So that’s where Andrew Tate went to after his release.
- Comment on The term literally means "exactly figuratively" 4 months ago:
I have a simple trick how to distinguish both:
Figurative means Figurative. Literally means literally.
You’re welcome.

So you neither pay with money nor by watching ads for a very expensive to maintain service, but you won’t leave it be either.
I know I’m making myself Unpopular here, but what is it that you’re bringing to the table? Currently you cost YouTube money because streaming video is really expensive. You block out all the ads so every creator is cut off monetization too. This is not a publicly funded library (yet).

When you say that it sounds like a bad thing. I’m hopping from service to service too.
I don’t get why people think they can have 15 streaming services for the price of one, and get served the $100 million movie of the day.

Some of the puzzles are fun though and the tutorials are disguised well.
- Comment on 'It hasn't delivered': The spectacular failure of self-checkout technology 10 months ago:
Self-checkout and self-scanning are great when done right.
