using diacritics on the Internet makes everything more difficult

which, in my case, was compounded by MacOS also making weird choices about how to handle encodings

using the MacOS (built-in) archiving tool to create a .zip file out of data with diacritics in the file names resulted in a bundle that, when extracted in CPanel, yielded mangled UTF-8 data

you know it's a good day for debugging when the answer to your troubles is in an essay written in 2008: https://marcosc.com/2008/12/zip-files-and-encoding-i-hate-you/

Wtf, Microslop Outslopk sent me an email with a responded to email and instead of translating email "From" and "To" as German "Von" and "An", they transloped it to "Von" and "Bis" (so the equivalent of "From" and "Until", which in english is fine as "From" and "To").

From: [email protected]
Until: [email protected]

Beautifully done Microslop, who cares about words, let's pretend nothing matters anyway and delete all translations Microsoft did right in the last 30 years and slop it

Liebe CDU,

wir sind nicht faul. Wir sind müde, erschöpft, ausgelaugt durch Pandemie, Klimakrise, Rechtsruck, Kriege, Arbeitsverdichtung, steigende Kosten, zunehmende Armut, unbezahlte Überstunden, marode Infrastruktur uvm.

Wir brauchen endlich faire Besteuerung, Klimaschutz, soziale Politik, Gesundheitsprävention, Investitionen in die Infrastruktur usw.

Was wir nicht brauchen, ist eine Regierungspartei, die uns als faul beschimpft.
