In German it‘s bees and flowers which makes more sense

How would your life change if your boss let you go home once you're done with your tasks for the day?

Assuming my math is right: how did she feel about being married to a ~50-year-old man when she was 20?

This is your chance to make one. After all, today you learned that.

There is one thing the article omits which is very important: the time frame. At first it looks like this is based on 2024 numbers alone but seeing 52 million for the USA (about 15% of total population) and 16 million for Germany (20%) made me check the linked source. The data was aggregated over the last 35 years.

It's mostly a "well, technically" kind of thing. First prototypes were around since the 1840s but the first commercial telefax service was introduced in February 1865, a little under two months before Lincoln was killed. Samurai were around until the late 1860s or early 1870s. I can't quite find when the first telefax machine was operated in Japan but 1928 shows up on some lists.

So yeah, Lincoln could have sent a fax to a samurai if they both had traveled to France just a few weeks before Lincoln's death.

Collections might have been inherited over generations. For some of them, the current owners may not have much interest in what they have and therefore not be aware of some rare copies.

In proper libraries, we probably have the author and title in a database somewhere but not the content. In private collections, all bets are off.

I would assume that almost any old library or private collection that includes old handwritten books has at least a couple of manuscripts that nobody has read in decades if not centuries.

We're talking about the same event, aren't we?

Big university in Germany that's well-known for their computer science department. Started in 2008 and took way longer than planned. As stated in my other comment, being openly trans was rare when I started but had become more common by the time I got my degree, especially among new students who took the chance to make new friends who never knew their pre-outing personas.

So they see you as a human. Not a gay human.

On the Internet, nobody knows you're a dog
