We should call this era the Great Suppression.

You can’t use a torrent client via TOR.

This was about $4 USD in Ho Chi Minh City back in 2023. Looked much nicer than almost anywhere I’ve had in the US and tasted better too. Of course, you could get a special banh mi for half that price almost anywhere in the city.

I’m at a loss.

I can’t believe gas is over $2 a gallon now.
