ohhh, so a slightly different thing that is basically like a regular debit card account, but a bit more predatory? Got it. Ewww

You say this as if Granny doesn't have tea and crumpets with the person who can sell her that tiny house every saturday. If she wants to downsize affordably, she should take it up with her 'Golden Age Bookclub' buddies who own all the other houses in town...

It's fine, the repacks generally tick up the CPU and RAM a lot. It's just extracting things faster than if it didn't use that many resources. You only really have to worry if the extraction process halts for unreasonably long (over an hour or smth), then you may have a system issue (not the repack's fault).

Most prepaid cards such as prepaid visas can be checked for free on the site, no? That has been my experience anyway...

Mcdonald's now owes all of those people a job position, imo.

If you can afford a second home, you can afford to pay a bit more tax on it to benefit the public good.

This part applies. It's not about directly getting a house for the homeless in this case, it's the fact that they can CLEARLY afford to pay more tax.

Oh ok, if that's what it was actually about, I get disliking the format/channel. But I completely agree with you about not downvoting a relevant post.

It would appear that people hate criticism of Apple on this platform, based off of the downvotes. I am slightly surprised at that tbh. And I additionally beleive that just makes the point in the video about Apples "holier than thou" mentality more evidently true.

Folks, they are just another Corpo, please stop simping for them because they promised you the world. It's all just sweet nothings and the evidence consistantly shows that.

Thx, fixed that now!

That's why I suggested trusted vpn companies. Proton keeps no logs, so they couldn't hand it over if even they wanted to. I also suggested VPN as opposed to TOR because TOR can be fiddly*, and complicated because of that to a non-techy person (which is what this person had said they were). The speeds of TOR are also not good for streaming.

I beleive this is where dbzer0 would come in... So basically, you are going to want a VPN first, which they are pretty easy to get and use and there are plenty of resources online, I would suggest going for a trusted one such as Proton VPN or Nord VPN. Then as for how to actually get movies/shows, you are going to want to install firefox (if you don't have it) and then add the 'ublock' extention to block popups and other nasty things. Then once you have that, you can check out the sites in our megathread, they are safe and trusted: https://rentry.co/megathread-movies-and-tv . Let me know if you need more help. :)
