If you're against what I don't like, you're authentic and fighting the good fight. If you support what I don't like, you're receiving paychecks from other governments. Yeah right.

All extensions are open source. Just download the xpi/crx and decompress. Doesn't help much unless you are willing to read all diffs, or never update them (and be exposed to bugs which could lead to other security issues.)

Yes, you're saying that suicide rates for blacks are lower because they are killed by means that aren't seen as suicide at a higher rate. That's a statistic. Please back it.

Same here in Spain. I mean, let's be honest, it's just a chat application. It is almost trivial to build and maintain. And since it uses your phone number, there is no friction to switch to another app--if they decided to charge f

Nobody actually paid for WhatsApp. At least, nobody I know off. They supposedly required you to pay 1€ a year after the first year, but everybody kept using it for free forever. I'd say they never made any money.

I want to learn a language but I don't think I'll be using it with anybody anytime soon. But I'd be happy to understand a newspaper or Wikipedia. What would be the recommended way to learn vocabulary if Anki is not an option?

If you own a business, you give your redirect, expensive number to clients you don't care much about so they don't call bitching about stuff (quality of whatever you sell, etc) and then you give your direct, free number to clients
