Indeed, I rarely add !g bang these days, almost never. But I do hate the censorship on DDG, you can rarely find relevant results if you search for anything Russian, or torrents or similar.

Why? Can you ban FOSS apps nowadays?

More like 1, 2, 10! 💥💥💥 (like in Home Alone)

I believe it’s red these days. 🥴

In the balkans we have a funny term for that - MUP, which stands for Metoda Uzaludnih Pokušaja, the ‘method of futile attempts’.

I still have a soft spot for floppies. 😍

Should be interesting, perhaps the Russian fork will become even more successful than the canonical.

I used it for GUI code as well, I hate frontend work so that saves me quite some time getting all the forms together with a few prompts.

Who even uses Twitter anymore? I stopped browsing it more than a year ago after they borked the public API so it’s not usable any longer. I’m not signing up just to browse tweets, F that.

What?? Special occasion.

Oh, the horror! /s

Then I guess I simply won’t frequent those sites.

Back in the day C64 game packs on cassette tapes were a thing in the former Yugoslavia. You could order them via mail for small change. I bought a number of those, I didn’t even know it was a thing called piracy. 😅

If by ‘Russian KoolAid’ you mean easily preventable inflation, internal border controls due to EU support of genocidal Tel-Aviv regime, exorbitant energy prices, and blatant censorship that even Stalin would envy, then yes, I guess I was thirsty AF…

EU is a total shitshow. It has been for years, but lately we really suffer from this stupid bureaucracy. Paper straws, attached bottle caps, not to mention billions they mindlessly pour into the slugfest in Ukraine.

Yes. Although I noticed strange behavior for playlists, almost each second song triggers the nagging ‘Playback paused, click to continue’ for some reason, it could be related.

Umm, didn’t mean to deride you, sorry that I wasn’t clear enough about that, I should’ve been more precise. What I meant to say was that I was pirating before I knew what pirating even meant. I was not old enough at the time and it was in the good old times of C64 when people weren’t generally aware of piracy.

In other news, Spain sees a surge in VPN services subscription.

Please, I’ve been pirating on C64 before I even got the concept of pirating.
