I keep forgetting that there are actual countries where the week begins in the middle of the weekend
this is a dilemma, light mode is light mode but dark mode hurts
I might be switching to light mode lol (even though the colors are all messed up there because dark mode and light mode use the same color pool)

No.
Food hot take #12: mayonnaise does not go with fries and is one of the worst sauces you can put on them.
Ketchup, Barbecue and even curry sauce are all clear.
How does Bing Translate learn?!
That says “Sliverus (splinter)”.
And another one!
Like, why?! That’s the phrasing wikipedia uses for disambiguations in German! It doesn’t make any sense!
I’m using Microsoft’s Edge translate feature to translate wasteof.money to German and it is very funny
Like, I knew Bing translate was bad, but it’s bad
Here are some of the translations
Post → Provide
I… can’t. → I… Not.
feed → to feed (like the verb)
Google → to Google (in the authentication settings)
wynd → wynd (clarification of the term (the thing in brackets was part of the translation. that specific string appears on https://de.wikibrief.org/, so they appear to be “using” data from the internet for their translator and failing horribly… and there is also no closing bracket)
report → story
Apr 14, 2023, 8:56 PM → 14.2023.8, 56:<>
edit → edit (but a word that is quite unknown and actually means a professional proofreader editing a professional thing, not at all suitable for a post)
Don't always assume the worst!
Health & Fitness: Obviously, Meta wants you to feel good. This app being similar to Twitter which is well known for being bad for mental health, this is only in your favor.
Financial Info: Well, maybe we'll need to check that you won't pirate Threads in the future!
Contact Info: Yeah, obviously, we need that so we can get your mental health sorted in case it ever gets too bad.
User Content: What if you ever want to post something from your gallery? Think user experience!
Browsing History: We need to know which Instagram accounts you're interested in so we know what to show you.
Diagnostics: Threads is a new app, so we want to know if anything gets wrong.
Purchases: Again, maybe we'll need to know if you've pirated Meta...
Location: Well, because of those pesky Europeans with their "data protection laws" that they deem "important" because of those silly "human rights", we need to check you're not in the EU.
Contacts: This one's a no brainer, you'll want to know who of your contacts is on Threads!
Identifiers: May need this information to ensure your mental health stays good. Meta wants the best for their users.
Sensitive Info: That's just very imprecisely named by the Apple developers, but for some reason the part of our code where we try to find out your SSN doesn't work without this permission. Weird.
(if you couldn't tell, this post is a joke)
