Headshot, without any bullets 😂

Am I a bully for watching him getting eaten up by my dogs?

RIP poor soul, you’ll be remembered (in my funny memories)

How do messaging webapps simultaneously show different timestamps for the same message on two different devices sitting in different timezones?

I am on Ubuntu, and ran a quick experiment: Changed my Ubuntu laptop's timezone from Dublin to Sweden to see if WhatsApp shows me a different timestamp for a previously exchanged text, but it didn't even after refreshing or clearing the whole cache.

My suspicion is on the network timezone (for example, the WiFi I'm connected with), but wouldn't it be too difficult because the machine's timezone would constantly override network's timezone?

The story with WhatsApp Business web was different, it could show timestamps according to a changed local timezone. Also, the chat thumbnails I didn't have a conversation in (no Tx/Rx) showed the previous timestamp, before I changed my laptop's timezone. But the chat thumbnails I had a conversation in after changing the timestamp, did show a new timestamp. Regardless of the thumbnails, the actual message timestamps within both the kinds of chats were the same (local timezone, that I changed).

I even met a colleague on my way down, while he was going up. The last 10% of the hike is the steepest, making it a very challenging one.
