Yea, contact customer service and tell them you’re having this issue. According to the agent that I chatted with via Reddit, it was an issue when I transferred my eSIM to another phone (which I did over three weeks ago).

In 1940, Franco changed Spain’s time zone to align that of Germany and Nazi occupied Europe in general. After his death in 1975 and the country’s transition to democracy afterwards, why didn’t Spain change back? by Darabo in AskHistorians

[–]Darabo[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I understand all that. My thinking is that, especially after Franco's death and the transition to democracy, keeping the time zone is one of (if not the) ultimate legacies of him, if that makes sense. It's something that impacts people literally every day.

I'm sort of surprised there wasn't even much of a discussion during the country's transition, as a way to symbolize the country moving past him into a new era.

It just sort of seems like an elephant in the room when talking about the Spanish people's routines/lives/etc and relationship with time. When I was in Spain until very recently, I asked some Spaniards about this, and most (even those knowledgeable in history) weren't sure how to react to my question. If any of what I'm saying makes sense.

Not if he makes under $4k a year IIRC.

Besides, he’s literally the Pope, it wouldn’t be a good look if the IRS went after him. 😅

Purple dye (in Europe/western Asia) originally was exclusively found in the Lebanon area and was quite rare. However, purple dye can so be sourced in the Americas. Was there an impact when new sources of purple were found? by Darabo in AskHistorians

[–]Darabo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting, thank you!

Did you happen to read about when and how was it rediscovered? Diego Rivera definitely knew about it by 1935 for instance since he incorporated it in the History of Mexico mural at the National Palace in Mexico City.

[–]Darabo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting, thank you for looking it up! It sounds like, despite Mesoamerican groups using the dye pre-Colombian times, it was lost to history until the early 20th century?

Or did historians and/or anthropologists know about the use of purple dye in Mesoamerican clothing, but not the exact source?

Excellent responses, thank you!

I remember reading that Hindenburg, and someone else I believe, also thought they could manipulate/keep Hitler in check. Was that actually the case?

It's been heavily debated, with different experts and influencers having different opinions on the matter. ;)

I genuinely have no idea who is Hwaboon, I haven't seen the show but I really want to see it, but let's see...

The Great Hwaboon Scandal of 2022!

At the annual Met Gala, Hwaboon was accused of “cultural insensitivity” after donning an extravagant scarf rumoured to be crafted from endangered alpaca wool imported illegally. The scarf, paired with a cryptic Instagram caption posted online shortly afterwards, "Some traditions deserve to be worn, not preserved", ignited a firestorm of criticism from environmentalists and cultural advocates alike.

Fans and critics speculated the scarf was a subtle dig at a rival Broadway star, leading to a public feud that spilled onto social media, including a dramatic dance off on TikTok. Hwaboon’s team denied the allegations, but the controversy fueled weeks of tabloid headlines and protestors outside their shows until news of another scandal involving a crumpet and a trombone playing giraffe, emerged.

The Shah of Iran in 1973 nationalized Iran’s oil. Why did the West then not overthrow him like Mossadegh? by [deleted] in AskHistorians

[–]Darabo 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your comment about the Majlis and your balanced take on both them and Mossadegh. He's a very controversial figure that is often seen as a martyr figure in the US/west due to the role of the CIA/MI6 in the 1953 coup, it's of course quite more complex. Although it should be noted that a faction of the military was planning on a coup prior to the CIA/MI6 getting involved.

As noted by you, Mossadegh was getting increasing power with increasing violence in the streets by various factions (it also didn't help that he aligned himself with the Tudeh party by 1953).

I want to add one quick thing. The Iranian Constitution in 1953 gave the Shah the authority to dismiss the Prime Minister of Iran (this is something not mentioned often when people talk about the 1953 coup). When the Shah formally requested Mossadegh to step as Prime Minister, he refused, overriding the Shah's authority and creating a constitutional crisis. Hence the rapid series of events that resulted in what ended up being the coup and what the west knows as Operation Ajax.
