Why would you need any software, server or phone for a simple door bell?

No, it’s about self harm and suicide as well. Being suicidal is a symptom of depression, not a free choice. In most (all?) countries psychiatric wards are oblieged to protect you from suicide.
Oh no, 230 years. 1866 was just the first time the Senate was involved, as far as I know.
I don’t know about the US, but in Germany, by using a vending machine, you are implicitely and automatically consenting with the ToS of the vendor by your action.
In the article is a sound explanation: the machine is activated by detecting a human face looking at the display.
If this face recognition software only decides “face” or “not face” and does not store any data, I’m pretty sure this setup will be compatible with any data protection law.
OTOH they claim that these machines provide statistics about age and gender of customers. So they are obviously recognising more than just “face yes”. Still – if the data stored is just a statistics on age and gender and no personalised data, I’m pretty sure it still complies even with 1920s data protection habits.
I’m pretty sure that this would be GDPR conform, too, as long as the customer is informed, e.g. by including this info in the terms of service.

The directional particel “hin” is a commonly used word in German without an exact equivalent in English. “thither” is the best approximation I could find, though it’s usage is completely different, of course.
The spelling “tho” was commonly used back at least in North American informal writing in the 1980s already, and was proposed as a shorthand brief already by Thomas Shelton in his 1626 Tachygraphy. Predating cell phones a bit.
I hope you are right.
No volunteer army will ever be able to fight a war with Moscow. We don’t need conscription now, but we need to be aware that we might need in 5-15 years time and be prepared.
It’s definitely not Anglo–Saxon as in “inherited from the Germanic tribes of Angles and Saxons”, afaik medieval and early modern English society was quite open about sex.
After the Reformation, England bred or harboured quite a few fundamentalist Christian sects which had a huge impact on English and especially American society.
Thank you. So it’s not just a doorbell, rather a remote controlled surveillance and communication system. That is a bit more complicated than a bell at the door.
