VPN sponsor spots are going to contain a lot of eyebrow wiggling with references to censored content

Except for when it is used to underhandedly sell consumers unrepairable laptops cause visible screws don't count as minimalistic

I don't know how to diy it on your pc, but on my steamdeck with the latest proton version most repackaged games work fine.

The Client appears to experience a timeout when connecting to sync. I am on the European Server, is anyone having the same issues on the NA Server?

I always thought music streaming services craft the song radio playlists carefully using algorithms that take song genre, beat and melody patterns, artist relations etc into consideration.

Well color me surpised when I quickly downloaded the song radio playlist of "Tunak Tunak Tun" by Daler Mehndi for a car trip and played it in the car.

The first song was ofc said indie indian pop song. The second one I was like, ok, a little different genre but ok??? (PPAP - Pen Pinapple Apple Pen).

By the third one I was confused. First "take on me" starts, I turn it up because what the heck, doesn't fit the theme at all but good song anyway, and then a twelve-year-old starts ear-raping me about mining minecraft diamonds:

It seems I was the last human to figure out those streaming services base the song radios on what other people group the song into playlists, not any method of paragraph one.

This was confirmed by the rest of the playlist makeup:

(Two other songs by Daler Mehndi)

Tri Ploski

Two songs with pewdipie

Both the russian and soviet national anthems (by the same artist, listed seperately)

7th element (twice, once english, once russian)

Axel F

The Angry Birds theme

Multiple common Youtube soundtracks

Etc, you get the picture.

This is when I understood that most Tidal listeners who have added this song to a playlist, have it in their meme playlist.

Go figure...

It does... it's called black paper. Affordable printers just don't have the right ink.

You can drive for 16 hours and still be in Texas, the european mind cannot comprehend this! <

Yeah because driving 16 hours straight is stupid because you would just take the train and be driven 16 hours straight.

Car centric infrastructure should have never been introduced.

If he actually goes I want to see at least 3 different " the logistics of the Trump imprisonement", "How to imprison a US president" etc. Youtube videos. They they should be at minimum half an hour long.

Ok now that my demands are out there you can go and arrest him already.
