And then the back button in your browser can’t take you back anymore.

I agree, but most people don’t know how to do it and online services are easy-to-use and quicker.

I highly suggests all Ubuntu users to use the vanilla Firefox version downloaded from Mozilla. It’s way better because it’s not a Snap package.

No, it’s pretty cheap to get a SMS-only eSIM. It’s like 6 dollars per month.

You can buy eSIMs from countries that don’t require your documents.

I’m still mad at them for disabling the “add to watch later” button on video marked as “for kids”.

You can, if you pass cookies from your browser to the command line. The easiest way is to specify your browser, e.g. yt-dlp --cookies-from-browser firefox

In this case, piracy is the moral thing to do. I wouldn’t even call it piracy at this point.

Thanks for asking! Dying is the solution for everything. It’s the best solution. Humans must die for a variety of reasons.

I envy you, because my 2019 MBPro has fans always spinning and it seems slow and bugged, especially with the latest macOS.

Maybe I should just try formatting, but I don’t know if it’s worth the hassle.

You don’t need to know anything except the recipient’s account number.

You need to know the name of the owner of the account. At least in my experience, if you put a wrong owner number the money transfer will be rejected.

Italy, Bulgaria, Spain for example. They usually couldn’t care less (unless it’s football/soccer piracy).

Germany, on the other hand, cares a lot. Use a VPN for sure there.

“VPN up” depends on the country. Some countries don’t give a flying fuck, don’t waste money on a VPN if you live in such countries.

+1 for Fossify, great set of apps.

Only some countries need VPNs. If your country doesn’t care about piracy (e.g. Italy, Spain or Eastern Europe) just don’t bother paying for a VPN.

Is it stable yet to use it? I’ve seen it and it looks promising, but it’s also under active development.

Add a private torrent indexer and/or Usenet and it’s perfection.

PurelyMail is a great and cheap service. It’s like $10 per year. You just set up some records (MX and TXT) on your domain provider and that’s it.

You could also self-host email, but then you need a server that’s always powered on and it adds much complexity, so I suggest to use a managed service instead.

The good thing about using your own domain is that you’re not tied to any service. You could migrate to any other provider (such as ProtonMail, FastMail, etc.) without ever changing your email address on all services.

Exactly. Italy doesn’t care either, unless it’s football (soccer if you like freedom 🦅).

From the official Nintendo server, if you have an app that then removes the protection from the downloaded files.
