I'm not sure. IMO when you buy a Mac (or use Windows or an Android phone) you have accepted so much that there is nothing which is not allowed.

But nevertheless: as far as I have understood it everything is built on your computer and is still used on your computer. You - as the user of the Mac - has took and saved the information. Your Mac is then only working for you - if Apple doesn't load the information in their enviroment.

Maybe for someone interesting, too, could be the Repository "Continuous Unix commit history from 1970 until today" (https://github.com/dspinellis/unix-history-repo.git) from Prof. Diomidis Spinellis.

Better: in Germany you have the legal right to have a minimum of 24 days of vacation in the year (§3 Bundesurlaubsgesetz).

Mmmhh... I don't think the OECD data is not working comparing countries:

"The data are published with the following health warning: The data are intended for comparisons of trends over time; they are unsuitable for comparisons of the level of average annual hours of work for a given year, because of differences in their sources and method of calculation."

Yes, in Germany are many part-time workers but overall mostly they are not working 6 hours the day . Normal is - afaik - 8 hours per day on approx. 220 days in a year.

It took only a second to see what I would miss as like on most of the mail clients: why isn't it possible to configure the list of mails to see not only the sender but the e-mail address? I only know three e-mail clients where I can configure it: mutt, betterbird and evolution. But maybe I'm old and no one would like to see that "bill gates " is not from bill gates before opening the mail (and render the contents). The phisher are thankful.
