigger lots of backlash. This will just regulate physical stores because the lawmakers are boomers. Also you can't have a massively-multi-dildo display at home if you expect snitches to come over.

Maybe they'll use this as an excuse to monitor people's online activity and/or mail. What if you're buying dildos? Also lathes and 3D printers might become popular among sex shops for on-demand production. Invest!

They did paste it correctly but in Markdown, you have to type three. The first one escapes the second, and the third one escapes the underscore and prevents the pair from becoming an italics flag.

1: ¯_(ツ)_/¯
2: ¯\(ツ)/¯
3: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

The examples above are slightly fake: the unescaped right underscores in lines 1 and 3 would mark the start and end of another italics segment, so I escaped them to imitate what happens in a comment with no underscores except this kaomoji.

Let's say 2 people used TempleOS, Symbian, MS-DOS or some other extremely weird thing to load the website in 2023 and then 42 in 2024 because it gets referenced in a porn video or something. The relative increase bar of 2000% would dwarf the changes in major OSs' usage even though the absolute number is miniscule in comparison. Yes, they get lumped into "other" but this kind of discrepancy is already happening with the somewhat exaggerated Linux increase: Windows actually gained 3x more users than Linux did in absolute terms but the Linux bar is 3x bigger.

Bar graph of absolute percentages before & after overlaid. For example, a darker outline rectangle for 2023 and a lighter filled rectangle for 2024. Or just two rectangles next to each other, as lots of business charts do.

The original contains lots of blank space. Yes, it's realistic for a computer console to have a dense character grid but it couldn't fit readably on my 240p feature phone. So I took the website version and modified the CSS to fit into 480p without antialiasing, then scaled it to 50%. (Yes, it would have been better to natively render it at 240p but I couldn't figure out how to turn off subpixel AA that wouldn't work on the phone screen (VBGR in landscape) - yes, I should have just turned everything B/W and added the amber tint in post but I hadn't known about ffmpeg back then.)

I don't like how the bar graphs, obviously supposed to show percentage points, actually show relative percent change.

Yes but I felt the need to include the evil/misguided minority of Germans, and I managed to do it without referencing certain 20th century events.

Printed circuit boards. Printing press. Graph theory. Theory of relativity. Homeopathy.

We do have drive-through restaurants and even some drive-in supermarkets in the center of cities. I just missed my train yesterday because the bus got stuck in traffic. I really hate how car-brained my country is (honorable mentions to exceptions: Hradec Králové, Pardubice and the other few towns in the Elbe lowland that have embraced bike infrastructure to about the standards of an average German town)
