Yeah that one messes me up as well. Who of these birthed the cat? Who of these did the cat birth?

Anything from the inventor of the AK-47 regretting the deaths good invention caused and how it doesn't line up with his Orthodox beliefs, to the guy who decided that two slashes should follow an internet protocol saying it wasn't necessary; what a list!

Listening to a track 10x means Spotify says it's worth max $0.05, $0.035 goes to not-Spotify, and a fraction again of that goes to the actual artists rather than the publishers...

So either millions of people listen to a track dozens of times or it's not really worth being on Spotify except for the reachability, right?

Your local computer shop, most likely. If it's run by some old guy with a soldering shop hosting his website on his own little server in the back room of the shop they're probably the best, speaking from experience here (NL)

As for the Netherlands, tweakers.com their price watch has a decent database of competing prizes across Dutch web shops, even smaller ones!
To anyone reading this, please let me know if there's websites like this for other European countries!

I can speak for Nord's client sending requests to Google for some reason, maybe not great for privacy thus not great for piracy either.

I can speak well of Mullvad, but advise against sending hundreds of bucks in one go as paper mail is not exactly well secured. There's another VPN that happily accepts cash as payment and doesn't need your info but I can't find it atm...

Dumb answer: Just use a VPN, my guy.

That's just the difference between compiled and interpreted.

Interpreted programs such as web apps can very much be programs, after all.

We need to rewrite it to nerd.rs for speed and memory safety!

You're right, I must've copied the links incorrectly, I just fixed them.
