Does Lutris require some special setup?

Using fitgirl repacks are a bit hit and miss for me. But if they don't work, Lutris doesn't help.

I haven't seen such warnings for years anymore

Of course, but how often would you go to a coffee place? If you work in an office, coffee is usually free anyways.

As a poor European:

Coders saying "but me a cup of coffee" for $8.

I buy a pack of coffee of 250g for β‰ˆ $3. An average cup, according to Google, is 7.5g.

That's $0.40 for a cup.

(Or about 9 beers)

I really doubt that.

Czechia. In many supermarkets "discounts" only apply when you have a card/app. Essentially the "discount" is normal price, otherwise you'll pay nearly double.

I'm using fake names on all those things, but prices without loyalty are often insane. It's basically an extra tourist tax.

I rarely use cash. Nearly everything I spend is on supermarket and they know exactly what I buy because we're forced to use their "loyalty" programs anyway.

Then traveling: dealing with other currencies, coming home with unspendable money. And there's no interest on cash lying around.

But I hate the tendency for places to not accept cash at all, there should still be a choice.

One bonus is that I keep finding money on the streets in countries that love cash.

I haven't used it in a while but Aeroinsta was good and probably safe (despite their shady website). Gets rid of unnecessary stuff like ads and allows downloading.

Depends where you go. My Czech bank card is a debit card with a number on it that you can use like a credit card. Dutch banks don't have this and we use different online payment methods. I never really needed a credit card for anything (until I traveled in France) so the price to have one is not worth it.

You're not supporting development, you're supporting a rich guy getting richer:

Interesting to note that the Mozilla CEO earned nearly as much ($5.6 M) as Mozilla received in donations ($7 M).
