PCBWay's "contact" detail page includes gender. (You contact me on my phone number, email or gender.) Apparently, the third gender is "Secrecy". In HTML, the selector is called "sexuality". Maybe I can change the sex of the fake support agent's avatar?
Anyway, the HTML is questionable and so is the JavaScript: there is a GMT and China Time clock that shows seconds but as explicitly stated, it "updates every 5 minutes". Or at least it would if the timeout function wasn't broken. When I forcefully run it, it adds 5 minutes but subtracts a giant number of years (invisibly because the date does not update), eventually reaching 64bits' worth of microseconds ago and starting to show "NaN:NaN:NaN" in the date. Instead of fixing this, they limited the time update task scheduler to only run 10 times but it actually runs 0 times.

Warum darf man auf "fahrradfreie" Strecken radeln, wenn Alkohol in eine "alkoholfreie" Flasche nicht eingelassen wird?
Yet they say “Easter Eggs”, referring to a Pagan tradition. As hypocritical as it gets.
It stopped working when I uninstalled Edge, and so did the face recognition. So it depends on WebView or some shit. Pretty sure it’s Microsoft's way of getting around the new EU regulations and hastily integrating the browser into everything, regardless of it making sense or improving security. like they did with 98 after the browser anti-competitiveness lawsuit.
They do say “everyone”, though

Low-quality photo of a cleanly decapped chip with no resin around it, lying in a recessed rectangle in black plastic or ceramic. It is protected with some clear coat, and there are gold bond wires connecting it with 14 pins embedded in the package material. Two of them on opposing sides are connected and form a bed that the die.A structured square takes up most of the left half of the die and appears significantly darker. The rest is usual chip design with minor rectangular structures. The second photo uses crappy dusty lenses instead of digital zoom. It is slightly less cropped so it is revealed that the entire thing is within a deeper recess, possibly with a tab that keeps a cover on?
I don't have a camera better than my phone, sorry, and the magnifying glasses did not really help.
The pics are purposefully cropped to make the guessing a little harder. The chip continues to work now that I’ve undone this.
You may ask follow-up questions. I will post the full story and pics once you guess correctly.
~~Please use the spoiler syntax for your guesses so that people can enjoy guessing with follow-up hints without spoilers!~~ You really don't like doing this, apparently. I thought it would make it more fun for people to take a guess even after someone guesses correctly.
I will do the same with any hints and answers I post in the comments so that everyone can choose the difficulty.
Dude finally gets a job and doesn't remember when he lost it

Police once apprehended a man at a train station in Kyjov (Kiyov), Czech Republic. He was reported to be drunk but they only found him terribly confused. Turns out, he was a Ukrainian trying to return to Kyjev (Kyiv) but a cashier in another town misunderstood and showed him the wrong train.
It also probably works as contraception, TBH
I just se saved 206 GiB on my drive. Thanks!
Who knew the funny diacritics used so much storage?
I want to talk about Czech topics with someone other than my alter-egos... How do i get people to join?
I tried to lobby on Reddit, with predictable results.

Lb-Ft
FFS, just adopt the metric system already. And "lb" is not a force unit. Also don't capitalize unit abbreviations unless named after scientists.

A recreation of the Piper Perri Surrounded meme. A white CASIO CFX-9850GB PLUS calculator is laid on its side on a cushion while three TI-83 Plus and two TI-84 Plus calculators, all black, are standing behind the cushion. The faces of corresponding actors are shown in 4-tone pixelated pictures on each calculator's respective screens, grayscale on the TIs and sepia-toned on the CASIO thanks to its (limited) color graphics. Words of the text "Original meme by Chaotic Neutral Czech" are used in place of the SHIFT functions on a row of keys on the Casio as a mild watermark.

Wow, Microsoft is now copying LibreOffice. Who could have guesses?
I'm not an expert but probably because it's Dutch
