What's the point of this trash? The original is way funnier

Aaahhh fuck. Guess I'll have to either get an illegal version or find a method to jailbreak it next time I upgrade my pc. Unfortunately Linux is not an option.

Been a solid messaging app for the past couple years I've been using it. Unlike Whatsapp, it's much easier to control its notifications and media shared

She was previously sued by Florida reggae band Artikal Sound System, who claimed Lipa ripped off the chorus for her song from their 2015 track Live Your Life.

Their case was dropped in 2023 after a judge ruled there was no evidence that Lipa and her co-writers had "access" to the earlier song - a key requirement in any copyright lawsuit.

I never heard any of these and wasn't even sure which song Levitating was so I went and listened to all. The wiggle one, I agree with the judge. But the chorus sounds exactly like Live Your Life. Now that's a ripoff. What amazes me is that you can get away with this saying "no your honor I never heard of this song before and there is no evidence of me ever listening to it". That's outrageous. Especially in this day and age where you can listen to music from a million platforms and devices. It's on YouTube - can you make it more accessible than that??

Wait, what? I don't get it... Why would one switch just for cooking

I had similar results to you. In my case the deal breaker was navigation, because I need to be able to make changes to the route on the fly which these apps don't allow. In fact, you need to tap like ten times through menus to finish a trip and search for something else.

I see what you did there

Uses metric system, that's one point in his favor

Let's hope not, for either

The first phrase is true.

The second, I'm not sure. Some really talented artists have worked in advertisements for a long time, and many of their works are celebrated internationally. Alphonse Mucha is one name that quickly comes to mind - tell me his advertisement work isn't art. You have probably seen more amateur ripoffs of his style in your life than the real deal.
