Edit:
Just realized the correct name for the tree is actually maple.

False friend caused mistake because its name is "Ahorn" in German.
Keeping the heading as it is, because it is funny, although it might trigger the Canadians (sorry, dudes!).

Hat echt peinlich lange gedauert, bis ich gemerkt habe, dass das Bild auf der Zeitschriften-Ablage nicht die aktuelle Ausgabe ist...

This is absolutely insane, this supposedly is built to handle our identification and personal information of the whole EU.

35 years since the Royal Commission into Aboriginal Deaths in Custody handed down its 339 recommendations on how to curb the crisis. Yet, all these years on, and it’s only worsening with 630 First Peoples having died in the custody of police or corrections since the final report was released, and the 12 months of 2024-25 were the worst year on record.

Numerous coronial inquiries into First Peoples dying in custody reveal that these fatalities are caused by either neglect or straightout abuse. But despite this long list of deaths involving suspicious circumstances only one police officer has ever been convicted in relation to an Aboriginal custody death, whilst no prison guard has ever been. And only a handful of any officers have ever stood trial.

The Royal Commission is still of grave significance as its 339 recommendations were so comprehensive and to move past them is difficult because most have never been implemented.

But mostly when nobody is there to see.

Today I went to Japan and by accident took the car key with me. The car keeps working unto you turn it off. My wife also didn't realize it until she was at home after bringing me to the bus station, and we had no idea where the other car key was.

A while ago I put those Samsung Tag 2 devices on the two car keys. On the one I took the battery was empty. But I could see on my phone that the other one was at home when I left 5 hours ago.

I'm the only one with an android phone, wife and doughter have iPhones, so it's incompatible. I have my old S9 at home, but somehow the PIN didn't work after my wife found it and charged it, damn.

Then I remembered that our son has a Samsung tablet. We installed the Find app on it, but I have several samsung accounts, had to figure out which to log in with. Password is over 30 chars long ... Wife installed WeChat to copy over the password I send to her phone via Element. She logged in and all items showed up, but no connection to car key.

Tension is high, the three years old is cranky grandma arrives, without car key thw whole week will be impossible to work bring the kids to school and kindergarten, etc.

So wife goes down to the car, perhaps it's in there, 5 minutes connection times out, no car key. She goes up again to the flat, no connection still ...

She clicks around in the app, suddenly it shows "Connecting ..." OMG it's happening!

It connected! I try to explain that she needs to press the 🎵 button, but everyone is too exited they don't hear me through the video chat while I'm at the airport in Japan.

They move around with the tablet, signal is getting stronger, they find the 🎵 button and press it, daughter is listening carefully it must be in the wardrobe, very faint sound pipipip pipipipi ... It's in the golf bag! Last time after golf my wife tossed it in there and used the other key ever since.

What a relief, no need to get a rental car!
