It so much easier to switch to tea.

No, sync with Google or Mozilla server as browser would.

It should auto synchronize with browser as another devixe, not just import export. Sync code in Chromium and Firefox is opensource ...
It is horrible idea, PayPal is payment provider, not some sort of morality police!

There is nothing better? Maybe it is just a bias, since you know all the quirks.

20 years ago I did my thesis in Word 2000 with some plugin for equations. It was far better than latex. I had to insert some hard page breaks, instead of learning completely new language!

Sun and sea :) And also price. Greece, Croatia, Turkey etc were bloody expensive this summer. Odessa is just 3 hours by bus from Chisinau that has regular flights.

I was in Odessa for holiday in July. Very cheap airbnb, but there was night lockdown and pubs were closing early. Also beaches were closed (mines) but nobody cared.

I rip movies from Russian version of Netflix. It is free and legal for personal use in my country. Tried a few other streaming services, but gave up after shady stuff and too many ads.
Home is not owned by employer. So for this type of surveillance employer should get consent from all inhabitants.
Just another reason to avoid university education! Why would anyone put themselfs into horrible debt, just to be abused to this sort of stuff? Education is free on internet!
Hospital has to make money somewhere! Procedures done on corpse are financing ER and other departments!
I don't think Phoronix has time and budget for that. It is a single man, a few scripts and heavy automation. Sometimes he founds bugs and reports it, but there is no time to follow such rabbit hole!

Been there, employee #12 in 2016 at startup that created one of top ten cryptocurrencies. Was not crypto nut, I worked in research, friend gave me a gig. Disposed all crypto assets a few months before 2017 peak, bcos wanted simple divorce. Friends were telling me to convert everything to coins and run into Thailand LOL.
