Yeah, same, I found it a bit surprising they have fewer than Germany
Oh I wish it was. Eg. here in Finland sharing movies etc. among friends or downloading them off the internet used to be legal as long as you weren't doing it for profit or distributing stuff to a huge audience, but that changed in 2006 because the new EU Copyright Directive required it, and that directive was hugely influenced by the likes of WIPO.
Governments rarely realize anything related to IP that the copyright mafia doesn't spoon-feed them, unfortunately.
Urr, I don't think that's it, I don't think stereo sound for vinyls has ever worked so that something like this would be necessary and it wouldn't really make sense – why would they have to put vocals on one channel and instruments on the other?
A stereo vinyl player just has the needle moving up and down in addition to left and right, so that the left-right axis is the sum of the waveforms of both channels and the up-down axis is the difference – which means that a regular mono player can play stereo vinyls

That's known as a ligature and they're pretty common in many programming-oriented fonts, which usually have stylistic sets with different ligatures for different programming languages that you can optionally enable in your editor's configuration.

Personally I'm not too fond of ligatures so I never enable any, but many folks do like them.
Edit: and just as a side note, ligatures are super common in many fonts, you just might not notice them. Here's some classic examples from the DejaVu Serif font, with and without a ligature:
"A".reverse() == "∀"
Where is your god now?!
More of a tragicomedy, really
No thank you
After a certain age people stop asking you what your favorite dinosaur is, and I think that's sad.
My current one's the Anchiornis, because it's in the same clade as birds so it's in their family tree, and it really looks like a prototype of a bird. It had 4 wings for example, but it already looked very birb-y:
(Figured I'd just turn an earlier comment into an actual post because why not)

I'm hesitant to say it because I've gotten some ridiculously hostile reactions for it, but I've really liked Kagi.
Yes, it's a subscription service but that means they have an incentive to not show you shit results. According to some, paying for a search service is wrong because online services should be free, and I'm just astroturfing if I even mention it
