Quick hint to those website #devs who can't afford or won't purchase additional hardware *just* to test in #Safari, the browser from one of the richest companies in the world (that also couldn't be bothered to compile it for other platforms!) </rant-almost-over-promise>

Just installed it today on my, "also too old to run #Windows" PC.

Now I can be validated that my genius solutions aren't that genius after all! And as a result, be a little more inclusive.

The Protestant Pauluskirche is the oldest church building in Bochum built as a Protestant place of worship (constructed between 1655 and 1659). Although it was destroyed in a bombing raid in 1943, it was restored in simplified form between 1949 and 1950.
However, it now features modern stained glass windows created by Willy Heyer between 1962 and 1964.

Ärgernis Recall und was sich dagegen tun läss: Der BraveBrowser ab Version 1.81 für Windows blockiert Recall, so dass keine Screenshots eurer Browsing-Aktivitäten erstellt werden.
Wie das geht? Brave teilt standardmäßig mit, dass jeder Browsertab privat sei. Und MS versprach, das private Browsertabs nicht gerecallt werden. Das setzt also Vertrauen in M$ voraus, dass sie ihr Versprechen halten.
