  Avalon works fine for me, and was updated just a couple of days ago. Voyager works good as well, though not as frequently updated lately.

  Well, that was basically the top-post when this was introduced to New York City as well. It does not seem like it has been much of a problem.

  Libgen is such an amazing resource

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What hobbies did you pick up during the pandemic and have you been able to keep them up?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Programming.

  I don’t do it as much as a hobby anymore. But that’s because I switched careers and do it all day for work nowadays!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Tony Blair says junk food should be made too expensive for the poor to afford through new sugar and salt taxes to tackle obesity⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  Obviously.

  Living at a hotel is also cheaper than an apartment if we consider the cost of rent, a bed, electricity, water and etc.

  But living at a hotel is obviously not cheaper than renting an apartment. Perhaps for a couple of days, but long term it will get much more expensive.

  As with fast food.

  I mean it really doesn’t. There’s literally no fast food you can’t do cheaper at home. Sure, you might have to pay a bit more, but you’ll then have at least twice the amount of food.

  His wording means it should increase 40-50%. Not that it should be 40-50%.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨How did Android's update support become so inconsistent?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  I mean an iPad mini 2 would obviously struggle with iOS today due to hardware limitations.

  And you’re very much free to use it, problem is app developers do not find it worthwhile their time supporting older devices as so few use them and it impacts what they can and cannot do. Thus it becomes unusable.

  But all Apple apps will obviously still work.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What show took you the longest to get into?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨year⁩ ago⁩:

  The wire. Think I started season 1 about 5 times. Then I stuck it out. Hands down the best show I’ve seen.

  Ridiculous. My alt has already become my main due to the outages. Now I’m never going back.
