    The Deutsche Post time travel is trivial. Their app is an aspx page, so some flavor of .Net. The 01.01 timestamps on those two intermediate stops are simply missing or uninitialized values. The zero epoch for .Net is Jan 1 of year 1 CE. Which if formatted as "dd.mm." becomes "01.01." Yawn.

    Disney - and all streaming services - have always done per minute pricing. It's just that it's easier to sell it to customers as £15 per month rather than 0.035p per minute.

    No, it's just that the price is variable. If you watch one minute in a month then it's $15 per minute. If you watch two then it's $7.50 per minute. And so on.

    (obviously we're both joking)

    The inverted "infinity" is a pretty wild! I wonder if that's due to a '-' acting as a control character for that!

    In fascinated by the upside-down infinity. What kind of bug can cause something like that?

    Actually their percentages are always like that i.e. mirrored through the horizontal axis, it's just their test data only included 10%, 30% and 80% so they never noticed

    "Inverted Infinity"? But... ∞ upside down is again ∞ !

    Reverse rotated percent-infinity - the central mechanism for der Herr German DPD Zeitreiseapparaten!

    I didn't even recognise the "infinity" as being an actual word written with upside down letters at first. I thought the division by 0 had summoned some eldritch horror.
