Where do you live? That's certainly not my experience in the Netherlands. Of course we have expensive health care because our center right government believed in privatizing everything, but it's still way better than the US. Source: born American, currently Dutch.

I shouldn't feed the troll, but....
Why are vertical videos bad?
This was my first thought. I guess if you're replacing a coal plant it's not completely terrible, but be prepared to turn it off in 10 or 20 years.
For popular stuff I stop seeding when I've uploaded 10x the download size. For other stuff I keep it uploading forever.
I just spent a week in Texas in places that had plenty of people living and presumably working close together. The infrastructure is a hellscape of concrete and asphalt and monstrous pickup trucks. It has nothing to do with being a big country and everything to do with culture and policies.
i2p is a bit like Tor. Both are overlay networks, meaning that they use the "normal" Internet as their lowest layer. They use similar method of obfuscation using multiple hops.
i2p doesn't rely on special nodes, I think, which Tor does. i2p also does not connect to the "normal" Internet (basically).
Like with Tor there is no need for a VPN (or rather, little need for a VPN... probably both i2p and Tor are safer than any VPN, but nothing is 100% safe, so some people use double VPN, or Tor over a VPN).
Tor is not designed for torrenting. It assumes TCP connections - mostly for web stuff - and doesn't handle torrent well. They also don't want you bogging down the system with your filthy porn. 😆
i2p solves this by forcing you to send data for other users in order to download anything. This helps make your traffic harder to track and helps the overall network. It also means that downloads are slow. Very slow. Like, basically start your download and come back in a day or two. Not a problem if you have four or five downloads in progress, but it makes spontaneous watching impossible.
Anyway, I'm hardly an expert but this is my understanding!
Many were shot in Spain! The Wikipedia link also notes some were shot in Italy, and one in Israel.
The answer to your question is literally on the link I posted. The reason that I posted the link was both to cite a source, and also to provide further information for anyone curious about it. If the future, please go ahead and just click a link when someone provides it!
Most spaghetti Westerns filmed between 1964 and 1978 were made on low budgets, and shot at Cinecittà studios and various locations around southern Italy and Spain.[12] Many of the stories take place in the dry landscapes of the American Southwest and Northern Mexico, thus, common filming locations were the Tabernas Desert and the Cabo de Gata-Níjar Natural Park, an area of volcanic origin known for its wide sandy beaches, both of which are in the Province of Almería in Southeastern Spain. Some sets and studios built for spaghetti Westerns survived as theme parks, such as Texas Hollywood, Mini Hollywood, and Western Leone, and continue to be used as film sets.[13] Other filming locations used were in central and southern Italy, such as the parks of Valle del Treja (between Rome and Viterbo), the area of Camposecco (next to Camerata Nuova, characterized by a karst topography), the hills around Castelluccio, the area around the Gran Sasso mountain, and the Tivoli's quarries and Sardinia. God's Gun was filmed in Israel.[14]
Spaghetti westerns were called spaghetti westerns because the directors were Italian:
People tend to hire people that they like. You don't really know who is best for a job unless you've hired multiple people and they have been working for a while.
Having employees who happen to have the same background as hiring managers is not the same as having the best employees, but that's what we have.
If you'd had DEI training you'd know this. 😉
I don't watch a lot of TV so it's enough for me. Although to be honest if my partner ever gets smart and leaves me I'll drop all streaming and just use i2p. 😆
Haha okay that explains it. The UK counts as Europe about as much as Turkey or Russia does... which is to say yes you're on the same continental plate, but beyond that...
Anyway, your government has been aggressively underfunding the NHS for ages. It's hardly a surprise if it's shit.
