If there is political will, there is a way. The problem is often political will.

Ah, yes. I remember Jesus explaining this in the lecture on the mount.

Sure. But I also professionally use a product that works better on Chrome (and Edge nowadays) so I’m lazy about it. Eventually I’ll move to Firefox on my home PC. But in on my work PC and phone 95% of the time already so it’s not going to make a huge dent.

They don’t care about individual downloaders that much here and I genuinely don’t use it that much.

Jokes on you. I don’t have nipples.

I’ve got 1000/1000 fiber for €32, which I think is a pretty good deal in the Netherlands at the moment. I will go back to 100/100 for probably a similar amount after my contract is up as 1000/1000 is simply overkill for our use case. But who knows, maybe I’ll find another deal.

In my country torrent sites are blocked, so I use a search plugin for qBittorrent to find Linux ISOs. I don’t quite remember which one I use or how I installed, but it was quite simple. Google is your friend.

They need to do way instain mother> who kill thier babbys.

They really do want us to use Firefox, don’t they?

Those explorers just brought them over after Columbus showed them where the tomatoes were.

The Italians took noodles from the silk road, tomatoes from Columbus, and pretended to have a culinary heritage.

After a certain point money becomes much less of a motivator I find. I could probably make 20-30k more in the US.

But I live in a MCOL area, family and friends are close, I work only 4 days a week, my job provides me with an electric car off my choice (with private use), I live close to countries I enjoy spending my vacations in, I have affordable healthcare, I have a very solid safety net, decent pension system, public infrastructure is fantastic, I live knowing my fellow citizens enjoy many of those same things, etc.

I’m not really going to compromise on all that other stuff. The two things I am envious off are space and access to the wilderness.

Dutch American Friendship Treaty.

In what county do meters still look like that though? I see them here in the US, but back in my metric home country they certainly don’t look like iron age torture devices anymore.

I use it because I can use it to block ads. If a page doesn’t work, I’ll use chrome.

I actually use Chrome on Windows. I just dislike ads more than I like Chrome.
