That's true, but I think the difference lies in the fact that the company using the NERV name for their product is a public disadter alert service, and doesn't seek to do or emulate anything it's named after.

That's not the same for a surveillance company or a defence contractor named after the big bad of a media franchise.

Funny, I was debating posting a note thanking the HN staff myself for adding this to the comment guidelines but I don't think it's possible to write one without sounding at least a little bit like a bot...

My bad, I glossed over that.

Now I tested that too, it doesn't work that way for me, even if there's text highlighted (both regular text or a hyperlink) the menu remains contextualised.

There must be something wrong with Firefox on MacOS, I don't experience the same on linux. Options only show up when relevant, i.e. Save Image as only when hovering over an image, translate selection only when text is highlighted with the cursor, etc.

The longest right click menu I could find by clicking around various elements is no more than 12 items, two of which are from extensions.

I'd love to know why it's different.

IANAL but the law in Germany is basically the same in this case, accessing data that's meant to be protected and not intended for you is is illegal. It depends somewhat on the interpretation of what "specifically protected" ("besonders gesichert") means. https://www.gesetze-im-internet.de/stgb/__202a.html

That's not exactly right, Wero the app is not Wero the payment system. Banks and payment processors are expected to integrate Wero the same way they do with iDeal and similar systems. So ultimately if your bank's app doesn't require attestation you will be able to use Wero through it.

Down at the bottom of the menu there's an altitude scale slider. It defaults to 1.2, changing it to 1.0 makes the trails look better.
