Fast richtig. Karfreitag war nie ein allgemeiner Feiertag, nur für Angehörige bestimmter Religionen. Das wurde gestrichen(war auch ziemlich unfair), dafür kann jetzt jeder seinen "persönlichen Feiertag" bestimmen, den der Arbeitgeber nicht ablehnen darf. Man verbraucht dafür aber trotzdem einen Urlaubstag, der ist nicht extra dazu gekommen. Ich kenne aber persönlichen niemanden, der von dieser Regelung Gebrauch macht.

I was pretty sure that there is something and a lot of searching finally led me to the "Unfair Commercial Practices Directive" from 2005. There also is a guidance to that directive from 2021 that is found here: https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=CELEX%3A52021XC1229(05)

Section 4.2.7 (dark patterns) is what is interesting for this topic. In the paragraph at the end of the section it includes the sentence:

unsubscribing from a service should be as easy as subscribing to the service

So it appears that the EU intended it that way but because it's only a directive, implementation differs by country. I also didn't see anything about being able to cancel in the same way you subscribed(e.g. that they can't force you to call or send a letter if you subscribed online), but afaik german law has a ruling like this.

Edit: I took so long to write this and find the links that I forgot the german law was the reason for the comment I answered...

While I knew the name, your comment made me wonder why Croatias country code is in their language while most others aren't. Like, hungary would be Magyarország, which is also very different from their English name.

Also, Austrias country code is wrong in this map. It should be AUT, AUS is Australia.

The second season was released 8 months ago and confirmed over 2 years ago. You may slightly misremember something here.

Am I missing something or is the term "thermal heat" just stupid? Are they trying to sound? Or is there some other meaning of heat that I'm unaware of and that would make sense in this context and therefore the description is needed?

I'm genuinely confused...

Datenschutzgrundverordnung (DSGVO) is called general data protection regulation (GDPR) in english, so data protection seems to be fitting for the context.

It is and you shouldn't drink it. At least not a lot of it or for a long time, otherwise your electrolytes could get to low. And while I don't remember the specifics(biology class was like 15 years ago), I think that can make the osmosis between your cells and your blood not work anymore or even reverse.

Afaik, their most important role is pest control because they eat tons of other insects. They are also very important pollinators. IIrc, third most important after flies and wild bees(not honey bees).

I hate them too, but they are a critical part of our ecosystem.
