Why do i want a copy of something I am only going to watch once? And why should I keep a copy if I can just stream it again from the same or some different site for free in the future?

Streaming is just more practical. Doesn't matter if its legal or piracy

Edit to clarify: I am not saying this opinion is good, it is an example of how many people think and the reason why pirate streaming sites exist

What are egg wets? Tried to look it up but can't find anything that would fit this meme

Congrats you managed to skip over the first and second sentence in my 2 sentence comment.

A VPN is not like a physical product. YOU ARE BUYING TRUST. You shift the point of trust from your ISP, network provider, government etc to the VPN provider. You say "I trust this company more than I trust these other players, so I use their VPN which hides my traffic from these other players but puts the VPN provider in a position where they can see all my network traffic".

This might very well not (yet) be the "burning of the reichstag and declaration of the state of emergency" part of the fashist takeover. Trump is incompetent but if he does to much damage the government might just complety collapse and musk and zuck can enact a monarchy.

I am much more afraid of the people in the second row ready to take over than of trump himself.

When the product is "trust" there is no separation. I do no longer trust the CEO so I will not use the product that relies on that trust.

It kinda does its just not what you expected (and not what the question meant). In a 500kg mixture of you (100kg) and wine (400kg), exactly 80% of that mixture is wine and 20% is you.

To answer the actually question you'd need to know how much extract you need to turn 1L of blood into 1L of wine and I'm to lazy for that math.

Its the definition of "you dont own the game". You pay to get access to the service of playing the game and it wants to keep you playing as long as possible so you spend more money on micro transactions. They are constantly updated, usually as some form of "season", have daily login streak bonuses, etc. And after 2 years the game shuts down and you have nothing and can't play anything you paid for anymore.

Every live service game that fails or gets cancled is a good thing.

So due to the nature of it beeing riddles it is quite possible the answer is bugged and the hash wrong. But because nobody "knows" they have the solution nobody can say it is a bug.

You also dont throw them at your enemies. Replacing "smoke" with "flash" works wqy better

Except at some point a politician would look at the big pot of gold and decide that its a good source of money to fund their new political project. So the insurance reserve becomes a normal part of the state budget. Then the fire happens and to offset the huge hole in the budget, social services and schools are shut down.

Just because it is state run doesn't mean a rich person wouldn't misuse it to enrich themselves and fuck over poor people.

There is no reason to push and shove and stand in front of the door to get in before letting people out if there is a train every 3 min. Seen the same in Singapore. You arrive at the station, see your train is already there but you dont care. You dont run you dont rush because it doesn't matter. You just take the next one

Ever been to a restaurant, ate a meal cooked by somebody other than yourself? Pre-made frozen meal? Fast food?

Dont want to sound mean or anything but most people are comfortable with having somebody else prepare a meal, so why is it different when you prepare it but somebody else tells you how to do it?
