Being cold weakens your immune system. Draft air increases heat loss. There is nothing complex to understand. Outside you would wear a scarf or other appropriate clothing to not feel cold.

That‘s one of the biggest health myths around. Cold weather does NOT weaken your immune system AT ALL (except if you‘re actually hypothermic, which is very different from just feeling uncomfortable). It’s the CONDITIONS that RESULT from cold weather that actually cause those infections to ramp up in winter (think more people staying inside in enclosed spaces).

https://www.prad.de/ is a very reputable resource for display reviews (and to some extend, tvs and beamers)

Lots of use cases for this! I've used https://clearbit.com/blog/logo/ in the past.

Results are somewhat different, e.g. compare https://icon.horse/icon/wikipedia.org to https://logo.clearbit.com/wikipedia.org

This is probably little of a grey area. I don't think that the IP-address by itself is considered personal data since it usually doesn't single out a specific living person. Unless you pair it with other information, like date and time.

But if IP was considered personal data you would need an active consent from the user where you also inform them why you are doing this, which paragraph in GDPR gives you legal right to do this, how long the data is stored and you will need a data processing agreement with Cloudflare. You will also need to be able to prove that you made sufficient effort to make sure you are not handling data of someone under 16 years of age.

People often think that GDPR is made to forbid processing of personal data. Actually you can pretty much do anything with peoples information and still be GDPR compliant. It's more that it becomes such a hassle to do it and still be compliant that it's just not worth it to collect personal data "just because you can".

IP-addresses (with date/time of access) are considered personal data as stated by the ECJ in the case C‑582/14 from 2016 http://curia.europa.eu/juris/document/document.jsf?docid=184...
