I saw the popup just once, I updated most of the filters used by uBlockOrigin and I haven't seen it since.

How does that work in dating? If you are afraid of making people uncomfortable by asking them out, escalating things and putting them in situations where they have to say no to you, you may just end up being single for life.

"Arm" and "hand" are two very different things (I guess?), but they are the same word (рука) in Russian.

yeah, no way "food will be handed out for free" when you can make a profit by selling it; they'd rather throw it away (and they do) than give it away for free

What pisses me off is that some legitimate websites like project goutenberg are all blocked by my Internet provider in Italy and I have to go through a VPN to access them. Same for scribd, vdoc, libgen and so on.
