could be it

There is an easy way to check. I percent-encoded all the non-ASCII characters now:

This may be because the URL contains non-ASCII, which I haven't percent-encoded, despite having manually changed ( and ) to %28 and %29 to prevent the parentheses from interfering with Markdown syntax.

Dod you just look up yōkai hoping they would all be like Touhou girls?

Google has. The Zürich university fella needed his own data classification monkeys.

Nice and not US-specific. However, our railways use it sometimes to highlight black text for some reason.

Edit: Added topic to talk page!

It is great but as a Magna Doodle (basically e-ink but manual and magnetic) kid, I can't be convinced to switch to drawing only continuous lines on a tank-like interface. Yes, the effective resolution is about an order of magnitude higher so you can fit an entire poem instead of a short sentence but drawing letters is 20 times slower. Also, there is no monopoly, lots of companies make Magna Doodle clones (I never had the real thing either). If I could make a sufficiently dense (1mm) array of powerful inductors, I would use a scanner mechanism and an Arduino to play 30fps Bad Apple!! on it in a timelapse, showing its superiority in speed (5 seconds per frame) and filling dark regions. (No, the inductors cannot be staggered like nozzles in inkjet printer heads because that would produce streaks by disrupting previously blackened cells.)

This is Mazačka, Prague track lubrication tram popular among transit fans. It would run on a special route across all major tracks every day. Now that 15T trams are getting fitted with lubrication units, it would have become obsolete but they fitted it with a tank and sprinkler to irrigate green corridors, giving it a purpose and placating the fans. It no longer runs every day but there is a schedule and webcam available. There are probably more purposes to it, I think air quality monitoring, leaf removal, track quality control and of course exclusive rides for fans.
