We had that issue at work with email account passwords that could be entered into a browser in UTF-8 but would be sent by email clients on Windows in whatever the default encoding there was, usually not UTF-8.
The server just blindly pushed the bytes it received into the hashing algorithm. It didn’t have any means of identifying the encoding used either way. We “solved” it by showing a warning about the bug when people logged in and entered a password with non-ASCII characters. Many people used a web-based email client anyways so it wasn’t such a huge issue anyways. We didn’t want to force customers to only use ASCII symbols.

At our place it was email clients using whatever is the default encoding of Windows to encode passwords. Usually not UTF-8, like every other piece of software using that password.

In Germany we call bland white bread “toast bread” because it can only taste good when toasted.

I wonder if she could keep the “tradition” alive in Germany. It has strict rules about what names you can give your child. But names that fit your heritage and culture are usually allowed.

- Comment on Someone should register Lemmy.Worlf, and use it as a URL redirect for Lemmy.World. 1 week ago:
That was extensively done, especially in the. beginning of the internet. Scammers would register typo domains and plaster them full of ads. It’s still. being done today, but with basically everyone using Google as the address bar it’s probably less effective.

canonicalhtml meta tag that is available for exactly this purpose. - Comment on [deleted] 1 week ago:
Duplicate content is no problem. All posts have a
canonicaltag that points to the source post. Google will automatically only add that one URL to the index. - Comment on [deleted] 1 week ago:

I still don’t know why they sell one Uncharted game on Steam under the name “Uncharted Collection”. It’s just one game and some DLC.

A corporate indie event somehow sounds wrong. Hope they didn’t have to pay much to be included.

10!means ten factorial. So 10 * 9 * 8 * 7 * 6 * 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1.It’s a common math joke.

In my area they are often accompanied by wooden policeman stands to indicate the new obstacle. Though they usually take them away after a year or so and only sometimes leave behind a proper sign.

Warwick Davis (best known for his roles as Wicket the Ewok or Willow) told this story from when he was an extra at the pod race in Star Wars Episode 1.
He had an awesome looking cocktail and he made the fatal mistake of taking three large sips in the first take. And of course he had to repeat that action every take. And they had to do many takes. Trouble was (apart from the enormous amount of liquid) that the cocktail tasted absolutely awful. But as a professional he stuck to his role of course.
Those takes never made it into the movie. They aren’t even available as cut scenes or still photos.
